Chapter 16: Destruction of the Kabah
Towards the end of time, an Abyssinian man known as Dhu-l Suwayqatayn will emerge and demolish the Kabah in order to get the treasure and its Kiswah (the covering of the Kabah).
Ka‘b al-Ahbar reported that Dhu-l Suwayqatayn will appear during the time of Prophet Isa (AS).
At that time, Allah SWT will send Prophet Isa (AS), who will lead a group of approximately 700–800 people.
Allah will then send a gentle breeze from the direction of Yemen, which will take the souls of all true believers.
Only the most corrupt people will remain on earth, and Ka‘b al-Ahbar said: At that time, the Hour will be close at hand.
Abdullah ibn Amr reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah say: Dhu-l Suwayqatayn from Abyssinia will destroy the Kabah 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 Kabah with his spade and pick-axe.
Abdullah ibn Umar reported that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: Leave the Abyssinians along so long as they do not disturb you, for no-one will recover the treasure of the Kabah except Dhu-l Suwayqatayn from Abyssinia. (Abu Dawud)
Abdullah ibn Abbas stated that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: It is as if I can see him now, he is black and his legs are widely spaced. He will destroy the Kabah stone by stone.
