7216. Narrated Jābir: A bedouin came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Please take my Bai'a (pledge) for Islām." So the Prophet ﷺ took from him the Bai'a for Islām. He came the next day with a fever and said to the Prophet ﷺ, "Cancel my pledge." But the Prophet ﷺ refused. And when the bedouin went away, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Al-Madina is like a pair of bellows (furnace). It cleanses its impurities and brightens and clears its good." =children belonging to their husbands), and that they will not disobey you in any Ma'rūf (Islāmic Monotheism and all that Islām ordains), then accept their Bai'a (pledge), and ask Allāh to forgive them. Verily Allāh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (V.60:12).
