Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 16640

وَعَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " بَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ إِذْ رَأَيْتُ عَمُودَ الْكِتَابِ احْتُمِلَ مِنْ تَحْتِ رَأْسِي ، فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ مَذْهُوبٌ بِهِ ، فَأَتْبَعْتُهُ بَصَرِي ، فَعُمِدَ بِهِ إِلَى الشَّامِ ، أَلَا وَإِنَّ الْإِيمَانَ حِينَ تَقَعُ الْفِتَنُ بِالشَّامِ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَرِجَالُ أَحْمَدَ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "While I was sleeping, I saw the pillar of the Book being lifted from beneath my head. I thought it would perhaps be taken away. I followed it with my gaze, and it was taken towards Syria (al-Sham). Behold! When the tribulations occur, faith will be in Syria."
Ahmad and al-Tabarani recorded it; the narrators of Ahmad are the narrators of the Sahih.
