Medina is like a furnace

Jabir رضي الله عنه reported: A bedouin came to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and gave the pledge of allegiance for embracing Islam. The next day he came with a fever and said, “Please cancel my pledge.” The Prophet refused three times and he said, “Medina is like a furnace; it expels its impurities and collects what is pure.”

[Sahih Bukhari, Volume 3, Book 30, Number 107]

عَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَبَايَعَهُ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ، فَجَاءَ مِنَ الْغَدِ مَحْمُومًا، فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي، فَأَبَى ثَلاَثَ مِرَارٍ، فَقَالَ: الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ، تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا، وَيَنْصَعُ طَيِّبُهَا
