أخبرنا أبو عبد الله الصفار، ثنا محمد بن إبراهيم الأصبهاني، ثنا الحسين بن حفص، عن سفيان، عن أبي حصين، عن عبد الرحمن بن بشير الأنصاري، قال: أتى رجل فنادى ابن مسعود فأكب عليه، فقال: يا أبا عبد الرحمن متى أضل، وأنا أعلم؟ قال: «إذا كانت عليك أمراء إذا أطعتهم أدخلوك النار، وإذا عصيتهم قتلوك» وهذا موقوف صحيح الإسناد ولم يخرجاه ". قال الحاكم رحمه الله: «هذه أحاديث ذكرها عبد الله بن وهب في الملاحم، وعلوت فيها فأخرجتها، وإن كانت غير مسانيد»

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #8424 in al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim).

[Isnad Grading & Assessment]: Scholar verdicts : al-Dhahabi (Talkhis): صحيح.

[Core Subject]: Al-Malhamah al-Kubra is the great battle between the Muslims and the Romans (al-Rum) near the end of time. The narrations describe it as one of the fiercest wars in history.

[Described Characteristics]: The Romans land at al-A'maq or Dabiq in northern Syria. An army from Madinah, the best people on earth in that day, goes out to meet them. A third flees and Allah never accepts their repentance, a third are killed and are the best martyrs, and a third win and are never tried again. Sahih Muslim describes a battle so long that men pledge to fight to the death three days running, and so deadly that a bird flying past the bodies falls dead before reaching their end.

[Timeline & Context]: It comes after a truce with the Romans breaks down, and before the conquest of Constantinople and the Dajjal.

[Prophetic Practice]: The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Do not wish to meet the enemy; ask Allah for well-being. But if you meet them, be steadfast.'
