4099. It was narrated from Abu Sa‘eed Al-Khudri that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “The Hour will not begin until you fight people with small eyes and wide faces, as if their eyes are the pupils of locusts and as if their faces are hammered shields. They will be wearing shoes of hair, using leather shields and tying their horses to date-palm trees.” (Sahih)

Arabic text

4099 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَرَفَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تُقَاتِلُوا قَوْمًا صِغَارَ الْأَعْيُنِ، عِرَاضَ الْوُجُوهِ، كَأَنَّ أَعْيُنَهُمْ حَدَقُ الْجَرَادِ، كَأَنَّ وُجُوهَهُمُ الْمَجَانُّ الْمُطْرَقَةُ، يَنْتَعِلُونَ الشَّعَرَ، وَيَتَّخِذُونَ الدَّرَقَ، يَرْبُطُونَ خَيْلَهُمْ بِالنَّخْلِ»

Commentary

Allāmah Baidāwī، said: “The reason of comparing their faces to a shield is that their features will be flat, and their faces will be round. The expression of being ‘coated or plaited’ means that they will be fatty and fleshy.” (Fathul-Bārī, volume 6, page 743) Abu Hurairah ؓ، said: “The Hadīth means the people of Bāriz’; who are Kurds.” Allah knows best. In the Name of Allāh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
