Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 40172 — Those who disliked going out during

It is narrated from Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Bakrah that he said: I went to Syria and said (to myself): "What if I were to go to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) and greet him with salam?" So I came to him and greeted him with salam. He asked: "Who are you?" I said: "I am Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Bakrah." He said: "Soon the Banu Qantura' (the Christians of the Turks or of Rome) will drive you out of the land of Iraq." I said: "Then will we return?" He said: "Do you want that?" I said: "Yes." He said: "Yes, and that return will be a springtime of life for you."
