بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي سُكْنَى الْمَدِينَةِ وَالْخُرُوجِ مِنْهَاChapter on what is reported regarding living in Madinah and leaving it
Hadith 1600
وَحَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ ابْنِ حِمَاسٍ ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " لَتُتْرَكَنَّ الْمَدِينَةُ عَلَى أَحْسَنِ مَا كَانَتْ، حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ الْكَلْبُ أَوِ الذِّئْبُ فَيُغَذِّي عَلَى بَعْضِ سَوَارِي الْمَسْجِدِ أَوْ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ "، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، فَلِمَنْ تَكُونُ الثِّمَارُ ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانَ ؟ قَالَ : " لِلْعَوَافِي : الطَّيْرِ وَالسِّبَاعِ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Surely, you will leave Madinah in a good state until a time will come when a dog or a wolf will come and urinate on the pillars of the mosque or on the pulpit." The companions asked: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Who will eat the fruits of Madinah at that time?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "The hungry animals—birds and beasts."
