Blessed Madina

Narrated Anas bin Malik (radi Allahu anhu): “The mountain of Uhud came in sight of Allah’s Messenger (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) who then said, ‘This is a mountain that loves us and is loved by us. O Allah! Ibraheen made Makkah a sanctuary and I make the area between its (Al-Madina’s) two mountains a sanctuary.’” [Holding Fast to the Quran and the Sunnah: Sahih Bukhari]

Madina Munawwara is a blessed place indeed. It is a place of peace. It is one of only three places that Dajjal will not be able to enter during his 40 days on earth. Dajjal, the antichrist, will try to enter it to take it over and make its people apostasize, as he will attempt everywhere else on earth. But on every road leading into Madina he will find an angel with a sword protecting Madina and blocking his entry into it.
