Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #943 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]: Three great collapses of the earth (khusuf): one in the east, one in the west, and one in the Arabian Peninsula. Whole areas will sink into the ground.

[Described Characteristics]: The narration names them as three of the ten great signs and gives no further detail. A separate sahih narration describes an army that marches to attack the Ka'bah and is swallowed by the earth in a desert plain (al-Bayda').

[Timeline & Context]: They are among the ten great signs, which come close together near the end.

[Prophetic Practice]: When the Prophet ﷺ saw a strong wind or dark cloud, his face changed and he turned to Allah in dua until it passed.

[Core Subject]: An army that marches to attack one seeking refuge at the Kaaba will be swallowed by the earth at al-Bayda, between Mecca and Medina.

[Described Characteristics]: A'ishah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said an army would come against the House (the Kaaba), and when they were at a level stretch of land (al-Bayda) they would be swallowed, the first of them and the last; she asked how those forced along without their will would fare, and he said they would be swallowed with them but raised according to their intentions (Sahih Muslim 2884; cf. Abu Dawud 4286).

[Timeline & Context]: Reported among the events of the end of time, in several narrations tied to the era of the Mahdi; scholars set no date.

[Prophetic Practice]: Guard your intentions and the company you march with; a person is gathered on the Day of Resurrection according to what was in the heart.

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Madinah.
