حدثنا إسماعيل، حدثنا أيوب، عن حميد بن هلال، عن أبي قتادة ، عن يسير بن جابر، قال: هاجت ريح حمراء بالكوفة، فجاء رجل ليس له هجيرى إلا: يا عبد الله بن مسعود، جاءت الساعة قال: وكان متكئا فجلس، فقال: إن الساعة لا تقوم حتى لا يقسم ميراث، ولا يفرح بغنيمة، قال: عدوا يجمعون لأهل الإسلام، ويجمع لهم أهل الإسلام، فذكر الحديث، قال: جاءهم الصريخ: أن الدجال قد خلف في ذراريهم، فيرفضون ما في أيديهم ويقبلون، فيبعثون عشرة فوارس طليعة، قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " إني لأعرف أسماءهم وأسماء آبائهم، وألوان خيولهم، هم خير فوارس على ظهر الأرض يومئذ " أو قال : " هم من خير فوارس على ظهر الأرض يومئذ "

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #3643 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 : Kufa.
