Sayyiduna al-Bara' bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever calls Madinah 'Yathrib' should seek forgiveness from Allah Almighty. It is 'Tabah', it is 'Tabah'."
Ahmad and Abu Ya'la recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
