“
The City of Madina itself becomes sacred. Everything he (the Prophet) touched, every little place he went, every palm tree he touched, the mount Uhud - everything has a particular magnetism about it. And Imam Maliks Madhab is based on that sense of sanctity of the city of Madina. It's not purely a legallstig concept, it's a sacred concept: the holiness of the City.
