حَدِيثُ أَبِي ثَعْلَبَةَ الْخُشَنِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ
Hadith of Abu Tha'labah al-Khushani (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Ahmad 17734 — Hadith of Abu Tha'labah al-Khushani
حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا ثَعْلَبَةَ الْخُشَنِيَّ صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ ، يَقُولُ وَهُوَ بِالْفُسْطَاطِ فِي خِلَافَةِ مُعَاوِيَةَ ، وَكَانَ مُعَاوِيَةُ أَغْزَى النَّاسَ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةَ ، فَقَالَ : " وَاللَّهِ لَا تَعْجِزُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةُ مِنْ نِصْفِ يَوْمٍ إِذَا رَأَيْتَ الشَّامَ مَائِدَةَ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ وَأَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ ، فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ فَتْحُ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةِ " .
Jubair (may Allah have mercy on him) says that I heard Abu Tha’labah (may Allah be pleased with him) saying, while he was in the city of Fustat during the caliphate of Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him), and Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) had sent people for jihad to Constantinople: "By Allah! This Ummah will not be incapable for half a day. When you see, in the evening, the dining spread of a man and his household, then the conquest of Constantinople is near."
