Question:
The questioner asks: Is the prohibition of Makkah and Madinah the same, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): “O Allah, I have made … prohibited?”
Answer:
The one who made it prohibited.Sahih al-Bukhari 2893. Yes, there is no doubt that the sanctity of Madinah is like the sanctity of Makkah, because Ibrahim made Makkah sacred, and Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) made Madinah sacred. So their sanctity is the same in terms of the general ruling. As for the specific rulings, the rulings differ; the rulings of the sanctuary of Makkah differ from the rulings of the sanctuary of Madinah. But in terms of the general ruling, they are the same; both are sanctuaries that Allah and His Messenger have made sacred.
