"عنْ عَلِي قَالَ: إِنَّ يَأجُوجَ وَمَأجُوجَ خَلْفَ السَّدِّ، لاَ يَمُوتُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ حَتىَّ يُولَدَ لَهُ أَلفٌ لِصُلبِهِ وَهُمْ يَغْدُونَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ عَلَى السَّدِّ - فَيَلحَسُونهُ - وَقَدْ جَعَلُوهُ مثْلَ قِشْرِ البَيْضِ، فَيَقُولُونَ: نَرْجعُ غَدًا فَنَفْتَحُهُ، فَيُصْبِحونَ وَقَدْ عَادَ إِلى مَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُلحَسَ، فَلاَ يَزالُونَ كَذلِكَ حَتَّى يُولَدَ فِيهمْ مَوْلُودٌ مُسْلِمٌ، فَإِذاَ غَدَوْا يَلحَسُونهُ. قَالَ لَهم: قُولُوا: بالله ()، فأرَادُوا أَنْ يَرْجعُوا حِينَ يُمْسُونَ، فَيَقُولُونَ: نَرْجِعُ غَدًا فَنَفْتَحُهُ، فَيَقُولُ، قُولُوا: إِنْ شَاءَ الله، فيقولون: إن شاء الله، فيصبحون وهو مثل قشر البيض فَيَنْقُبُونَهُ، فَيَخْرُجوُنَ مِنْهُ عَلَى النَّاسِ، فَيَخْرُجُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يَخْرُجُ مِنْهُمْ سَبْعُونَ أَلفًا عَلَيهِمُ "التِّيجَانُ"، ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُونَ بَعدَ ذَلِكَ أَفْواجًا، فَيَأتُونَ عَلىَ النَّهْرِ مِثْل نَهْرِكُمْ هَذاَ - يعَنْى الفُرَاتَ - فَيَشْرَبُونَهُ حَتَّى لاَ يَبْقَى مِنْهُ شَئٌ، ثُمَّ يَجِئُ الفَرَحُ مِنْهُمْ حَتَّى ينْتَهُوا إِلَيْهِ فَيَقُول: لَقَدْ كَانَ هَاهُنا مَاءٌ مرَّةً وَذَلِكَ قَوْلُ الله: {فَإِذَا جَاءَ وَعْدُ رَبِّي جَعَلَهُ دَكَّاءَ} وَالذَكَّاءُ التُّرَابُ. {وَكَانَ وَعْدُ رَبِّي حَقًّا} "

"From 'Ali who said: Indeed Ya'juj and Ma'juj are behind the barrier. No man among them dies until he has fathered a thousand from his own loins. Every day they go out to the barrier and lick it, and it has become like the shell of an egg. They say: We will return tomorrow and break through it. In the morning it has returned to what it was before they licked it. They continue like this until a Muslim child is born among them. When they go out in the morning, they lick it. He tells them: Say: With Allah ().' They wanted to return when evening came, and they say: We will return tomorrow and break through it. He says: Say: If Allah wills.' They say: If Allah wills. In the morning it is like the shell of an egg, and they break through it and come out to the people. The first of them to come out are seventy thousand wearing crowns. Then they come out after that in groups, and they reach the river like this river of yours, meaning the Euphrates, and they drink it until nothing is left of it. Then the last of them arrive and say: There was water here once! That is the saying of Allah: {When the promise of my Lord comes, He will make it level to dust, and the promise of my Lord is ever true} (Quran 18:98). Al-Dakka' means dust. {And the promise of my Lord is ever true}."
