    وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ هِجْرَةٌ بَعْدَ هِجْرَةٍ فَخِيَارُ النَّاسِ إِلَى مُهَاجَرِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ» . وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ: «فَخِيَارُ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ أَلْزَمُهُمْ مُهَاجَرَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَيَبْقَى فِي الْأَرْضِ شِرَارُ أَهْلِهَا تَلْفِظُهُمْ أَرَضُوهُمْ تَقْذَرُهُمْ نَفْسُ الله تَحْشُرهُمْ النَّارُ مَعَ الْقِرَدَةِ وَالْخَنَازِيرِ تَبِيتُ مَعَهُمْ إِذَا بَاتُوا وَتَقِيلُ مَعَهُمْ إِذَا قَالُوا» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

    `Abdallah b. `Amr b. al-`As told that he heard God’s messenger say, “There will be emigration after emigration, and the people who are best will be those who go to the places to which Abraham emigrated.” A version has “The best people on the earth are those who cleave most closely to the places to which Abraham emigrated. The worst of its people will remain in the earth, cast out by their lands, abhorred by God, collected along with apes and swine by fire[*] which will spend the night and midday where they are in their company.” *This is explained as the fire of civil strife. Cf. Mirqat , v. 652 AbuDawud transmitted it.

    عَن ابْنِ حَوَالَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسلم: «سيصير الْأَمر إِلَى أَنْ تَكُونُوا جُنُودًا مُجَنَّدَةً جُنْدٌ بِالشَّامِ وَجُنْدٌ بِالْيَمَنِ وَجُنْدٌ بِالْعِرَاقِ» . فَقَالَ ابْنُ حَوَالَةَ: خِرْ لِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ. إِنْ أَدْرَكْتُ ذَلِكَ. فَقَالَ: «عَلَيْك بِالشَّامِ فَإِنَّهَا خِيَرَةُ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَرْضِهِ يَجْتَبِي إِلَيْهَا خِيَرَتَهُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ فَأَمَّا إِنْ أَبَيْتُمْ فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِيَمَنِكُمْ وَاسْقُوا مِنْ غُدَرِكُمْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَوَكَّلَ لِي بِالشَّامِ وَأَهْلِهِ» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَأَبُو دَاوُد

    Ibn Hawala reported God’s messenger as saying, “It will turn out tha t you will be armed troops, one in Syria, one in the Yemen, and one in al-`Iraq.” Ibn Hawala said, “Choose for me, messenger of God, if I reach that time.” He replied, “Go to Syria, for it is God’s chosen land to which His best servants will be gathered; but if you are unwilling, go to your Yemen and draw water from your tanks, for God who is great and glorious has on my account taken special charge of Syria and its people.” Ahmad and Abu Dawud transmitted it.

    عَنْ شُرَيْحِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ قَالَ: ذُكِرَ أَهْلُ الشَّام عِنْد عليٍّ [رَضِي الله عَنهُ] وَقِيلَ الْعَنْهُمْ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَ: لَا أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «الْأَبْدَالُ يَكُونُونَ بِالشَّامِ وَهُمْ أَرْبَعُونَ رَجُلًا كُلَّمَا مَاتَ رَجُلٌ أَبْدَلَ اللَّهُ مَكَانَهُ رَجُلًا يُسْقَى بِهِمُ الْغَيْثُ وَيُنْتَصَرُ بِهِمْ عَلَى الأعداءِ وَيصرف عَن أهل الشَّام بهم الْعَذَاب» وَعَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الصَّحَابَةِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ” سَتُفْتَحُ الشَّامُ فإِذا خُيِّرْتم المنازلَ فِيهَا فَعَلَيْكُم بِمَدِينَة يُقَال لَهُ دِمَشْقُ فَإِنَّهَا مَعْقِلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مِنَ الْمَلَاحِمِ وَفُسْطَاطُهَا مِنْهَا أَرْضٌ يُقَالُ لَهَا: الْغُوطَةُ “. رَوَاهُمَا أَحْمَدُ

    Shuraih b. `Ubaid told that when the people of Syria were mentioned in `Ali’s presence and someone said, “Curse them, commander of the faithful,” he refused, saying he had heard God’s messenger say, “The substitutes[*], a body of forty men, will be in Syria, and as often as one dies God will put another in his place. By virtue of them rain will be provided, by virtue of them help will be sought against enemies, and by virtue of them affliction will be averted from the Syrians.” One of the Companions reported God’s messenger as saying, “Syria will be conquered, and when you are given your choice of places in which to settle go on a city called Damascus, for it will be the fortress of the Muslims to protect them in the wars during which it will be a place of assembly. In its neighbourhood there is some land called al-Ghuta.” * al-abdal . These belong to one of the degrees of the Sufi hierarchy of saints. There are different views as to their number. This tradition would seem to support the view which holds that there are 70. forty in Syria and thirty elsewhere. They presumably get their title because every vacancy in their number is immediately filled. Ahmad transmitted the two traditions.

    Ibn `Umar reported God’s messenger as saying, “Your appointed period in relation to that of peoples who have passed away is just the time between the afternoon prayer and sunset. A comparison between you and the Jews and Christians is like a man who employed labourers and said, `Who will work for me till midday for a qirat each?’ The Jews worked till midday for a qirat each, and then he said, `Who will work for me from midday till the afternoon prayer for a qirat each?’ The Christians worked from midday till the afternoon prayer for a qirat each, and then he said, `Who will work for me from the afternoon prayer till sunset for two qirat each?’ I assure you that you are the ones who work from the afternoon prayer till sunset and that you will have the reward twice over. The Jews and Christians were angry and said, `We have done more work and received less pay,’ but God most high asked, `Have I wronged you in any respect regarding what was due to you?’ When they admitted that He had not, God most high said, `It is my extra favour which I grant to whomsoever I will.’” Bukhari transmitted it.
