Most of his followers will be illegitimate and will be wearing green turbans.
Most of his followers will be illegitimate and will be wearing green turbans. He will then be killed by the ‘One’ a.s who will be the Imam a.s of Hazrat Isa -as in congressional prayers. This will happen at the place of ‘Aqabah’ near ‘Sham’ (Syria) between afternoon and evening. After this there will be tremendous devastation. People then asked, O Imam -as ! what will be that calamity?
Mola Ali -as replied that Rasool Allah -saww said: ‘Dabba-tul-Arz’ will be born near the mountain of Safa (near Mecca). He will have the ring of Hazrat Sulaman -as and ‘Asa’ (walking stick) of Hazrat Musa -as . He will inscribe on the forehead of ‘Momin’ (true believer) using the ring and will write on the forehead of ‘Kafir’ using the ‘Asa’. Momin’s forehead would read ‘ this is true believer’ whereas Kafir’s forehead could be read as ‘this is non-believer’.
Then ‘Dabba-tul-Arz’ would raise his head and will be clearly seen by all. This will happen after Sun rise from the West (instead of East)-at this time no repentance will be accepted. Amir ul momaneen -as then said, ‘ do not ask any further because Rasool Allah -as has barred all other details for anyone else but Ahlul Bait -as . The narrator states, ‘I, later on, asked from Sahsah, ‘please tell me about the ‘person’ who will be followed by Hazrat Isa -as in the congressional prayers.
The answer was he will be the 9 th Divine Imam -as from the bloodline of Imam Hussain -as , who will appear between the ‘Rukan-e-Hajar and Muqam-e-Ibrahim’ [4] and re-establish justice as it will be filled with cruelty. There are a number of Ahadith from Masomeen -as which indicate that ‘Dabba-tul-Arz’ will, in fact be Amir-al-Momaneen -as and will appear after the ‘zahoor’ of Imam Mehdi -as and this time will be very close the Day of Judgement.
Also in a Hadith, فس: الحسين بن عبد الله السكيني، عن أبي سعيد البجلي، عن عبد الملك بن هارون، عن أبي عبد الله، عن آبائه عليهم السلام قال: قال الحسن بن علي عليه السلام فيما ناظر به ملك الروم: كان عمر عيسى عليه السلام في الدنيا ثلاثة وثلاثين سنة، ثم رفعه الله إلى السماء، ويهبط إلى الارض بدمشق، وهو الذي يقتل الدجال.
