[Machine] He heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "Constantinople will surely be opened. How blessed is its Amir, and how blessed is its army!" Muslimah bin Abdul Malik called me and asked me, so I informed him. Then he waged war against Constantinople.
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَتُفْتَحَنَّ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةُ فَلَنِعْمَ الْأَمِيرُ أَمِيرُهَا وَلَنِعْمَ الْجَيْشُ ذَلِكَ الْجَيْشُ قَالَ فَدَعَانِي مَسْلَمَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ فَسَأَلَنِي فَحَدَّثْتُهُ فَغَزَا الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةَ
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Constantinople will be conquered, and what a wonderful leader its leader will be, and what a wonderful army that army will be." Ubaidullah said: "Then Maslamah ibn Abd al-Malik called me and asked me about this hadith, so I narrated it to him, and he (Maslamah ibn Abd al-Malik) then conquered Constantinople."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَتُفْتَحَنَّ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةُ وَلَنِعْمَ الْأَمِيرُ أَمِيرُهَا وَلَنِعْمَ الْجَيْشُ ذَلِكَ الْجَيْشُ» قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ «فَدَعَانِي مَسْلَمَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ فَسَأَلَنِي عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ فَغَزَا الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةَ»
[Machine] He heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Constantinople will surely be conquered. What a wonderful leader will its leader be, and what a wonderful army will that army be." So, Maslama bin Abdul-Malik called me and asked me about this hadith, and I narrated it to him. That year, Constantinople was conquered.
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَتُفْتَحَنَّ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةُ وَلَنِعْمَ الْأَمِيرُ أَمِيرُهَا وَلَنِعْمَ الْجَيْشُ ذَلِكَ الْجَيْشُ» فَدَعَانِي مَسْلَمَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ فَسَأَلَنِي عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ بِهِ فَغَزَا تِلْكَ السَّنَةَ
