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

حدثنا الوليد بن مسلم، عن أبي عبيدة الأشجعي، عن أبي أمية الكلبي، أنه حدثهم في، خلافة يزيد بن عبد الملك، عن شيخ، لهم أدرك الجاهلية، قال: «يليكم بعد موت هشام رجل منهم شاب يعطي الناس عطايا لم يعطها أحد قبله، فينشأ به رجل من أهل بيته خفي لم يذكر فيقتله، فتهراق على يديه الدماء، وتنقطع على يديه الأرحام، وتهرج على يديه الأموال، ثم يأتيكم مرين من هاهنا، وأشار إلى الجزيرة، فيأخذها بسيفه قسرا، ثم تأتيكم بعد مرين الرايات السود يسيلون عليكم سيلا»

After the death of Hisham, there will be a young man among them who gives people gifts that no one had given before him. A man from his family, secret and unmentioned, appears and kills him. Blood will spill on his hands, ties of kinship will be severed on his hands, and money will flow on his hands. Then he will come to you from here, pointing to the island, and forcibly seize it with his sword. Then after two passes, the black flags will come to you, raining down upon you in a torrent.

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #537 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]: Black banners coming from the east, from Khurasan, appear in several reports as an army that comes before or with the Mahdi.

[Described Characteristics]: The best-known reports say: 'Black banners will come from Khurasan and nothing will turn them back until they are planted in Iliya (Jerusalem)', and 'If you see them, go to them even crawling over snow'. Hadith scholars graded these reports weak.

[Timeline & Context]: No sahih narration fixes their time.

[Prophetic Practice]: A flag's colour proves nothing. Judge any group by the Quran and Sunnah, not by its claims about prophecy.
