Hadith of the Prophet : said:"Lataftahanna al-Qustantiniyya wa lani`ma al-amiru amiruha wa lani`ma al-jayshu dhalika al-jaysh."
"Verily you shall conquer Constantinople. What a wonderful leader will her leader be, and what a wonderful army will that army be!"
Narrated from Bishr al-Khath`ami or al-Ghanawi by:
Ahmad, al-Musnad 14:331 #18859 [sahih chain according to Hamza al-Zayn] al-Hakim, al-Mustadrak 4:421-422 [sahih according to him and al-Dhahabi concurred] al-Tabarani, al-Mu`jam al-Kabir 2:38 #1216 [sahih chain according to al-Haythami 6:218-219] al-Bukhari, al-Tarikh al-Kabir 2:81 and al-Saghir 1:306 Ibn `Abd al-Barr, al-Isti`ab 8:170 [hasan chain according to him] al-Suyuti, al-Jami` al-Saghir [sahih according to him]
That defacto seals any anti-Turk attitudes as they have been praised being the conqueror of Constantinople..And their leader will be defined as "wonderful". In this context it makes the Safavid absolutely "najis" (swine) for launching campaign against the Ottomans who were the rightful conquers of Constantinople!
Iranians seem like extremist people. When they were under the Shah, they were extremely liberal. When the revolution happened they became extremely religious. Now they are sick of religion. Why can't these guys just find a balance?
And at the time of Yazgerd, they were soo extremely lavish that Prophet used their example of lavishness as a curse on a society!
