It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once mentioned a region called Basrah, on one side of which flows a river named Dijlah (Tigris), and it is an area with many gardens. There, the Banu Qantura (Turks) will come and settle. Then the people will be divided into three groups: one group will join their origin and they will be destroyed; one group will transgress against themselves and disbelieve; and one group will leave their children behind and fight. Their slain will be martyrs, and through the remaining people of this group, the Muslims will achieve victory.
