حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْفَرْوِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " تُقَاتِلُونَ الْيَهُودَ حَتَّى يَخْتَبِيَ أَحَدُهُمْ وَرَاءَ الْحَجَرِ ، فَيَقُولُ : يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ هَذَا يَهُودِيٌّ وَرَائِي فَاقْتُلْهُ " .
Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: Allah's Apostle said, "You (i.e. Muslims) will fight wi the Jews till some of them will hide behind stones. The stones will (betray them) saying, 'O `Abdullah (i.e. slave of Allah)! There is a Jew hiding behind me; so kill him.' "

Hadith Commentary:
1.
In Musnad Imam Ahmad, the details of this hadith are mentioned: that the Messiah al-Dajjal will camp outside Madinah Tayyibah on a stony land. There, Allah, the Exalted, will grant the Muslims dominance over him until his followers are killed there. The Jews will wander, hiding behind stones and trees. At that time, the trees and stones will speak and say: "O Muslim! A Jew is hiding behind me, so kill him." (: Musnad Ahmad: 67/2) In Sunan Ibn Majah, there is an addition to these words: At that time, seventy thousand Jews will be with the Dajjal. Prophet Isa (alayhis salam) will kill the Dajjal near "Ludd." In this way, the Jews will face a severe defeat. (: Sunan Ibn Majah, Al-Fitan, Hadith: 4077)
2.
In this, there is a prophecy of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) which will be fulfilled near the Day of Judgment.
