وَعَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " الشَّامُ صَفْوَةُ اللَّهِ مِنْ بِلَادِهِ ، إِلَيْهَا يَجْتَبِي صَفْوَتَهُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ ، فَمَنْ خَرَجَ مِنَ الشَّامِ إِلَى غَيْرِهِ فَبِسَخْطَهِ ، وَمَنْ دَخَلَهَا مِنْ غَيْرِهَا فَبِرَحْمَةٍ " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ عُفَيْرُ بْنُ مَعْدَانَ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Syria (al-Sham) is the chosen one, in the sight of Allah Almighty, among His lands, and He will draw to it the chosen ones of His servants. Whoever leaves Syria for another region will do so because of the displeasure of Allah Almighty, and whoever leaves another region for Syria will do so because of the mercy of Allah Almighty."
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Ufayr bin Ma'dan, and he is da'if (weak).
