The Horn of Shaythan

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

It is recorded in Swahih Muslim, that Sayyidina ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (r.a.) said, “The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.) once emerged from the room of his wife, ‘Aishah (r.a.), and pointing towards Najd, exclaimed, ‘This is the centre of kufr, from where the Horn of Shaythan will rise.’” 

Shaykh Sulayman ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhab an-Najdi (r.a.) wrote a refutation of the creed of his brother, Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhab, in his Sawa’iq al-Ilahiyyah ‘ala Radd al-Wahhabiyyah, and said, of Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhab, “You are that Horn of Shaythan.”
