Kitab al-Fitan · Nu'aym ibn Hammad

No ship will ever sail on the sea after the conquest of Rome, and fighting deeds is associated with strife, because three entire tribes join in disbelieving in their banners, and a group of the Reds strikes and joins them as well.

Twelve Persian kings are attending the great epic, the youngest of whom is a king and the least of whom are soldiers is the ruler of the Romans. Allah Almighty has two treasures in Yemen, one of which he brought on the day of Yarmouk. The Azd at that time were a third of the people, and the other will be brought on the day of the great epic, seventy thousand, with their swords drawn.

By the Romans on the day of the battle, and had I not witnessed the conquest of the city of infidelity, I would not have loved to live, for Allah Almighty forbids that day any iron weapon to be cowardly.

Al-Mansur is the Mahdi, may the people of heaven and earth, and the birds of the sky, pray for him. He is afflicted with fighting by the Romans and epics for twenty years, then he is killed as a martyr in the great epic, he and two thousand with him, all of them a prince and a standard bearer. No calamity has befallen the Muslims after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ greater than this.

O Abu Amer, if these two dustbins are blown up, then remove your family from Homs. If you enter Antarsus and three hundred martyrs are killed there, then remove your family from Homs. The Persians will close it in on the descendants of the Muslims and their women. Then we surrounded ourselves until we entered Deir Mashal. You will see this wood. On that day, it will be the catapults of the Muslims. It is not permissible for them to complete three years. The Romans have three outings. This is the first, and the other. An army will come to the sea with a thousand castles and they will disperse them. They recruit their share, and prepare to go out in one day, and when that day comes, each people goes out to the next Muslims, burns their ships, and makes their fortresses tents, then they fight and the affliction and fighting intensify in all of Syria, and some of them are unable to defeat others, and Allah withholds victory, and gives weapons, and softens the people until it becomes the Muslims’ business to fortify themselves in Al-Mada’in, and notifies the Roman scribes in the breaches of Al-Mada’in, and then the Persians of Homs are closed. Its doors are upon the descendants of Muslims and their women, and the fighting intensifies in the land of Palestine for four consecutive days.
