Hadith #53546
وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تُقَاتِلُوا خُوزًا وَكِرْمَانَ مِنَ الْأَعَاجِمِ حُمْرَ الْوُجُوهِ فُطْسَ الْأُنُوفِ صِغَارَ الْأَعْيُنِ وُجُوهُهُمُ الْمَجَانُّ الْمُطْرَقَةُ نِعَالُهُمُ الشّعْر» . رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ
وَفِي راوية لَهُ وَعَن عَمْرو بن تغلب: «عراض الْوُجُوه»
He reported God's messenger as saying, "The last hour will not come before you fight with Khuz and Kirman[*] who are foreigners with red faces, snub noses and small eyes, whose faces look as if they were shields covered with skin and whose sandals are of hair."
*Yaqut, Mu'jam, ii, 494, says Khuz is used both of Khuzistan and of its people. The districts mentioned are in what is now Iran.
Bukhari transmitted it. A version of his on the authority of `Amr b. Taghlib has ``broad faces."
