Riyad as-Salihin: Book 18, Hadith 16

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “People will desert Al-Madinah in spite of it being in better condition except for wild beasts and birds. The Last Hour will happen upon two shepherds of the tribe of Muzainah. They will enter Al-Madinah driving their sheep but will find it full of wild beasts and would turn away. When they will arrive at the hill named Thaniyyat-ul-Wada’ they will fall on their faces.”.

وعنه قال‏:‏ سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول‏:‏ ‏
“‏يتركون المدينة على خير ما كانت، لا يغشاها إلا العوافي -يريد‏:‏ عوافي السباع والطير، وآخر من يحشر راعيان من مزينة يريدان المدينة ينعقان بغنمهما فيجدانها وحوشاً، حتى إذا بلغا ثنية الوداع خراً على وجوههما‏”‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
