Kitab al-Fitan · Nu'aym ibn Hammad

The affliction of the Umayyads will continue to be severe, until Allah sends the people like the autumn raindrops. They will come from all over the world, and they will not seek the advice of a prince or a commander. If that happens, Allah will remove the kingdom of the Umayyads.

The last caliph from the Umayyad tribe whose rule would not last for two years

Spare me from this, O Commander of the Faithful. How excellent the people of Khurasan are, and Banu Umayyad from Banu Hashim have gores, and Banu Hashim from Banu Umayyah have gores. Then the Sufyani will come out.

So he told us about the Umayyads, even mentioning the emergence of Marwan. Then after Marin, who emerges from the Jazira, will come black flags. They will pour down upon you a torrent until they enter Damascus for three hours of the day, and mercy will be withdrawn from its people. Then mercy will return to it, and the sword will be removed from them, then they will march until they reach Morocco.

Abdullah bin Marwan told us, Muhammad bin Siwar told us, on the authority of Ubayd Allah bin Al-Walid, on the authority of Muhammad bin Ali, he said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Woe to my nation from the two Shiites: the Shiites of Bani Umayyad, the Shiites of Bani Abbas, and the banner of misguidance.”

When it reached the year one hundred and twenty-nine, and the swords of the Umayyads clashed, and the donkey of the Peninsula leaped and conquered the Levant, the black banners would appear in the year one hundred and twenty-nine, and the ram would appear with a people who did not pay attention to them, whose hearts were like steel, their hair down to their shoulders, and they had no pity or mercy towards their enemy, their names were nicknames, and their tribes were villages, and they were wearing clothes like the color of the dark night, leading them to the Abbas family and the weakness of their state. They kill the notables of that time until they flee from them into the wilderness, and their state will continue until the star with the tail appears, and they disagree among themselves.

After them will come the owners of the black banners, and their command and duration will prolong until the pledge of allegiance to two of them is given. When they come together, they disagree among themselves, and their disagreement will prolong until three banners are raised in the Levant, and if they are raised, this is the reason for the interruption of their term. If it is read in Egypt from Abdullah Abdullah, the Commander of the Faithful, it is not long before another letter is read to them from Abdullah Abd al-Rahman, the Commander of the Faithful, and he is the ruler of the Maghreb, and he is worse than a king, and they are ruining Egypt and the Levant. If their command in the Levant intensifies, the black banners and the companions of The three banners and those in them from the Maghreb against the people of the Maghreb, so they all gather against them and fight them, so the people of the three banners will prevail, and the Berbers will be cut off. Then they will fight the owners of the black banners until their order will be cut off.

After the destruction of the Umayyads, the bringer of beasts will come, and the people of the earth will gather to him from its four corners, and Allah will punish this nation with them

The Banu Umayyad will continue to remain steadfast in their affairs until the black banners emerge from the East and make them permissible

This matter will continue to exist in fairness until the first person to speak to it is a man from the Umayyads

A man from the Banu Hashim reigns and kills the Umayyads, leaving only a few of them remaining. He does not kill anyone else. Then a man from the Umayyads emerges and kills two men with each man until only the women remain. Then the Mahdi will emerge.

Rushdin told us, on the authority of Ibn Lahi’ah, on the authority of Abu Zur’ah, on the authority of Sabah, on the authority of Sa’id ibn al-Aswad, on the authority of Dhu Qarnat, who said: “If you see a lame man from the Umayyads in Egypt, then leave Fustat on the head of a post, a man from his household will kill him. Then the people of the Levant send an army to them, and a man from Kindah meets them in al-Arish, and he obeys them first and after, and says: I am sufficient for you in this matter. Then he joins the army and kills that man and whoever follows him until he takes the people captive. Egypt, and they follow them into Mazen market.”

Al-Sufyani spreads his soldiers across the horizons after entering Kufa and Baghdad, and his branch from across the river reaches him from the people of Khorasan, and the people of the East attack them and kill their unclean things. When he hears that, he sends a great army to Istakhr, against whom is a man from the Umayyads, and they will have an attack in Qums, an attack in Dawlat al-Ray, and an attack on the borders of Zaranj. Then, the Sufyani orders the killing of the people of Kufa and the people of Medina, and at that point The black flags will come from Khorasan, and over all the people will be a young man from Banu Hashim, with his right hand empty. May Allah make his affairs and his path easy. Then there will be an encounter with him on the borders of Khorasan, and Al-Hashemi will go on the road to irrigation, and a man from Banu Tamim from the loyalists called Shuaib bin Saleh will be sent to Istakhar to the Umayyad. He, the Mahdi, and Al-Hashemi will meet in the white area of Istakhr, and there will be a great battle between them. A man from Bani Uday will be upon them, so Allah will appear. His supporters and soldiers, then there will be an attack in al-Mada'in after the two attacks of Rayy, and in Aqarqufa there is an attack in Saylimiyya, about which every survivor will report. Then after that there will be a great slaughter in Babylon, and an attack in a land of the land of Nisibis. Then, in particular, a group of people from among their ranks, namely the Asab, mostly from Kufa and Basra, will emerge in order to rescue the Kufan captives in their hands.

A man from the Banu Hashim reigns and kills the Umayyads until only a few of them remain, and no one else is killed. Then a man from the Umayyads emerges and kills two for each man, until only the women remain. Then the Mahdi emerges.

Abu Harun told us, on the authority of Amr ibn Qais al-Malai, on the authority of al-Minhal, on the authority of Zirr ibn Hubaysh, he heard Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) say: “May Allah relieve the temptations of a man among us who afflicts them with shame and gives them nothing but the sword. He places the sword on his shoulder for eight months of chaos, until they say: By Allah, this is not a descendant of Fatima. If he were hers, he would have mercy on us. Allah tempts him with the sons of Abbas and the sons of Umayyad.”

The Mahdi will descend in Bayt al-Maqdis, then there will be caliphs from his family after him, their term will be prolonged, and they will be arrogant until the people pray against the Banu Abbas and the Banu Umayyad from what they receive from them.

A caliph from the Banu Hashim will descend on Jerusalem and fill the earth with justice. He will build Jerusalem a building that has never been built before. He will rule for forty years. The Roman truce will be under his control for seven years remaining in his caliphate. Then they will betray him, then they will gather for him in the depths, and he will die there in grief. Then a man from the Banu Hashim will follow after him, then their defeat will occur, and the conquest of Constantinople will be on his hands. Then he will go to Rome and conquer it, extracting its treasures and the table of Suleiman ibn David, peace be upon them, then returns to Jerusalem and descends there. The Dajjal will emerge in his time, and Jesus, son of Mary (peace be upon him), will descend and pray behind him.

A man from among us will follow at the end of time for forty years, and the epics will be for seven years remaining in his caliphate, then he will die in the depths of grief, then a man among them will follow him with two moles, and on his hands will be the conquest that day, meaning the conquest of the Romans in the depths.

A man among them will follow at the end of time for forty years, and the epics will be for the remaining seven years of his caliphate, then he will die in the depths of grief, then a man of them will follow her with two moles, and on his hands will be conquest that day.

There will be a despicable man from the Umayyads in Egypt, who will come to power and gain control over his power or take it away from him. He will flee to the Romans and bring the Romans to the people of Islam. This is the first of the epics.

This matter will happen to a man from the Umayyads who will follow you for twenty-two years, then successive caliphs will die in a few years, and then a man with a mark in his eye, meaning Hisham bin Abdul Malik, who collects money in a manner that no one has collected, lives for nineteen years and something, then dies.

The last caliph of the Banu Umayyads ruled for two years, not exceeding eighteen months
