✧ He heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "You will make peace with the Byzantines for ten years, a secure peace. They will fulfill two years and break the treaty in the third, or fulfill four and break it in the fifth. Then an army of you will encamp in their city, and you and they will raid an enemy behind you and behind them. You will fight that enemy and Allah will grant you victory, and you will depart with the reward and spoils you have gained. Then you will encamp in a meadow with hills. One of your men will say, 'Allah has prevailed,' and one of their men will say, 'The cross has prevailed,' and they will go back and forth over it. The Muslims will become angry, and their cross will be not far from them. That Muslim will rise to their cross and smash it, and they will come out against the breaker of their cross and strike his neck. Then that band of Muslims will rise to their weapons, and the Byzantines will rise to their weapons, and they will kill that band of Muslims, who will be martyred. Then they will go to their king and say, 'We have spared you the might and strength of the Arabs, so what are we waiting for?' He will gather for you an army the size of a woman's pregnancy, and then they will come to you under eighty banners, under each banner twelve thousand."
