The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "You will conquer Egypt, a land where the qirat is mentioned. When you conquer it, treat its people well, for they have a covenant and a kinship," or he said, "a covenant and a marriage tie. When you see two men disputing over the place of a single brick there, leave it."So when I saw Abdul-Rahman bin Shurahbil bin Hasanah and his brother Rabia disputing over the place of a brick, I left it.
قال رسول الله ﷺ: إنكم ستفتحون مصر، وهي أرض يسمى فيها القراط، فإذا فتحتموها فأحسنوا إلى أهلها، فإن لهم ذمة ورحما- أو قال: ذمة وصهرا- فإذا رأيت رجلين يختصمان فيهما في موضع لبنة فاخرج منها فرأيت عبد الرحمن بن شرحبيل بن حسنة وأخاه ربيعة يختصمان في موضع لبنة، فخرجت منها.
Muslim narrated it in the Book of the Virtues of the Companions (227:2543), from Zuhayr bin Harb and Abdullah bin Saeed, who both said, Wahb bin Jareer told us, my father told us, I heard Harmala the Egyptian narrating from Abdul-Rahman bin Sahammasa, from Abu Basra, from Abu Dharr, who said... and he related it.
