حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ سَتُفْتَحُ عَلَيْكُمْ الشَّامُ فَإِذَا خُيِّرْتُمْ الْمَنَازِلَ فِيهَا فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِمَدِينَةٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا دِمَشْقُ فَإِنَّهَا مَعْقِلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مِنْ الْمَلَاحِمِ وَفُسْطَاطُهَا مِنْهَا بِأَرْضٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا الْغُوطَةُ.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
Abu al-Yaman told us, Abu Bakr — meaning Ibn Abi Maryam — told us, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Jubayr ibn Nufayr, from his father, who said: A man among the Companions of Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, told us that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Syria will be opened to you, and when you are given a choice of dwellings in it, choose a city called Damascus, for it is a stronghold for the Muslims against the great battles, and its garrison camp is in a land called al-Ghutah.
