Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 9645

وَعَنْ مُحَارِبٍ قَالَ : كَتَبَ مُعَاوِيَةُ إِلَى زِيَادٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " إِنَّ الْعَدُوَّ لَا يَظْهَرُ عَلَى قَوْمٍ لِوَاؤُهُمْ - أَوْ قَالَ : رَايَتُهُمْ - مَعَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي بَكْرِ بْنِ وَائِلٍ " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ .
Muharib narrates: Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote to Ziyad that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The enemy will not prevail over any people whose small flag (the narrator is in doubt; perhaps the words are:) large flag is with a man from Banu Bakr bin Wa'il."
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
