先知穆罕默德ﷺ预言了许多穆斯林的征服，包括对罗马、波斯、埃及、也门、印度和君士坦丁堡的征服。这些预言都不含糊其辞，也没有模棱两可，而是以绝对肯定的语气作出的。

The Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم foretold a multitude of Muslim conquests, including those of Rome, Persia, Egypt, Yemen, India, and Constantinople. None of these prophecies were described vaguely or with equivocation, but rather with an air of absolute certainty.

根据Al-Barā’ ibn ‘Āzib的记载，在挖掘围绕麦地那的壕沟以抵御来犯之敌时，一块巨大的岩石挡住了他们的去路，任何斧头都砸不碎它。时间所剩无几，人们的恐惧和饥饿也日益加剧，先知ﷺ走过去拿起斧头。他说：“奉安拉之名（Bismillāh）”，然后猛击岩石，将其中一块砸成碎石。他说：“安拉至大（Allāhu Akbar）！我已被赐予沙姆的钥匙；此刻我就能看见它红色的宫殿。”接着他又砸碎了一块，说：“安拉至大！我已被赐予波斯的钥匙；我能看见马达因的白色宫殿。”最后他砸碎了最后一块，说：“安拉至大！我已被赐予也门的钥匙。以安拉起誓，此刻从这里我就能看见萨那的城门。”281

Al-Barā’ ibn ‘Āzib  reports that while digging the trench outside Madinah to repel an approaching army, a massive boulder obstructed them that no ax would break. With time running out, and with people’s fears and hunger growing, the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم walked over and picked up the ax. He said, “Bismillāh (In God’s name),” and hammered the boulder, reducing a chunk of it to rubble. He said, “Allāhu Akbar (God is Great)! I have been given the keys to Shām; I can see its red palaces at this very moment.” Then he shattered another chunk and said, “Allāhu Akbar! I have been given the keys to Persia; I can see Madain’s white palace.” Then he shattered the last chunk and said, “Allāhu Akbar! I have been given the keys to Yemen. By Allah, I can see the Gates of Sanaa at this very moment from here.”281

关于埃及,先知ﷺ对其征服之事毫不怀疑,因为他深知主的应许是真实的。艾布·宰尔(Abū Dharr)传述:先知ﷺ说:“你们必定会征服埃及,那是一片流通名为‘盖拉特’(al-qīrāṭ)货币的土地。当你们征服它时,要善待其居民,因为他们享有盟约和亲缘关系的权利。当你们看到两个人为一块砖的位置争执时,那就离开吧。”先知ﷺ在此以第二人称准确地说话,预言征服埃及的将正是他的同伴们,而非他人。随后,他ﷺ指示他们要信守与埃及人的和约,并提醒他们,他们的祖母(夏甲,即易卜拉欣的妻子,以实玛利的母亲)……

Regarding Egypt, he صلى الله عليه وسلم took its conquest for granted, knowing his Lord’s promise was true. Abū Dharr  narrated: The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “You will certainly conquer Egypt, a land in which [a currency called] al-qīrāṭ is customary. When you conquer it, be gracious to its people, for they are entitled to a covenant and [the right of] family bonds. And when you see two men disputing over the place of a brick, then leave [Egypt].”282 The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم accurately spoke in the second person here, foretelling that none other than his personal Companions would conquer Egypt. Then he صلى الله عليه وسلم instructed them to honor their peace treaty with the Egyptians and reminded them that their grandmother (Hagar; the mother of Ishmael)

...来自这片土地。在同一段圣训中，艾布·宰尔补充道："我看见'Abdul-Raḥmān ibn Shuraḥbīl ibn Ḥasanah和他的兄弟Rabī'ah为一块砖的位置而争执，于是我便离开了[埃及]。"关于君士坦丁堡，即今天的伊斯坦布尔，先知ﷺ曾说，它将成为穆斯林之地，而这要在将近一千年之后才会实现。'Abdullāh ibn 'Amr报告说，有一次他们与安拉的使者ﷺ同坐并书写时，有人问他ﷺ："哪座城市会先被解放：君士坦丁堡还是罗马？"他ﷺ说："赫拉克利乌斯之城将先被解放。"283 这指的就是君士坦丁堡。

was from this land. In this same narration, Abū Dharr  adds, “I witnessed ‘Abdul-Raḥmān ibn Shuraḥbīl ibn Ḥasanah and his brother, Rabī‘ah, disputing over the place of a brick, so I departed [from Egypt].” Regarding Constantinople, presently called Istanbul, the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said that it would become a Muslim land nearly a millennium prior to that happening. ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Amr  reports that, as they were once sitting with the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم and writing, he صلى الله عليه وسلم was asked, “Which city will be liberated first; Constantinople or Rome?” He said, “The city of Heraclius will be liberated first,”283 meaning Constantinople.

在整整八百年之后,这一伟业由奥斯曼苏丹穆罕默德·菲提赫完成。另有一段圣训称:“君士坦丁堡必定会被攻克,那位统帅是多么优秀的统帅,那支军队是多么优秀的军队。”284 有学者认为,这段第二条圣训所指的,可能是另一次对君士坦丁堡的解放,这一解放同样已有预言,但尚未发生。

An entire 800 years later, this great feat was accomplished by the Ottoman sultan, Muhammad al-Fātiḥ. In another hadith, “Constantinople will certainly be liberated, and how excellent a leader will its leader be, and how excellent an army that army will be.”284 Some scholars hold that this second hadith may refer to a second liberation of Constantinople which was also prophesied but has not yet taken place.
