It is the city of light and divine graces. In this city, rewards for good deeds are multiple. The angels guard the city of the prophet, peace &amp; blessings be upon him, day and night. Dajj\u0101l, the Anti-Christ, his dismay, and plague cannot enter Mad\u012bnah. Doubtlessly, the person who dies in Mad\u012bnah, s\/h will meet the intercession of the prophet M\u016bhammad, peace be upon him.<br \/>\n<strong>Jewish clans in Mad\u012bnah<\/strong>: According to some sources of history, before the settlement of Jews and the two tribes of A\u016bs and Khazraj, Iml\u0101q tribes used to live in the town. The Jewish tribes of Ban\u016b-Q\u016braydha, Ban\u016b-Nadheer and Ban\u016b-Qayn\u016bq\u0101 migrated to Mad\u012bnah after the crackdown of B\u016bkht Nasr or Nebuchadnezzar on Jews in 576 BC. The survivorsselected \u2018Aw\u0101li\u2019 town for habitationin the suburb ofMad\u012bnah; they believed the Last Prophet would migrate from Haram, the holy place, to a palm-plantation land that is located between black stones. They had chosen Mad\u012bnah for habitation in order to accept the call of the Last Messenger of All\u0101h and seek refuge in that city. In 70 AD and 132 AD, some more Jewish tribes migrated to Mad\u012bnah.<br \/>\n<strong>A\u016bs&amp; Khazraj:\u00a0<\/strong>Following the collapse of \u2018Mareb\u2019 dam in Yemen, residents of the region immigrated tovarious towns and countries; A\u016bs and Khazraj preferred Mad\u012bnah for dwelling.The famous tribes, A\u016bs and Khazraj, settled in different parts of Mad\u012bnah; they became well-off as they built many castles. But then they engaged in domestic conflicts which are known as \u2018Bi\u0101th\u2019 (emission) in the history of Hejaz. The two tribes were busy in their mutual fights until the light of Islam directed them to the straight path. All\u0101h Almighty resolved their disputes by the great blessing of Islam.<br \/>\n<strong>Islam in Mad\u012bnah<\/strong>: When some men of the Khazraj tribe travelled to Makkah, the Last Prophet, peace be upon him, invited them to Islam. They embraced Islam and returned to their homeland as preachers of Islam. The light of Islam entered many homes in Mad\u012bnah. By the next year, 12 residents of Mad\u012bnahtook part in the pledge (Bai\u2019ah) with the prophet, peace be upon him. Later on, the prophet of mercy dispatched M\u016bs\u0101b bin Umair to Mad\u012bnah for teaching the noble Qur\u2019\u0101n and other religious rituals. Islam became the predominant religion in Mad\u012bnah and Muslims got power. Then M\u016bs\u0101b, may All\u0101h be pleased with him, went back to Makkah. In the second pledge, Bai\u2019ah, 70 men and 2 women of Ans\u0101r took part in the pledge with the Last Prophet, peace be upon him. He migrated to Mad\u012bnah on Monday, Rab\u012b-ul-Awwal 12 in the 13th year of his prophecy, May 16, 634 AD. Since that day, \u2018Yathrib\u2019 changed its name to Mad\u012bnah. By settlement of the prophet in Mad\u012bnah, the city got a new birth.<\/p>\n<p><em>By DrHussein Taji<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Source: <em><strong>Neday Islam Magazine<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All Muslims love Mad\u012bnah, the city of prophet M\u016bhammad, peace be upon him, wholeheartedly.
