کتاب الفتن · نُعیم بن حماد

O Auf, count six before the Hour, the first of which is my death

Muhammad ibn Shapur told us, on the authority of Al-Numan ibn Al-Mundhir, on the authority of Makhul, on the authority of Awf ibn Malik, he said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, said to me: “Six are before the Hour, the first of which is the death of your Prophet, say: one, the second is the conquest of Jerusalem, the third is death that will fall upon you like the shearing of sheep, the fourth is a strife between you, no Arab house will remain without entering it, and the fifth is a truce between you and the Banu Al-Asfar, so they will gather for you the number of a woman’s pregnancy of nine months.”

There are six times before the Hour, the first of which is my death, then the conquest of Jerusalem, then a place that my nation will descend from the Levant, then a trial will fall upon you. No Arab house will remain without entering it, then the Romans will make peace with you.

People will emigrate, one migration after another, to the migrant of Abraham (peace be upon him), and the Hour will only come upon the worst of people, upon a people whom the Spirit of Allah has filthy, rejected by their land, and the Fire will gather them with apes and pigs. It will descend where they have settled, and will lodge where they have spent the night, and it will have what falls from them.
