EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ predicted that a man from Ethiopia named Dhul-Suwayqatayn would demolish the Ka’ba. This prediction was made during his lifetime and it is believed to have come true in 930 CE when an Ethiopian ruler named Abraha Al Ashram invaded Mecca and attempted to destroy the holy site. This hadith serves as a reminder of Allah's power and His ability to make prophecies come true. It also teaches us that we should never underestimate Allah's power or His plans for us. We should always strive to do our best in life and trust in Him for guidance and protection.
