"كَذَبُوا، الآنَ جَاءَ الْقِتَالُ، الآنَ جَاءَ الْقِتَالُ، لَا يزالُ اللهُ يُزِيغُ قُلُوبَ أقْوام تُقَاتِلَونهُمْ ويَرْزُقُكُمْ اللهُ مِنْهُمْ حَتَّى يأتِي أَمْرُ اللهِ وَهُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ، وعُقْرُ دَارِ الإِسْلَامِ بالشَّامِ".  

ابن سعد عن سلمة بن نفيل الحضرمى

ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ الشَّامَ هِيَ عُقْرُ دَارِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ

[Machine] "A victory has been granted to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, so I went to him and said: O Messenger of Allah, the horses have been rested and the weapons have been put down, as the burdens of war have been lifted and they said there will be no fighting. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: They are lying, the fighting has now arrived, the fighting has now arrived. Indeed, Allah, the Exalted and Almighty, misguides the hearts of certain people and causes those who fight against them to be given provisions from them, until the decree of Allah comes to pass in that matter, and the striking of Dar al-Mu'minin in Ash-Sham."  

ابن حبّان:٧٣٠٧أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُهَاجِرٍ عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْجُرَشِيِّ عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ عَنِ النَّوَّاسِ بْنِ سَمْعَانَ قَالَ

فُتِحَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَتْحٌ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ سُيِّبَتِ الْخَيْلُ وَوَضَعُوا السِّلَاحَ فَقَدْ وَضَعَتِ الْحَرْبُ أَوْزَارَهَا وَقَالُوا لَا قِتَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «كَذَبُوا الْآنَ جَاءَ الْقِتَالُ الْآنَ جَاءَ الْقِتَالُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ جَلَّ وَعَلَا يُزِيغُ قُلُوبَ أَقْوَامٍ يُقَاتِلُونَهُمْ وَيَرْزُقُهُمُ اللَّهُ مِنْهُمْ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَعُقْرُ دَارِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ الشَّامُ»
