أخبرنا أبو عبد الله محمد بن عبد الله الصفار، ثنا محمد بن مسلمة الواسطي، ثنا يزيد بن هارون، أنبأ العوام بن حوشب، عن جبلة بن سحيم، عن مؤثر بن عفازة، عن عبد الله بن مسعود رضي الله عنه، قال: " لما كان ليلة أسري برسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لقي إبراهيم وموسى وعيسى عليهم الصلاة والسلام، فبدأوا بإبراهيم فسألوه عن الساعة، فلم يكن عنده منها علم، فسألوا موسى فلم يكن عنده منها علم، فردوا الحديث إلى عيسى، فقال: عهد الله إلي فيما دون وجبتها، فأما وجبتها فلا يعلمها إلا الله عز وجل فذكر من خروج الدجال، فأهبط فأقتله فيرجع الناس إلى بلادهم، فيستقبلهم يأجوج ومأجوج وهم من كل حدب ينسلون، لا يمرون بماء إلا شربوه، ولا بشيء إلا أفسدوه، فيجأرون إلي فأدعوا الله فيرسل السماء بالماء فيحملهم فيقذف أجسامهم في البحر، ثم تنسف الجبال وتمد الأرض مد الأديم، وعهد الله إلي أنه إذا كان الساعة من الناس كالحامل المتم لا يدري أهلها متى تفجأهم بولادتها أليلا أم نهارا " قال العوام: " فوجدت تصديق ذلك في كتاب الله عز وجل ثم قرأ: {حتى إذا فتحت يأجوج ومأجوج وهم من كل حدب ينسلون واقترب الوعد الحق} [الأنبياء: 97] "

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #8638 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]: Ya'juj and Ma'juj (Gog and Magog) are two huge peoples, descendants of Adam, held back behind a barrier of iron and copper that Dhul-Qarnayn built. Near the end the barrier gives way and they pour out across the earth.

[Described Characteristics]: They come down from every height. Their first ranks drink Lake Tiberias dry, and the last say 'there was water here once'. No one can fight them, so Allah tells Isa (AS) to take the believers up Mount Tur. Isa and his companions pray, Allah sends worms into their necks, and they all die in one night. Birds carry the bodies away and a rain washes the earth clean.

[Timeline & Context]: They come out after the Dajjal is killed, in the time of Isa (AS). It is one of the ten great signs.

[Prophetic Practice]: When Zaynab asked, 'Will we be destroyed while there are righteous among us?', he said, 'Yes, if filth increases.' Guarding against open evil is our part.
