Read with care: this book is ungraded, and hadith scholars judge it weak overall.Details

Read with care: this is one of the oldest books on the end times, but hadith scholars judge most of its reports weak. Many chains are broken and much of it comes from earlier scriptures (Isra'iliyyat). It is here for history and research, not as a basis for belief or practice.

Traced to Ka'b al-Ahbar (automatic guess): a report of earlier scriptures, not a hadith of the Prophet ﷺ.

إذا خسف بقرية يقال لها حرستا، وخلع خليفتان من بني العباس، واختلف آل العباس بينهم حتى يرفع فيهم اثنا عشر لواء، وثنتا عشرة راية، فعندها يغلب عليهم الفتن في دار ملكهم، وبها يجتمعون، فعند ذلك الآخرة، ويعبر جيحون، وبها يجتمعون، وعند ذلك سقوط ملكهم، وخروج البربر على الشام

If a village called Harasta is eclipsed, and two caliphs from the Abbasids are deposed, and the Abbasids disagree among themselves until twelve banners and twelve banners are raised among them, then turmoil will prevail over them in the abode of their kingship, and they will gather in it, and at that time the Hereafter, and the Gihon will cross, and in it they will gather, and at that time their king will fall, and the barbarians will emerge from the Sham (Greater Syria).
