Love For Madinah
The dates of Madinah and their positive impact on a person’s faith
Mawlana Sardār Aḥmad رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه, the renowned hadith master of Pakistan, had great love for Madinah. Description and mention of this blessed city would often be heard in his gatherings. If he came across someone who had returned from there, he would ask them about it and inquire after the wellbeing of its residents. If someone presented him with a gift from Madinah, he would accept it with immense happiness.
On one occasion, a person came to him having just returned from ḥajj and gave him dates from Madinah as a gift. He was teaching hadith at the time, so he distributed the dates amongst his students and pressed one between his back teeth. He then declared, “These dates will invigorate your faith as long as they remain in your body.”[1]
سُبْحٰنَ اللہ Whoever loves Madinah has their faith refreshed and rejuvenated by simply hearing mention of that blessed city. For them, their faith is revived by just seeing something that has come from Madinah or eating dates from thereupon.
Imagine then the blossoming, soaring, and splendid condition of their faith, when they physically visit Madinah itself.
Dear Islamic brothers! May Allah grant us true love for Madinah! Thinking of this city should leave us yearning to visit it. The importance and magnificence of this city can be gleaned from this hadith of the final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, in which he said, “Whoever is able to die in Madinah should so do. Indeed, I shall intercede for the people of Madinah.”[2]
