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

حدثنا الحكم بن نافع، عن سعيد بن سنان، عن أبي الزاهرية، عن حذيفة بن اليمان، رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " يكون بينكم وبين بني الأصفر الروم هدنة فيغدرون بكم في حمل امرأة، يأتون في ثمانين غاية في البر والبحر، تحت كل غاية اثنا عشر ألفا، حتى ينزلوا بين يافا وعكا، فيحرق صاحب مملكتهم سفنهم، يقول لأصحابه: قاتلوا عن بلادكم، فيلتحم القتال، ويمد الأجناد بعضهم بعضا حتى يمدكم من بحضرموت من اليمن، فيومئذ يطعن فيهم الرحمن برمحه، ويضرب فيهم بسيفه، ويرمي فيهم بنبله، ويكون منه فيهم الذبح الأعظم "

There will be a truce between you and the Banu Asfar, the Romans, and they will betray you by carrying a woman. They will come in eighty camps on land and sea, with twelve thousand under each camp, until they land between Jaffa and Acre, and the owner of their kingdom will burn their ships. He will say to his companions: Fight for your country, and the battle will break out, and the soldiers will extend each other until someone from Hadhramaut from Yemen supplies you. On that day, the Most Merciful will stab them with his spear and strike them with his sword. He throws his arrow at them, and it causes the greatest slaughter among them

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #1426 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.

[Core Subject]: The Prophet ﷺ said the Muslims will make a secure peace with the Romans, and together they will fight a common enemy.

[Described Characteristics]: They win and take spoils, and camp in a green meadow. A man from the Christians raises the cross and says 'The cross has won', a Muslim gets angry and breaks it, and the Romans betray the truce and gather for the great battle. In the hadith of Awf ibn Malik, there will be a truce with the Banu al-Asfar, who then come under eighty banners with twelve thousand men under each.

[Timeline & Context]: This truce opens the time before the Dajjal, and the great battle follows it.

[Prophetic Practice]: Keeping one's word is part of faith. Treaties are kept until the other side breaks them.

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Yemen.
