أخبرنا أبو العباس محمد بن أحمد المحبوبي، ثنا سعيد بن مسعود، ثنا يزيد بن هارون، أنبأ كهمس بن الحسن، عن عبد الله بن شقيق العقيلي، عن محجن بن الأدرع، قال: بعثني رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لحاجة، ثم عارضني في بعض طرق المدينة، ثم صعد على أحد وصعدت معه، فأقبل بوجهه نحو المدينة، فقال لها قولا، ثم قال: «ويل أمك - أو ويح أمها - قرية يدعها أهلها أينع ما يكون، يأكلها عافية الطير والسباع، يأكل ثمرها ولا يدخلها الدجال إن شاء الله، كلما أراد دخولها تلقاه بكل نقب من نقابها ملك مصلت يمنعه عنها» هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد، ولم يخرجاه "

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #8315 in al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim).

[Isnad Grading & Assessment]: Scholar verdicts : al-Hakim: هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد، ولم يخرجاه | al-Dhahabi (Talkhis): صحيح.

[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]: Madinah has a special place at the end of time: the Dajjal cannot enter it, and it expels its impurity as a furnace removes the dross from iron.

[Described Characteristics]: Angels guard every entrance. When the Dajjal camps outside, Madinah shakes three times and every hypocrite inside goes out to him. Faith retreats to Madinah as a snake retreats to its hole. Near the end, Madinah will be left empty, visited only by wild animals and birds.

[Timeline & Context]: Its protection is shown in the Dajjal's time; its emptying comes near the very end.

[Prophetic Practice]: 'Whoever can die in Madinah, let him do so, for I will intercede for whoever dies there.'

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Madinah.
