Kitab al-Fitan · Nu'aym ibn Hammad

Al-Walid and Rushdin told us, on the authority of Ibn Lahi’ah, he said: Abu Zur’ah told me, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Ali, he said: “When the seeker in Mecca hears of the eclipse, he will go out with twelve thousand, including Al-Abdal, until they come down to Ilya. Then the one who sent the army when he hears the news of Ilya’ says: By Amr, Allah has made this man an example. I have sent to him what I have sent, so they will disperse in the land. This is a lesson and an insight, and the Sufyani will lead him to him.” Then he goes out until he meets a dog, and they are his uncles, and they reproach him for what he has done and say: “May Allah cover you with a shirt, but you took it off?” He says: “What do you think? Should I give him the pledge of allegiance?” They say: “Yes.” Then he comes to Ilya and says: “I will not do it.” He says: “Yes.” He says: “Do you like me to remove you?” He says: “Yes.” Then he says: “This is a man who has taken off my obedience.” Then he orders him to be slaughtered on a slab Ilya, then he walks to Kalb, and he who is disappointed is the one who is disappointed on the day Kalb is looted.”

Abdullah bin Marwan told us, on the authority of Al-Haytham bin Abdul Rahman, he said: Someone who heard Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) told me: “If Al-Sufyani sends an army to the Mahdi and he overwhelms them in Al-Bayda, and this reaches the people of the Levant, they say to their caliph: The Mahdi has left, so pledge allegiance to him and enter into obedience to him, otherwise we will kill you. Then he will be sent to him with the pledge of allegiance, and the Mahdi will march until he descends on Jerusalem, and the treasuries will be transferred to him, and the Arabs, Persians, and people of war will enter.” And the Romans and others obeyed him without fighting, until mosques were built in Constantinople and below it, and a man from his household in the East would emerge before him, carrying the sword on his shoulder for eight months, killing and mutilating, and heading to Jerusalem, and not reaching it until he died.”

Al-Hakam bin Nafi told us ، About Jarrah ، About Artaat ، He said: “Al-Sakhri enters Kufa ، Then he will be informed of the appearance of the Mahdi in Mecca ، Then a delegation will be sent to him from Kufa ، It will be destroyed and none of them will be saved except a herald of the Mahdi ، A rocky portent ، The Mahdi will arrive from Mecca ، Al-Sakhri is from Kufa towards the Levant ، As if they were betting horses ، It is preceded by rocky ، Then another mission will be sent from the Levant to the Mahdi ، They will meet the Mahdi in the land of Hijaz ، They pledge allegiance to him as a pledge of guidance ، They continue with him until they reach the border of the Levant, which is between the Levant and the Hijaz ، And he resides there ، And it is said to him: Execute ، He hated Hijaz and said: Write to my cousin ، If he abandons his obedience, then I am your friend ، When the letter reached Al-Sakhri, he handed it over to him and pledged allegiance ، The Mahdi walked until he came to Jerusalem ، The Mahdi will not leave a portion of the land in the hands of a man from the Levant without returning it to the people of the Dhimmah ، He returned all Muslims to jihad ، He stays there for three years ، Then a man emerges from a dog called Kinana ، A planet helps him among a group of his people ، Until Al-Sakhri comes and says: We pledged allegiance to you and supported you, so that when you took power, you pledged allegiance to our enemy? Let them go out and fight ، He says: Who should I take out? He says: There is no longer an Amriya whose mother is older than you unless she joins you ، And no one with a shoe or a hoof will leave you behind ، He leaves and all of Amer leaves with him ، Until Besan comes down ، Al-Mahdi sends a banner to them ، The greatest banner in the time of the Mahdi was one hundred men ، They descend on Abraham's father ، So she describes her horses, her men, her camels, and her sheep ، If the two horses gloat ، Her dog is gone ، He took the stone and slaughtered it on the Safa, which lies on the face of the earth, near the church which is in the depths of the valley at the end of the stairs of Tur Zeta ، The bridge to the right of the valley on Al-Safa, which crosses the face of the earth ، It is slaughtered just as a sheep is slaughtered ، The one who is disappointed is the one who is disappointed on a dog’s day ، Until the virgin slave girl is sold for eight dirhams.”

After the Mahdi, there will be a caliph from the people of Yemen, from Qahtan, the Mahdi’s brother in religion, who will do his work, and he will conquer the city of Byzantium and seize its spoils. The people will be succeeded by a man from Banu Hashim in Jerusalem, who will extinguish traditions that were known and invent traditions that were not, until you will not find a scholar who narrates a single hadith. Al-Qatadad on a dark night, and he sends his daughter to go to the markets with her, wearing a blanket of gold. She cannot hide, coming or going. If a man spoke about that, his neck would be struck.

Abu Ayoub told us ، About Artaat ، About the one who told him about Ka'b ، He said: “A man from the Quraysh will be appointed as successor from the evil of creation ، He descends on Jerusalem ، The treasuries and noble people are transferred to him ، They are arrogant in it ، And his veil becomes tighter ، Their money is abundant ، Until one man feeds them for a month and the other for two or three months ، So that their lean person will be like the fat of all other people ، They grow up therein like calves reared on stalls ، And the Caliph extinguishes our age that was known ، And he innovates our age that was not ، Evil appears in his time ، Adultery appears ، And drink alcohol in public ، He frightened the scholars of his time with fear ، Even if a man rode a camel and then traveled around all the regions, he would not find a scholar among the scholars to tell him a hadith of knowledge out of fear. ، And in his time, there will be metamorphosis and eclipse ، Islam is strange ، The one who adheres to his religion is like holding a burning ember ، Or like the map of astragalus on a dark night ، Until it became his business to send his daughter through the market with the condition ، It has blankets of gold on it ، A garment that does not hide her, whether coming or going, due to its elegance ، If any of the people uttered a single word to denounce him, I would strike his neck ، It begins to deprive people of livelihood ، Then he prevents them from giving ، Then after that, he orders the expulsion of the people of Yemen from the Levant ، So the condition brings them out separately ، Do not let one soldier reach another until they have expelled them from the entire countryside ، They end up at Busra ، And that is at the end of his life ، The people of Yemen correspond with each other until they meet like an autumn gathering ، They set out from where they were to each other, team by team ، Then they say: Where will you go and leave your land and your immigrants? Their minds agree to pledge allegiance to one of them ، While they were saying: We pledge allegiance to so-and-so ، Rather, so-and-so ، When they heard a voice neither human nor jinn said: Pledge allegiance to so-and-so ، He names them ، So he was a man they were satisfied with ، I was convinced of it ، It is neither from nor from ، Then they would send a group of them to the mighty of Quraysh ، He kills them and brings back one of their men who tells them what happened ، Then the people of Yemen march to it ، And the mighty of Quraysh have twenty thousand of the police ، Then the people of Yemen marched, and Lakhm, Judham, Amila, and Jadis fought against them ، They bring them food and drink ، And a little and a lot ، On that day, they will be a help to Yemen, just as Joseph was a help to his brothers in Egypt ، By the one in whose hand is the same heel ، Lakhm, Jadham, Amila, and Jadis are among the people of Yemen ، O people of Yemen ، If they come to you seeking their lineage from you, pray for them ، They are from you ، Then they all walk until they overlook Jerusalem ، Then the mighty of Quraysh met them ، In crowds ، The people of Yemen defeat them ، And they do not support the people of Yemen if a man is satisfied with his clothing in battle.”

The Romans will enter the Holy House with seventy crosses until they demolish it, and obedience will continue to be practiced as long as the caliphate is in the land of Jerusalem and the Levant. The first coast that Allah will be angry with will be eclipsed by Al-Sarfiyya, Caesarea, and Beirut. The Romans and the Levant will rule for forty days from the seashore to the Jordan and Beit Shean. Then the Muslims will gain victory over them. They will reconcile it until their authority over them runs out, and the entire earth will be secure for seven-nine days.

Ibn Wahb told us ، On the authority of Ibn Lahia ، Walith bin Saad ، On the authority of Khalid bin Yazid ، On the authority of Saeed bin Abi Hilal ، On the authority of Abu Salamah ، On the authority of Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-Aas ، He said: “A boy will grow up in the Romans who will grow young in one year, as young as a boy in ten years ، So it will be in Roman land and the Romans will own it for themselves ، He says: Until when will we defeat these people over a part of our land? I will go out and fight them until I defeat them for what they have defeated, or they will defeat me for what remains under my feet. ، He will depart in seven thousand ships until he is between Akka and Al-Arish ، Then he sets fire to his ships ، Then the people of Egypt will leave Egypt ، The people of the Levant are from the Levant ، Until they reach the Arabian Peninsula ، That was the day when Abu Hurairah used to say: Woe to the Arabs because of the evil that has approached ، On that day, the rope and the helmet are dearer to the man than his family and wealth ، The Arabs seek help from their Bedouins ، Then they walk until they reach the depths of Antioch ، It will be the greatest of epics until the horses go to their knees ، And Allah raises victory over everyone until the angels say: O Lord ، Do you not support your faithful servants? He says: Until their martyrs increase ، A third is killed ، A third is returned ، And a third is patient ، Then Allah will lose the third that is returned ، The Romans say: We will continue fighting you until you come out to us, every few of you who are not among you ، Then the non-Arabs come out and say: Allah forbid that we go into disbelief after Islam ، That is when Allah Almighty becomes angry and strikes with his sword ، And stabbed with his spear ، There is no informant left among them except he is killed ، Then they move on ، They do not pass by a city without opening it with the takbir ، Until they come to the city of Rum and find its bay, Batha ، Then Allah Almighty will open it for them ، On that day, such-and-such and such a virgin will be removed ، ، ، They meet him at Elia's house ، They find that he has confined eight thousand women and twelve thousand fighters there ، ، ، ،

The Lord approaches the sky and returns the water to his element, and the earth trembles, and the people bow down with their faces prostrated, and free most of their slaves. Then it calms down for a while, then returns, and it shakes its people more severely than the first time, and they free most of their slaves. Then it cracks and eclipses a portion of the earth, its valleys, and the people, to the point that a man walks and passes through the neighborhood and they are unharmed, and others are eclipsed by them, and the two men will grind, and a thunderbolt will strike them, and one of them will die, or They will also be afflicted in their sleep, and the earth will suffer an earthquake like the burrows of a hard stallion, until the people of the cities and villages take refuge in the mountains and are with the wild beasts, and the jewels of the earth will cram their gold and silver into Jerusalem, and until the man and woman open the baskets and basins and they will not find any of their jewellery, and the wood and roof of Jerusalem will rattle, the pastures and animals will perish, the kingdom of the peninsula and Armenia will be cut off, their trees will wither, and their animals will perish from the earth. The earthquake, and satiates them with hunger, and the man even rebels and takes off from his place and escapes three times, all of that is returned to his place, so his last take-off and escape is to Tiberias, so he leaps upon it, and seeks refuge with Allah in His holy name not to bring him back and make him poor.

It will be in the time of Al-Hashemi, who will be arrogant in Jerusalem after Al-Mahdi, who will send a slave girl wearing clothing that does not cover her. In his time, there will be trembling, disfigurement, and eclipse.
