حدثنا عثمان بن عمر، حدثنا أسامة يعني ابن زيد، حدثنا أبو عبد الله القراظ، أنه سمع سعد بن مالك، وأبا هريرة يقولان: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " اللهم بارك لأهل المدينة في مدينتهم، وبارك لهم في صاعهم، وبارك لهم في مدهم، اللهم إن إبراهيم عبدك وخليلك، وإني عبدك ورسولك، وإن إبراهيم سألك لأهل مكة، وإني أسألك لأهل المدينة كما سألك إبراهيم لأهل مكة ومثله معه، إن المدينة مشبكة بالملائكة، على كل نقب منها ملكان يحرسانها، لا يدخلها الطاعون ولا الدجال، من أرادها بسوء أذابه الله كما يذوب الملح في الماء "

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #1593 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.

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Madinah, Makkah.
