2239. Anas bin Mālik said: "Constantinople will be conquered with the coming of the Hour." (Sahīh) (One of the narrators) Maḥmūd said: "This Hadīth is Gharīb, and Constantinople is a Roman city which will be conquered when the Dajjāl comes, and Constantinople was (also) conquered during the time of some of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ."
٢٢٣٩ - حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ. قَالَ «فَتْحُ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةِ» مَعَ قِيَامِ السَّاعَةِ. قَالَ مَحْمُودٌ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ، وَالْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةُ هِيَ مَدِينَةُ الرُّومِ تُفْتَحُ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِ الدَّجَّالِ، وَالْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةُ قَدْ فُتِحَتْ فِي زَمَانِ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.

Constantinople was conquered by Muslims during the caliphate of Mu'āwiyah ﷺ. It was again captured by the Romans. Muslims once again captured it, and it is still under their control. The Hadīth indicates that the Muslims shall once again lose control of it. Then, after a great war, Muslims will recapture it. It is after this that the Dajjāl will appear, and it will happen just before the Final Hour.
