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

Traced to Ka'b al-Ahbar (automatic guess): a report of earlier scriptures, not a hadith of the Prophet ﷺ.

قال حدثنا نعيم ثنا عبد الرزاق، عن معمر، عن أيوب، عن ابن الضيف، عن كعب، قال: «إذا قتل الله يأجوج ومأجوج، فبينما الناس كذلك إذ جاءهم الصراخ أن ذا السويقتين قد غزا البيت يريده، فيبعث عيسى ابن مريم عليه السلام طليعة سبعمائة، أو بين السبع مائة والثمان مائة، حتى إذا كانوا ببعض الطريق بعث الله ريحا يمانية طيبة فتقبض روح كل مؤمن، ثم يبقى عجاج من الناس، يتسافدون كما يتسافد البهائم، فمثل الساعة مثل رجل يطيف حول فرسه ينتظر حتى تضع، فمن تكلف بعد قولي هذا شيئا أو بعد علمي هذا شيئا فهو المتكلف»

If Allah kills Gog and Magog, while the people are like that, when the scream comes to them that the One with the Two Stems has invaded the House, seeking it, then Jesus, son of Mary, (peace be upon him) sends a vanguard of seven hundred, or between the seven hundred and eight hundred, until when they are some way, Allah sends a pleasant Yemeni wind that takes the soul of every believer, and then a crowd of people remains, crowding together like animals flock together, so the likeness of an hour is like a man circling around His mare is waiting until she gives birth, so whoever assumes anything after I say this or after I know this is the one who is arrogant

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #1897 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]: Isa (Jesus, AS), son of Maryam, was not killed or crucified; Allah raised him up. Near the end of time he descends again, kills the Dajjal, and rules by the law of Muhammad ﷺ as a just ruler.

[Described Characteristics]: He descends at the white minaret east of Damascus, wearing two saffron-dyed garments, his hands on the wings of two angels. When he lowers his head, drops fall like pearls. He finds the Dajjal at the gate of Lud and kills him. He breaks the cross, kills the pig, abolishes the jizyah, and wealth becomes so plentiful no one accepts it. He lives on earth for a time, marries, then dies and the Muslims pray over him.

[Timeline & Context]: He descends during the Dajjal's forty days, just as the Muslims are getting ready for prayer, and Ya'juj and Ma'juj come out in his time.

[Prophetic Practice]: The Prophet ﷺ said: whoever of you meets him, convey my salam to him.

[Core Subject]: Ya'juj and Ma'juj (Gog and Magog) are two huge peoples, descendants of Adam, held back behind a barrier of iron and copper that Dhul-Qarnayn built. Near the end the barrier gives way and they pour out across the earth.

[Described Characteristics]: They come down from every height. Their first ranks drink Lake Tiberias dry, and the last say 'there was water here once'. No one can fight them, so Allah tells Isa (AS) to take the believers up Mount Tur. Isa and his companions pray, Allah sends worms into their necks, and they all die in one night. Birds carry the bodies away and a rain washes the earth clean.

[Timeline & Context]: They come out after the Dajjal is killed, in the time of Isa (AS). It is one of the ten great signs.

[Prophetic Practice]: When Zaynab asked, 'Will we be destroyed while there are righteous among us?', he said, 'Yes, if filth increases.' Guarding against open evil is our part.

[Core Subject]: Near the end, a man from Abyssinia called Dhu al-Suwayqatayn ('the one with two thin shins') will tear down the Ka'bah stone by stone.

[Described Characteristics]: He is described as black, with splayed legs, pulling the stones out one by one and taking its treasure. After that, the Ka'bah is not rebuilt.

[Timeline & Context]: Scholars such as Ibn Hajar place it after the death of Isa (AS) and the gentle wind, when no one is left who says 'Allah, Allah', so no believer is there to defend it.

[Prophetic Practice]: The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Make much of this House (by Hajj and Umrah) before it is lifted.'
