Hadith 17272

حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجٌ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا فُلَيْحٌ ، عَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، قَالَ : خَطَبَ مَرْوَانُ النَّاسَ ، فَذَكَرَ مَكَّةَ وَحُرْمَتَهَا ، فَنَادَاهُ رَافِعُ بْنُ خَدِيجٍ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ مَكَّةَ إِنْ تَكُنْ حَرَمًا ، فَإِنَّ الْمَدِينَةَ حَرَمٌ حَرَّمَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَهُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ عِنْدَنَا فِي أَدِيمٍ خَوْلَانِيٍّ ، إِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْ نُقْرِئَكَهُ فَعَلْنَا ، فَنَادَاهُ مَرْوَانُ : أَجَلْ قَدْ بَلَغَنَا ذَلِكَ .
Nafi' bin Jubair (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once Marwan, while delivering a sermon, mentioned before the people about Makkah Mukarramah and its being a sanctuary (Haram). So Hazrat Rafi' bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) called out and said: If Makkah Mukarramah is a sanctuary, then Madinah Munawwarah is also a sanctuary, which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) declared as a sanctuary, and this statement is written with us on leather. If you wish, we can read this text to you. Marwan said: That is fine, this matter has also reached us.
