The emergence of the fire

Sayyiduna Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We were coming with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When we saw Dhu al-Hulayfah, some men hurried on ahead to Madinah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) spent the night there, and we also spent the night there. In the morning, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked about those people, and it was said: They have hurried on to Madinah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They have hurried to Madinah and to the women. These people will soon abandon Madinah while it is in a better state than it ever was." Then he said: "I wish I knew when a fire will come out from Yemen, from the mountain of al-Warraq, by which the necks of the camels kneeling at Busra will be lit up like the light of day."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except Habib bin Jammaz, and he is thiqah (trustworthy).

Rafi' bin Busr (the narrator is unsure; perhaps the wording is: Bishr) al-Sulami narrates from his father (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Soon a fire will come out from the place 'Hubs Sayl', and it will move the way a slow camel moves. It will travel during the day and halt at night. It will set off in the morning and set off in the evening. It will be said: 'The fire has set off in the morning, O people, so you set off too.' 'The fire has rested at midday, O people, so you rest.' 'The fire has set off in the evening, O people, so you set off.' Whoever it overtakes, it will devour."
Ahmad and al-Tabarani recorded it, and the narrators of Ahmad are the narrators of the Sahih, except Rafi', and he is thiqah (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A fire will be sent upon the people of the east and it will gather them and drive them to the west. It will spend the night with them wherever they spend the night, and it will rest at midday with them wherever they rest at midday. Whatever of them falls and whoever lags behind will belong to that fire, and then it will drive them along the way a camel with a broken bone is driven."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Salam (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he was asked about the first of the signs of the Hour, and he said: "The first of the signs of the Hour will be a fire that comes out from the east and gathers the people and drives them to the west."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Asim bin Adi al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Shortly after he had arrived, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked us: "Where is Hubs Sayl?" We replied: We do not know. Then a man from Banu Sulaym passed by me, and I asked: Where have you come from? He said: From Hubs Sayl. I called for my sandals and hurried down to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I said: O Messenger of Allah! You asked us about Hubs Sayl, and we said that we had no knowledge of it. Just now a man passed by me, I asked him, and he says that his family lives there. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked that man about it and said: "Where is your family?" He replied: At Hubs Sayl. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Take your family out of there, for soon a fire will come out from there by which the necks of the camels at Busra will be lit up."
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Ibrahim bin Isma'il bin Mujammi', who is da'if (weak).
