Narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: The Hour will not be established until the Muslims fight the Jews, and the Muslims will kill them, until a Jew will hide behind a stone or a tree, and the stone or tree will say: O Muslim! O servant of Allah! There is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Except for the Gharqad tree, for it is the tree of the Jews (it is a thorny tree which is found in abundance towards Bayt al-Maqdis).
