Sahih al-Bukhari 3880 (Book 64, Hadith 96)
The companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) were divided into two groups. One group said, “We will fight them
(i.e. the enemy),” and the other group said, “We will not fight them.” So there came the Divine
Revelation:– ‘(O Muslims!) Then what is the matter within you that you are divided. Into two parties
about the hypocrites? Allah has cast them back (to disbelief) Because of what they have earned.’
(4.88) On that, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “That is Taiba (i.e. the city of Medina) which clears one from one’s
sins as the fire expels the impurities of silver.”
Sahih al-Bukhari 3880 (Book 64, Hadith 96)
The above hadith is from the Sahih al-Buhari collection of hadiths. Within the Islamic scholarly tradition, few works hold as much weight as Sahih al-Bukhari. This vast compilation, assembled by the Persian scholar al-Bukhārī circa 847, is a cornerstone of Sunni faith and practice. It is one of the six canonical hadith collections known collectively as the Kutub al-Sittah. Imam al-Bukhārī’s work is particularly celebrated for its author’s stringent criteria in verifying the chain of narration (isnad), resulting in a trusted body of over 7,500 hadiths organized into 97 distinct chapters that cover every aspect of life.
