It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A group from my Ummah will remain steadfast on the religion and dominant over their enemies until the Day of Judgment. Those who oppose them will not be able to harm them in any way, except that they may face some economic hardship, until the command of Allah comes while they are in that state. The Companions asked: O Messenger of Allah! Where will they be? He (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: They will be in Bayt al-Maqdis and its surrounding areas.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: When Allah intends good for a servant, He grants him understanding of the religion. A group from among the Muslims will always fight for the truth, and they will remain dominant over their opponents until the Day of Resurrection.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: When corruption appears among the people of Syria, there will be no good left among the Muslims.

It is narrated from Umair bin Hani, he says: I heard Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) saying from this pulpit that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A group from my Ummah will remain, by Allah’s command, until the Day of Judgment; those who oppose them will not be able to harm them in any way, rather, they will prevail over the people. Malik bin Yukhamir Siksaki said: O Commander of the Faithful! I heard Mu’adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) say that the people of Shaam are the ones referred to in this hadith. Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said in a loud voice: This Malik is saying that he also heard Sayyiduna Mu’adh (may Allah be pleased with him) say that by this group is meant the people of Shaam.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Anas al-Juhani that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: My Ummah will remain steadfast upon the Shari'ah until these three things become apparent among them: (1) the disappearance of knowledge, (2) the abundance of adultery, that is, illegitimate children, and (3) the appearance of Saqqaroon. Sayyiduna Mu'adh, may Allah be pleased with him, asked: O Messenger of Allah! Who are meant by Saqqaroon? He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: In the last era, such people will appear who, instead of greeting each other with peace, will curse one another when they meet.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Utbah Khaulani (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty will always continue to bring forth such people in this religion whom He will use for His obedience.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A group from my Ummah will always fight for the truth and they will remain dominant over others until the Day of Judgment. When Isa bin Maryam (peace be upon him) descends, the leader of this group will say to him: "Come and lead us in prayer." But he will reply: "You are leaders over one another (therefore, you should lead the prayer yourselves)." This is because Allah Almighty will honor this Ummah.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Imran bin Husain, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: A group from my Ummah will always prevail over their opponents, until the command of Allah, that is, the Day of Judgment, comes, and Isa ibn Maryam, peace be upon him, will descend from the heavens.
