کتاب الفتن · نُعیم بن حماد

Ibn Wahb told us, on the authority of Ishaq ibn Yahya, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Bishr ibn Hisham, on the authority of Ibn al-Musayyab, he said: “There will be a turmoil in the Levant, as if the beginning of it was boys’ playing, then the affairs of the people would not be settled on anything, and they would not have a group until a caller called out from the sky: ‘You are upon so-and-so,’ and a hand appears indicating.”
