It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution and prayed near the water reservoir in the land of Hazrat Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) at Harrah. Then he said: O Allah! Your friend, servant, and prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him) prayed to You for the people of Makkah, and I, Your servant, prophet, and messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), am praying to You for the people of Madinah in the same way: so grant blessings in their Sa’ and Mudd (measures) and fruits. O Allah! Make Madinah as beloved to us in our hearts as You have made Makkah beloved to us, and transfer its diseases to“Khumm.”O Allah! I declare the area between the two boundaries of Madinah as sacred, just as You declared Makkah sacred through the words of Ibrahim (peace be upon him).
