Hadith 292
وَعَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
" إِنَّ فُسْطَاطَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَوْمَ الْمَلْحَمَةِ بِالْغُوطَةِ إِلَى جَانِبِ مَدِينَةٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا: دِمَشْقُ مِنْ خَيْرِ مَدَائِنِ الشَّامِ "
Abud Darda' reported God's messenger as saying, "The place of assembly of the-Muslims at the time of the war will be in al-Ghuta near a city called Damascus, one of the best cities of Syria." Aba Dawud transmitted it.
