Jamil awoke from a strange dream—a fragmented vision of himself committing a slaying, or perhaps something darker. Yet, the "King of Kings" paid it no mind. He ascended the pulpit (Minbar) in the furthest northern reaches of the state and called out with a voice that pierced the city's horizons, reaching the ears of those in the south, the north, the east, and the west.
He declared:
"In the name of Allah, and peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad. To proceed: whoever amongst you is capable of fighting, come forward! We have prepared for you equipment, wealth, and the promise of martyrdom. It is either victory or paradise. We are marching to liberate your sisters in Rome, for they are being oppressed by the tyrants... or as you say, by the accursed."
Within mere hours, nearly 5,000 volunteers were seen covering the land like scattered moths. They moved out in a majestic procession, the likes of which had never been seen—a display of unparalleled splendor and power. These were men as solid as iron, with hearts forged like precious metals, marching toward their kin, their loved ones, and their sisters.

لم تمر السعات الا و شوهد قرابة 5000 متطوع كانهم فراش منبوث في الارض . ثم انتقلوا في موكب مهيب لم و لن يشهد منه مثيلا و لا روعة و قوة . رجال صلب كالحديد و قلوبهم كالمعادن . ذاهبون الى اهلهم , احبابهم , اخواتهم . ما اجمل هذا المشهد الذي تتوقف له القلوب من هيبته !
في الجهة المقابلة في روما , نشاهد الملك هرقل علم بوصول هذا الحشد المثير , فارسل رسالة محتواها "تظنوا انكم الفائزون فاذهبوا اللى اسرتكم فلنا جيش لا يقهر و ان غلب جبرودكم العالم فان كائناتنا قادمون . انهم قادمون ..... "
