I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the pulpit saying, "Verily, afflictions (will start) from here," pointing towards the east, "whence the side of the head of Satan comes out."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ وَهْوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ أَلاَ إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَا هُنَا يُشِيرُ إِلَى الْمَشْرِقِ مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ

I saw Messenger of Allah ﷺ pointing towards the east saying, "Lo! Afflictions will verily emerge hence; afflictions will verily emerge hence where the (side of the head of) Satan appears."
رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُشِيرُ إِلَى الْمَشْرِقِ فَقَالَ هَا إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَا هُنَا إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَا هُنَا مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ
I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was facing the East, saying, "Verily! Afflictions are there, from where the side of the head of Satan comes out."
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهْوَ مُسْتَقْبِلٌ الْمَشْرِقَ يَقُولُ أَلاَ إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَا هُنَا مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ
that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say as he was facing East, "Behold, turmoil would appear from this side, from where the horns of Satan would appear."
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ مُسْتَقْبِلُ الْمَشْرِقِ يَقُولُ أَلاَ إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَا هُنَا أَلاَ إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَا هُنَا مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ
Malik related to me from Abdullah ibn Dinar that Abdullah ibn Umar said, "I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pointing at the east and saying, 'The cause of dissension is here. The cause of dissension is here, from where the helpers of shaytan arise.' "
أَنَّهُ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُشِيرُ إِلَى الْمَشْرِقِ وَيَقُولُ هَا إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَا هُنَا إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَا هُنَا مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ
[Machine] Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up to deliver a sermon and said, "Indeed, the turmoil is here, from where the horn of Satan rises, meaning the east."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَامَ يَخْطُبُ فَقَالَ أَلَا وَإِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَاهُنَا مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ يَعْنِي الْمَشْرِقَ
Behold, turmoil would appear from this side, from where the horns of Satan would appear. (Using translation from Muslim 2905a)
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ مُسْتَقْبِلٌ الْمَشْرِقَ يَقُولُ أَلَا إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَاهُنَا أَلَا إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَاهُنَا مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ
I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the pulpit saying, "Verily, afflictions (will start) from here," pointing towards the east, "whence the side of the head of Satan comes out." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3511)
سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ أَلَا إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هُنَا يُشِيرُ إِلَى الْمَشْرِقِ مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ
I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying while pointing his hands towards the east: The turmoil would appear from this side; verily, the turmoil would appear from this side (he repeated it thrice) where appear the horns of Satan. (Using translation from Muslim 2905e)
رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يُشِيرُ إِلَى الْمَشْرِقِ وَيَقُولُ هَا إِنَّ الْفِتَنَ هَاهُنَا إِنَّ الْفِتَنَ هَاهُنَا حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ
Behold, turmoil would appear from this side, from where the horns of Satan would appear. (Using translation from Muslim 2905a)
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ يَقُولُ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُشِيرُ إِلَى الْمَشْرِقِ وَيَقُولُ «إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هُنَا إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هُنَا مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ»
"أَلَا إِنَّ الفتنة هَهُنَا يُشِير إِلَىِ المَشْرِقِ مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلعُ قَرنُ الشَّيْطَانِ".
