Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that Sayyidah Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) used to treat the wounded in the army of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). She said: "O Messenger of Allah! Would that you supplicate to Allah for my son." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "For Unays?" She said: "Yes." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) seated me in front of him, passed his hand over my head and said: "O Unays! After me the Muslims will found many cities, and among them will be a city called Basrah. If you happen to go there, then keep away from its fayd (water channels), its market and the door of its ruler, for in it there will be the earth swallowing people, the disfiguring of forms and a rain of stones. The sign of that time is that justice will die out, oppression will become widespread, fornication will become abundant and false testimony will spread."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is not narrated from Ziyad bin al-Abras except with this chain."
