يأتي جيش من قبل المغرب يريدون هذا البيت، حتى إذا كانوا بالبيداء خسف بهم، فيرجع من كان أمامهم لينظر ما فعل القوم، فيصيبهم ما أصابهم، ويلحق بهم من خلفهم لينظر ما فعلوه فيصيبهم ما أصابهم، فمن كان مستكرها أصابهم ما أصابهم، ثم يبعث الله تعالى كل امرئ منهم على نيته

An army comes from the west, seeking this house, until when they are in Al-Bayda, it eclipses them, and whoever was in front of them returns to see what the people did, and what befell them will happen to them, and he follows them behind them to see what they did, and what befell them will befall them. Whoever was hiding it will be hit by what befell them, then Allah Almighty will resurrect each one of them according to his intention.

يبعث إلى مكة جيش من الشام حتى إذا كانوا بالبيداء خسف بهم

A'isha reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was startled in the state of sleep. We said:Allah's Messenger, you have done something in the state of your sleep which you never did before, Thereupon he said: Strange it is that some people of my Ummah would attack the House (Ka'ba) (for killing) a person who would belong to the tribe of the Quraish and he would try to seek protection in the House. And when they would reach the plain ground they would be sunk. We said: Allah's Messenger, all sorts of people throng the path. Thereupon he said: Yes, there would be amongst them people who would come with definite designs and those who would come under duress and there would be travellers also, but they would all be destroyed through one (stroke) of destruction. though they would be raised in different states (on the Day of Resurrection). Allah would, however, raise them according to their intention
