It is narrated from Sayyiduna Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Buraydah, many armies will soon be dispatched. Be in the army of Khurasan and settle in the city of Marw, for Dhu al-Qarnayn built it and supplicated for blessing for it, so no evil will ever befall its inhabitants."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is narrated from Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain, and Aws bin Abdullah is alone in narrating it."
