The destruction of the Ka'bah
At the end of time, Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn, who will come from Abyssinia (al-
Habash), will destroy the Ka'bah in order to steal its treasure and Kiswah
(cloth covering). The Ka'bah is the ancient building which was built by
Abraham, and whose foundations were laid by Adam.
As Tafseer (interpretation) of the Aayah "Until the Gog and Magog
(people) are let through (their barrier)" [al-Anbiyaa' (21):96], it was
reported from Ka'b al-Ahbar that Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn will first emerge at
the time of Jesus, son of Mary. Allaah will send Jesus at the head of a
vanguard of between seven and eight hundred. While they are marching
towards Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn, Allaah will send a breeze from the direction
of Yemen, which will take the soul of every believer. Only the worst of
people will be left, and they will begin to copulate like animals. Ka'b said:
"At that time, the Hour will be close at hand." [1]
'Abd Allaah ibn 'Amr said,
"I heard the Prophet (sal-Allaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) say, 'Dhu'l-
Suwayqatayn from Abyssinia will destroy the Ka'bah and steal its
treasure and Kiswah. It is as if I could see him now: he is bald-headed
and has a distortion in his wrists. He will strike the Ka'bah with his spade
and pick-axe.' " [Ahmad] [2]
It was reported from 'Abd Allaah ibn 'Umar that the Prophet (sal-Allaahu
'alayhe wa sallam) said,
"Leave the Abyssinians alone so long as they do not disturb you, for no-
one will recover the treasure of the Ka'bah except Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn
from Abyssinia." [Abu Daawood, in the chapter on the prohibition of
provoking the Abyssinians] [3]
Ibn 'Abbaas narrated that the Prophet (sal-Allaahu 'alayhe wa sallam)
said,
"It is as if I can see him now: he is black and his legs are widely spaced.
He will destroy the Ka'bah stone by stone." [Ahmad] [4]
The Prophet (sal-Allaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) said,
"The Hour will not come until a man from Qahtaan appears and rules the
people." [Muslim; similar Hadeeth in Bukhaaree]

This man could be Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn, or someone else, because this
man comes from Qahtaan, while other reports say that Dhu'l-
Suwayqatayn comes from Abyssinia; and Allaah knows best.
Abu Hurairah said,
"The Prophet (sal-Allaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) said, 'Day and night will not
come to an end until a freed man called Jahjaah holds sway.' " [Ahmad]
[5]
This could be the name of Dhul-Suwayqatayn from Abyssinia; and Allaah
knows best.
'Umar ibn al-Khattab reported that he heard the Prophet (sal-Allaahu
'alayhe wa sallam) say:
"The people of Makkah will leave, and only a few people will pass
through it. Then it will be resettled and rebuilt; then the people will leave it
again, and no-one will ever return." [6]

Hadam al-Ka'bah (The Book of Pilgrimage, Chapter of the Destruction of
the Ka'bah), 2/183. Muslim, Kitaab al-Fitan wa Ashraat al-Saa'ah, 8/183.
Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn: al-Suwayqatayn is the dimunitive of al-Saaqayn
(legs); his legs are described as being "small" because they are thin. Thin
legs are, in general, a characteristic of the Sudanese and people of the
Horn of Africa.

Madeenah will remain inhabited at the time of the Dajjaal
It has been proven in the Saheeh Ahaadeeth, as already stated, that the
Dajjaal will not be able to enter Makkah and Madeenah, and that there
will be angels at the gates of Makkah to ward him off and prevent him

from entering.
It was reported from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (sal-Allaahu 'alayhe
wa sallam) said,
"Neither the Dajjaal nor plague will be able to enter Madeenah."
As mentioned above, the Dajjaal will camp outside Madeenah, and it will
be shaken by three tremors. Every hypocrite and sinner will go out to join
the Dajjaal, and every believer and Muslim will stay. That day will be
called the Day of Purification (Yawm al-Khalaas). Most of those who go
out to join the Dajjaal will be women. As the Prophet (sal-Allaahu 'alayhe
wa sallam) said,
"Verily it (Madeenah) is good; its evil will be eliminated and its goodness
will be obvious."
Allaah (subhaanahu wa ta'aala) said:
"Women impure are for men impure, and men impure for women impure,
and women of purity are for men of purity, and men of purity are for
women of purity..." [an-Noor (24):26)
Madeenah will remain inhabited during the days of the Dajjaal, and
during the time of Jesus son of Mary (alayhi-salam), until he dies and is
buried there. Then it will be destroyed.
'Umar ibn al-Khattab said,
"I heard the Prophet (sal-Allaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) say, 'A rider will go
around Madeenah and say, There used to be many Muslims here.' "

The Emergence of the Beast
Among the signs of the Hour will be the emergence of a beast from the
earth. It will be very strange inappearance, and extremely huge; one
cannot even imagine what it will look like. It will emerge from the earth
and shake the dust from its head. It will have with it the ring of Solomon
and the rod of Moses. People will be terrified of it and will try to run away,
but they will not be able to escape, because such will be the decree of
Allaah. It will destroy the nose of every unbeliever with the rod, and write
the word "Kaafir" on his forehead; it will adorn the face of every believer
and write the word "Mu'min" (true believer) on his forehead, and it will
speak to people.
