باب بيان أن الإسلام بدأ غريبا وسيعود غريبا وأنه يأرز بين المسجدينChapter: Islam Began as Something Strange and Will Return as Strange; It Will Withdraw Between the Two Mosques
Hadith 89

89 صحيح حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ: إِنَّ الإِيمَانَ لَيَأْرِزُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ كَمَا تَأْرِزُ الْحَيَّةُ إِلَى جُحْرِهَا
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (Near the Day of Judgment) faith will withdraw to Madinah just as a snake withdraws into its hole.
Brief Explanation
That is, just as a snake comes out of its hole or burrow and seeks sustenance for its life, then when someone sees it, it returns to its burrow and coils up, in the same way, faith (iman) spread and dispersed from Madinah. Thus, every believer’s soul draws him towards Madinah due to the love for its people, because the Noble Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) had love for the people of Madinah. (Murattib rahimahullah)
