Sunan Ibn Majah 4094 (Book 36, Hadith 170) #33450
The Hour and Conquest of Constantinople

SUMMARY: The hadith speaks of the Hour not beginning until a Muslim outpost is established at Baula, and that the people of Hijaz who do not fear anyone for Allah's sake will conquer Constantinople with Tasbih and Takbir.

It was narrated from Kathir bin 'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin 'Awf, from his father, that his grandfather said: "The Messenger of Allah said: 'The Hour will not begin until the closest Muslim outpost will be at Baula’.’ Then he said: 'O 'Ali, O 'Ali, O 'Ali.’ He ('Ali) said: 'May my father and mother be ransomed for you.’ He said: 'You will fight Banu Asfar (the Romans) and those who come after you will fight them, until the best of the Muslims go out to fight them, the people of Hijaz who do not fear the blame of anyone for the sake of Allah. They will conquer Constantinople with Tasbih and Takbir and will acquire such spoils of war as has never been seen before, which they will distribute by the shieldful. Someone will come and say: "Masih has appeared in your land!" But he will be lying, so the one who takes (some of the spoils) will regret it, and the one who leaves it behind will regret it too.’"
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ الرَّقِّيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَعْقُوبَ الْحُنَيْنِيُّ، عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ ‏"‏ لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تَكُونَ أَدْنَى مَسَالِحِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ بِبَوْلاَءَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ ـ ـ ‏"‏ يَا عَلِيُّ يَا عَلِيُّ يَا عَلِيُّ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّكُمْ سَتُقَاتِلُونَ بَنِي الأَصْفَرِ وَيُقَاتِلُهُمُ الَّذِينَ مِنْ بَعْدِكُمْ حَتَّى تَخْرُجَ إِلَيْهِمْ رُوقَةُ الإِسْلاَمِ أَهْلُ الْحِجَازِ الَّذِينَ لاَ يَخَافُونَ فِي اللَّهِ لَوْمَةَ لاَئِمٍ فَيَفْتَتِحُونَ الْقُسْطُنْطِينِيَّةَ بِالتَّسْبِيحِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ فَيُصِيبُونَ غَنَائِمَ لَمْ يُصِيبُوا مِثْلَهَا حَتَّى يَقْتَسِمُوا بِالأَتْرِسَةِ وَيَأْتِي آتٍ فَيَقُولُ إِنَّ الْمَسِيحَ قَدْ خَرَجَ فِي بِلاَدِكُمْ أَلاَ وَهِيَ كِذْبَةٌ فَالآخِذُ نَادِمٌ وَالتَّارِكُ نَادِمٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the end times when a Muslim outpost will be established at Baula. It also mentions that those who come after this establishment will fight against the Romans in order to conquer Constantinople with Tasbih and Takbir. These conquerors are described as being from Hijaz, meaning they are brave people who do not fear anyone for Allah's sake. They will acquire spoils of war which have never been seen before, but someone may come claiming that Masih has appeared in their land - however this person would be lying. Those who take some spoils may regret it while those who leave it behind may also regret it too. This hadith teaches us to remain steadfast in our faith even when faced with difficult situations or temptations as well as to always strive for justice and truth no matter what comes our way.
