[Machine] I was with the Prophet ﷺ one night, and he said, "Look, do you see any star in the sky?" I said, "Yes." He said, "What do you see?" I said, "I see the Pleiades." He said, "Verily, it is following this Ummah (nation) with its number from your lineage, and two of them will be in a fitnah (trial or turmoil)."  

أحمد:١٧٨٦حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ أَبِي قُرَّةَ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي قَبِيلٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَيْسَرَةَ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ قَالَ

كُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَقَالَ انْظُرْ هَلْ تَرَى فِي السَّمَاءِ مِنْ نَجْمٍ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ مَا تَرَى؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ أَرَى الثُّرَيَّا قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ يَلِي هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةَ بِعَدَدِهَا مِنْ صُلْبِكَ اثْنَيْنِ فِي فِتْنَةٍ
