'Ubayd ibn Abi Qurrah narrated to us, Layth ibn Sa'd narrated to us, from Abu Qabil, from Abu Maysarah, from al-'Abbas (رضي الله عنه), who said: "I was with the Prophet ﷺ one night, and he said: 'Look, do you see any star in the sky?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'What do you see?' I said: 'I see the Pleiades.' He said: 'Indeed, there shall rule over this nation from your descendants a number equal to them, two of whom during a time of tribulation.'"
