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

حدثنا ابن وهب، عن عاصم بن حكيم، عن يحيى بن أبي عمرو السيباني، عن ابن محيريز، قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «إنما فارس نطحة أو نطحتان، ثم لا فارس بعد الروم ذات القرون، كلما ذهب قرن خلفهم قرن مكانه، أصحاب صخر وبحر، هيهات هيهات إلى آخر الدهر، هم أصحابكم ما كان في العيش خير»

Only a knight will go head-to-head or two, and then there will be no knight after the horned Romans. Every time a century goes behind them, a century comes in its place. Companions of rock and sea. Far from, far from, until the end of time. They are your companions. There is no good in life.

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #1346 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]: Al-Rum, the Romans, were the Byzantine Empire in the Prophet's time. Many narrations about the end speak of the Muslims' relations with them: a truce, a joint war, then the great battle.

[Described Characteristics]: Amr ibn al-As heard that the Hour will come when the Romans are the most numerous of people, and he listed their good qualities: they are the most forbearing in trial, the quickest to recover after a disaster, the best to the poor, orphans and the weak, and they resist the oppression of kings.

[Timeline & Context]: Their part runs through the whole time before the Dajjal: first the truce, then the war, then the conquest of Constantinople.

[Prophetic Practice]: Amr's words teach fairness: name the good in others even when speaking of conflict.
