Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Nazrah that he said: On Friday, we came to Hazrat Usman bin Abu al-As so that we could compare our (written) scroll with his scroll. Then Hazrat Usman bin Abu al-As arrived, and we gathered around him. Hazrat Usman said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: The Muslims will have three cities. One city will be at the confluence of two seas, one city will be on an island, and one city will be in Syria (Sham). Then the people will be alarmed three times. Then Dajjal will emerge among the military armies and will be defeated towards the east. The first city he will go to will be the city at the confluence of two seas. Its inhabitants will be divided into three groups: one group will stay there and say, "We will go near him and see what he is," one group will join the villagers, and one group will go to the neighboring city. With him (i.e., Dajjal) will be seventy thousand people wearing green sheets. Most of his followers will be Jews and women. Then he will come to the neighboring city. Its inhabitants will be divided into three groups: one group will stay there and say, "We will go near him and see what he is," one group will join the villagers, and the third group will go to their neighboring city. Then he will go to Syria. The Muslims will gather at the place of Aqabah Afiq. They will send their cattle, and their cattle will suffer harm. This will be hard on them, and they will experience severe hunger and hardship, to the extent that one of them will burn the string of his bow and eat it. While they are in this state, at dawn a caller will call out, "O people, your help has arrived!" He will call out three times. They will say to each other, "Surely this is the voice of a satisfied man." Isa (peace be upon him) will descend at the time of Fajr prayer, and the leader of the people will say to him, "O Spirit of Allah! Come forward and lead us in prayer." Isa will say, "You are the leaders of this Ummah over one another. You go forward and lead us in prayer." The leader will go forward and lead them in prayer. When they finish the prayer, Isa will take his spear and go towards Dajjal. When Dajjal sees him, he will melt as lead melts. Isa will place his spear between his chest and kill him. Then his companions will be defeated.
