[Machine] Al-Qa'nabi narrated that Kathir bin Abdullah alMuzani reported to us, and Ali bin alMubarak alSan'ani narrated to us, reporting from Ismail bin Abi Uwais, reporting from Kathir bin Abdullah, who reported from his father, who reported from his grandfather, who said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'The world will not pass away until there is a bond of Muslims with Bilan (a place), O Ali.' Ali bin Abi Talib said, 'At your service, O Messenger of Allah.' He ﷺ said, 'You will fight the Banu Asfar (a tribe) and those who come after you from the believers will also fight them. Then the cavalry of the Muslims, the people of Hijaz who fight in the cause of Allah, will emerge to fight them. They will not be blamed by Allah for anything until Allah grants them the conquest of Constantinople and Rome through praise and glorification. Then Allah will destroy their fort and they will attain a great amount of wealth that they have never attained before. Indeed, they will divide it among themselves. Then a caller will shout, 'O people of Islam, the Dajjal (Antichrist) has emerged in your land.' People will become so engrossed in wealth that among them will be those who take and those who abandon. Regrettably, the taker will regret, and the abandoner will regret. Then they will say, 'Who is this caller?' They will not know who he is. So they will say, 'Send a vanguard to Lud, perhaps the Dajjal has come out, and he will bring knowledge to you.' They will go and see, but they will not find anything, and they will see people remaining silent. They will say, 'The caller only called to us.' So prepare yourselves and give guidance. We all will go to Lud, and if indeed the Dajjal is there, we will fight him until Allah passes His judgment between us and him, and He is the best of judges. And if it is not the case, it is your land, your tribes, and your armies, and you will return to it."

[Machine] Al-Qa'nabi reported from Kathir ibn Abdullah al-Muzani, from his father, from his grandfather, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, you will fight the Banu Asfar, and you will kill them, and the believers who come after you will also fight them, and the believers who strive in the way of Allah will go out to fight them. Do not blame them in the sight of Allah until Allah opens Constantinople and Rome for them with tasbih (glorification of Allah) and takbir (saying Allahu Akbar). Its fortresses will be destroyed and they will gain immense wealth, which they will distribute with the measurement scale. Then a caller will cry out, 'O people of Islam, the Dajjal (Antichrist) has emerged in your lands and among your progeny!' They will say, 'Who is this caller?' They will not know who he is, so they will say, 'Look and guide us.' They will send a vanguard to Lud, and if the Dajjal has emerged, he will bring knowledge from him. They will then send the vanguard to Lud. They will say, 'Let's go to them,' and if it is the other (i.e., not the Dajjal), they will fight them until Allah judges between us, and He is the best of judges. And if it is the other, then it is your lands and your tribes to which you have returned."
