Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) states: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Once, while I was sleeping, angels came to me and took the pillar of the Book from beneath my pillow, and carried it off towards Syria (al-Sham). Behold! When the tribulations occur, faith will be in Syria."
Ahmad recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Abd al-Aziz bin Ubaydullah, and he is da'if (weak).
