أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ قُرَيْشٍ ثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ ثَنَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عَائِذٍ عُفَيْرُ بْنُ مَعْدَانَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سُلَيْمَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ الْكَلَاعِيَّ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيِّ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ
«الشَّامُ صَفْوَةُ اللَّهِ مِنْ بِلَادِهِ يَسُوقُ إِلَيْهَا صَفْوَةَ عِبَادِهِ مَنْ خَرَجَ مِنَ الشَّامِ إِلَى غَيْرِهَا فَبِسُخْطِهِ وَمَنْ دَخَلَ مِنْ غَيْرِهَا فَبِرَحْمَتِهِ»
