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

حدثنا الوليد، ورشدين، عن ابن لهيعة، عن أبي قبيل، عن أبي رومان، عن علي، قال: «يبعث بجيش إلى المدينة فيأخذون من قدروا عليه من آل محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم، ويقتل من بني هاشم رجال ونساء، فعند ذلك يهرب المهدي والمبيض من المدينة إلى مكة، فيبعث في طلبهما، وقد لحقا بحرم الله وأمنه»

He sends an army to Medina, and they seize whomever they can from the family of Muhammad ﷺ, and he kills men and women from Banu Hashim. Then, Al-Mahdi and Al-Mubaid escape from Medina to Mecca, and he sends in search of them, and they have reached the sanctuary and security of Allah.

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #923 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 Mahdi ('the rightly guided one') is a man from the Prophet's family, through Fatimah, who will lead the Muslims near the end of time and fill the earth with justice as it had been filled with oppression.

[Described Characteristics]: His name will match the Prophet's name and his father's name the Prophet's father's name (Muhammad ibn Abdullah). He has a broad forehead and a fine, high nose. He rules for seven years, wealth is plentiful in his time, and he gives it out by the handful without counting. Isa (AS) descends while he is about to lead the prayer.

[Timeline & Context]: He comes before the Dajjal, in the time of the great wars with the Romans, around the conquest of Constantinople and the descent of Isa (AS).

[Prophetic Practice]: Waiting for a rescuer is not the Sunnah. Work for justice where you are, and do not follow anyone who claims the title.

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Madinah, Makkah.
