By Him in Whose hand is my life, the son of Mary ﷺ will soon descend among you as a just judge. He will break crosses, kill swine and abolish Jizya and the wealth will pour forth to such an extent that no one will accept it.  

مسلم:١٥٥aحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَيُوشِكَنَّ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ فِيكُمُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ ﷺ حَكَمًا مُقْسِطًا فَيَكْسِرَ الصَّلِيبَ وَيَقْتُلَ الْخِنْزِيرَ وَيَضَعَ الْجِزْيَةَ وَيَفِيضَ الْمَالُ حَتَّى لاَ يَقْبَلَهُ أَحَدٌ

" impartial leader and just judge" and in the tradition narrated by Yunus: the" judge judging with justice" and" impartial leader" are not mentioned. And in the hadith narrated by Salih like the one transmitted by Laith the words are:" impartial judge". And in the hadith transmitted by Ziyad the words are:" Till one sajda is better than the worldand what it contains. Then Abu Huraira used to say," recite" if you like: Not one of the People of the Book will fail to believe in him before his death.  

مسلم:١٥٥bوَحَدَّثَنَاهُ عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ح وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يُونُسُ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ وَعَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنْ صَالِحٍ كُلُّهُمْ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ إِمَامًا مُقْسِطًا وَحَكَمًا عَدْلاً وَفِي رِوَايَةِ يُونُسَ حَكَمًا عَادِلاً وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ إِمَامًا مُقْسِطًا وَفِي حَدِيثِ صَالِحٍ حَكَمًا مُقْسِطًا كَمَا قَالَ

اللَّيْثُ وَفِي حَدِيثِهِ مِنَ الزِّيَادَةِ وَحَتَّى تَكُونَ السَّجْدَةُ الْوَاحِدَةُ خَيْرًا مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ اقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ { وَإِنْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ إِلاَّ لَيُؤْمِنَنَّ بِهِ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ} الآيَةَ

I swear by Allah that the son of Mary will certainly descend as a just judge and he would definitely break the cross, and kill swine and abolish Jizya and would leave the young she-camel and no one would endeavour to (collect Zakat on it). Spite, mutual hatred and jealousy against one another will certainly disappear and when he summons people to accept wealth, not even one would do so.  

مسلم:١٥٥cحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ مِينَاءَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَاللَّهِ لَيَنْزِلَنَّ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ حَكَمًا عَادِلاً فَلَيَكْسِرَنَّ الصَّلِيبَ وَلَيَقْتُلَنَّ الْخِنْزِيرَ وَلَيَضَعَنَّ الْجِزْيَةَ وَلَتُتْرَكَنَّ الْقِلاَصُ فَلاَ يُسْعَى عَلَيْهَا وَلَتَذْهَبَنَّ الشَّحْنَاءُ وَالتَّبَاغُضُ وَالتَّحَاسُدُ وَلَيَدْعُوَنَّ إِلَى الْمَالِ فَلاَ يَقْبَلُهُ أَحَدٌ

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What will be your state when ˹Jesus˺ the son of Mary descends amongst you and there will be an Imām (leader) amongst you?"  

مسلم:١٥٥dحَدَّثَنِي حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ مَوْلَى أَبِي قَتَادَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «كَيْفَ أَنْتُمْ إِذَا نَزَلَ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ فِيكُمْ وَإِمَامُكُمْ مِنْكُمْ؟»

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What would you do when ˹Jesus˺ the son of Mary would descend and lead you?"  

مسلم:١٥٥eوَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ مَوْلَى أَبِي قَتَادَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ

The Mahdī will lead the ummah as one

muslim:155fZuhayr b. Ḥarb > al-Walīd b. Muslim > Ibn Abū Dhiʾb > Ibn Shihāb > Nāfiʿ a freed slave of Abū Qatādah > Abū Hurayrah

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What would you do when ˹Jesus˺ the son of Mary would descend amongst you and would lead you as one amongst you?" Ibn Abū Dhiʾb on the authority of Abū Hurayrah narrated: "Your Imām (leader) amongst you."

Ibn Abū Dhiʾb said: Do you know what the words: "He would lead as one amongst you" mean? I said: Explain these to me. He said: He would lead you according to the Book of your Lord ﷻ and the Sunnah of your Prophet ﷺ.  

مسلم:١٥٥fوَحَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنِي الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ: قَالَ «كَيْفَ أَنْتُمْ إِذَا نَزَلَ فِيكُمُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ فَأَمَّكُمْ مِنْكُمْ۔» فَقُلْتُ لاِبْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ إِنَّ الأَوْزَاعِيَّ حَدَّثَنَا عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: «وَإِمَامُكُمْ مِنْكُمْ۔»

قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ تَدْرِي «مَا أَمَّكُمْ مِنْكُم؟»، قُلْتُ: تُخْبِرُنِي۔ قَالَ: فَأَمَّكُمْ بِكِتَابِ رَبِّكُمْ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَسُنَّةِ نَبِيِّكُمْ ﷺ۔  

Prophet ʿĪsá (Jesus) would let the Commander of the believers lead him in prayer

muslim:156al-Walīd b. Shujāʿ And Hārūn b. ʿAbdullāh Waḥajjāj b. al-Shāʿir > Ḥajjāj Wahū Ibn Muḥammad > Ibn Jurayj > Abū al-Zubayr > Jābir b. ʿAbdullāh

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "A party of my people will continue to fight for the Truth and will prevail until the Day of Resurrection."

He said: "Then Jesus, the son of Mary, would descend and their Commander (the Mahdī) would invite him to come and lead them in prayer, but he would say: 'No, some amongst you are commanders over some. This is the honor from Allah for this Ummah.'"  

مسلم:١٥٦حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ شُجَاعٍ وَهَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَحَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «لاَ تَزَالُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ ظَاهِرِينَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ۔»

قَالَ: «فَيَنْزِلُ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ ﷺ فَيَقُولُ أَمِيرُهُمْ: تَعَالَ صَلِّ لَنَا، فَيَقُولُ: لاَ إِنَّ بَعْضَكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ أُمَرَاءُ تَكْرِمَةَ اللَّهِ هَذِهِ الأُمَّةَ۔»
