[Machine] I heard Muawiya delivering a sermon saying, "O people of Sham, An Ansari informed me that Shu'bah, meaning Zaid ibn Arqam, said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'A group of my Ummah will remain steadfast upon the truth, manifestly, and I hope that you are among them, O people of Sham.'"  

أحمد:١٩٢٩٠ – حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ الشَّامِيِّ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ مُعَاوِيَةَ يَخْطُبُ يَقُولُ يَا أَهْلَ الشَّامِ حَدَّثَنِي الْأَنْصَارِيُّ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ يَعْنِي زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَا تَزَالُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي عَلَى الْحَقِّ ظَاهِرِينَ وَإِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونُوهُمْ يَا أَهْلَ الشَّامِ

[Machine] I heard Mu'awiyah delivering a sermon and he said, "O people of Syria, An Ansari informed me that Shu'bah, meaning Zaid bin Arqam, said, 'The Prophet ﷺ said, "There will always be a group of people from my Ummah (nation) who will fight for the truth until the command of Allah comes to them."' And I think that you are those people, O people of Syria."
