Yahnas, who was the freed slave of Sayyiduna Zubair bin Al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him), narrates: I was sitting with Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), when one of his slave girls came and said: I want to leave Madinah, O Abu Abdur-Rahman! Because there are hardships here. And it was a time of turmoil in Madinah (Yazid bin Muawiyah had troubled the people there and caused tribulation). Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Sit down, unworthy one! I have heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that he used to say:“Whoever is patient over the hardships and difficulties of Madinah, I will be his witness or intercessor on the Day of Resurrection.”
