What is mentioned in the hadith of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah have mercy on him), which was narrated by Na‘eem ibn Hammaad, about '''the conquest of India has not happened up till now''', but it will happen when ‘Eesaa ibn Maryam (peace be upon him) descends, if the hadith that says that is saheeh.

====Conquest of Jerusalem====
{{Quote|{{Bukhari|4|53|401}}|
Narrated `Auf bin Mali:
I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) during the Ghazwa of Tabuk while he was sitting in a leather tent. He said, "Count six signs that indicate the approach of the Hour: my death, '''the conquest of Jerusalem''', a plague that will afflict you (and kill you in great numbers) as the plague that afflicts sheep, the increase of wealth to such an extent that even if one is given one hundred Dinars, he will not be satisfied; then an affliction which no Arab house will escape, and then a truce between you and Bani Al-Asfar (i.e. the Byzantines) who will betray you and attack you under eighty flags. Under each flag will be twelve thousand soldiers.

Some apologists like to claim that Muhammad predicted "The Muslim conquest of Jerusalem in 1187 AD." <ref>https://www.islamweb.net/en/article/135817/the-signs-of-the-hour</ref>:
* [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Jerusalem_(1187) Wikipedia: Siege of Jerusalem (1187)]
But that was the second Muslim conquest. First Muslim conquest of Jerusalem was in 636:
* [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Jerusalem_(636%E2%80%93637) Wikipedia: Siege of Jerusalem (636–637)]
There is nothing in the hadith indicating that we should ignore the first one and count the second one. It rather seems that after the first conquest, the Hour is expected to come. But it didn't come, so this is another failed prophecy. And even after the second conquest, the Hour didn't come.
And the prophecy of the 7th century conquest was written by Bukhari two hundred years after the conquest.
====Conquest of Egypt====
{{Quote|{{Muslim|31|5174}}|
Abu Dharr reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:
'''You would soon conquer Egypt''' and that is a land which is known (as the land of al-qirat). So when you conquer it, treat its inhabitants well. For there lies upon you the responsibility because of blood-tie or relationship of marriage (with them). And when you see two persons falling into dispute amongst themselves for the space of a brick, than get out of that. He (Abu Dharr) said: I saw Abd al-Rahman b. Shurahbil b. Hasana and his brother Rabi'a disputing with one another for the space of a brick. So I left that (land).

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_conquest_of_Egypt Muslim conquest of Egypt] happened in the 7th century. The hadith collection Sahih Muslim was written in the 9th century.
====Fighting Turks====
{{Quote|{{Bukhari|4|56|787}}|
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The Hour will not be established till you fight a nation wearing hairy shoes, and till you '''fight the Turks''', who will have small eyes, red faces and flat noses; and their faces will be like flat shields. And you will find that the best people are those who hate responsibility of ruling most of all till they are chosen to be the rulers. And the people are of different natures: The best in the pre-lslamic period are the best in Islam. A time will come when any of you will love to see me rather than to have his family and property doubled."

Some Islamic scholars claim that "Turks" means "Mongols" and Muhammad predicted Gengish Khan. But why couldn't it be for example The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Kharistan Battle of Kharistan] (737) which happened between the Umayyad caliphate and Turkic Türgesh?
Since Muhammad declared war against everyone around him who didn't believe in his religion (Egypt, Persians, Turks, Jerusalem, India...) it was easy to "predict" that Muslims would fight all those people.
