What is the authenticity of the hadith, "In Ramadan there will be a tremor, in Shawwal a calamity, in Dhu al-Qi'dah annihilation, in Dhu al-Hijjah the pilgrim will be plundered, and in Muharram—what is Muharram!" which refers to the appearance of the Mahdi in Muharram?
Al-Ajlouni mentioned in "Kashf al-Khafa" that the hadiths which speak of the appearance of the signs of the Hour in specific months, such as "There will be a 'hada' (rumble/commotion) in Ramadan and a 'hamhama' (murmur/humming) in Shawwal," are false and nothing from them has been authenticated.
