Narated By Anas: The Prophet came to Medina and ordered a mosque to be built and said, “O
Bani Najjar! Suggest to me the price (of your land).” They said, “We do not want its price except

life. That man will say, ‘Now I know your reality better than before.’ Ad-Dajjal will say, ‘I want to

to me!” The Prophet said, “O Allah! Curse Shaiba bin Rabi’a and ‘Utba bin Rabi’a and Umaiya
bin Khalaf as they turned us out of our land to the land of epidemics.” Allah’s Apostle then said,

blessings in our Sa and our Mudd (measures symbolizing food) and make the climate of Medina
suitable for us, and divert its fever towards Aljuhfa.” ‘Aisha added: When we reached Medina, it
