Kitab al-Fitan · Nu'aym ibn Hammad

There are six times before the Hour, the first of which is my death, then the conquest of Jerusalem, then a place that my nation will descend from the Levant, then a trial will fall upon you. No Arab house will remain without entering it, then the Romans will make peace with you.

Rome will be opened with ropes of Besan, wood of Lebanon, and nails of Meris, and you will take the knife of the ark, and the people of the Levant and the people of Egypt will cast ballots over it, and it will fly to the people of Egypt.
