the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "How will you be when ˹Jesus˺ the son of Mary descends amongst you and your Imām (leader) is among you?"  

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

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?"  

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?"  

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

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.  

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۔  

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What state will you be in when ˹Jesus˺ the son of Mary descends amongst you and leads you." or said, "and your Imām (leader) is among you?"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «كَيْفَ بِكُمْ إِذَا نَزَلَ بِكُمُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ فَأَمَّكُمْ؟» أَوْ قَالَ «إِمَامُكُمْ مِنْكُمْ؟»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "How will it be for you when Jesus, the son of Mary, descends among you and your leader is from amongst you?"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ: «كَيْفَ بِكُمْ إِذَا نَزَلَ فِيكُمْ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ وَإِمَامُكُمْ مِنْكُمْ؟»  

What will be your state when the son of Mary descends amongst you and there will be an Imam amongst you? (Using translation from Muslim 155d)  

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

«وَكَيف أنتمْ إِذا نزَلَ ابْن مريَمَ فيكْمْ وَإمَامُكم مِنكمْ؟»  

«كَيفَ أنْتُم إِذا نَزلَ ابنُ مرْيَمَ فِيكُم فَأمَّكُم؟»  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "An army will invade the Kaʿba and when the invaders reach al-Baidāʾ, all the ground will sink and swallow the whole army." I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! How will they sink into the ground while amongst them will be their markets (the people who worked in business and not invaders) and the people not belonging to them?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "all of those people will sink but they will be resurrected and judged according to their intentions."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «يَغْزُو جَيْشٌ الْكَعْبَةَ فَإِذَا كَانُوا بِبَيْدَاءَ مِنَ الأَرْضِ، يُخْسَفُ بِأَوَّلِهِمْ وَآخِرِهِمْ۔» قَالَتْ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ يُخْسَفُ بِأَوَّلِهِمْ وَآخِرِهِمْ وَفِيهِمْ أَسْوَاقُهُمْ؟ وَمَنْ لَيْسَ مِنْهُمْ؟ قَالَ: «يُخْسَفُ بِأَوَّلِهِمْ وَآخِرِهِمْ ثُمَّ يُبْعَثُونَ عَلَى نِيَّاتِهِمْ۔»  

The Last Hour would not come until the Romans would land at al-A'maq or in Dabiq. An army consisting of the best (soldiers) of the people of the earth at that time will come from Medina (to counteract them). When they will arrange themselves in ranks, the Romans would say: Do not stand between us and those (Muslims) who took prisoners from amongst us. Let us fight with them; and the Muslims would say: Nay, by Allah, we would never get aside from you and from our brethren that you may fight them. They will then fight and a third (part) of the army would run away, whom Allah will never forgive. A third (part of the army) which would be constituted of excellent martyrs in Allah's eye, would be killed and the third who would never be put to trial would win and they would be conquerors of Constantinople. And as they would be busy in distributing the spoils of war (amongst themselves) after hanging their swords by the olive trees, the Satan would cry: The Dajjal has taken your place among your family. They would then come out, but it would be of no avail. And when they would come to Syria, he would come out while they would be still preparing themselves for battle drawing up the ranks. Certainly, the time of prayer shall come and then Jesus (peace be upon him) son of Mary would descend and would lead them. When the enemy of Allah would see him, it would (disappear) just as the salt dissolves itself in water and if he (Jesus) were not to confront them at all, even then it would dissolve completely, but Allah would kill them by his hand and he would show them their blood on his lance (the lance of Jesus Christ).  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَنْزِلَ الرُّومُ بِالأَعْمَاقِ أَوْ بِدَابِقَ فَيَخْرُجُ إِلَيْهِمْ جَيْشٌ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ مِنْ خِيَارِ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَإِذَا تَصَافُّوا قَالَتِ الرُّومُ خَلُّوا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الَّذِينَ سَبَوْا مِنَّا نُقَاتِلْهُمْ فَيَقُولُ الْمُسْلِمُونَ لاَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ نُخَلِّي بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ إِخْوَانِنَا فَيُقَاتِلُونَهُمْ فَيَنْهَزِمُ ثُلُثٌ لاَ يَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَبَدًا وَيُقْتَلُ ثُلُثُهُمْ أَفْضَلُ الشُّهَدَاءِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَيَفْتَتِحُ الثُّلُثُ لاَ يُفْتَنُونَ أَبَدًا فَيَفْتَتِحُونَ قُسْطُنْطِينِيَّةَ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَقْتَسِمُونَ الْغَنَائِمَ قَدْ عَلَّقُوا سُيُوفَهُمْ بِالزَّيْتُونِ إِذْ صَاحَ فِيهِمُ الشَّيْطَانُ إِنَّ الْمَسِيحَ قَدْ خَلَفَكُمْ فِي أَهْلِيكُمْ فَيَخْرُجُونَ وَذَلِكَ بَاطِلٌ فَإِذَا جَاءُوا الشَّأْمَ خَرَجَ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يُعِدُّونَ لِلْقِتَالِ يُسَوُّونَ الصُّفُوفَ إِذْ أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ فَيَنْزِلُ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ فَأَمَّهُمْ فَإِذَا رَآهُ عَدُوُّ اللَّهِ ذَابَ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ فَلَوْ تَرَكَهُ لاَنْذَابَ حَتَّى يَهْلِكَ وَلَكِنْ يَقْتُلُهُ اللَّهُ بِيَدِهِ فَيُرِيهِمْ دَمَهُ فِي حَرْبَتِهِ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تَنْزِلَ الرُّومُ بِالْأَعْمَاقِ أَوْ بِدَابِقَ فَيَخْرُجُ إِلَيْهِمْ جَيْشٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ هُمْ خِيَارُ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَإِذَا تَصَافُّوا قَالَتِ الرُّومُ خَلُّوا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الَّذِينَ سَبَوْا مِنَّا نُقَاتِلْهُمْ فَيَقُولُ الْمُسْلِمُونَ لَا وَاللَّهِ لَا نُخَلِّي بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ إِخْوَانِنَا فَيُقَاتِلُونَهُمْ فَيَنْهَزِمُ ثُلُثٌ لَا يَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَبَدًا ثُمَّ يُقْتَلُ ثُلُثُهُمْ وَهُمْ أَفْضَلُ الشُّهَدَاءِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَيَفْتَتِحُ ثُلُثٌ فَيَفْتَتِحُونَ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةَ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَقْسِمُونَ الْغَنَائِمَ قَدْ عَلَّقُوا سُيُوفَهُمْ بِالزَّيْتُونِ إِذْ صَاحَ فِيهِمُ الشَّيْطَانُ إِنَّ الْمَسِيحَ قَدْ خَلَفَكُمْ فِي أَهْالِيكُمْ فَيَخْرُجُونَ وَذَلِكَ بَاطِلٌ فَإِذَا جَاؤُوا الشَّامَ خَرَجَ يَعْنِي الدَّجَّالَ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يُعِدُّونَ لِلْقِتَالِ وَيُسَوُّونَ الصُّفُوفَ إِذْ أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَيَنْزِلُ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ فَإِذَا رَآهُ عَدُوُّ اللَّهِ يَذُوبُ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ وَلَوْ تَرَكُوهُ لَذَابَ حَتَّى يَهْلِكَ وَلَكِنَّهُ يَقْتُلُهُ اللَّهُ بِيَدِهِ فَيُرِيهِمْ دَمَهُ بِحَرْبَتِهِ»  

"لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تَنْزِلَ الرُّومُ بِالأعمَاقِ أوْ بِدَابِقَ، فَيَخْرُجُ إِلَيْهِم جَيْشٌ مِنَ الْمَدينَةِ، مِنْ خيَارِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ يَوْمَئِذٍ، فإِذَا تَصَافُّوا قَالَت الرُّومُ: خَلُّوا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الذِينَ سُبُوا مِنَّا نُقَاتِلهُمَ، فَيَقُولُ المُسْلِمُونَ: لاَ وَالله، لاَ نُخَلِّ بَيْنكُم وبَيْنَ إِخْوانِنَا فَتُقَاتِلُونَهُم، فَينْهَزِمُ ثُلُثٌ لاَ يَتُوُبُ الله عَلَيْهِم أَبَدًا، ويُقْتَلُ ثُلُثٌ هُمْ أفْضَلُ الشُّهَدَاءِ عِنْدَ الله، ويَفْتَتِحُ الثُّلُثُ، لا يُفْتَنُونَ أَبَدًا، فَيفْتَتحُونَ قُسْطَنْطِينيَّةَ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَقْتَسمُونَ الغَنَائِمَ قَدْ عَلَّقُوا سُيُوفَهُمْ بالزَّيْتُون إِذ صَاحَ فِيهِم الشَّيْطَانُ: إِنَّ المَسِيحَ قَدْ خَلَفَكُم في أَهْلِيكُم، فَيَخْرُجُونَ، وَذَلِكَ بَاطِلٌ، فإِذَا جَاءُوا الشَّامَ خَرجَ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُم يُعدُّونَ لِلقِتَالِ يُسَوَّونَ الصُّفُوفَ إِذ أُقيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ، فَنَزَلَ عِيسَى بْنُ مَرْيَمَ فَأَمَّهُم، فَإِذَا رآهُ عَدُوُّ الله ذَابَ كَمَا يَذُوبُ المِلح في الْمَاءِ، فَلَوْ تَرَكَهُ لاَ نْذَابَ حتَّى يَهْلِكَ، ولَكِنْ يَقْتُلُهُ الله بِيَدِهِ، فَيُرِيهِمْ دَمَهُ في حَرْبَتِه".  

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۔»  

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: A section of my people will not cease fighting for the Truth and will prevail till the Day of Resurrection.

The Prophet ﷺ said: The religion will continue to be established till there are twelve caliphs over you, and the whole community will agree on each of them. I then heard from the Prophet ﷺ some remarks which I could not understand. I asked my father: What is he saying: He said: all of them will belong to Quraysh.  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لاَ يَزَالُ هَذَا الدِّينُ قَائِمًا حَتَّى يَكُونَ عَلَيْكُمُ اثْنَا عَشَرَ خَلِيفَةً كُلُّهُمْ تَجْتَمِعُ عَلَيْهِ الأُمَّةُ فَسَمِعْتُ كَلاَمًا مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لَمْ أَفْهَمْهُ قُلْتُ لأَبِي مَا يَقُولُ قَالَ كُلُّهُمْ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ  

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: This religion will continue to be strong till the time of twelve caliphs. The people then uttered: Allah is more great and uproared. He then silently a word which I could not understand. So I said to my father: What did he say, father ? He said: All of them will belong to Quraish.  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لاَ يَزَالُ هَذَا الدِّينُ عَزِيزًا إِلَى اثْنَىْ عَشَرَ خَلِيفَةً قَالَ فَكَبَّرَ النَّاسُ وَضَجُّوا ثُمَّ قَالَ كَلِمَةً خَفِيَّةً قُلْتُ لأَبِي يَا أَبَةِ مَا قَالَ قَالَ كُلُّهُمْ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ  

When he came back to his home. the Quraish came to him and said: Then what will happen ? He said: Then turmoil will prevail.  

بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ زَادَ فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ أَتَتْهُ قُرَيْشٌ فَقَالُوا ثُمَّ يَكُونُ مَاذَا قَالَ ثُمَّ يَكُونُ الْهَرْجُ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: "If only one day of this world remained," – in the narration of Zaʾidah he adds: "Allah will lengthen that day" and he agrees with the rest ˹of the narration˺ – "until He will raise up in it a man (the Mahdī) who is from me" or "from ˹the bloodline˺ of my family. His father's name is the same as my father." In the narration of Fiṭr he adds: "He will fill the earth with equity and justice as it has been filled with oppression and tyranny."

In the narration of Sufyān he adds: "The world will not pass away or end before the Arabs are ruled by a man of my family whose name will be the same as mine."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «لَوْ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلاَّ يَوْمٌ» قَالَ زَائِدَةُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ: «لَطَوَّلَ اللَّهُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ» ثُمَّ اتَّفَقُوا: «حَتَّى يَبْعَثَ فِيهِ رَجُلاً مِنِّي» أَوْ «مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي وَاسْمُ أَبِيهِ اسْمَ أَبِي۔» زَادَ فِي حَدِيثِ فِطْرٍ: «يَمْلأُ الأَرْضَ قِسْطًا وَعَدْلاً كَمَا مُلِئَتْ ظُلْمًا وَجَوْرًا۔»

وَقَالَ فِي حَدِيثِ سُفْيَانَ: «لاَ تَذْهَبُ أَوْ لاَ تَنْقَضِي الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يَمْلِكَ الْعَرَبَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي۔»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: "If only one day of this ˹worldly˺ time remained, Allah would raise up a man (the Mahdī) from my family who would fill this earth with justice as it has been filled with oppression."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنَ الدَّهْرِ إِلاَّ يَوْمٌ لَبَعَثَ اللَّهُ رَجُلاً مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يَمْلأُهَا عَدْلاً كَمَا مُلِئَتْ جَوْرًا  

from the Prophet ﷺ who said: "A man is coming from the people of my family whose name agrees with my name."

ʿāsim said: Abū Ṣālih narrated to us from Abū Hurayrah who said: "If there did not remain in the world but one day, then Allah would extend that day until he comes."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «يَلِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي۔» قَالَ عَاصِمٌ وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: «لَوْ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلاَّ يَوْمٌ لَطَوَّلَ اللَّهُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ حَتَّى يَلِيَ۔»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If there remained only one day in the world, Allah would lengthen that day until He sends in it a man from among me or from my family, whose name will match my name and his father's name will match my father's name."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا يَوْمٌ لَطَوَّلَ اللهُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ حَتَّى يَبْعَثَ اللهُ فِيهِ رَجُلًا مِنِّي أَوْ مِنْ أَهْلِي أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي وَاسْمُ أَبِيهِ اسْمَ أَبِي»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "If there was only one night left in the world, Allah would prolong that night until a man from my family rises, whose name matches my name and his father's name matches my father's name. He will fill the earth with justice and fairness, as it has been filled with oppression and injustice."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا لَيْلَةٌ لَطَوَّلَ اللهُ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ حَتَّى يَمْلِكَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي وَاسْمُ أَبِيهِ اسْمَ أَبِي يَمْلَأُهَا قِسْطًا وَعَدْلًا كَمَا مُلِئَتْ ظُلْمًا وَجَوْرًا»  

"لَوْ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلا يَوْمٌ لَطَوَّلَ الله ذَلِك الْيَوْمَ حَتَّى يُبعثَ فِيهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أفضَلِ بَيتِى يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِى وَاسْمُ أَبِيهِ اسْمَ أبِي يَمْلأ الأَرْضَ قِسْطًا وَعَدْلًا كَمَا مُلِئَتْ ظُلمًا وَجَوْرًا".  

"عَنِ الْمَهْدِىِّ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، حَدَّثنِى أَبِى، عَنْ جَدِّه، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قالَ: وَاللهِ لَوْ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلا يَوْمٌ لأدَالَ الله مِنْ بَنِى أُمَيَّةَ لَيَكُونَنَّ مِنَّا السَّفَّاحُ، وَالْمَنْصُورُ، وَالْمَهْدِىُّ".  

The Prophet ﷺ said: The Mahdi will be of my family, of the descendants of Fatimah. Abdullah ibn Ja'far said: I heard AbulMalih praising Ali ibn Nufayl and describing his good qualities.  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الْمَهْدِيُّ مِنْ عِتْرَتِي مِنْ وَلَدِ فَاطِمَةَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَسَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْمَلِيحِ يُثْنِي عَلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ نُفَيْلٍ وَيَذْكُرُ مِنْهُ صَلاَحًا  

The Prophet ﷺ said: The Mahdi will be of my stock, and will have a broad forehead a prominent nose. He will fill the earth will equity and justice as it was filled with oppression and tyranny, and he will rule for seven years.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَهْدِيُّ مِنِّي أَجْلَى الْجَبْهَةِ أَقْنَى الأَنْفِ يَمْلأُ الأَرْضَ قِسْطًا وَعَدْلاً كَمَا مُلِئَتْ جَوْرًا وَظُلْمًا يَمْلِكُ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The earth will be filled with injustice and oppression, then a man from my family will emerge who will possess seven or nine, and he will fill the earth with justice and fairness."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ تُمْلَأُ الْأَرْضُ جَوْرًا وَظُلْمًا فَيَخْرُجُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ عِتْرَتِي يَمْلِكُ سَبْعًا أَوْ تِسْعًا فَيَمْلَأُ الْأَرْضَ قِسْطًا وَعَدْلًا  

[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, "The Hour will not come until a man from my household rules, filling the earth with justice as it was filled with injustice before him, for a period of seven years."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَمْلِكَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي أَجْلَى أَقْنَى يَمْلَأُ الْأَرْضَ عَدْلًا كَمَا مُلِئَتْ قَبْلَهُ ظُلْمًا يَكُونُ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The Mahdi is from us, the people of the household. He has a prominent nose and a broad forehead. He will fill the earth with justice and fairness just as it was filled with oppression and injustice. He will live like this." And he extended his left hand with two fingers from his right hand, the thumb and three fingers.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الْمَهْدِيُّ مِنَّا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ أَشَمُّ الْأَنْفِ أَقْنَى أَجْلَى يَمْلَأُ الْأَرْضَ قِسْطًا وَعَدْلًا كَمَا مُلِئَتْ جَوْرًا وَظُلْمًا يَعِيشُ هَكَذَا» وَبَسَطَ يَسَارَهُ وَإِصْبَعَيْنِ مِنْ يَمِينِهِ الْمُسَبِّحَةَ وَالْإِبْهَامَ وَعَقَدَ ثَلَاثَةً  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The Hour will not be established until a man from my household rules over the people, filling the earth with justice as it was filled with oppression before him, ruling for seven years."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَمْلِكَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي أَقْنَى يَمْلَأُ الْأَرْضَ عَدْلًا كَمَا مُلِئَتْ قَبْلَهُ ظُلْمًا يَمْلِكُ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The world will not come to an end until a man from my household, whose name matches mine, fills the earth with justice and fairness, just as it was filled with oppression and injustice."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَذْهَبُ الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يَمْلِكَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُوَافِقُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي يَمْلَأُ الْأَرْضَ قِسْطًا وَعَدْلًا كَمَا مُلِئَتْ جَوْرًا وَظُلْمًا»  

"المَهْدِيُّ مِنِّي، أجْلَي الجَبْهة، أَقْنا الأَنف، يملأُ الأَرْضَ قِسْطًا وَعَدْلًا كَما مُلِئَت جَوْرًا وَظُلمًا يملِكُ سَبعَ سنين".  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Disagreement will occur at the death of a caliph and a man of the people of Medina will come flying forth to Mecca. Some of the people of Mecca will come to him, bring him out against his will and swear allegiance to him between the Corner and the Maqam. An expeditionary force will then be sent against him from Syria but will be swallowed up in the desert between Mecca and Medina. When the people see that, the eminent saints of Syria and the best people of Iraq will come to him and swear allegiance to him between the Corner and the Maqam. Then there will arise a man of Quraysh whose maternal uncles belong to Kalb and send against them an expeditionary force which will be overcome by them, and that is the expedition of Kalb. Disappointed will be the one who does not receive the booty of Kalb. He will divide the property, and will govern the people by the Sunnah of their Prophet ﷺ and establish Islam on Earth. He will remain seven years, then die, and the Muslims will pray over him. Abu Dawud said: Some transmitted from Hisham "nine years" and some "seven years".  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ يَكُونُ اخْتِلاَفٌ عِنْدَ مَوْتِ خَلِيفَةٍ فَيَخْرُجُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ هَارِبًا إِلَى مَكَّةَ فَيَأْتِيهِ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ فَيُخْرِجُونَهُ وَهُوَ كَارِهٌ فَيُبَايِعُونَهُ بَيْنَ الرُّكْنِ وَالْمَقَامِ وَيُبْعَثُ إِلَيْهِ بَعْثٌ مِنَ الشَّامِ فَيُخْسَفُ بِهِمْ بِالْبَيْدَاءِ بَيْنَ مَكَّةَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ فَإِذَا رَأَى النَّاسُ ذَلِكَ أَتَاهُ أَبْدَالُ الشَّامِ وَعَصَائِبُ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ فَيُبَايِعُونَهُ بَيْنَ الرُّكْنِ وَالْمَقَامِ ثُمَّ يَنْشَأُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ أَخْوَالُهُ كَلْبٌ فَيَبْعَثُ إِلَيْهِمْ بَعْثًا فَيَظْهَرُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَذَلِكَ بَعْثُ كَلْبٍ وَالْخَيْبَةُ لِمَنْ لَمْ يَشْهَدْ غَنِيمَةَ كَلْبٍ فَيَقْسِمُ الْمَالَ وَيَعْمَلُ فِي النَّاسِ بِسُنَّةِ نَبِيِّهِمْ ﷺ وَيُلْقِي الإِسْلاَمُ بِجِرَانِهِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ فَيَلْبَثُ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ ثُمَّ يُتَوَفَّى وَيُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ الْمُسْلِمُونَ  

How will a man who comes against his will (be swallowed up by the earth), Messenger of Allah ? He replied: All will be swallowed up, but each will be raised according to his intention on the Day of Resurrection.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِقِصَّةِ جَيْشِ الْخَسْفِ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَكَيْفَ بِمَنْ كَانَ كَارِهًا قَالَ يُخْسَفُ بِهِمْ وَلَكِنْ يُبْعَثُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَى نِيَّتِهِ  

Ali looked at his son al-Hasan and said: This son of mine is a sayyid (chief) as named by the Prophet ﷺ, and from his loins will come forth a man who will be called by the name of your Prophet ﷺ and resemble him in conduct but not in appearance. He then mentioned the story about his filling the earth with justice.  

قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ؓ وَنَظَرَ إِلَى ابْنِهِ الْحَسَنِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا سَيِّدٌ كَمَا سَمَّاهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَسَيَخْرُجُ مِنْ صُلْبِهِ رَجُلٌ يُسَمَّى بِاسْمِ نَبِيِّكُمْ يُشْبِهُهُ فِي الْخُلُقِ وَلاَ يُشْبِهُهُ فِي الْخَلْقِ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ قِصَّةَ يَمْلأُ الأَرْضَ عَدْلاً  

قَالَ وَنظَرَ إِلَى ابْنِه الحَسَن فَقَالَ: إنَّ ابْنِى هَذَا سيدٌ كَمَا سَماه النَّبى ﷺ سَيَخْرُجُ منْ صُلبِهِ رَجُل يُسَمى اسمَ نَبِيكُّمْ يُشْبِهُهُ في الخُلُقِ، وَلاَ يُشْبِهُهُ في الخَلقِ، يَمْلأُ الأرْضَ عَدْلا  

The Prophet ﷺ said: A man called al-Harith ibn Harrath will come forth from Ma Wara an-Nahr. His army will be led by a man called Mansur who will establish or consolidate things for Muhammad's family as Quraysh consolidated them for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Every believer must help him, or he said: respond to his sermons.  

النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَخْرُجُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ وَرَاءِ النَّهْرِ يُقَالُ لَهُ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ حَرَّاثٍ عَلَى مُقَدِّمَتِهِ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ مَنْصُورٌ يُوَطِّئُ أَوْ يُمَكِّنُ لآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا مَكَّنَتْ قُرَيْشٌ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَجَبَ عَلَى كُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ نَصْرُهُ أَوْ قَالَ إِجَابَتُهُ  

from Abu Ad-Darda who said: "We were with the Prophet ﷺ when he raised his sight to the sky, then he said: 'This is the time when knowledge is to be taken from the people, until what remains of it shall not amount to anything." So Ziyad bin Labid Al-Ansari said: 'How will it be taken from us while we recite the Qur'an. By Allah we recite it, and our women and children recite it?' He ﷺ said: 'May you be bereaved of your mother O Ziyad! I used to consider you among the Fuqaha of the people of Al-Madinah. The Tawrah and Injil are with the Jews and Christians, but what do they avail of them?'" Jubair said: "So I met 'Ubadah bin As-Samit and said to him: 'Have you not heard what your brother Abu Ad-Darda said?' Then I informed him of what Abu Ad-Darda said. He said: 'Abu Ad-Darda spoke the truth. If you wish, we shall narrated to you about the first knowledge to be removed from the people: It is Khushu', soon you will enter the congregational Masjid, but not see any man in it with Khushu'.'"  

كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَشَخَصَ بِبَصَرِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَذَا أَوَانٌ يُخْتَلَسُ الْعِلْمُ مِنَ النَّاسِ حَتَّى لاَ يَقْدِرُوا مِنْهُ عَلَى شَيْءٍ فَقَالَ زِيَادُ بْنُ لَبِيدٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ كَيْفَ يُخْتَلَسُ مِنَّا وَقَدْ قَرَأْنَا الْقُرْآنَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَنَقْرَأَنَّهُ وَلَنُقْرِئَنَّهُ نِسَاءَنَا وَأَبْنَاءَنَا فَقَالَ ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ يَا زِيَادُ إِنْ كُنْتُ لأَعُدُّكَ مِنْ فُقَهَاءِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ هَذِهِ التَّوْرَاةُ وَالإِنْجِيلُ عِنْدَ الْيَهُودِ وَالنَّصَارَى فَمَاذَا تُغْنِي عَنْهُمْ قَالَ جُبَيْرٌ فَلَقِيتُ عُبَادَةَ بْنَ الصَّامِتِ قُلْتُ أَلاَ تَسْمَعُ إِلَى مَا يَقُولُ أَخُوكَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِالَّذِي قَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ صَدَقَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ إِنْ شِئْتَ لأُحَدِّثَنَّكَ بِأَوَّلِ عِلْمٍ يُرْفَعُ مِنَ النَّاسِ الْخُشُوعُ يُوشِكُ أَنْ تَدْخُلَ مَسْجِدَ جَمَاعَةٍ فَلاَ تَرَى فِيهِ رَجُلاً خَاشِعًا  

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The world shall not pass away until a man from the people of my family rules the Arabs whose name agrees with my name."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «لاَ تَذْهَبُ الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يَمْلِكَ الْعَرَبَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي۔»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The Hour will not come until a man from my Ahlul-Bayt (family) rules, and his name matches my name and his father's name matches my father's name, and he fills the earth with justice and fairness."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَمْلِكَ النَّاسَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي وَاسْمُ أَبِيهِ اسْمَ أَبِي فَيَمْلَؤُهَا قِسْطًا وَعَدْلًا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The days and nights will not pass until a man from my household will rule, and his name will be the same as mine. He will fill the earth with justice as it was filled with oppression and injustice."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَذْهَبُ الْأَيَّامُ وَاللَّيَالِي حَتَّى يَمْلِكَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي يَمْلَأُ الْأَرْضَ عَدْلًا كَمَا مُلِئَتْ جَوْرًا وَظُلْمًا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The world will not come to an end until a man from my family fills the earth with justice and fairness, just as it was filled with oppression and tyranny. His name will match mine."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَذْهَبُ الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يَلِيَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يَمْلَأُ الْأَرْضَ قِسْطًا وَعَدْلًا كَمَا مُلِئَتْ ظُلْمًا وَجَوْرًا يُوَاطِئُ اسْمُهُ اسْمِي»  

"I heard Abu As-Siddiq An-Naji narrate a Hadith from Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri who said: 'We feared events to occur after our Prophet, so we asked Allah's Prophet ﷺ, and he said: "Indeed there will be a Mahdi who comes in my Ummah (ruling) living for five, or seven, or nine."- Zaid was the one in doubt- He said: "We said: What is that?" He said: "Years." He said: "A man will come to him and say: O Mahdi! 'Give to me, give to me! So he will fill in his garment whatever he is able to carry.'"  

أَنْ يَكُونَ بَعْدَ نَبِيِّنَا حَدَثٌ فَسَأَلْنَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ فِي أُمَّتِي الْمَهْدِيَّ يَخْرُجُ يَعِيشُ خَمْسًا أَوْ سَبْعًا أَوْ تِسْعًا زَيْدٌ الشَّاكُّ قَالَ قُلْنَا وَمَا ذَاكَ قَالَ سِنِينَ قَالَ فَيَجِيءُ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَيَقُولُ يَا مَهْدِيُّ أَعْطِنِي أَعْطِنِي قَالَ فَيَحْثِي لَهُ فِي ثَوْبِهِ مَا اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَحْمِلَهُ  

[Machine] We feared that there might be an event after our Prophet, so we asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He said, "The Mahdi will come out in my ummah, either five or seven or nine." Zaid Al-Sha'ak said, "What will happen?" He said, "Years." Then he said, "The sky will send down abundant rain, and the earth will not withhold any of its plants. Wealth will be abundant." He said, "Then a man will come to him and say, 'O Mahdi, give me, give me.' He will fill his garment with what he can carry."  

خَشِينَا أَنْ يَكُونَ بَعْدَ نَبِيِّنَا حَدَثٌ فَسَأَلْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَخْرُجُ الْمَهْدِيُّ فِي أُمَّتِي خَمْسًا أَوْ سَبْعًا أَوْ تِسْعًا زَيْدٌ الشَّاكُّ قَالَ قُلْنَا أَيُّ شَيْءٍ؟ قَالَ سِنِينَ ثُمَّ قَالَ يُرْسِلُ السَّمَاءَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِدْرَارًا وَلَا تَدَّخِرُ الْأَرْضُ مِنْ نَبَاتِهَا شَيْئًا وَيَكُونُ الْمَالُ كُدُوسًا قَالَ يَجِيءُ الرَّجُلُإِلَيْهِ فَيَقُولُ يَا مَهْدِيُّ أَعْطِنِي أَعْطِنِي قَالَ فَيَحْثِي لَهُ فِي ثَوْبِهِ مَا اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَحْمِلَ  

"إِنَّ في أمتى المهدىَّ، يَخْرُجُ يَعِيشُ خمسًا، أو سبعًا، أَو تِسْعًا -شَكَّ زيد- فيجئُ إِليه الرجُلُ فيقولُ: يا مَهْدِى أعْطِنى أَعْطِنى، فَيَحْثِى له في ثَوْبهِ ما استطاع أَنْ يَحْمِلهُ".
