5ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْكُوفِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) إِنَّ مَكَّةَ حَرَمُ الله حَرَّمَهَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) وَإِنَّ الْمَدِينَةَ حَرَمِي مَا بَيْنَ لابَتَيْهَا حَرَمٌ لا يُعْضَدُ شَجَرُهَا وَهُوَ مَا بَيْنَ ظِلِّ عَائِرٍ إِلَى ظِلِّ وُعَيْرٍ وَلَيْسَ صَيْدُهَا كَصَيْدِ مَكَّةَ يُؤْكَلُ هَذَا وَلا يُؤْكَلُ ذَلِكَ وَهُوَ بَرِيدٌ.
5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and Muhammad ibn Isma‘il from af-Fadf ibn Shadhan from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil ibn Darraj who has said the following: “I once heard abu ‘ Abd Allah عليه السلام, say, ‘The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, “Whoever causes a Hadath in al-Madinah or gives protection to one who causes a Hadath therein is condemned by Allah.’ I then asked, ‘What is a Hadath?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘It is murder.’”
