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

حدثنا أبو عمر، عن ابن لهيعة، عن عبد الوهاب بن حسين، عن محمد بن ثابت، عن أبيه، عن الحارث، عن ابن مسعود، رضي الله عنه، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: " إذا عبر السفياني الفرات، وبلغ موضعا يقال له عاقرقوفا، محا الله تعالى الإيمان من قلبه، فيقتل بها إلى نهر يقال له الدجيل سبعين ألفا متقلدين سيوفا محلاة، وما سواهم أكثر، فيظهرون على بيت الذهب، فيقتلون المقاتلة والأبطال، ويبقرون بطون النساء، يقولون: لعلها حبلى بغلام، وتستغيث نسوة من قريش على شط الدجلة إلى المارة من أهل السفن يطلبن إليهم أن يحملوهن حتى يلقوهن إلى الناس، فلا يحملوهن بغضا لبني هاشم، فلا تبغضوا بني هاشم، فإن منهم نبي الرحمة، ومنهم الطيار في الجنة، فأما النساء فإذا جنهم الليل أوين إلى أغورها مكانا مخافة الفساق، ثم يأتيهم المدد من النصرة حتى يستنقذوا ما مع السفياني من الذراري والنساء من بغداد والكوفة "

When the Sufyani crossed the Euphrates and reached a place called Aqarqofa, Allah Almighty erased the faith from his heart, and he would kill seventy thousand people with it drawn up with painted swords, and more than anything else, and they would appear at the Bayt al-Dahab, kill the fighter and the heroes, and cut open the stomachs of the women. They would say: Perhaps she is pregnant with a boy. Women from the Quraysh on the shore of the Tigris would cry for help to the people of the ships passing by, asking them to carry them until They will throw them to the people, so do not hate them for the Banu Hashim, so do not hate the Banu Hashim, for among them is the Prophet of Mercy, and among them is the pilot in Paradise. As for the women, when the night falls upon them, they take refuge in its caves, a place for fear of the immoral, then the reinforcements of victory will come to them until they rescue the children of the Sufyani and the women from Baghdad and Kufa.

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #885 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 Sufyani is a figure from the descendants of Abu Sufyan who, according to some reports, will rise in Sham before the Mahdi, spread oppression, and send an army that is swallowed by the earth.

[Described Characteristics]: There is no narration about the Sufyani in Bukhari, Muslim or the other six books. The reports come mainly from Nu'aym ibn Hammad's Kitab al-Fitan and al-Hakim's al-Mustadrak; al-Dhahabi and other critics judged them weak or very weak.

[Timeline & Context]: The weak reports put him before the Mahdi. Because they are weak, no firm order can be built on them.

[Prophetic Practice]: Build your understanding of the end on what is authentic, and leave what is weak to the specialists.

[Core Subject]: The Euphrates (al-Furat) will uncover a mountain (or treasure) of gold, and people will fight over it.

[Described Characteristics]: Of every hundred who fight over it, ninety-nine are killed, and each one says 'perhaps I will be the one who survives'. The Prophet ﷺ said: whoever is present then should not take anything from it.

[Timeline & Context]: The narrations give no fixed place in the sequence. Scholars list it among the signs before the great signs.

[Prophetic Practice]: The command is to stay away from it. Greed for wealth is the trial, not the gold.

[Core Subject]: Jannah, Paradise, is the eternal home of the believers: 'what no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no heart has imagined'.

[Described Characteristics]: Gardens with rivers of water, milk, honey and pure drink; a hundred levels, the highest al-Firdaws under the Throne. No illness, no ageing, no sorrow, no death. Its greatest joy is seeing Allah, and His saying: 'I am pleased with you and will never be displeased with you after this.'

[Timeline & Context]: After the Bridge, the believers enter it forever. Paradise already exists now.

[Prophetic Practice]: 'When you ask Allah, ask for al-Firdaws.'

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Kufa, Baghdad, Euphrates.
