کتاب الفتن · نُعیم بن حماد

The Mahdi will descend in Bayt al-Maqdis, then there will be caliphs from his family after him, their term will be prolonged, and they will be arrogant until the people pray against the Banu Abbas and the Banu Umayyad from what they receive from them.

Muhammad bin Abdullah Al-Tahirti told us, on the authority of Abd al-Salam bin Maslama, on the authority of Abu Qabil, who said: “After the Mahdi, there will not be anyone from his family who treats the people justly, and their oppression of the people after the Mahdi will continue until the people pray for the Abbasids and say: I wish they were in their place. So the people will continue like this until they invade Constantinople with their governor, who is a righteous man and hand it over to Jesus son of Mary (peace be upon him), and the people will continue to be in prosperity unless The rule of the Abbasids will be destroyed, and if their rule is destroyed, they will not cease to be in turmoil until the Mahdi arises.”

Days will not pass until a caliph from the Quraysh descends on Jerusalem, gathering all his people from the Quraysh in their position and position, and they exaggerate in their affairs and enjoy their possessions, until they make gold and silver sills for their homes, and the lands are developed for them, and the nations are indebted to them, and the tribute is paid for them, and the wars bear their burdens.

A man from Banu Hashim descends on Jerusalem, guarded by twelve thousand people

His guard was thirty-six thousand, and twelve thousand on each road to Jerusalem

His life will be long, he will be arrogant, his veil will become tight at the end of his time, and his wealth and the wealth of his will increase, until he becomes as fat as the rest of the Muslims, and he will extinguish our previously known traditions, and he will innovate things that were not, and he will commit adultery and drink alcohol openly. He will frighten scholars to the point that a man will ride his camel and then go to Egypt from the regions where he will not find a man to speak to him with a knowledgeable hadith, and Islam will be strange in his time, as it began to be strange, on that day. The one who adheres to his religion is like one holding a burning ember, until it becomes his command to send a slave girl who arrives in the markets wearing blankets of gold, meaning socks, and with her a condition, that she must wear clothing that does not cover her, coming and going, and if a man says a word about that, I will strike his neck.

Al-Walid said, “Abd al-Rahman ibn Yazid ibn Jabir informed me, on the authority of al-Qasim Abi Abd al-Rahman. He said: ‘Let them surround this mosque of yours with a slave girl whose hair can be seen behind her dress. Let a man from among the people say: By Allah, this is evil of guidance,’ and he will have intercourse with that man until he dies. I wish I were that man.”

In his time, there will be trembling, distortion, and collapse. The beginning of his time is for you, O people of Yemen, and the end of it is upon you, until he orders the expulsion of the people of Yemen, the Levant, and Al-Hamra, and they go out, until they end up at the outskirts of the countryside from where they were expelled.

Al-Walid told us, on the authority of Omar bin Muhammad bin Zaid bin Abdullah bin Omar, on the authority of Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: “When people gathered in Wadi Iliya, Nizar said: O Nizar, and Qahtan said: O Qahtan, send down patience, raise victory, and impose iron on one another.”

If you realize that, you will be with the people of Yemen and they will prevail

Qais does not cease to seek the religion of Allah for evil until Allah drives her with His soldiers, so they do not prevent the tail - the belly - of Talah. O brother Muharib, if you see Qais marching in the Levant, be careful.

Al-Walid told us, on the authority of Yazid bin Saeed, on the authority of Yazid bin Abi Ata, on the authority of Ka’b, who said: “When the war has ended, Mudar will say to the Qurashi who is in Jerusalem: Allah has given you what He did not give to anyone else, so confine it to your father’s children. So he says: Whoever is from the people of Yemen, let him join his right, and whoever is from the Persians, let him join Antioch, and we have postponed you three times, so whoever does not do that has sacrificed his blood.” He said: Then Yemen will join Zubra. And the Persians in Antioch, he said: While the Yemenis were in Zubra, when they heard a caller calling from the night: O Mansour, O Mansour, so the people went out to the sound and did not find anyone, then he called for the second night, then the third. He said: They gathered and said: O people, will you return to the Bedouins after the migration, and you will return on your heels, leaving behind your struggle and your plans, and the home of your migration, and the graves of your dead? He said: So they will return. "They have a man."

So they gathered and looked to whom they would pledge allegiance to, and while they were there, when they heard a voice said by neither a human nor a jinn, they pledged allegiance to so-and-so in his name, neither of any kind, but of a Yemeni caliph.

Al-Walid said: Ka’b said: “He is a Yemeni from Quraysh, and he is the prince of the Assab, and the Assab is degrading the people of Yemen and those who followed them from all those who left Bayt al-Maqdis, and that is the saying of Tabba’: And I love him half as much as our people... You will return to the kingdom after the hardship of this fleeting successor in... the light of the crowds and the gathering of the Assab.”

Then the people of Yemen will go out to the front of the earth and settle on Lakhm and Jadham, and will comfort them in their livelihood until they are equal in it.

So Lakhm, Leprosy, Jadis, and Amila will be Mughtha to them on that day, just as Yusuf was Mughtha to the family of Yaqub. So Yemen and Al-Hamra, who are the loyal ones, correspond, and they will gather together in a group like the gathering of autumn clouds, meaning the intermittent clouds.

Abu Muawiyah, Abu Usama, and Yahya bin Al-Yaman told us, on the authority of Al-A’mash, on the authority of Ibrahim Al-Taymi, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: “Religion is diminished until no one says: There is no god but Allah, and some of them said: Until it is not said: Allah is Allah.” Then the dragonfly strikes religion with its tail, then Allah sends a people with a patchwork like the autumn’s patchwork. Indeed, I know the name of their prince, and the climate of their passengers.

Whoever can die after the prince of the clan, let him die

Ibn Wahb told us, on the authority of Ibn Anam, on the authority of Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Hubali, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Amr, who said: “Three princes succeed one another, and all the lands are conquered over them. All of them are righteous: al-Jabir, then al-Mufarraj, then Dhu al-Asab. They stay for forty years, and then there is no good in this world after them.”

Baqiyya ibn al-Walid, Abd al-Quddus, and Abdullah ibn Marwan told us, on the authority of Abu Bakr ibn Abi Maryam, on the authority of al-Mushaykhah, on the authority of Ka’b, who said: “The person responsible for the evacuation of the people of Yemen is a man from Banu Hashim, whose home is Jerusalem, and his guard is twelve thousand. He evacuates the people of Yemen until they reach the front of the land, and they descend on lakhm and leprosy and comfort them in their livelihoods until they become equal therein. Then the people of Yemen accept each other, and they say: Where will you go? And when will you return? Then a man from among them will delegate them, and he will say: I am your messenger to this ruler of yours, and he will go until he is presented to him in Jerusalem with their letter and their message to relieve them and return them to their homes, and he will order that he be beheaded. If he delays, they send another man against them. When he arrives at them, he orders that he be beheaded, and if he delays, they send another man, who orders that he be beheaded, so Allah Almighty will save him until he comes to them, and he informs them of killing his two companions, and he did not want. Whoever killed him, then they gather and appoint a leader from among them over them, then they march to him and fight him, and Allah Almighty gives them victory over him and they kill him. Then they attack the Quraysh, and not a Quraysh remains unless they kill him, until one of their sandals is damaged and it is said: This is a Quraysh sandal.”

Mudar meets, I don’t know whether Rabia’a follows them or not, and the people of Yemen meet in Wadi Ilya, and they fight, and Mudar is killed until the valley flows with their blood.

Qais accepted that day until nothing remained of them to fill the bottom of a valley, nor the top of a hill

I have heard that the Mahdi will stay for fourteen years in Jerusalem, then he will die, and then after him he will be of honorable mention from the people of Tabi’. He is called Mansour in Jerusalem. Twenty-one years, fifteen of which are justice, three years of oppression, and three years of which are deprivation of property. No one is given a dirham. The people of the Dhimma are divided among those who fight him. He is the one who exiles the loyal ones to the depths of the depths. He is the one who tramples the son of Ishmael like the rarest cow is trampled upon. A prophet, and his nickname is the nickname of a prophet. He goes to him from the depths until he meets a victor in the depths of Jericho, and he fights him and kills him. Then the Lord reigns and banishes the sons of Qahtan and the sons of Ismail, to the two cities of Kanz al-Arab, Medina and Sana’a. He is the one who will expel the Turks and the Romans at his hands until they rule from the depths of Antioch to Mount Carmel in Palestine in the meadow of the city of Acre. The Lord reigns for three years, then he is killed, and after him Haim the Second Mahdi will reign. Who kills the Romans and defeats them, and conquers Constantinople, and resides there for three years, four months and ten days, then Jesus, son of Mary (peace be upon him), descends and the kingdom is handed over to him.

Your affairs will be handled by young men from Quraish, who will be like the heifers tending to the stalls. If they let go, they will eat what is in their hands, and if they let go, they will gore whoever they catch.

O people of Yemen, yes, by the Lord of the Kaaba, what is the matter with you that you do not speak? Rather, we are
