Kitab al-Fitan of Nu'aym ibn Hammad: ungraded, and weak overall. Never established on its own.

حدثنا ابن وهب، عن ابن لهيعة، عن أبي قبيل، قال: اجتمع أبو فراس مولى عمرو بن العاص، وموسى بن نصير، وعياض بن عقبة، وذكروا فتح القسطنطينية، وذكروا المسجد الذي يبنى فيها، " فقال أبو فراس: " إني لأعرف الموضع الذي يبنى فيه ، وقال موسى بن نصير: إني لأعرف ذلك الموضع، فقال عياض بن عقبة: يضع كل واحد منكما حديثه في أذني، فأخبراه فقال: أصبتما كلاكما، فقال أبو فراس: سمعت عبد الله بن عمرو بن العاص يقول: إنكم «ستغزون القسطنطينية ثلاث غزوات، فأما أول غزوة فتكون بلاء، وأما الثانية فتكون صلحا، حتى يبني المسلمون فيها مسجدا، ويغزون من وراء القسطنطينية، ثم يرجعون إلى القسطنطينية، وأما الثالثة فيفتحها الله عليكم بالتكبير، فيخرب ثلثها، ويحرق الله ثلثها، وتقسمون الثلث الباقي كيلا»

You will invade Constantinople in three raids. As for the first, it will be a trial, and as for the second, it will be a peace treaty, until the Muslims build a mosque there, and they invade from behind Constantinople, then they return to Constantinople. As for the third, Allah will open it to you with the takbir, and a third of it will be destroyed, and Allah will burn a third of it, and you will divide the remaining third in order to prevent it.

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #1353 in Kitab al-Fitan (Nu'aym ibn Hammad).

[Scholarly Verification Notice]: Recorded in Nu'aym ibn Hammad's Kitab al-Fitan (d. 228 AH). Hadith scholars classify this historical compilation as ungraded and weak overall; its isolated reports are not accepted as established doctrine unless corroborated by standard Sahih works.

[Core Subject]: Constantinople, today's Istanbul, was the capital of the Romans. The Prophet ﷺ foretold that the Muslims would conquer it.

[Described Characteristics]: In Sahih Muslim, after the great battle the Muslims reach the city and conquer it without weapons: at the first 'La ilaha illallah wallahu akbar' one side of its wall falls, at the second the other side, at the third the way opens. While they are dividing the spoils, a cry goes up that the Dajjal has come among their families.

[Timeline & Context]: The conquest comes right after the great battle and just before the Dajjal.

[Prophetic Practice]: The city falls to dhikr, not weapons. La ilaha illallah wallahu akbar is worth more than we think.

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Constantinople (Istanbul).
