"لا تَزَالُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى الحَقِّ، ظَاهِرِينَ إِلَى يَوْم القِيَامَةِ فَيَنْزِلُ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ، فَيَقُولُ أميرُهُمْ: تَعَال صَلِّ لَنَا، فَيَقُولُ: لا. إِنَّ بَعْضَكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ أمِيرٌ، تكْرِمَةُ اللهِ ﷻ لِهَذِهِ الأُمَّةِ".

Collected by Muslim, Abū Dāwūd, Aḥmad, Ḥākim, Ibn Ḥibbān, Ṭabarānī, Bayhaqī, SuyūṭīProphet ʿĪsá (Jesus) would let the Commander of the believers lead him in prayer
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.'"
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۔»
The Prophet ﷺ said: A section of my community will continue to fight for the right and overcome their opponents till the last of them fights with the Antichrist.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ تَزَالُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ ظَاهِرِينَ عَلَى مَنْ نَاوَأَهُمْ حَتَّى يُقَاتِلَ آخِرُهُمُ الْمَسِيحَ الدَّجَّالَ
