کتاب الفتن · نُعیم بن حماد

If Al-Sufyani appears against Al-Aqba’, Al-Mansur, Al-Kindi, the Turks, and the Romans, he leaves and becomes in Iraq, and then the century of Dhul-Shifa rises, then Abdullah will perish, and the deposed will be deposed, and he will be affiliated with people in the city of Zawra out of ignorance, then Al-Akhs will appear on the city by force, and he will kill a great mass there, and will kill six rams from the Abbas family, and slaughter there a patient slaughter, then he will go out to Kufa.

Abu Omar told us, on the authority of Ibn Lahi’ah, on the authority of Abdul Wahhab bin Hussein, on the authority of Muhammad bin Thabit, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Al-Harith, on the authority of Ibn Masoud (may Allah be pleased with him), on the authority of the Prophet (may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him) who said: “If the Sufyani crosses the Euphrates and reaches a place called Aqarqufa, Allah Almighty will erase faith from his heart, and he will be killed with it to a river called Al-Dujail seventy thousand wearing adorned swords, and more, and they will appear on the House of Gold, so they kill the female fighter and the heroes, and open the stomachs of the women, saying: Perhaps she is pregnant with a boy. Women from the Quraysh on the shore of the Tigris are crying out for help to the people of the ships passing by, asking them to carry them until they bring them to the people, so do not carry them out of hatred for the Banu Hashim, so do not hate the Banu Hashim, for among them is the Prophet of Mercy, and among them is the pilot in Paradise. As for the women, when the night overwhelms them, they take refuge in its depths in a place of fear. The immoral people, then the support of victory will come to them until they rescue the offspring and women of Sufyani from Baghdad and Kufa.”
