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.

حدثنا عبد الله بن مروان، عن أرطاة، عن تبيع، عن كعب، قال: " ثلاث فتن تكون بالشام: فتنة إهراقة الدماء، وفتنة قطع الأرحام ونهب الأموال، ثم يليها فتنة المغرب وهي العمياء "

Three trials will occur in the Sham (Greater Syria): the trial of bloodshed, the trial of cutting ties and plundering money, then followed by the trial of the Maghreb, which is blinding.

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #656 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 breakdown of family and community bonds before the Hour: severing ties of kinship (qati'at al-rahim), mistreating neighbors, giving false testimony, and concealing truthful witness.

[Described Characteristics]: In authentic narrations from Abdullah ibn Mas'ud and Anas (Musnad Ahmad 3870, al-Mustadrak 7043), the Prophet ﷺ counted among the signs before the Hour: the severing of blood ties, bad neighborliness, the spread of false testimony (shahadat al-zur), and the hiding of true testimony.

[Timeline & Context]: Grouped among the social and moral minor signs that spread when trust (amanah) is lost.

[Prophetic Practice]: Maintain family ties even with those who cut you off, honor your neighbor, and stand firm as a witness for justice (Qur'an 4:135).

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Sham (Greater Syria).
