کتاب الفتن · نُعیم بن حماد

His cause is ignited in Homs, and he kindles it in Damascus, and his passion is in the war of Banu Abbas

Al-Sufyani defeats the group twice, accepts the tribute, and takes captive the offspring, and they slaughter a woman from the Quraysh, with which he rips open the stomachs of the women of Bani Hashim, then he dies, and then a rebel from the family of that woman arises after years called Abdullah. He never worshiped Allah Almighty. He is the most vile of creatures, deformed, cursed. Whoever follows him and calls for him will be cursed by the people of heaven and the people of earth. He is the son of the eater of livers. He comes to Damascus, sits on its pulpit, and catches fire. He commanded him to go to Homs, and to light a fire in Damascus, and that is when two men from the Abbasids are removed, and they are the two branches, and when the second one is different, Al-Sufyani emerges, young in age, curly-haired, white, with a long body, and his middle finger is shaved, and there will be clashes between him and them in the Levant, and he will take the women of the Abbasids captive until he brings them to Damascus.
