حدثنا إسماعيل، حدثنا ابن عون، عن مجاهد، قال: كان جنادة بن أبي أمية أميرا علينا في البحر ست سنين، فخطبنا ذات يوم، فقال: دخلنا على رجل من أصحاب النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وقلنا له: حدثنا بما سمعت من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، ولا تحدثنا بما سمعت من الناس قالوا: قال: فشددوا عليه فقال: قام فينا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: " أنذركم المسيح الدجال، أنذركم المسيح الدجال، وهو رجل ممسوح العين، قال ابن عون: أظنه قال: اليسرى، يمكث في الأرض أربعين صباحا، معه جبال خبز وأنهار ماء، يبلغ سلطانه كل منهل، لا يأتي أربعة مساجد " فذكر المسجد الحرام، والمسجد الأقصى، والطور، والمدينة " غير أن ما كان من ذلك، فاعلموا أن الله ليس بأعور، ليس الله بأعور، ليس الله بأعور " قال ابن عون: وأظن في حديثه: " يسلط على رجل من البشر فيقتله ثم يحييه، ولا يسلط على غيره "

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #23683 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, Mount Tur (Sinai).
