[Machine] "That it would be apparent to us, even if you were to send someone to deceive us, and Abdullah said, 'We will not be deceived. By Allah, there will come a time when if they were to search for a cup of water, they would not find it. All water will return to its source, and the Muslims will be in Syria.'"  

الطبراني:٨٨٥٦حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ شُكِيَ إِلَى ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ الْفُرَاتَ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا نَخَافُ

أَنْ يَنْبَثِقَ عَلَيْنَا فَلَوْ أَرْسَلْتَ إِلَيْهِ مَنْ يُسَكِّرُهُ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ «لَا نُسَكِّرُهُ فَوَاللهِ لَيَأْتِيَنَّ عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ لَوِ الْتَمَسُوا فِيهِ عَلَى طَسْتٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ مَا وَجَدْتُمُوهُ لَيَرْجِعَنَّ كُلُّ مَاءٍ إِلَى عُنْصُرِهِ وَيَكُونُ فِيهِ الْمَاءُ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ بِالشَّامِ»

[Machine] The Euphrates River extended during the time of Abdullah, and the people disliked that. Abdullah said, "Do not dislike it, for there will soon come a time when people will search for a cup of water and will not find it, as all water will return to its source, and the remainder of the water will be with the believers in Sham."

مُدَّ الْفُرَاتُ عَلَى عَهْدِ عَبْدِ اللهِ فَكَرِهَ ذَلِكَ النَّاسُ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ «لَا تَكْرَهُوا فَإِنَّهُ يُوشِكُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يُلْتَمَسُ فِيهِ طَسْتٌ مِنْ مَاءٍ وَلَا يُوجَدُ ذَلِكَ حِينَ يَرْجِعُ كُلُّ مَاءٍ إِلَى عُنْصُرِهِ وَيَكُونُ بَقِيَّةُ الْمَاءِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ بِالشَّامِ»
