Chapter 3: Residing in Madina and Leaving It

Muwatta Malik 1730

Malik related to me from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No one leaves Madina preferring to live elsewhere, but that Allah will give it better than him in place of him ."
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَخْرُجُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ رَغْبَةً عَنْهَا إِلاَّ أَبْدَلَهَا اللَّهُ خَيْرًا مِنْهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏
