کتاب الفتن · نُعیم بن حماد

On the authority of Ibn Wahb, on the authority of Omar ibn Malik al-Sharabi, on the authority of Ibn al-Haad, he said: Omar ibn al-Hakam ibn Thawban told me, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-Aas, who said: “The animal emerges from a mountain with horseshoes, its head touching the clouds, and its feet have not come out of the ground, until it comes to the man while he is praying and says: What is prayer of your need? This is nothing but an excuse and hypocrisy, so it muzzles him.”

The companions of Jesus, son of Mary (peace be upon him), who fought with him the Dajjal after the appearance of the beast of the earth, will enjoy forty years of blessings and security.

Nu'aym told us, 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 Abdullah, on the authority of the Prophet ﷺ who said: “The animal comes out after sunrise, and when it comes out, the animal kills Satan while he is prostrating, and the believers will enjoy the earth after that for forty years, not wishing for anything except they give it and find it, so there is no injustice, no injustice, and things have been submitted to the Lord of the Worlds.” Voluntarily and unwillingly, and the believers willingly, and the unbelievers by force, and the lions, and the birds by force, until the lion does not harm an animal or a bird, and a believer is born and does not die until he completes forty years after the emergence of an animal on the ground, then death returns among them and they remain thus as long as Allah wills, then death speeds up among the believers and no believer remains, so the unbeliever says: We were terrified of the believers and not one of them remained, and no repentance is accepted from us, so why should we not run away in the ways? The animals are playing around. One of them gets up with his mother, sister, and daughter and has sex in the middle of the road. One gets up on her and the other goes down on her, neither denying nor changing. The best of them on that day will be the one who says: If you had gotten out of the way, it would have been better. And they will do that until none of the children of the marriage remain, and all the people of the earth will be the children of the incest, and they will remain thus as long as Allah wills. Then Allah will sterilize the women’s wombs for thirty years, so that no woman will give birth, and there will be no child on the earth, and they will all be children. Adultery is the worst of people, and upon them the Hour will come.”

Nu`aym told us, then Damra, on the authority of Ibn Shawdhab, he said: Omar said: “The animal will not leave until there is no believer left on the land, and recite, if you wish, {And when the word falls upon them, We will bring forth for them an animal from the earth} [An-Naml: 82] the verse.”

The animal emerges from a crack in the clearing, where the horse has been present for three days, but a third of it does not emerge

The animal comes out

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:“The Beast will emerge and will have with it the seal of Sulaiman bin Dawud and the staff of Musa bin ‘Imran (as). It will make the faces of the believers shine with the staff, and will mark the noses of the disbelievers with the seal, until the inhabitants of a cluster of houses will gather together; then one will say ‘O believer!’ And to another ‘O disbeliever.’”

An animal of the earth, a lizard with fur, whose face reaches toward the sky

The animal comes out of Ajyad

The animal comes out on the night of a gathering. They walk to the gathering, and the animal comes out, and its neck is male in length, so do not leave a hypocrite except for its muzzle.

The animal emerges from a crack in Safa

When they do not enjoin good nor forbid evil, they are neighbors in slavery, partners in wealth, and companions in travels. You never curse a people except that what you say is due upon them. The beast comes out and the signs come seven months after Jesus (peace be upon him).
