حدثنا أبو نعيم، حدثنا زكريا، عن عطية، عن أبي سعيد الخدري قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " من مات لا يشرك بالله شيئا دخل الجنة " ° 11752 - قال عبد الله: وجدت هذا الحديث في كتاب أبي بخط يده: حدثنا عبد المتعال بن عبد الوهاب، حدثنا يحيى بن سعيد الأموي، حدثنا مجالد، عن أبي الوداك، قال: قال لي أبو سعيد: هل يقر الخوارج بالدجال؟ فقلت: لا. فقال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " إني خاتم ألف نبي، وأكثر ما بعث نبي يتبع، إلا قد حذر أمته الدجال، وإني قد بين لي من أمره ما لم يبين لأحد، وإنه أعور وإن ربكم ليس بأعور، وعينه اليمنى عوراء جاحظة، ولا تخفى كأنها نخامة في حائط مجصص، وعينه اليسرى كأنها كوكب دري، معه من كل لسان، ومعه صورة الجنة خضراء، يجري فيها الماء، وصورة النار سوداء تداخن "

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #11751 in Musnad Ahmad.

[Core Subject]: The Dajjal (al-Masih al-Dajjal, the false messiah) is a single man who will appear near the end and claim to be God. Every prophet warned his people about him, and the Prophet ﷺ called his trial the greatest from the creation of Adam until the Hour.

[Described Characteristics]: He is a young man, stocky, with thick curly hair, blind in his right eye, which looks like a floating grape. Between his eyes is written ka-fa-ra (kafir), which every believer can read, literate or not. He brings what looks like paradise and hell, but his paradise is fire and his fire is cool water. He orders the sky to rain and it rains. He stays forty days: one like a year, one like a month, one like a week, the rest like ordinary days. He cannot enter Makkah or Madinah.

[Timeline & Context]: In the narrated order he is the first of the great signs. He comes after the great battle with the Romans and the conquest of Constantinople, and Isa (AS) kills him at the gate of Lud.

[Prophetic Practice]: Memorise the first ten verses of Surah al-Kahf, read al-Kahf on Fridays, and in every prayer before the salam ask Allah's refuge from the trial of the Dajjal. Whoever hears of him should keep away from him.

[Core Subject]: The Prophet ﷺ foretold a group who would recite the Quran but it would not go past their throats, and who would leave the religion as an arrow leaves its target. They appeared as the Khawarij.

[Described Characteristics]: Their prayer and fasting would make the Companions' look small, yet they would kill the people of Islam and leave the idol-worshippers alone. Among them would be a man with a deformed arm like a woman's breast.

[Timeline & Context]: They broke away from Ali (RA) after Siffin in 37 AH. Ali fought them at Nahrawan in 38 AH, and the man with the deformed arm was found among the dead, as described.

[Prophetic Practice]: Worship without understanding and mercy can go badly wrong. Be slow to judge other Muslims.

[Core Subject]: Jannah, Paradise, is the eternal home of the believers: 'what no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no heart has imagined'.

[Described Characteristics]: Gardens with rivers of water, milk, honey and pure drink; a hundred levels, the highest al-Firdaws under the Throne. No illness, no ageing, no sorrow, no death. Its greatest joy is seeing Allah, and His saying: 'I am pleased with you and will never be displeased with you after this.'

[Timeline & Context]: After the Bridge, the believers enter it forever. Paradise already exists now.

[Prophetic Practice]: 'When you ask Allah, ask for al-Firdaws.'
