Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ وَسُرَيْجٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ كَانَ النَّاسُ يَقُولُونَ يَثْرِبَ وَالْمَدِينَةَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى سَمَّاهَا طَابَةَ قَالَ سُرَيْجٌ يَثْرِبُ الْمَدِينَةُ.
English Translation
Bahz and Surayj told us, they said: Hammad ibn Salamah told us, from Simak, from Jabir ibn Samurah, who said: The people used to say "Yathrib" and "al-Madinah," so the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Allah, blessed and exalted is He, named it Tabah." Surayj said: Yathrib is al-Madinah.
