کتاب الفتن · نُعیم بن حماد

I warn you of seven trials that will come after me: a trial that will come from Medina, a trial from Mecca, a trial that will come from Yemen, a trial that will come from the Levant, a trial that will come from the East, a trial that will come from the West, and a trial that will come from the interior of the Levant, which is the trial of the Sufyani.

O people of Yemen, you say that Al-Mansur is one of you, but no, by the One in whose hand is my soul, he is my father’s Quraysh, and if he wished for me to attribute him to the furthest ancestor who is his, I would have done so.

Al-Walid bin Muslim told us, on the authority of Jarrah, on the authority of Artat, he said: “The prince of the tribe is neither from a tribe nor a family, but they hear a voice that neither human nor jinn said: They pledged allegiance to so-and-so in his name, who is neither from a tribe nor a family, but rather a Yemeni caliph.” Al-Walid said: And according to Ka’b’s knowledge, he is a Yamani Qurayshi, and he is the prince of the tribe, and the tribe is the people of Yemen and those who follow them from all those who were expelled from Jerusalem.

I was a man from the people of Mecca, and I had my birth, my home, and my money. I did not stay there until Allah Almighty sent His Prophet, ﷺ. So I believed in him and followed him, so I stayed there as long as Allah wanted me to stay. Then I left it and fled with my religion to Medina, and I did not stay there until Allah gathered my money and family for me, and today I am fleeing with my religion from Medina to Mecca just as I fled with my religion from Mecca to Medina.

Abdullah bin Marwan told us, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Abu Al-Hawsa, on the authority of Tawus, he said: “There will be three tremors: a severe tremor in the Yemen, a stronger tremor in the Levant, and a tremor in the East, which is Al-Jahf, and it was in the Yemen and the Levant, but it was not in the East.”

If the temptation of the Maghreb comes, then put your sandals on for Yemen, for no other land will protect you from it

Let the people of the Maghreb rule Homs for sixteen months. If the Maghreb is tempted, then strap your sandals to Yemen, for no other land will protect you from it.

The people of the Maghreb will rule Homs for sixteen months. If the turmoil of the Maghreb breaks out, then head towards Yemen, for no other land will protect you from it.

Your banner and the banner of your people will be covered in spots on that day, and Allah will appear over them

The leaders of the Mahdi are the best of people. The people who supported him and pledged allegiance to him were from the people of Kufan ​​and Yemen, and the Abdal of the Levant. His leader was Gabriel, and his leader was Michael. He is beloved among creation. Allah Almighty will extinguish blind strife, and the earth will be secure, so much so that a woman will perform Hajj with five women who do not have a man with her. She does not fear anything except Allah. She gives the earth her alms, and the sky her blessing.

The Mahdi is only from the Quraysh, and the caliphate is only among them, except that he has origin and lineage in Yemen

Al-Mahdi dies a death, then the people will follow him after him, a man from his family in whom there is good and evil, and his evil is greater than his good. He angers the people, calls them to disunity after the group, his survival is short, a man from his family revolts against him and kills him, and the people after him fight intensely, and the one who killed him after him remains for a short time, then he dies a death, then a man from Mudar from the east follows them, he makes the people infidels, and expels them from their religion, the people of Yemen fight fiercely in Mesopotamia. Allah will defeat him and those with him

Abdullah bin Marwan told us, on the authority of Saeed bin Yazid al-Tanukhi, on the authority of al-Zuhri, who said: “The Mahdi dies, then the people fall into strife after him, and a man from Banu Makhzum comes to them and pledges allegiance to him. He stays for a while, then withholds provision and finds no one to change it for him. Then he withholds giving and finds no one to change it for him. He descends on Jerusalem, and he and his companions are like rearing calves, and their women walk in golden ducks, and clothes of gold.” They hide, and he finds no one to attack him, so he orders the expulsion of the people of Yemen: Qada`ah, Madhaj, Hamdan, Himyar, Azd, Ghassan, and all who are called from Yemen. So he expels them until they descend on the reefs of Palestine, so that Jadis, Lakhm, Judham, and the people return to them in droves from those mountains with food and drink, so that they may be relieved just as Joseph was relief to his brothers, when a herald called from the sky, not a human or a jinn: Pledge your allegiance. So-and-so, do not return on your heels after the migration, and they look but do not recognize the man. Then he calls three, then he pledges allegiance to Al-Mansur, so he sends ten delegations to Al-Makhzoumi, and he kills nine and leaves one, then he sends five, and he kills four and leaves one, then he sends three, and he kills two and leaves one, and he marches to him, and Allah grants him victory over him, so Allah kills him and those with him, and only the fugitive escapes, and he does not leave a Quraysh without killing him, and then he seeks a Quraysh, but there is no Just as a man today seeks someone from Jurhum and is not found, so you kill Quraysh and they are not found again.”

Al-Walid bin Muslim told us ، About the one who told him about Ka'b ، He said: “The people of Yemen are fighting fiercely in Mesopotamia ، Allah will defeat him and those with him ، The people of the East and those with him are terrified only by the dead floating on the river ، They know of their defeat ، Their rider heads to Yemen as they descend between the two rivers ، Then Allah Almighty and those with him will appear ، And people's affairs will be fixed ، Their words come together happily ، Then they walk until they reach the Levant ، They stay for a period of time in a righteous state ، Then Qais revolts against them ، The people of Yemen kill them until anyone thinks that there is no Qais left ، Then a man from the people of Yemen rises and says: Allah, Allah, for your brothers ، Allah and the rest ، Then Qays went with those who remained of it until they came down between the two rivers ، They gather a great crowd ، They will be put in charge of a man from Banu Makhzum ، Then the governor of Yemen dies ، Qais rejoices at his death ، The Makhzoumi continued until the last of them crossed the Euphrates, and the Makhzoumi died ، Yemen will become separate ، Measure separately ، Then the loyalists get angry, and they are the majority of people on that day ، They say: Come, let us appoint a man from the people of religion to me ، They will send a group of people from Yemen ، And a bunch of harmful ، And a group of people who are loyal to Jerusalem ، They recite the Book of Allah Almighty and ask Him for good ، Then those people return, having appointed a man from among the loyalists as their guardian ، So woe to the people in the Levant and its land due to his guardianship ، He goes to Mudar and wants to fight them ، Then a man from Morocco walks ، A tall, powerful man with broad shoulders ، He kills whoever he meets until he enters the Holy House ، Then the animal hits him ، He dies a death ، So the world will be as evil as it was ، Then after him comes a man from Mudar ، He kills righteous people ، Ominous cursed ، Then after him comes Al-Madari Al-Omani Al-Qahtani ، He follows the path of his brother Mahdi ، And at his hands the city of Rum will be conquered.” Abu Abdullah Naeem said: He emerges from a village called Yakli, behind Sana’a, at a stage. ، His father is Qureshi ، His mother is Yemeni

Al-Walid told us, on the authority of Ibn Lahi’ah, on the authority of Al-Harith bin Yazid Al-Hadrami, on the authority of Al-Fadl bin Afif Al-Du’ali, on the authority of Abdullah bin Amr, that he said: “O people of Yemen, you say: Al-Mansour is among you, and by the One in whose hand my soul is, he is his father’s Quraysh, and if I wanted to name him to the fullest extent that is his, I would have done so.”

Baqiyya and Abd al-Quddus told us, on the authority of Abu Bakr, on the authority of al-Mashikha, on the authority of Ka’b, who said: “If Yemen kills the owner of Bayt al-Maqdis, they will go to the Quraysh and kill them, and not one of them will remain without killing him, until one of their sandals is damaged and it is said: This is a Quraysh sandal.”

An angel comes down to Jerusalem and tramples over it until he wears the crown, and he is the one who expels the people of Yemen, and it is as if I am looking at the rock on which the owner of Yemen is sitting. They send a man to him as a messenger, and he kills him, then another man, and he kills him. When they see that, they make a contract with one of them, then they walk until they reach him and kill him.

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.

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

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."

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.

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.
