حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَرَفَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تُقَاتِلُوا قَوْمًا صِغَارَ الأَعْيُنِ عِرَاضَ الْوُجُوهِ كَأَنَّ أَعْيُنَهُمْ حَدَقُ الْجَرَادِ كَأَنَّ وُجُوهَهُمُ الْمَجَانُّ الْمُطْرَقَةُ يَنْتَعِلُونَ الشَّعَرَ وَيَتَّخِذُونَ الدَّرَقَ يَرْبِطُونَ خَيْلَهُمْ بِالنَّخْلِ " .

It was narrated from Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri that the Messenger ofAllah(ﷺ) said:
"The Hour will not begin until you fight peoplewith smalleyes and wide faces, as if their eyes are the pupils oflocusts and asif their faces are hammered shields. They will bewearing shoes ofhair, using leather shields and tying their horsesto date-palmtrees."
