At the time these prophecies were written, Constantinople was still the capital f the Eastern Roman Empire and, as such, was the capital city for most of the Christians the Arabs would have known. Rum (Romans) are usually referred to almost interchangeably with Christians. Nowadays Constantinople is mainly Muslim (though with Armenian and Orthodox Christian and Roman Catholic minorities) because it was conquered by the Ottomans and then rather effectively ethnically cleansed under Ataturk and his successors. It certainly wasn't conquered in the manner sugested above, however, the conquest, in fact having been very violent. The sons of Isaac in the above is clearly meant to be an army of Muslims.

Thanks James, i was reading it as though it was yet future because the war between the muslims and Christians was supposed to happen in the time of the mahdi according to the previous article. Well, i'm here to learn so thanks again.
