I want all the hadiths that speak about Egypt, and who narrated them?
Diverse hadiths have been narrated concerning Egypt, some of which are authentic, while others are weak or fabricated. Among the authentic hadiths are: the recommendation to treat its people well and show them mercy; that they will be a support for Muslims; that Egypt will withhold its tribute (kharaj) at the end of time; and that the Nile is one of the rivers of Paradise. As for the weak and fabricated hadiths, they include: Giza being a garden from the gardens of Paradise; Egypt being the quiver (kinanah) of Allah; its soldiers being the best soldiers on earth; the blessing of Banha honey; the story of throwing a card into the Nile; and Egypt being the purest land in terms of soil and the noblest of non-Arabs in lineage.
