Sahih Muslim 1384 (Book 15, Hadith 560) #10495
The Purifying Power of Medina

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of Medina and how it purifies people just like fire purifies silver.

Zaid b. Thabit reported Allah's Apostle as saying: It is Taiba, thereby meaning Medina. It drives away impurity just as fire removes the impurity of silver.
وَحَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، - وَهُوَ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَدِيٍّ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ ثَابِتٍ - سَمِعَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّهَا طَيْبَةُ - يَعْنِي الْمَدِينَةَ - وَإِنَّهَا تَنْفِي الْخَبَثَ كَمَا تَنْفِي النَّارُ خَبَثَ الْفِضَّةِ‏"‏
