[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me to Yemen and said, "Perhaps you will pass by my mosque and my grave, and I have sent you to a people whose hearts are soft. They fight for the truth, so fight alongside those who obey you and against those who disobey you, until even a woman hurries to embrace Islam before her husband, and a child his parents, and a brother his brother. Then descend between the two valleys of tranquility and peace."  

الطبراني:١٧٣٦٩ – حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ بْنِ نَجْدَةَ الْحَوْطِيُّ ثنا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ ثنا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ثنا أَبُو زِيَادٍ يَحْيَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْغَسَّانِيُّ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ قُطَيْبٍ عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ قَالَ

بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَقَالَ «لَعَلَّكَ أَنْ تَمُرَّ بِمَسْجِدِي وَقَبْرِي وَقَدْ بَعَثْتُكَ إِلَى قَوْمٍ رُقَيْقَةٌ قُلُوبُهُمْ يُقَاتِلُونُ عَلَى الْحَقِّ فَقَاتِلْ بِمَنْ أَطَاعَكَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ عَصَاكَ ثُمَّ يَفِيئُونَ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ حَتَّى تُبَادِرَ الْمَرْأَةُ زَوْجَهَا وَالْوَلَدُ والِدَهُ وَالْأَخُ أَخَاهُ فَانْزِلْ بَيْنَ الْحَيَّيْنِ السَّكُونِ وَالسَّكَاسِكِ»

[Machine] He used to say that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me to Yemen, and he said, "Perhaps you will pass by my grave and my mosque. I have sent you to a people whose hearts are gentle, they fight for the truth twice. Fight alongside those who obey you and those who disobey you until the woman surpasses her husband, the child surpasses his father, and the brother surpasses his brother. Then, settle between the two sacred places - Sakun and Sakkasik."

"لَعَلَّكَ أَنْ تَمُرَّ بِمسْجِدِى وَقَبْرِى، قَدْ بُعِثْتَ إِلَى قَوْمٍ رَقِيقَةٍ قُلُوبُهُمْ، يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ، فَقَاتِلْ بِمَنْ أطَاعَكَ مِنهُمْ مَنْ عَصَاكَ، ثُمَّ يَفيئُونَ إِلَى الإِسْلامِ حَتَّى تُبَادِرَ الْمَرْأةُ زَوْجَهَا، وَالْوَلَدُ وَالِدَهُ، والأَخُ أخَاهُ، وانْزِلْ بَيَّن الْحَيَّينِ: السُّكُونِ والسَّكَاسِك".
