   اطَّلَعَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ نَتَذَاكَرُ السَّاعَةَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ السَّاعَةَ لَا تَقُومُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ عَشْرُ آيَاتٍ: الدُّخَانُ، وَالدَّجَّالُ، وَالدَّابَّةُ، وَطُلُوعُ الشَّمْسِ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا، وَثَلَاثَةُ خُسُوفٍ خَسْفٌ بِالْمَشْرِقِ وَخَسْفٌ بِالْمَغْرِبِ وَخَسْفٌ بِجَزِيرَةِ الْعَرَبِ، وَنُزُولُ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ، وَفَتْحُ يَأْجُوجَ وَمَأْجُوجَ، وَنَارٌ تَخْرُجُ مِنْ قَعْرِ عَدَنٍ تَسُوقُ النَّاسَ إِلَى الْمَحْشَرِ

   ✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ looked upon us while we were discussing the Hour. He said, "The Hour will not come until there are ten signs: the smoke, the Dajjal, the Beast, the rising of the sun from the west, three sinkings—a sinking in the east, a sinking in the west, and a sinking in the Arabian Peninsula—and the descent of Jesus son of Mary, the opening of Gog and Magog, and a fire that comes out from the depths of Aden that drives the people to the gathering place."

   أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَتَاهُ مَوْتُ النَّجَاشِيِّ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ أَخَاكُمْ مَاتَ بِغَيْرِ أَرْضِكُمْ، فَقُومُوا فَصَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ، فَصَفَّهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَلْفَهُ وَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ

   ✧ When the death of the Negus was reported to the Prophet ﷺ, he said: "Your brother has died in a land other than yours, so stand and pray over him." The Messenger of God ﷺ arranged them in rows behind him and prayed over him.

   ذَكَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الدَّابَّةَ فَقَالَ: لَهَا ثَلَاثُ خَرَجَاتٍ مِنَ الدَّهْرِ؛ فَتَخْرُجُ فِي أَقْصَى الْبَادِيَةِ وَلَا يَدْخُلُ ذِكْرُهَا الْقَرْيَةَ - يَعْنِي مَكَّةَ، ثُمَّ تَكْمُنُ زَمَانًا طَوِيلًا ثُمَّ تَخْرُجُ خَرْجَةً أُخْرَى دُونَ ذَلِكَ فَيَعْلُو ذِكْرُهَا فِي أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ وَيَدْخُلُ ذِكْرُهَا الْقَرْيَةَ "؛ يَعْنِي مَكَّةَ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " ثُمَّ بَيْنَمَا النَّاسُ فِي أَعْظَمِ الْمَسَاجِدِ عَلَى اللهِ حُرْمَةً خَيْرِهَا وَأَكْرَمِهَا الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ لَمْ يَرُعْهُمْ إِلَّا وَهِيَ تَرْغُو بَيْنَ الرُّكْنِ وَالْمَقَامِ تَنْفُضُ عَنْ رَأْسِهَا التُّرَابَ، فَارْفَضَّ النَّاسُ مَعَهَا شَتَّى وَمَعًا، وَثَبَتَ عِصَابَةٌ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَعَرَفُوا أَنَّهُمْ لَنْ يُعْجِزُوا اللهَ، فَبَدَأَتْ بِهِمْ فَجَلَّتْ وُجُوهَهُمْ حَتَّى تَجْعَلَهَا كَأَنَّهَا الْكَوْكَبُ الدُّرِّيُّ، وَوَلَّتْ فِي الْأَرْضِ لَا يُدْرِكُهَا طَالِبٌ وَلَا يَنْجُو مِنْهَا هَارِبٌ، حَتَّى إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَتَعَوَّذُ مِنْهَا بِالصَّلَاةِ فَتَأْتِيهِ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ فَتَقُولُ: يَا فُلَانُ، الْآنَ تُصَلِّي ! فَيُقْبِلُ عَلَيْهَا فَتَسِمُهُ فِي وَجْهِهِ ثُمَّ تَنْطَلِقُ، وَيَشْتَرِكُ النَّاسُ فِي الْأَمْوَالِ وَيَصْطَحِبُونَ فِي الْأَمْصَارِ يُعْرَفُ الْمُؤْمِنُ مِنَ الْكَافِرِ، حَتَّى إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ يَقُولُ: يَا كَافِرُ، اقْضِنِي حَقِّي ! وَحَتَّى إِنَّ الْكَافِرَ يَقُولُ: يَا مُؤْمِنُ، اقْضِنِي حَقِّي !

   ✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ mentioned the Beast and said: "It has three emergences in the course of time. It will emerge in the farthest part of the desert, and its mention will not enter the town—meaning Makkah. Then it will stay hidden for a long time, then it will emerge a second time, lesser than that, and its mention will rise among the desert dwellers and enter the town—meaning Makkah." The Messenger of God ﷺ then said: "Then while the people are in the greatest mosque, the most sacred, the best, and the most noble—the Sacred Mosque—nothing will startle them except that it is bellowing between the Corner and the Station, shaking dust from its head. The people will scatter from it in all directions and together, but a band of believers will remain firm, knowing they cannot thwart God. It will begin with them and polish their faces until they become like a brilliant star. Then it will turn away through the land; no seeker can catch it, and no fugitive can escape it. Even a man will seek refuge from it in prayer, and it will come to him from behind and say: 'O so-and-so, only now are you praying!' He will turn to face it, and it will brand his face, then go on. And people will share in wealth and accompany one another in the towns, the believer being known from the disbeliever, until the believer says: 'O disbeliever, pay me my due!' and until the disbeliever says: 'O believer, pay me my due!'"
