Majma al-Zawaid 16669 — Reports on the virtue of the cities of Syria
وَعَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيِّ قَالَ : كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَذَكَرُوا الشَّامَ وَمَنْ فِيهَا مِنَ الرُّومِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " إِنَّكُمْ سَتَغْلِبُونَ عَلَى الشَّامِ ، وَتُصِيبُونَ عَلَى بَحْرِهَا حِصْنًا يُقَالُ لَهُ : أَنَفَةٌ ، يُبْعَثُ مِنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ شَهِيدٍ " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ مَنْ لَمْ أَعْرِفْهُ .
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah al-Bahili (may Allah be pleased with him) states: Once we were sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The people mentioned Sham and the Romans who were there, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Soon you will overcome Sham, and you will reach a fortress on its sea called Anafah. On the Day of Resurrection seventy thousand martyrs will be raised from there."
