Mother of the believers, Hazrat Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that she said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me while I was crying. He asked, "What is making you cry?" I replied, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), it is because of the mention of Dajjal." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Do not cry. If he appears while I am alive, I will suffice for you, and if I pass away, then surely your Lord is not one-eyed. Surely, the Jews of Isfahan will emerge with him. He will travel until he reaches the outskirts of Madinah, and at that time Madinah will have seven gates, at each gate there will be two angels. The wicked people of Madinah will go out towards him. He will travel until he reaches the place of Ludd. Hazrat Isa ibn Maryam will descend and kill him. Then Hazrat Isa will remain on the earth for forty years, or the narrator says, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said, for a period close to forty years, as a just Imam and a fair judge."

Hazrat Ibn Hawalah Azdi narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: Whoever is saved from three things is indeed saved. He said this three times. The companions asked, "What are these things, O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)?" He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: My death, the Dajjal, and the killing of a caliph who is steadfast upon the truth and gives the truth.

It is narrated from Abu Ubaidah that he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: After Prophet Noah, every prophet warned his people about the Dajjal. And indeed, I am warning you about him. (The narrator says) The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) described him to us and said: Soon, he will be encountered by the one who has seen me, or he said: the one who has heard my words. The companions asked: How will our hearts be at that time? Will they be like they are today? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: They will be better than today.

It is narrated from Hazrat Muadh bin Jabal that he said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The flourishing of Bayt al-Maqdis is the ruin of Yathrib, and the ruin of Yathrib is the appearance of the great battle (which will be with the Romans), and the appearance of the great battle is the conquest of Constantinople, and the conquest of Constantinople is the emergence of Dajjal. Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, struck his hand on the thigh of that man or said, on both his shoulders, and then said: This is true, just as you are here, or he said: just as you are sitting here—the reference was to Hazrat Muadh himself.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Nazrah that he said: On Friday, we came to Hazrat Usman bin Abu al-As so that we could compare our (written) scroll with his scroll. Then Hazrat Usman bin Abu al-As arrived, and we gathered around him. Hazrat Usman said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: The Muslims will have three cities. One city will be at the confluence of two seas, one city will be on an island, and one city will be in Syria (Sham). Then the people will be alarmed three times. Then Dajjal will emerge among the military armies and will be defeated towards the east. The first city he will go to will be the city at the confluence of two seas. Its inhabitants will be divided into three groups: one group will stay there and say, "We will go near him and see what he is," one group will join the villagers, and one group will go to the neighboring city. With him (i.e., Dajjal) will be seventy thousand people wearing green sheets. Most of his followers will be Jews and women. Then he will come to the neighboring city. Its inhabitants will be divided into three groups: one group will stay there and say, "We will go near him and see what he is," one group will join the villagers, and the third group will go to their neighboring city. Then he will go to Syria. The Muslims will gather at the place of Aqabah Afiq. They will send their cattle, and their cattle will suffer harm. This will be hard on them, and they will experience severe hunger and hardship, to the extent that one of them will burn the string of his bow and eat it. While they are in this state, at dawn a caller will call out, "O people, your help has arrived!" He will call out three times. They will say to each other, "Surely this is the voice of a satisfied man." Isa (peace be upon him) will descend at the time of Fajr prayer, and the leader of the people will say to him, "O Spirit of Allah! Come forward and lead us in prayer." Isa will say, "You are the leaders of this Ummah over one another. You go forward and lead us in prayer." The leader will go forward and lead them in prayer. When they finish the prayer, Isa will take his spear and go towards Dajjal. When Dajjal sees him, he will melt as lead melts. Isa will place his spear between his chest and kill him. Then his companions will be defeated.

It is narrated from Hazrat Safeena that he said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, delivered a sermon to us and said: Indeed, there has not passed any prophet except that he warned his nation about the Dajjal. He is blind in the left eye, and in his right eye there will be a thick piece of skin. Between his two eyes will be written "Kafir" (disbeliever). He will have with him two valleys, one of which will be Paradise and the other Fire. His Paradise is Fire and his Fire is Paradise. And with him will be two angels from among the angels, who will resemble two prophets from among the prophets. One of them will be on his right side and the other on his left side. He will say to the people: "Am I not your Lord? Do I not give life and cause death?" One of the two angels will say: "You have lied." But none of the people will hear his words except his companion (the other angel), who will say to his companion (the angel): "You have spoken the truth." The people will hear his words and think that he has affirmed the Dajjal, and this will be a trial. Then he will go on until he comes to Madinah Munawwarah, but he will not be allowed to enter it. He will say: "This is the town of that man." He will go on until he reaches Shaam, and then Allah Almighty will destroy him near the pass of 'Afiq.

It is narrated from Hazrat Asir bin Jabir that he said: In Kufa, a red wind blew. A man came whose habit was nothing except that he would say, "O Abdullah bin Mas'ud, the Day of Judgment has come." The narrator says that Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud was reclining, so he sat up and said: "Indeed, the Day of Judgment will not be established until inheritance is not distributed and there is no joy over receiving spoils of war." And he said: "There will be enemies who will gather against the people of Islam, and the people of Islam will prepare to confront them." And he gestured with his hand towards Syria. (The narrator says) I said, "Do you mean the Romans?" He said, "Yes." The battle will be at its peak at that time. The Muslims will make a pact of death that they will not return except victorious. They will fight until night comes between them; both sides will stop, and neither will be victorious, and the pact will end. Then the Muslims will again make a pact of death that they will not return from the battle except victorious. They will fight until evening; both sides will stop, and neither will be victorious, and the pact will end. Then, when the fourth day comes, the army of the Muslims will attack them. Then Allah Almighty will decree defeat upon them (the enemies of Islam). There will be such a fierce battle among them as has never been seen before, until a bird passes over them and does not go beyond them, but falls dead. Of a hundred sons of one father, only one man will return. Over what spoils will there be joy, and what inheritance will be distributed? While they are in this state, suddenly they will hear of an even greater battle. A crier will come to them and say that the Dajjal is present among their progeny. Whatever things are in their possession, they will leave them and turn their attention (to the Dajjal), and will send ten horsemen as scouts to gather information about the enemy. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, I know their names and the names of their fathers, and even the colors of their horses. They will be among the best horsemen on the face of the earth."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Bakrah that he said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The parents of the Dajjal will remain for thirty years without having any children, then a one-eyed son will be born to them who will be more harmful and less beneficial. His eyes will sleep but his heart will not sleep. Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, described the parents of the Dajjal and said: His father will be tall, thin, and have a long nose, as if his nose is like a beak, and his mother will have large breasts.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira that he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: Shall I not tell you a hadith about the Dajjal which no prophet has told his people? Surely, he is one-eyed, and surely with him will come something like Paradise and Hell. That which he will call Paradise will in fact be Fire. And I warn you against him as Noah warned his people.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Bakrah that he said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The awe and terror of the Messiah Dajjal will not enter Madinah Munawwarah. At that time, Madinah will have seven gates, and at each gate there will be two angels appointed.
