"عَنْ أَسَيرِ بْنِ جابِر قَالَ: هاجَتْ رِيحٌ حَمْرَاءُ بِالْكُوفَةِ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ جَاءَتِ السَّاعَةُ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ: إِنَّ السَّاعَةَ لَا تَقُومُ حَتَّى لَا يُقْسَمَ مِيرَاثٌ وَلَا يُفْرَحَ بغَنيمَةٍ، وَقَالَ عَدُوٌ يَجْمَعُونَ لأَهْلِ الإِسْلَام وَيَجْمَعُ لَهُمْ أَهْلُ الإسْلَامِ وَنَحَا بيَده نَحْوَ الشَّامِ، قُلْتُ: الرُّومَ تَعْنى؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ فَيَكُونُ عِنْدَ ذلِكُمْ قِتَالُ ردةٍ شَديدَةٍ، فَيَتَشَرَّط الْمُسْلِمُونَ شُرْطَةً للِمَوْت، لَا تَرْجِعُ إِلَّا غَالِبة فَيَقْتَتِلُونَ حَتَّى يَحْجُزَ بَيْنَهُمْ اللَّيْلُ، فَيَبْقَى هَؤُلاءِ وَهؤلَاءِ كُلٌّ غَيْرُ غَالبٍ وتفنى الشُّرْطَةُ ثُمَّ يَشْرطُ الْمُسْلِمُونَ شُرْطَةً لِلْمَوْت لَا تَرْجِعُ إِلَّا غَالِبَةً فَيَقْتَتِلُونَ حَتَّى يَمْسُونَ فَيَبْقَى هؤُلَاءِ وَهؤُلَاءِ كُلُّ غَيْرُ غَالبٍ وتفنى الشُّرْطَةُ فَإِذَا كَانَ الْيَوْمُ الرَّابِعُ نَهدَ إِلَيْهِمْ جُنْدُ أَهْل الإِسْلَامِ فَجَعَلَ الله الدَبْرَةَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَقْتَتِلُونَ مَقْتَلَةً عَظِيمَةً لَا يُرَى مِثْلُهَا حَتَّى إنَّ الطَيْرَ لَتَمُرُّ بِجَنَبَاتِهِمْ مَا يَخْلُفُهُمْ حَتَّى يَخِرَّ مَيِّتًا فَيَتَعادّ بَنُو الأَب كَانُوا مِائَةً فَلَا يَجدُونَهُ بَقىَ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا الرَّجُل الوَاحِد فَبِأَىِّ غَنِيمَةٍ يفْرَحُ أَوْ بأَىِّ ميرَاثٍ يُقَاسِمُ، فبينما هُمْ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ سَمعُوا ببأسٍ هُوَ أَكْبَرُ مِنْ ذلِكَ إِذْ جَاءَهُمْ الصَّرِيخُ أَنَّ الدَّجَالَ قَدْ خَلَف فِى ذَراريهِمْ فَرَفَضُوا مَا فِى أَيْدِيهِمْ وَيقْبلُون فَيَبْعثُونَ عَشرَةَ فَوَارِسَ طَليعة فَقَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ إِنِّى لأَعْرفُ أَسْمَاءَهُمْ وَأَسْمَاءَ آبَائِهمْ وَألْوَانَ خُيولِهِمْ، هُمْ خَيْرُ فَوَارسَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الأَرْض يَوْمَئِذٍ".

"From Asir ibn Jabir who said: A red wind blew in Kufa, and a man said: The Hour has come. Ibn Mas'ud said: Indeed the Hour will not come until inheritance is no longer divided and no one rejoices over booty. And an enemy will gather against the people of Islam, and the people of Islam will gather against them, and he gestured with his hand toward Syria. I said: You mean the Romans? He said: Yes. At that time there will be a fierce battle of apostasy, and the Muslims will pledge a vanguard for death, which will not return except victorious. They will fight until night separates them, and these and those will remain, each not victorious, and the vanguard will be destroyed. Then the Muslims will pledge another vanguard for death, which will not return except victorious, and they will fight until evening, and these and those will remain, each not victorious, and the vanguard will be destroyed. When the fourth day comes, the army of the people of Islam will advance against them, and Allah will grant them the upper hand over them. They will fight a slaughter so great that the like of it has not been seen, so that birds will pass by their sides and not outpace them before falling dead. The sons of one father, who were a hundred, will count themselves and find none remaining except one man. Then with what booty will he rejoice, or what inheritance will he divide? While they are in that state, they hear of a calamity greater than that, when the screamer comes to them saying that the Dajjal has succeeded over their families. They abandon what is in their hands and turn back, and they send out ten horsemen as a vanguard. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Indeed I know their names, their fathers' names, and the colors of their horses. They are the best horsemen on the face of the earth on that day."
