heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "Paradise will be granted to the first batch of my followers who will undertake a naval expedition." (Umm Harâm added), I said, "O Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ)! Will I be amongst them?" He replied, "You are amongst them." The Prophet (ﷺ) then said, "The first army amongst my followers who will invade Caesar's city will be forgiven their sins." I asked, "Will I be one of them, O Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ)?" He replied in the negative. [4:175-O.B]
