It is narrated from Hazrat Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took me to a place near the villages of Makkah Mukarramah, which was a dry land and there was sand around it. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The emergence of Dabbat al-Ard will be from here." It was a place one span wide and one inch long.
