When there comes to you a document from the East that will be read out to you as: From the slave of Allah, Abdullah, Amir al-Mumineen (Prince of the Faithful Believers), then await another document coming to you from the West that will be read out to you as: From the slave of Allah, Abd-Rahman, Amir al-Mumineen (Prince of the Faithful Believers). Then, by He (God) in whose hand is Huzayfas soul, you will fight them near Al-Qantarah, and they will expel you far, far away from the land of Egypt and the land of AshSham, and an Arabian woman will be sold at the stairs of Damascus for twenty-five dirhams. (Nuaim bin Hammad, Kitab al-Fitan, No. 52) Abdullah ibn Hawalah said: The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: Matters will run their course until you become three armies: an army in AshSham (Syria), an army in Iraq, and an army in the Yemen. I said: O Messenger of Allah, which one I should join ? He said: You should go to AshSham, for it is the best of Allahs lands, and the best of His servants will be drawn to there. If you do not (go to AshSham), go to the Yemen and drink from its wells. For Allah has guaranteed me that He will look after AshSham and its people. (Abu Dawud)
