عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ”فُسْطَاطُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَوْمَ الْمَلْحَمَةِ الْغُوطَةُ إِلَى جَانِبِ مَدِينَةٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا دِمَشْقُ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: During the days of bloody battles, a place called Ghouta, located in the outskirts of Damascus, will be like a tent for the Muslims.
