بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي تَحْرِيمِ الْمَدِينَةِWhat is reported about the sanctity of Madinah
Hadith 1605
وَحَدَّثَنِي وَحَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ رَجُلٍ ، قَالَ : دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَأَنَا بِالْأَسْوَافِ " قَدْ اصْطَدْتُ نُهَسًا، فَأَخَذَهُ مِنْ يَدِي فَأَرْسَلَهُ "
It is narrated from a person (Sharjeel bin Sa’d) that Sayyiduna Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) came to me while I was in Aswaaf (a place on the outskirts of Madinah), and I had hunted a bird. He took it from my hand and set it free.
