أخبرنا الحسين بن الحسن بن أيوب، ثنا حاتم الرازي، ثنا إبراهيم بن يوسف، ثنا خلف بن خليفة، عن حميد الأعرج، عن عبد الله بن الحارث، عن عبد الله بن مسعود، رضي الله عنه، قال: كان من دعاء رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «اللهم إني أعوذ بك من علم لا ينفع، وقلب لا يخشع، ودعاء لا يسمع، ونفس لا تشبع، ومن الجوع، فإنه بئس الضجيع، ومن الخيانة فإنها بئست البطانة، ومن الكسل، والبخل والجبن، ومن الهرم، ومن أن أرد إلى أرذل العمر، ومن فتنة الدجال، وعذاب القبر، وفتنة المحيا والممات، اللهم إنا نسألك قلوبا أواهة مخبتة منيبة في سبيلك، اللهم إنا نسألك عزائم مغفرتك، ومنجيات أمرك، والسلامة من كل إثم، والغنيمة من كل بر، والفوز بالجنة، والنجاة من النار» وكان إذا سجد قال: «اللهم سجد لك سوادي وخيالي، وبك آمن فؤادي، أبوء بنعمتك علي، وهذا ما جنيت على نفسي، يا عظيم، يا عظيم، اغفر لي فإنه لا يغفر الذنوب العظيمة إلا الرب العظيم» هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد إلا أن الشيخين لم يخرجا عن حميد الأعرج الكوفي إنما اتفقا على إخراج حديث حميد بن قيس الأعرج المكي فأما أول الحديث في الاستعاذة من الأربع: فقد روي، عن أبي هريرة، وعبد الله بن عمرو "

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #1957 in al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim).

[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]: Death is the first stage of the hereafter. Between death and resurrection every soul is in al-barzakh, 'the barrier', and the grave is either a garden of Paradise or a pit of the Fire.

[Described Characteristics]: In the grave two angels ask three questions: Who is your Lord? What is your religion? Who is this man who was sent among you? The believer answers and his grave is widened and lit, and he is shown his place in Paradise. The one who doubted says 'I don't know, I heard people saying something so I said it', and is punished.

[Timeline & Context]: It begins for each person at their own death and lasts until the Trumpet.

[Prophetic Practice]: Seek refuge from the punishment of the grave in every prayer, and remember death often: 'the destroyer of pleasures'.

[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.'
