حَدَّثَنَا الشَّيْخُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْفَقِيهُ أَنْبَأَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زِيَادٍ ثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَخِي عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بِلَالٍ عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ
لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَنْزِلَ الرُّومُ بِالْأَعْمَاقِ فَيَخْرُجُ إِلَيْهِمْ جَلَبٌ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ مِنْ خِيَارِ 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 وَيُقْتَلُ ثُلُثٌ هُمْ أَفْضَلُ الشُّهَدَاءِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ ﷻ وَيُصْبِحُ ثُلُثٌ لَا يُفْتَنُونَ أَبَدًا فَيَبْلُغُونَ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةَ فَيَفْتَحُونَ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَقْسِمُونَ غَنَائِمَهُمْ وَقَدْ عَلَّقُوا سِلَاحَهُمْ بِالزَّيْتُونِ إِذْ صَاحَ الشَّيْطَانُ إِنَّ الْمَسِيحَ قَدْ خَلَّفَكُمْ فِي أَهْلِيكُمْ وَذَلِكَ بَاطِلٌ فَإِذَا جَاءُوا الشَّامَ خَرَجَ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَعْدُونَ لِلْقِتَالِ وَيُسَوُّونَ الصُّفُوفَ إِذْ أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ صَلَاةُ الصُّبْحِ فَيَنْزِلُ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فَأَمَّهُمْ فَإِذَا رَآهُ عَدُوُّ اللَّهِ ذَابَ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فَلَوْ تَرَكَهُ لَانْذَابَ حَتَّى يَهْلِكَ وَلَكِنْ يَقْتُلُهُ اللَّهُ بِيَدِهِ فَيُرِيهِمْ دَمَهُ فِي حَرْبَتِهِ

✧ The Hour will not come until the Romans land at al-A'maq. A group from Madinah, from the best people on earth at that time, will go out to them. When they line up, the Romans will say: 'Let us get to those who were captured from among us, and we will fight them.' The Muslims will say: 'No, by Allah, we will not let you get to our brothers.' They will fight them, and one third will flee, and Allah will never accept their repentance; one third will be killed, and they are the best martyrs in the sight of Allah ﷻ; and one third will remain, never being put to trial. They will reach Constantinople and conquer it. While they are dividing their spoils, having hung their weapons on olive trees, Satan will cry out: 'The Messiah has come to your families behind you.' That is false. When they reach Syria, he will come out. While they are preparing for battle and aligning the rows, the prayer—the dawn prayer—will be called. Then Isa b. Maryam (blessings of Allah be upon him) will descend and lead them. When the enemy of Allah sees him, he will dissolve like salt dissolves. If he were left alone, he would dissolve until he perishes, but Allah will kill him by his hand and show them his blood on his spear.
