Kitab al-Fitan of Nu'aym ibn Hammad: ungraded, and weak overall. Never established on its own.

حدثنا الوليد، ورشدين، عن ابن لهيعة، قال: حدثني أبو زرعة، عن محمد بن علي، قال: " إذا سمع العائذ الذي بمكة بالخسف خرج مع اثني عشر ألفا، فيهم الأبدال، حتى ينزلوا إيلياء، فيقول الذي بعث الجيش حين يبلغه الخبر بإيلياء: لعمرو الله لقد جعل الله في هذا الرجل عبرة، بعثت إليه ما بعثت فساخوا في الأرض، إن هذا لعبرة وبصيرة، ويؤدي إليه السفياني الطاعة، ثم يخرج حتى يلقى كلبا وهم أخواله، فيعيرونه بما صنع ويقولون: كساك الله قميصا فخلعته؟ فيقول: ما ترون، أستقيله البيعة؟ فيقولون: نعم، فيأتيه إلى إيلياء فيقول: أقلني، فيقول: إني غير فاعل، فيقول: بلى، فيقول له: أتحب أن أقيلك؟ فيقول: نعم، ثم يقول: هذا رجل قد خلع طاعتي، فيأمر به عند ذلك فيذبح على بلاطة إيلياء، ثم يسير إلى كلب، فالخائب من خاب يوم نهب كلب "

If the seeker in Mecca hears of the eclipse, he will go out with twelve thousand, including the Abdals, until they come down to Elijah. Then the one who sent the army when the news of Elijah reaches him says: By Amr Allah, Allah has made this man an example. I sent to him what I sent, so they disobeyed the land. Indeed, this is a lesson and an insight, and the Sufyani obeys him, then he goes out until he meets a dog, and they are his uncles, and they reproach him for what he has done and say: May Allah cover you with a shirt. So you took it off? He says: What do you see? Should he resign the pledge of allegiance? They say: Yes, so he comes to Elia and says: Pick me up, and he says: I am not doing it. He says: Yes, and he says to him: Would you like me to sack you? He says: Yes, then he says: This is a man who has renounced my obedience. Then he orders him to slaughter on Ilya’s flagstone, then he walks to Kalb. So, the one who is disappointed is the one who is disappointed on the day Kalb is looted.

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #1002 in Kitab al-Fitan (Nu'aym ibn Hammad).

[Scholarly Verification Notice]: Recorded in Nu'aym ibn Hammad's Kitab al-Fitan (d. 228 AH). Hadith scholars classify this historical compilation as ungraded and weak overall; its isolated reports are not accepted as established doctrine unless corroborated by standard Sahih works.

[Core Subject]: The Sufyani is a figure from the descendants of Abu Sufyan who, according to some reports, will rise in Sham before the Mahdi, spread oppression, and send an army that is swallowed by the earth.

[Described Characteristics]: There is no narration about the Sufyani in Bukhari, Muslim or the other six books. The reports come mainly from Nu'aym ibn Hammad's Kitab al-Fitan and al-Hakim's al-Mustadrak; al-Dhahabi and other critics judged them weak or very weak.

[Timeline & Context]: The weak reports put him before the Mahdi. Because they are weak, no firm order can be built on them.

[Prophetic Practice]: Build your understanding of the end on what is authentic, and leave what is weak to the specialists.

[Core Subject]: Three great collapses of the earth (khusuf): one in the east, one in the west, and one in the Arabian Peninsula. Whole areas will sink into the ground.

[Described Characteristics]: The narration names them as three of the ten great signs and gives no further detail. A separate sahih narration describes an army that marches to attack the Ka'bah and is swallowed by the earth in a desert plain (al-Bayda').

[Timeline & Context]: They are among the ten great signs, which come close together near the end.

[Prophetic Practice]: When the Prophet ﷺ saw a strong wind or dark cloud, his face changed and he turned to Allah in dua until it passed.

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Makkah, Baitul Maqdis (Jerusalem).
