“The Hour will not come until a fire emerges from the land of the Hejaz, illuminating the necks of camels in Busra.” Al-Bukhari (7118) and Muslim (2902). Ibn Taymiyyah said: “This fire appeared before most of the invaders reached Baghdad in 655 AH. Numerous reports from the people of Busra confirmed that they saw the camels' necks by its light. Reports of the fire became widely known after it appeared in the mountains of the Hejaz. It burned stone but did not cook meat, and people were greatly frightened.” [Al-Radd ala al-Mantiqiyyin, p. 446]
