Summary

The hadith about the Kaaba being destroyed by Dhu al-Suwaqatain from Abyssinia is authentic and is narrated by al-Bukhari and Muslim. The event takes place at the end of time, close to the Day of Judgement, when no believers remain on earth. God's promise of a safe sanctuary does not contradict the hadith because, according to al-Nawawi, that safety lasts until shortly before the Judgement.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Kesimpulannya, hadith yang membicarakan berkaitan kemusnahan Ka'bah yang akan berlaku di akhir zaman adalah hadith yang sahih dan ia akan dimusnahkan oleh orang-orang Habsyah
