Mention of the Fire of the Hijaz and the narrations and reports that have been transmitted concerning it

...of the Arabs, Ali ibn Abbas al-Rumi, where he says:

"When they stand firm, they are a barrier of iron... you would reckon our eyes upon them to be seas;"

"And when they advance to combat, they are blazing fires... fueled with intense flames against the enemies."

And among them is the Fire of the Hijaz which illuminated the necks of the camels in Busra, just as the Prophet (ﷺ) foretold:

Al-Bukhari and al-Hakim in "al-Mustadrak" narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): "The Hour will not be established until a fire emerges from the land of Hijaz that will illuminate the necks of the camels in Busra."

Ibn Abi Shaybah, Ahmad, and al-Hakim (who authenticated it) narrated from Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Would that I knew when a fire will emerge from Mount Wuraq, by which the necks of the Bactrian camels in Busra will be illuminated like the light of day?!"

So I called for my sandals, hurried down to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and said: "O Messenger of Allah, you asked us about Habs Sayl and we said we had no knowledge of it. Now this man passed by me, and I asked him, and he claimed to be from its inhabitants." The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) questioned him, saying: "Where is your family?" He replied: "At Habs Sayl." He (ﷺ) said: "Take your family out, for soon a fire will emerge from it that will illuminate the necks of the camels in Busra."
