Translation

Muslim ibn Ibrahim narrated to us: Wuhaib narrated to us: Ibn Tawus narrated to us, from his father, from Abu Hurayra (may Allah be pleased with him), from the Prophet ﷺ, who said: ‘Allah has opened an opening this size in the barrier of Gog and Magog.’ He made a circle with his hand to indicate ninety.
