بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ
الرَّحِيمِ
[In the Name of ALLAH, the
ENTIRELY MERCIFUL, the ESPECIALLY MERCIFUL]
[Note-
[S.W.T] Subhaanahuu
Wa Ta'ala - [Glorified and Exalted is ALLAH]: This phrase appears after the
Name of ALLAH [S.W.T] its seen as an act of reverence and devotion towards
ALLAH [S.W.T].
[S.A.W.S] Salla'Allahuu
Alayhi Wa-Sallaam – [[May ALLAH Bless Him and grant Him Peace] [S.A.W.] or
[P.B.U.H.] or [S.]]: The expression should be used after stating Prophet
Muhammad [S.A.W.S]'s name.
(A.S) 'Alayhis-Salaam
- [[Peace be upon Him] (P.B.U.H), [Peace be upon Them] (P.B.U.T)]: This
expression should be used after stating the names of the noble Angels (e.g.
Jibraeel, Mikaeel and so on) or Prophets who came before Hadrat Muhammad
[S.A.W.S].
(R.A) Raadiya'Allahu
anhu - [May ALLAH be pleased with him]: When mentioning Sahaba [the
Companions (R.A)] of Hadrat Muhammad [S.A.W.S.], Raadiya'Allahu anhu (for
males/him) and Radiy'Allahu aanha (for females/her) Radiy'Allahu anhuuma (for
them) are used.]
Our beloved
Prophet [S.A.W.S] advised- those amongst you who would survive to see him
(dajjal/the anti Christ) should recite over him the opening verses of Surat Al-Kahf (The Cave) - سورة
الكهف
[Sahih
Muslim: Chapter 18, Book 41: Pertaining To Turmoil And Portents Of The Last
Hour (Kitab Al-Fitan Wa Ashrat As-Sa'Ah), Number 7015]
Opening/First Ten Verses/Aya’t of [Surat Al-Kahf (The Cave) - سورة الكهف]
18:1

Alhamdu lillahi
allatheeanzala AAala AAabdihi alkitaba walam yajAAal lahuAAiwaja
Translation
[All] praise is
[due] to ALLAH, WHO has sent down upon HIS Servant the Book and has not made
therein any deviance.
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Praise — which
is the attribution [to a person] of that which is beautiful — is established
[as something that], belongs to ALLAH [Alone], Exalted be HE. Now, is the
intention here to point this out for the purpose of believing in it, or to Praise
[ALLAH] thereby, or both? All are possibilities, the most profitable of which
is [to understand] the third [as being the intention behind this statement];
WHO has revealed to HIS servant, Muhammad [S.A.W.S], the Book, the Qur'an, and
has not allowed for it, that is, [HE has not allowed that there be] in it, any
crookedness, [any] variance or contradiction (the [last] sentence [wa-lam
yaj‘al lahu ‘iwajan] is a circumstantial qualifier referring to al-kitāb, ‘the
Book’);
قَيِّمًا
لِّيُنذِرَ بَأْسًا شَدِيدًا مِّن لَّدُنْهُ وَيُبَشِّرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ الَّذِينَ

upright, (qayyiman is a second circumstantial qualifier for [added] emphasis)
to warn of, to make, by this Book, the disbelievers fear, severe chastisement
from HIM, from ALLAH [S.W.T], and to bring to the believers who perform
righteous deeds the good tidings that theirs will be a fair reward,

Translation
They have no
knowledge of it, nor had their fathers. Grave is the word that comes out of
their mouths; they speak not except a lie.
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
They do not
have, in this, in this saying, any knowledge, nor did their fathers, before
them, who [also] used to say this. Dreadful, grave, is the word that comes out
of their mouths (kalimatan, ‘word’, is for specification and it explains the
unidentified [feminine] person [of the verb, kaburat, ‘dreadful’]; and that
which is the object of censure has been omitted, and that is their
above-mentioned saying [that ALLAH has taken a son]). They speak nothing,
thereby, but, an utterance of, lies.

Then perhaps you

believe in this message, [and] out of sorrow.
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Yet it may be

with] them, that is, after they have left you — if they should not believe in
this discourse, [in this] Qur'an, out of grief, out of rage and anguish on your
part, because of your eagerness that they believe (asafan, ‘out of grief’, is
in the accusative because it functions as an object denoting reason).
إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا

made all that is on the earth, in the way of animals, plants, trees, rivers and
so on, as an adornment for it, that WE may try them, that WE may test mankind
observing thereby, which of them is best in conduct, therein, that is, [to see
which of them] is the most abstemious of it.

Or have you
thought that the companions of the cave and the inscription were, among OUR
signs, a wonder?
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Or did you
think, did you suppose, that the Companions of the Cave, the cavern in the
mountain, and the Inscription, the tablet wherein their names and lineages had
been inscribed — the Prophet [S.A.W.S] had been asked about their tale — were,
with regard to their tale, a [unique] marvel from among, the entirety [of], OUR
signs? (‘ajaban, ‘a marvel’ is the predicate of [the defective verb] kāna [sc.
kānū], the preceding [min āyātinā, ‘from among OUR signs’] being a
circumstantial qualifier). In other words, [did you suppose] that they were a
marvel exclusively from among all [OUR] other signs, or that they were the most
marvelous among them? Not so.

YOURSELF mercy and prepare for us from our affair right guidance."
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Mention, when
the youths took refuge in the Cave (fitya, ‘youths’, is the plural of fatā, and
denotes a mature young man) fearing for their faith from their disbelieving
people, they said, ‘Our LORD! Give us mercy from YOURSELF and remedy for us our
affair through rectitude’, [through YOUR] guidance.
Ending/Last Ten Verses/Aya’t [Surat Al-Kahf (The Cave) - سورة الكهف]

Allatheena kanat aAAyunuhumfee
ghita-in AAan thikree wakanoo layastateeAAoona samAAa
Translation
Those
whose eyes had been within a cover [removed] from MY remembrance, and they were
not able to hear.
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Those
[disbelievers] whose eyes (alladhīna kānat a‘yunuhum substitutes for
al-kāfirīna, ‘the disbelievers’) were masked from MY remembrance, namely, the Qur'an,
such that they were blind, unable to be guided thereby, and who could not [bear
to] hear, that is to say, they were unable to listen to what the Prophet [S.A.W.S]
used to recite to them, out of spite for him, and so they did not believe
therein.
أَفَحَسِبَ
الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَن يَتَّخِذُوا عِبَادِي مِن دُونِي أَوْلِيَاءَ ۚ إِنَّا أَعْتَدْنَا جَهَنَّمَ لِلْكَافِرِينَ نُزُلًا

lilkafireena nuzula
Translation
Then do those
who disbelieve think that they can take MY servants instead of ME as allies?
Indeed, WE have prepared Hell for the disbelievers as a lodging.
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Do the
disbelievers reckon that they can take MY servants, namely, MY angels, [as well
as] Jesus and Ezra (P.B.U.T), as patrons, as lords, beside ME? (awliyā’a, ‘as
patrons’, constitutes the second [direct] object of [the verb] yattakhidhū,
‘that they can take’; the second direct object of [the verb] hasiba, ‘reckon’,
has been omitted). The meaning is: do they suppose that the mentioned ‘taking
[as patrons]’ will not incur MY wrath and that I will not punish them for this?
No! Truly WE have prepared Hell for the disbelievers, these [the ones mentioned
above] and others, as [a place of] hospitality, in other words, it has been
prepared for them just as a house is prepared for a guest.

being]:

Those whose
effort goes astray in the life of this world, [those] whose deeds are invalid,
while they reckon, they think, that they are doing good work, [good] deeds for
which they will be rewarded.

their deeds have become worthless; and WE will not assign to them on the Day of
Resurrection any importance.
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Those are they
who disbelieve in the signs of their LORD, in the proofs of HIS Oneness,
[proofs] such as the Qur'an and otherwise, and the encounter with HIM’, that
is, and [who disbelieve] in resurrection, reckoning, reward and punishment. So
their works have failed, they are invalid, and on the Day of Resurrection WE
shall not assign any weight to them, in other words, WE shall not accord them
any value.

Translation
That is their
recompense - Hell - for what they denied and [because] they took MY signs and
MY Messengers in ridicule.
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
That, namely,
the matter which I [God] have mentioned concerning the failure of their deeds
and so on (dhālika, ‘that’, constitutes the subject) is their requital — Hell —
because they disbelieved and took MY signs and MY Messengers (P.B.U.T) in
mockery, that is to say, [taking] both of them as something to be derided.

[S.W.T]’s prescience, the gardens of Firdaws, which are at the centre of
Paradise and [at] its highest part (the annexation thereto [of firdaws to
jannāt, ‘gardens’] is explicative) as [a place of] hospitality, as an abode;

them, before the Words of my LORD were spent (read as tanfada or yanfada) even
though WE brought the like of it, namely, [the like of] the sea, as
replenishment’, in order to add it to the other [sea], it would [also] be
spent, while they [ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Words] would not be exhausted (madadan, ‘as
replenishment’, in the accusative because it is a specification).

of the Divine is [what is being] revealed to me. So whoever hopes to encounter
his LORD, through the Resurrection and the Requital, let him do righteous work
and not associate with the Worship of his LORD, that is to say, [let him not
commit idolatry] in [performing] it by feigning [faith] before, anyone’.

Abu Talib (R.A):
The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said: If only one day of
this time (world) remained, ALLAH [S.W.T] would raise up a man from my family
who would fill this earth with justice as it has been filled with oppression.
Sunan Abi
Dawud: Chapter 1, Book 38: The Promised Deliverer (Kitab Al-Mahdi), Hadith 7:
Narrated Abu
Sa'id al-Khudri (R.A):
The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said: The Mahdi (R.A)
will be of my stock, and will have a broad forehead a prominent nose. He will
fill the earth with equity and justice as it was filled with oppression and
tyranny, and he will rule for seven years.

amongst you and there will be an Imam amongst you?
Sahih Muslim:
Chapter 72, Book 1: Faith (Kitab Al Iman), Number 0293:
Jabir b.
'Abdullah reported:
I heard the Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T]
[S.A.W.S] say: A section of my people will not cease fighting for the Truth and
will prevail till the Day of Resurrection. He said: Jesus son of Mary would
then descend and their (Muslims') commander would invite him to come and lead
them in prayer, but he would say: No, some amongst you are commanders over some
(amongst you). This is the honour from ALLAH [S.W.T] for this Ummah.

Friday evening, the day on which al-Aslami was stoned to death (for committing
adultery): The Islamic religion will continue until the Hour has been
established, or you have been ruled over by twelve Caliphs, all of them being
from the Quraish. Also heard him say: A small force of the Muslims will capture
the white palace, the police of the Persian Emperor or his descendants. I also
heard him say: Before the Day of Judgment there will appear (a number of)
impostors. You are to guard against them. I also heard him say: When ALLAH
[S.W.T] grants wealth to any one of you, he should first spend it on himself
and his family (and then give it in charity to the poor). I heard him (also)
say: I will be your forerunner at the Cistern (expecting your arrival).

Al-Fitan Wa Ashrat As-Sa'Ah), Number 7015:
An-Nawwas b.
Sam'an (R.A) reported:
That ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] made
a mention of the dajjal one day in the morning. He sometimes described him to
be insignificant and sometimes described (his turmoil) as very significant and
we felt) as if he were in the cluster of the date-palm trees. When we went to
him (to the Holy Prophet [S.A.W.S]) in the evening and he read (the signs of
fear) in our faces, he said: What is the matter with you? We said: ALLAH
[S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S], you made a mention of the dajjal in the morning
(sometimes describing him) to be insignificant and sometimes very important,
until we began to think as if he were present in some (near) part of the
cluster of the date-palm trees. Thereupon he said: I harbor fear in regard to
you in so many other things besides the dajjal. If he comes forth while I am
among on, I shall contend with him on your behalf, but if he comes forth while
I am not amongst you, a man must contend on his own behalf and ALLAH [S.W.T]
would take care of every Muslim on my behalf (and safeguard him against his
evil). He (dajjal) would be a young man with twisted, contracted hair, and a
blind eye. I compare him to 'Abd-ul-'Uzza b. Qatan. He who amongst you would
survive to see him should recite over him the opening verses of Sura Kahf
(18.). He would appear on the way between Syria and Iraq and would spread
mischief right and left. O servants of ALLAH [S.W.T]! Adhere (to the path of
Truth). We said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S], how long would he stay on
the earth? He said: For forty days, one day like a year and one day like a
month and one day like a week and the rest of the days would be like your days.
We said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S], would one day's prayer suffice
for the prayers of day equal to one year? Thereupon he said: No, but you must
make an estimate of time (and then observe prayer). We said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S], how quickly would he walk upon the earth? Thereupon he
said: Like cloud driven by the wind. He would come to the people and invite
them (to a wrong religion) and they would affirm their faith in him and respond
to him. He would then give command to the sky and there would be rainfall upon
the earth and it would grow crops. Then in the evening, their posturing animals
would come to them with their humps very high and their udders full of milk and
their flanks stretched. He would then come to another people and invite them.
But they would reject him and he would go away from them and there would be
drought for them and nothing would be left with them in the form of wealth. He
would then walk through the waste, land and say to it: Bring forth your
treasures, and the treasures would come out and collect (themselves) before him
like the swarm of bees. He would then call a person brimming with youth and
strike him with the sword and cut him into two pieces and (make these pieces
lie at a distance which is generally) between the archer and his target. He
would then call (that young man) and he will come forward laughing with his
face gleaming (with happiness) and it would at this very time that ALLAH
[S.W.T] would send Jesus Christ, son of Mary (P.B.U.T), and he will descend at
the white minaret in the eastern side of Damascus wearing two garments lightly
dyed with saffron and placing his hands on the wings of two Angels (P.B.U.T).
When he would lower his head, there would fall beads of perspiration from his
head, and when he would raise it up, beads like pearls would scatter from it.
Every non-believer who would smell the odor of his self would die and his
breath would reach as far as he would be able to see. He would then search for
him (dajjal) until he would catch hold of him at the gate of Ludd and would
kill him. Then a people whom ALLAH [S.W.T] had protected would come to Jesus,
son of Mary (P.B.U.T), and he would wipe their faces and would inform them of
their ranks in Paradise and it would be under such conditions that ALLAH
[S.W.T] would reveal to Jesus (P.B.U.H) these words: I have brought forth from
amongst MY servants such people against whom none would be able to fight; you
take these people safely to Tur, and then ALLAH [S.W.T] would send yajuj/gog
and Majuj/magog and they would swarm down from every slope. The first of them
would pass the lake of Tiberius and drink out of it. And when the last of them
would pass, he would say: There was once water there. Jesus (P.B.U.H) and his
companions (R.A) would then be besieged here (at Tur, and they would be so much
hard pressed) that the head of the ox would be dearer to them than one hundred
diners and ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle, Jesus (P.B.U.H), and his companions (R.A)
would supplicate ALLAH [S.W.T], WHO would send to them insects (which would
attack their necks) and in the morning they would perish like one single
person. ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle, Jesus (P.B.U.H), and his companions (R.A)
would then come down to the earth and they would not find in the earth as much
space as a single span which is not filled with their putrefaction and stench.
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle, Jesus (P.B.U.H), and his companions (R.A) would then
again beseech ALLAH [S.W.T], WHO would send birds whose necks would be like
those of Bactrian camels and they would carry them and throw them where ALLAH
[S.W.T] would Will. Then ALLAH [S.W.T] would send rain which no house of clay
or (the tent of) camels' hairs would keep out and it would wash away the earth
until it could appear to be a mirror. Then the earth would be told to bring
forth its fruit and restore its blessing and, as a result thereof, there would
grow (such a big) pomegranate that a group of persons would be able to eat
that, and seek shelter under its skin and milch cow would give so much milk
that a whole party would be able to drink it. And the milch camel would give
such (a large quantity of) milk that the whole tribe would be able to drink out
of that and the milch sheep would give so much milk that the whole family would
be able to drink out of that and at that time ALLAH [S.W.T] would send a
pleasant wind which would soothe (people) even under their armpits, and would
take the life of every Muslim and only the wicked would survive who would
commit adultery like asses and the Last Hour would come to them.
Sahih Muslim:
Chapter 21, Book 41: Pertaining To Turmoil And Portents Of The Last Hour (Kitab
Al-Fitan Wa Ashrat As-Sa'Ah), Number 7028:
Amir b. Sharahil
Sha'bi Sha'b Hamdan (R.A) reported:
That he asked Fatima (R.A), daughter of Qais
and sister of ad-Dahhak b. Qais and she was the first amongst the emigrant
women: Narrate to me a hadith which you had heard directly from ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S] and there is no extra link in between them. She said: Very
well, if you like, I am prepared to do that, and he said to her: Well, do it
and narrate that to me. She said: I married the son of Mughira (R.A) and he was
a chosen young man of Quraish at that time, but he fell as a martyr in the
first Jihad (fighting) on the side of ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S]. When
I became a widow, 'Abd al-Rahman b. Auf (R.A), one amongst the group of the
Companions (R.A) of ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S], sent me the proposal
of marriage. ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] also sent me such a message
for his freed slave Usama b. Zaid (R.A). And it had been conveyed to me that
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] had said (about Usama (R.A)): He who loves
me should also love Usama (R.A). When ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S]
talked to me (about this matter), I said: My affairs are in your hand. You may
marry me to anyone whom you like. He said: You better shift now to the house of
Umm Sharik (R.A), and Umm Sharik (R.A) was a rich lady from amongst the Anqir.
She spent generously for the Cause of ALLAH [S.W.T] and entertained guests very
hospitably. I said: Well, I will do as you like. He said: Do not do that for
Umm Sharik (R.A) is a woman who is very frequently vizited by guests and I do
not like that your head may be uncovered or the cloth may be removed from your
shank and the strangers may catch sight of them which you abhor. You better
shift to the house of your cousin 'Abdullah b. 'Amr b. Umm Maktum (R.A) and he
is a person of the Bani Fihr branch of the Quraish, and he belonged to that
tribe (to which Fatima (R.A)) belonged. So I shifted to that house, and when my
period of waiting was over, I heard the voice of an announcer making an
announcement that the prayer would be observed in the Mosque (where) congregational
prayer (is observed). So I set out towards that Mosque and observed prayer
along with ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] and I was in the row of the
women which was near the row of men. When ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S]
had finished his prayer, he sat on the pulpit smiling and said: Every worshiper
should keep sitting at his place. He then said: Do you know why I had asked you
to assemble? They said: ALLAH [S.W.T] and HIS Messenger [S.A.W.S] know best. He
said: By ALLAH [S.W.T]. I have not made you assemble for exhortation or for a
warning, but I have detained you here, for Tamim Dari (R.A), a Christian, who
came and accepted Islam, told me something, which agrees with what I
was-telling, you about the dajjal. He narrated to me that he had sailed in a
ship along with thirty men of Bani Lakhm and Bani Judham and had been tossed by
waves in the ocean for a month. Then these (waves) took them (near) the land
within the ocean (island) at the time of sunset. They sat in a small side-boat
and entered that Island. There was a beast with long thick hair (and because of
these) they could not distinguish his face from his back. They said: Woe to
you, who can you be? Thereupon it said: I am al-Jassasa. They said: What is
al-Jassasa? And it said: O people, go to this person in the monastery as he is
very much eager to know about you. He (the narrator) said: When it named a
person for us we were afraid of it lest it should be a devil. Then we hurriedly
went on till we came to that monastery and found a well-built person there with
his hands tied to his neck and having iron shackles between his two legs up to
the ankles. We said: Woe be upon thee, who are you? And he said: You would soon
come to know about me but tell me who are you? We said: We are people from Arabia and we embarked upon a boat but the sea-waves had
been driving us for one month and they brought as near this island. We got into
the side-boats and entered this island and here a beast met us with profusely
thick hair and because of the thickness of his hair his face could not be
distinguished from his back. We said: Woe be to thee, who are you? It said: I
am al- Jassasa. We said: What is al-Jassasa? And it said: You go to this very
person in the monastery for he is eagerly waiting for you to know about you. So
we came to you in hot haste fearing that might be the devil. He (that chained
person) said: Tell me about the date-palm trees of Baisan. We said: About what
aspect of theirs do you seek information? He said: I ask you whether these
trees bear fruit or not. We said: Yes. Thereupon he said: I think these would
not bear fruits. He said: Inform me about the lake of Tabariyya Medina Mecca and has settled
In Yathrib (Medina Yemen sea (Arabian sea ). Nay, on the contrary, he is in the east, he
is in the east, he is in the east, and he pointed with his hand towards the
east. I (Fatima bint Qais (R.A)) said: I
preserved it in my mind (this narration from ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S].

Narrated Asma
(R.A):
I came to 'Aisha (R.A) while she was praying,
and said to her, "What has happened to the people?" She pointed out
towards the sky. (I looked towards the Mosque), and saw the people offering the
prayer. Aisha (R.A) said, "Subhan ALLAH." I said to her, "Is
there a sign?" She nodded with her head meaning, "Yes." I, too,
then stood (for the prayer of eclipse) till I became (nearly) unconscious and
later on I poured water on my head. After the prayer, the Prophet [S.A.W.S]
Praised and Glorified ALLAH [S.W.T] and then said, "Just now at this place
I have seen what I have never seen before, including Paradise and Hell. No
doubt it has been inspired to me that you will be put to trials in your graves
and these trials will be like the trials of Masiah-ad-dajjal or nearly like it
(the sub narrator is not sure which expression Asma' (R.A) used). You will be
asked, 'What do you know about this man (the Prophet Muhammad [S.A.W.S.])?'
Then the faithful believer (or Asma' (R.A) said a similar word) will reply, 'He
is Muhammad [S.A.W.S] ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle who had come to us with clear
evidences and guidance and so we accepted his teachings and followed him. And
he is Muhammad [S.A.W.S].' And he will repeat it thrice. Then the Angels
(P.B.U.T) will say to him, 'Sleep in peace as we have come to know that you
were a faithful believer.' On the other hand, a hypocrite or a doubtful person
will reply, 'I do not know, but I heard the people saying something and so I
said it.' (the same)."

Huraira (R.A)! "I have thought that none will ask me about it before you
as I know your longing for the (learning of) Hadiths. The luckiest person who
will have my intercession on the Day of Resurrection will be the one who said
sincerely from the bottom of his heart "None has the right to be Worshiped
but ALLAH." And 'Umar bin 'Abdul 'Aziz (R.A.) wrote to Abu Bakr bin Hazm
(R.A), "Look for the knowledge of Hadith and get it written, as I am
afraid that religious knowledge will vanish and the religious learned men will
pass away (die). Do not accept anything save the Hadiths of the Prophet
[S.A.W.S]. Circulate knowledge and teach the ignorant, for knowledge does not
vanish except when it is kept secretly (to oneself)."

made me victorious by awe (by HIS frightening my enemies) for a distance of one
month's journey.
2. The earth has
been made for me (and for my followers) a place for praying and a thing to
perform Tayammum. Therefore my followers can pray wherever the time of a prayer
is due.
3. The booty has
been made Halal (lawful) for me (and was not made so for anyone else).
4. Every Prophet

mankind.
5. I have been
given the right of intercession (on the Day of Resurrection.)

Narrated 'Adi
bin Hatim (R.A):
While I was sitting with ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Apostle [S.A.W.S] two person came to him; one of them complained about his
poverty and the other complained about the prevalence of robberies. ALLAH
[S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] said, "As regards stealing and robberies,
there will shortly come a time when a caravan will go to Mecca (from Medina)
without any guard. And regarding poverty, The Hour (Day of Judgment) will not
be established till one of you wanders about with his object of charity and
will not find anybody to accept it. And (no doubt) each one of you will stand
in front of ALLAH [S.W.T] and there will be neither a curtain nor an
interpreter between him and ALLAH [S.W.T], and ALLAH [S.W.T] will ask him, 'Did
not I give you wealth?' He will reply in the affirmative. ALLAH [S.W.T] will
further ask, 'Didn't I send a Messenger to you?' And again that person will
reply in the affirmative. Then he will look to his right and he will see
nothing but Hell-fire, and then he will look to his left and will see nothing
but Hell-fire. And so, any (each one) of you should save himself from the fire
even by giving half of a date-fruit (in charity). And if you do not find a half
date-fruit, then (you can do it through saying) a good pleasant word (to your
brethren).

to him and say, 'I testify that you are the same dajjal whose description was
given to us by ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] .' Ad-dajjal will say to the
people, 'If I kill this man and bring him back to life again, will you doubt my

saying, "I warn you about him (i.e. Ad-dajjal) and there is no Prophet
(P.B.U.T) who did not warn his nation about him, and Noah (P.B.U.H) warned his

time children will become hoary headed, every pregnant female will have a
miscarriage, and one will see mankind as drunken, yet they will not be drunken,

testifies that None has the right to be Worshiped but ALLAH [S.W.T] Alone WHO
has no partners, and that Muhammad [S.A.W.S] is HIS Slave and HIS Apostle, and
that Jesus (P.B.U.H) is ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Slave and HIS Apostle and HIS Word
which HE bestowed on Mary and a Spirit created by HIM, and that Paradise is
true, and Hell is true, ALLAH [S.W.T] will admit him into Paradise with the
deeds which he had done even if those deeds were few." (Junada (R.A), the
sub-narrator said, " 'Ubada (R.A) added, 'Such a person can enter Paradise through any of its eight gates he likes.")

"As WE began the first creation, WE shall repeat it: A promise WE have undertaken.
Truly WE shall do it." (21.104) He added, "The first to be dressed
will be Abraham (P.B.U.H) . Then some of my companions will take to the right
and to the left. I will say: 'My companions! 'It will be said, 'They had been
renegades since you left them.' I will then say what the Pious Slave Jesus, the
son of Mary (P.B.U.T) said: 'And I was a witness over them while I dwelt
amongst them; when YOU did take me up, YOU were the Watcher over them, and YOU
are a Witness to all things. If YOU punish them, they are YOUR slaves, and if
YOU forgive them, YOU, Only YOU are the ALL-MIGHTY the ALL-WISE.'"

descend amongst you and will judge mankind justly (as a Just Ruler); he will
break the cross and kill the pigs and there will be no Jizya (i.e. taxation
taken from non Muslims). Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept
it, and a single prostration to ALLAH [S.W.T] (in prayer) will be better than
the whole world and whatever is in it." Abu Huraira (R.A) added "If
you wish, you can recite (this verse of the Holy Book): -- 'And there is none
of the people of the Scriptures (Jews and Christians) But must believe in him
(i.e Jesus (P.B.U.H) as an Apostle of ALLAH [S.W.T] and a human being) Before
his death. And on the Day of Judgment he will be a witness against them."

"Won't you relate to us of what you have heard from ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Apostle [S.A.W.S]?" He said, "I heard him saying, "When
Al-dajjal appears, he will have fire and water along with him. What the people
will consider as cold water, will be fire that will burn (things). So, if
anyone of you comes across this, he should fall in the thing which will appear
to him as fire, for in reality, it will be fresh cold water." Hudhaifa
(R.A) added, "I also heard him saying, 'From among the people preceding
your generation, there was a man whom the Angel of death (P.B.U.H) visited to
capture his soul. (So his soul was captured) and he was asked if he had done
any good deed.' He replied, 'I don't remember any good deed.' He was asked to
think it over. He said, 'I do not remember, except that I used to trade with
the people in the world and I used to give a respite to the rich and forgive
the poor (among my debtors). So ALLAH [S.W.T] made him enter Paradise."
Hudhaifa (R.A) further said, "I also heard him saying, 'Once there was a
man on his death-bed, who, losing every hope of surviving said to his family:
When I die, gather for me a large heap of wood and make a fire (to burn me). When
the fire eats my meat and reaches my bones, and when the bones burn, take and
crush them into powder and wait for a windy day to throw it (i.e. the powder)
over the sea. They did so, but ALLAH [S.W.T] collected his particles and asked
him: Why did you do so? He replied: For fear of YOU. So ALLAH [S.W.T] forgave
him." 'Uqba bin 'Amr (R.A) said, "I heard him saying that the Israeli
used to dig the grave of the dead (to steal their shrouds)."

ignorance and in evil and ALLAH [S.W.T] has bestowed upon us the present good;
will there by any evil after this good?" He said, "Yes." I
asked, "Will there be good after that evil?" He said, "Yes, but
it would be tained with Dakhan (i.e. little evil)." I asked, "What
will its Dakhan be?" He said, "There will be some people who will
lead (people) according to principles other than my tradition. You will see
their actions and disapprove of them." I said, "Will there by any
evil after that good?" He said, "Yes, there will be some people who
will invite others to the doors of Hell, and whoever accepts their invitation
to it will be thrown in it (by them)." I said, "O ALLAH [S.W.T]'s
Apostle [S.A.W.S]! Describe those people to us." He said, "They will
belong to us and speak our language" I asked, "What do you order me
to do if such a thing should take place in my life?" He said, "Adhere
to the group of Muslims and their Chief." I asked, "If there is
neither a group (of Muslims) nor a chief (what shall I do)?" He said,
"Keep away from all those different sects, even if you had to bite (i.e.
eat) the root of a tree, till you meet ALLAH [S.W.T] while you are still in

Narrated Ibn
Umar (R.A):
We were talking about Hajjat-ul-Wada, while
the Prophet [S.A.W.S] was amongst us. We did not know what Hajjat-ul-Wada'
signified. The Prophet [S.A.W.S] Praised ALLAH [S.W.T] and then mentioned
Al-masih Ad-dajjal and described him extensively, saying, "ALLAH [S.W.T]
did not send any Prophet (P.B.U.T) but that Prophet (P.B.U.T) warned his nation
of Al-masih Ad-dajjal. Noah (P.B.U.H) and the Prophets (P.B.U.T) following him
warned (their people) of him. He will appear amongst you (O Muhammad
[S.A.W.S]'s followers), and if it happens that some of his qualities may be
hidden from you, but your LORD's State is clear to you and not hidden from you.
The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said it thrice. Verily, your LORD is not blind in one
eye, while he (i.e. Ad-dajjal) is blind in the right eye which looks like a
grape bulging out (of its cluster). No doubt! ALLAH [S.W.T] has made your blood
and your properties sacred to one another like the sanctity of this day of
yours, in this town of yours, in this month of yours." The Prophet
[S.A.W.S] added: No doubt! Haven't I conveyed ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Message to
you?" They replied, "Yes," The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said thrice,
"O ALLAH [S.W.T]! Be witness for it." The Prophet [S.A.W.S] added,
"Woe to you!" (or said), "May ALLAH [S.W.T] be merciful to you!
Do not become infidels after me (i.e. my death) by cutting the necks (throats)

Said Al-Khudri (R.A):
During the lifetime of the Prophet [S.A.W.S]
some people said: O ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S]! Shall we see our LORD on
the Day of Resurrection?" The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "Yes; do you
have any difficulty in seeing the sun at midday when it is bright and there is
no cloud in the sky?" They replied, "No." He said, "Do you
have any difficulty in seeing the moon on a full moon night when it is bright
and there is no cloud in the sky?" They replied, "No." The
Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "(Similarly) you will have no difficulty in seeing
ALLAH [S.W.T] on the Day of Resurrection as you have no difficulty in seeing
either of them. On the Day of Resurrection, a call-maker will announce,
"Let every nation follow that which they used to Worship." Then none
of those who used to Worship anything other than ALLAH [S.W.T] like idols and
other deities but will fall in Hell (Fire), till there will remain none but
those who used to Worship ALLAH [S.W.T], both those who were obedient (i.e.
good) and those who were disobedient (i.e. bad) and the remaining party of the
people of the Scripture. Then the Jews will be called upon and it will be said
to them, 'Who do you use to Worship?' They will say, 'We used to Worship Ezra,
the son of ALLAH [S.W.T].' It will be said to them, 'You are liars, for ALLAH
[S.W.T] has never taken anyone as a wife or a son. What do you want now?' They
will say, 'O our LORD! We are thirsty, so give us something to drink.' They
will be directed and addressed thus, 'Will you drink,' whereupon they will be
gathered unto Hell (Fire) which will look like a mirage whose different sides
will be destroying each other. Then they will fall into the Fire. Afterwards
the Christians will be called upon and it will be said to them, 'Who do you use
to Worship?' They will say, 'We used to Worship Jesus (P.B.U.H), the son of
ALLAH [S.W.T].' It will be said to them, 'You are liars, for ALLAH [S.W.T] has
never taken anyone as a wife or a son,' Then it will be said to them, 'What do
you want?' They will say what the former people have said. Then, when there
remain (in the gathering) none but those who used to Worship ALLAH [S.W.T]
(Alone, the real LORD of the worlds) whether they were obedient or disobedient.
Then (ALLAH [S.W.T]) the LORD of the worlds will come to them in a shape
nearest to the picture they had in their minds about HIM. It will be said,
'What are you waiting for?' Every nation has followed what they used to
Worship.' They will reply, 'We left the people in the world when we were in
great need of them and we did not take them as friends. Now we are waiting for
our LORD WHOM we used to Worship.' ALLAH [S.W.T] will say, 'I am your LORD.' They
will say twice or thrice, 'We do not Worship any besides ALLAH [S.W.T].'"

for the (Hell) Fire.' Adam (P.B.U.H) will say, 'O LORD! Who are the mission for
the (Hell) Fire?' ALLAH [S.W.T] will say, 'Out of each thousand, take out 999.'
At that time every pregnant female shall drop her load (have a miscarriage) and
a child will have grey hair. And you shall see mankind as in a drunken state,
yet not drunk, but severe will be the torment of ALLAH [S.W.T]." (22.2)
(When the Prophet [S.A.W.S.] mentioned this), the people were so distressed (and
afraid) that their faces got changed (in color) whereupon the Prophet [S.A.W.S]
said, "From gog and magog nine-hundred ninety-nine will be taken out and
one from you. You Muslims (compared to the large number of other people) will
be like a black hair on the side of a white ox, or a white hair on the side of
a black ox, and I hope that you will be one-fourth of the people of
Paradise." On that, we said, "ALLAHU-Akbar!" Then he said,
"I hope that you will be) one-third of the people of Paradise." We
again said, "ALLAHU-Akbar!" Then he said, "(I hope that you will
be) one-half of the people of Paradise." So we said, ALLAHU Akbar."

the guidance is the guidance given by Muhammad [S.A.W.S]. And the most evil
affairs are their innovations; and every innovation is error." He would
further say: I am more dear to a Muslim even than his self; and he who left
behind property that is for his family and he who dies under debt or leaves
children (in helplessness) the responsibility (of paying his debt and bringing
up his children) lies on me."

I was in the company of Maslama b. Mukhallad ,
and 'Abdullah b. 'Amr b. 'As (R.A) was with him. 'Abdullah (R.A) said: The Hour
shall some only when the worst type of people are left on the earth. They will
be worse than the people of pre-Islamic days. They will get whatever they ask
of ALLAH [S.W.T]. While we were yet sitting when 'Uqba b. 'Amir (R.A) came, and
Maslama (R.A) said to him: 'Uqba, listen to what 'Abdullah says. 'Uqba (R.A) said:
He knows better; so far as I am concerned, I heard the Messenger of ALLAH
[S.W.T] [S.A.W.S] say: A group of people from my Ummah will continue to fight
in obedience to the Command of ALLAH [S.W.T], remaining dominant over their
enemies. Those who will oppose them shall not do them any harm. They will
remain ill this condition until the Hour overtakes them. (At this) 'Abdullah
(R.A) said: Yes. Then ALLAH [S.W.T] will raise a wild which will be fragrant
like musk and whose touch will be like the touch of silk ; (but) it will cause
the death of all (faithful) persons, not leaving behind a single person with an
iota of faith in his heart. Then only the worst of men will remain to be
overwhelmed by the Hour.

the barrier of Gog and Magog has been opened like it, and he (in order to
explain it) made a ring with the help of his thumb and forefinger. I said: ALLAH

Thereupon he said: Strange it is that some, people of my Ummah would attack the
House (Ka'ba) (for killing) a person who would belong to the tribe of the
Quraish and he would try to seek protection in the House. And when they would
reach the plain ground they would be sunk. We said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S], all sorts of people throng the path. Thereupon he said: Yes, there
would be amongst them people who would come with definite designs and those who
would come under duress and there would be travelers also, but they would all
be destroyed through one (stroke) of destruction. Though they would be raised
in different states (on the Day of Resurrection). ALLAH [S.W.T] would, however,
raise them according to their intention.

stick to the land. A person said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S], what is
your opinion about one who has neither camel nor sheep nor land? Thereupon, he
said: He should take hold of his sword and beat its edge with the help of stone

in one of the groups and made to march and a man strikes with his sword or

destroyed because of famine, nor be dominated by an enemy who is not amongst
them to take their lives and destroy them root and branch, and my LORD said:
Muhammad [S.A.W.S], whenever I make a decision, there is none to change it.
Well, I grant you for your Ummah that it would not be destroyed by famine and
it would not be dominated by an enemy who would not be amongst it and would
take their lives and destroy them root and branch even if all the people from
the different parts of the world join hands together (for this purpose), but it
would be from amongst them, viz. your Ummah, that some people would kill the
others or imprison the others.

Muslims would say: Nay, by ALLAH [S.W.T], we would never get aside from you and
from our brethren that you may fight them. They will then fight and a third
(part) of the army would run away, whom ALLAH [S.W.T] will never forgive. A
third (part of the army) which would be constituted of excellent martyrs in ALLAH
[S.W.T]'s eye, would be killed and the third who would never be put to trial
would win and they would be conquerors of Constantinople. And as they would be
busy in distributing the spoils of war (amongst themselves) after hanging their

among your family. They would then come out, but it would be of no avail. And

qualities. They have the patience to undergo a trial and immediately restore

fifthly, the good quality in them is that they put resistance against the

and they stood near a hillock and they met him as ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] was sitting. I said to myself: Better go to them and stand between
him and them that they may not attack him. Then I thought that perhaps there
had been going on secret negotiation amongst them. I however, went to them and
stood between them and him and I remember four of the words (on that occasion)
which I repeat (on the fingers of my hand) that ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] said: You will attack Arabia and ALLAH [S.W.T] will enable you to
conquer it, then you would attack Persia and HE would make you to conquer it.
Then you would attack Rome and ALLAH [S.W.T] will enable you to conquer it,

there would be no Qaisar after him, but, by ONE in WHOSE Hand is my life, you
would spend their treasures in the Cause of ALLAH [S.W.T].

(R.A) reported:
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] saying: You
have heard about a city the one side of which is in the land and the other is
in the sea (Constantinople). They said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S],
yes. There upon he said: The Last Hour would not come unless seventy thousand
persons from Bani lsra'il would attack it. When they would land there, they
will neither fight with weapons nor would shower arrows but would only say:
"There is no god but ALLAH and ALLAH is the Greatest," that one side
of it would fall. Thaur (R.A) (one of the narrators) said: I think that he said:
The part by the side of the ocean. Then they would say for the second time:
"There is no god but ALLAH and ALLAH is the Greatest" that the second
side would also fall, and they would say: "There is no god but ALLAH and
ALLAH is the Greatest," that the gates would be opened for them and they
would enter therein and, they would be collecting spoils of war and
distributing them amongst themselves that a noise would be heard and It would
be said: Verily, dajjal has come. And thus they would leave everything there
and would turn to him.

would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.

fact that I am the Messenger of ALLAH? Thereupon he said: Do you bear testimony
to the fact that I am the messenger of ALLAH? Thereupon ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: I affirm my faith in ALLAH [S.W.T] and in HIS Angels
(P.B.U.T) and in HIS Books, and what do you see? He said: I see the throne over
water. Whereupon ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: You see the throne
of Iblis upon the water, and what else do you see? He said: I see two truthful
and a liar or two liars and one truthful. Thereupon ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] said: Leave him he has been confounded.

ibn sa'id said to me something for which I
felt ashamed. He said: I can excuse others; but what has gone wrong with you, O
companions (R.A) of Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T] [S.A.W.S], that you take me as
dajjal? Has ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] not said: That he would be a Jew
whereas I am a Muslim and he also said: That he would not have children,
whereas I have children, and he also said: verily, ALLAH [S.W.T] has prohibited
him to enter Mecca whereas I have performed Pilgrimage, and he went on saying
this that I was about to be impressed by his talk. He (however) said this also:
I know where he (dajjal) is and I know his father and mother, and it was said
to him: Won't you feel pleased if you would be the same person? Thereupon he
said: If this offer is made to me, I would not resent that.

We came back after having performed Pilgrimage
or 'Umra and ibn sa'id was along with us. And we encamped at a place and the
people dispersed and I and he were left behind. I felt terribly frightened from
him as it was said about him that he was the dajjal. He brought his goods and
placed them by my luggage and I said: It is intense heat. Would you not place
that under that tree? And he did that. Then there appeared before us a flock of
sheep. He went and brought a cup of milk and said: Abu Sa'id (R.A), drink that.
I said it is intense heat and the milk is also hot (whereas the fact was) that
I did not like to drink from his hands or to opt to take it from his hand and
he said: Abu Sa'id (R.A), I think that I should take a rope and suspend it by
the tree and then commit suicide because of the talks of the people, and he
further said. Abu Sa'id (R.A) he who is ignorant of the saying of ALLAH
[S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] (he is to be pardoned), but O people of Ansar, is
this Hadith of ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] concealed from you whereas
you have the best knowledge of this Hadith of ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] amongst people? Did ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] not say that
he (dajjal) would be a non believer whereas I am a believer? Did ALLAH
[S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] not say he would be barren and no child would be
born to him, whereas I have left my children in Medina? Did ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S] not say: He would not get into Medina and Mecca whereas I
have been coming from Medina and now I intend to go to Mecca? Abu Sa'id (R.A)
said: I was about to accept the excuse put forward by him. Then he said: I know
the place where he would be born and where he is now. So I said to him: May
your whole day be spent.

'Abdullah b.
Umar (R.A) reported:
'Umar b. Khattab (R.A) went along with ALLAH
[S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] in the company of some persons to ibn sayyad that
he found him playing with children near the battlement of Bani Maghala and ibn
sayyad was at that time just at the threshold of adolescence and he did not
perceive (the presence of Holy Prophet [S.A.W.S]) until ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S] struck his back with his hands. ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] said: ibn sayyad, don't you bear witness that I am the Messenger of
ALLAH [S.W.T] [S.A.W.S]? ibn sayyad looked toward him and he said: I bear
witness to the fact that you the Messenger of the unlettered. ibn sayyad said
to the ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S]: Do you bear witness to the fact
that I am the messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T]? ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S]
rejected this and said: I affirm my faith in ALLAH [S.W.T] and in HIS
Messengers (P.B.U.T). Then ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said to him:
What do you see? ibn sayyad said: It is a Dukh. Thereupon ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: May you be disgraced and dishonored, you would not be
able to go beyond your rank. 'Umar b. Khattab (R.A) said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S], permit me that I should strike his neck. Thereupon ALLAH
[S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: If he is the same (dajjal) who would appear
near the Last Hour, you would not be able to overpower him, and he is not that
then is no good for you to kill him. 'Abdullah b. 'Umar (R.A) further narrated
that after some time ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] and Ubayy b. Ka'b
(R.A) went towards the palm trees where ibn sayyad was. When ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S] went near the tree he hid himself behind a tree with the
intention of hearing something from ibn sayyad before ibn sayyad could see him,
but ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] saw him on a bed with a blanket around
him from which a murmuring sound was being heard and ibn sayyad's mother saw
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] behind the trunk of the palm tree. She said
to ibn sayyad: Saf (that being his name), here is Muhammad [S.A.W.S]. Thereupon
ibn sayyad jumped up murmuring and ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: If
she had left him alone he would have made things clear. Abdullah b. Umar (R.A)
told that ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] stood up amongst the people and
Lauded ALLAH [S.W.T] as HE deserved, then he made a mention of the dajjal and
said: I warn you of him and there is no Prophet (P.B.U.T) who has not warned
his people against the dajjal. Even Noah (P.B.U.H) warned (against him) but I
am going to tell you a thing which no Prophet (P.B.U.T) told his people. You
must know that he (the dajjal) is one-eyed and ALLAH [S.W.T], the EXALTED and
GLORIOUS, is not one-eyed. Ibn Shihab (R.A) said: 'Umar b. Thabit al-Ansari
(R.A) informed me that some of the Companions (R.A) of ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] informed him that the day when ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S]
warned people against the dajjal, he also said: There would be written between
his two eyes (the word) kafir (infidel) and everyone who would resent his deeds
would be able to read or every Muslim would be about to read, and he also said:
Bear this thing in mind that none amongst you would be able to see ALLAH
[S.W.T], the EXALTED and GLORIOUS, until he dies.

much swollen with anger that the way was blocked. Ibn 'Umar (R.A) went to Hafsa
(R.A) and informed her about this. Thereupon she said: May ALLAH [S.W.T] have

knew it would be the extreme anger which would make dajjal appear in the world?

be along with him water and fire and what the people would see as water that
would be fire and that would burn and what would appear as fire that would be
water and any one of you who would see that should plunge in that which he sees

ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S], it is alleged that he would have along
with him (abundance of) food and water. Thereupon he said: he would be very
insignificant in the eye of ALLAH [S.W.T] (even) with all this.

'Abdullah b.
'Amr (R.A) reported:
That a person came to him and said: What is
this hadith that you narrate that the Last Hour would come at such and such
time? Thereupon he said: Hallowed be ALLAH [S.W.T], there is no god but ALLAH
[S.W.T] (or the words to the same effect). I have decided that I would not
narrate anything to anyone now. I had only said that you would see after some
time an important event that the (sacred) House (Ka'ba) would be burnt and it
would happen and definitely happen. He then reported that ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: The dajjal would appear in my Ummah and he would stay
(in the world) for forty−I cannot say whether he meant forty days, forty months
or forty years. And ALLAH [S.W.T] would then send Jesus, son of Mary (P.B.U.T)
who would resemble 'Urwa b Mas'ud (R.A). He (Jesus Christ (P.B.U.H)) would
chase him and kill him. Then people would live for seven years that there would
be no ran cour between two persons. Then ALLAH [S.W.T] would send cold wind
from the side of Syria that none would survive upon the earth having a speck of
good in him or faith in him but he would die, so much so that even if some
amongst you were to enter the innermost part of the mountain, this wind would
reach that place also and that would cause his death. I heard ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S] as saying: Only the wicked people would survive and they
would be as careless as birds with the charactertistics of beasts. They would
never appreciate the good nor condemn evil. Then the satan would come to them
in human form and would say: Don't you respond? And they would say: What do you
order us? And he would command them to Worship the idols but, in spite of this,
they would have abundance of sustenance and lead comfortable lives. Then the
trumpet would be blown and no one would hear that but he would bend his neck to
one side and raise it from the other side and the first one to hear that
trumpet would be the person who would be busy in setting right the tank meant
for providing water to the camels. He would swoon and the other people would
also swoon, then ALLAH [S.W.T] would send or HE would cause to send rain which
would be like dew and there would grow out of it the bodies of the people. Then
the second trumpet would be blown and they would stand up and begin to look
(around). Then it would be said: O people, go to your LORD, and make them stand
there. And they would be questioned. Then it would be said: Bring out a group
(out of them) for the Hell−Fire. And then it would be asked: How much? It would
be said: Nine hundred and ninty−nine out of one thousand for the Hell−Fire and
that would be the day which would make the children old because of its terror
and that would be the day about which it has been said:" On the day when
the Shank would be uncovered" (68. 42).

anything. They said: Do you mean forty months? He said: I cannot say anything.
They said: Do you mean forty years? He said: I cannot say anything. Then ALLAH
[S.W.T] would cause the water to, descend from the sky and they (people) will

was created, on it he entered Paradise, and on it, he was sent down from it.
And in it there is an hour in which the Muslim worshipper would not stand in
Salat, asking ALLAH [S.W.T] for anything except that HE would give it to
him.'" Abu Huraira (R.A) said: "I met Abdullah bin Salam (R.A), and I
mentioned this Hadith to him. He said: 'I am more knowledgeable about that
hour.' So I said: 'Inform me about it, and do not keep any of it from me.' He
said: 'It is after al-Asr until the sun has set.' I said: 'How can it be after
Al-Asr when ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: 'the Muslim worshipper
would not stand in Salat.' And that is a time that prayer is not performed
in?" So Abdullah bin Salam (R.A) said: 'Didn't ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] say: "Whoever sat in a gathering awaiting the Salat then he is
in Salat"? I said: 'Of course.' He said: 'Then that is it.'"

ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] as saying that
ALLAH [S.W.T], the EXALTED and GLORIOUS, said: MY servants, I have made oppression
unlawful for ME and unlawful for you, so do not commit oppression against one another.
MY servants, all of you are liable to err except one whom I guide on the right path,
so seek right guidance from ME so that I should direct you to the right path. O
MY servants, all of you are hungry (needy) except one whom I feed, so beg food from
ME, so that I may give that to you. O MY servants, all of you are naked (need clothes)
except one whom I provide garments, so beg clothes from ME, so that I should clothe
you. O MY servants, you commit error night and day and I am there to pardon your
sins, so beg pardon from ME, so that I should grant you pardon. O MY servants, you
can neither do ME any harm nor can you do ME any good. O MY servants, even if the
first amongst you and the last amongst you and even the whole of human race of yours,
and that of jinns even, become (equal in) ALLAH [S.W.T] conscious like the heart
of a single person amongst you, nothing would add to MY Power. O MY servants, even
if the first amongst you and the last amongst you and the whole human race of yours
and that of the jinns too in unison become the most wicked (all beating) like the
heart of a single person, it would cause no loss to MY Power. O MY servants, even
if the first amongst you and the last amongst you and the whole human race of yours
and that of jinns also all stand in one plain ground and you ask ME and I confer
upon every person what he asks for, it would not in any way, cause any loss to ME
(even less) than that which is caused to the ocean by dipping the needle in it.
MY servants, these for you I shall reward you for then, so he who deeds of yours
which I am recording finds good should Praise ALLAH and he who does not find that
should not blame anyone but his ownself. Sa'id (R.A) said: That when Abu Idris Khaulini
(R.A) narrated this hadith he knelt upon his knees.

ALLAH [S.W.T] on the roads and paths. And when they find some people celebrating
the Praises of ALLAH [S.W.T], they call each other, saying, "Come to the object
of your pursuit.'" He added, "Then the Angels (P.B.U.T) encircle them
with their wings up to the sky of the world." He added. "(after those
people celebrated the Praises of ALLAH [S.W.T], and the Angels (P.B.U.T) go back),
their LORD, asks them (those Angels (P.B.U.T)) - though HE knows better than them----'What
do MY slaves say?' The Angels (P.B.U.T) reply, 'they say: Subhan ALLAH, ALLAHU Akbar,
and Alham-du-lillah, ALLAH [S.W.T] then says 'Did they see ME?' The Angels (P.B.U.T)
reply, 'No! By ALLAH [S.W.T], they didn't see YOU.' ALLAH [S.W.T] says, How it would
have been if they saw ME?' The Angels (P.B.U.T) reply, 'If they saw YOU, they would
Worship YOU more devoutly and celebrate YOUR Glory more deeply, and declare YOUR
freedom from any resemblance to anything more often.' ALLAH [S.W.T] says (to the
Angels (P.B.U.T)), 'What do they ask ME for?' The Angels (P.B.U.T) reply, 'They
ask YOU for Paradise.' ALLAH [S.W.T] says (to the Angels (P.B.U.T)), 'Did they see
it?' The Angels (P.B.U.T) say, 'No! By ALLAH [S.W.T], O LORD! They did not see it.'
ALLAH [S.W.T] says, How it would have been if they saw it?' The Angels (P.B.U.T)
say, 'If they saw it, they would have greater covetousness for it and would seek
it with greater zeal and would have greater desire for it.' ALLAH [S.W.T] says,
'From what do they seek refuge?' The Angels (P.B.U.T) reply, 'They seek refuge from
the (Hell) Fire.' ALLAH [S.W.T] says, 'Did they see it?' The Angels (P.B.U.T) say,
'No! By ALLAH [S.W.T], O LORD! They did not see it.' ALLAH [S.W.T] says, How it
would have been if they saw it?' The Angels (P.B.U.T) say, 'If they saw it they
would flee from it with the extreme fleeing and would have extreme fear from it.'
Then ALLAH [S.W.T] says, 'I make you witnesses that I have Forgiven them."'
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] added, "One of the Angels (P.B.U.T) would
say, 'There was so-and-so amongst them, and he was not one of them, but he had just
come for some need.' ALLAH [S.W.T] would say, 'These are those people whose companions
will not be reduced to misery.'"

and said, "ALLAH [S.W.T] ordered (the appointed Angels (P.B.U.T) over you)
that the good and the bad deeds be written, and HE then showed (the way) how (to
write). If somebody intends to do a good deed and he does not do it, then ALLAH
[S.W.T] will write for him a full good deed (in his account with HIM); and if he
intends to do a good deed and actually did it, then ALLAH [S.W.T] will write for
him (in his account with HIM) (its reward equal) from ten to seven hundred times
to many more times: and if somebody intended to do a bad deed and he does not do
it, then ALLAH [S.W.T] will write a full good deed (in his account with HIM), and
if he intended to do it (a bad deed) and actually did it, then ALLAH [S.W.T] will

of MINE. And the most beloved things with which MY slave comes nearer to ME, is
what I have enjoined upon him; and MY slave keeps on coming closer to ME through
performing Nawafil (praying or doing extra deeds besides what is obligatory) till
I love him, so I become his sense of hearing with which he hears, and his sense
of sight with which he sees, and his hand with which he grips, and his leg with
which he walks; and if he asks ME, I will give him, and if he asks MY Protection
(Refuge), I will Protect him; (i.e. give him MY Refuge) and I do not hesitate to
do anything as I hesitate to take the soul of the believer, for he hates death,
and I hate to disappoint him."

ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] said, "Your
stay (in this world) in comparison to the stay of the nations preceding you, is
like the period between 'Asr prayer and the sun set (in comparison to a whole day).
The people of the Torah were given the Torah and they acted on it till midday and
then they were unable to carry on. And they were given (a reward equal to) one Qirat
each. Then the people of the Gospel were given the Gospel and they acted on it till
'Asr Prayer and then they were unable to carry on, so they were given a reward equal
to) one Qirat each. Then you were given the Qur'an and you acted on it till sunset,
therefore you were given (a reward equal to) two Qirats each. On that, the people
of the Scriptures said, 'These people (Muslims) did less work than we but they took
a bigger reward.' ALLAH [S.W.T] said (to them). 'Have I done any oppression to you
as regards your rights?' They said, "No." Then ALLAH [S.W.T] said, 'That
is MY Blessing which I grant to whomsoever I Will.'"

One day while the Prophet [S.A.W.S] was sitting
in the company of some people, (The Angel) Gabriel (P.B.U.H) came and asked, "What
is faith?" ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] replied, 'Faith is to believe
in ALLAH [S.W.T], HIS Angels (P.B.U.T), (the) meeting with HIM, HIS Apostles (P.B.U.T),
and to believe in Resurrection." Then he further asked, "What is Islam?"
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] replied, "To Worship ALLAH [S.W.T] Alone
and none else, to offer prayers perfectly to pay the compulsory charity (Zakat)
and to observe fasts during the month of Ramadan." Then he further asked, "What
is Ihsan (perfection)?" ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] replied, "To
Worship ALLAH [S.W.T] as if you see HIM, and if you cannot achieve this state of
devotion then you must consider that HE is looking at you." Then he further
asked, "When will the Hour be established?" ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S]
replied, "The answerer has no better knowledge than the questioner. But I will
inform you about its portents.
1. When a slave (lady)
gives birth to her master.
2. When the shepherds
of black camels start boasting and competing with others in the construction of
higher buildings. And the Hour is one of five things which nobody knows except ALLAH
[S.W.T]. The Prophet [S.A.W.S] then recited: "Verily, with ALLAH (Alone) is
the Knowledge of the Hour--." (31.34) Then that man (Gabriel (P.B.U.H)) left
and the Prophet [S.A.W.S] asked his companions (R.A) to call him back, but they
could not see him. Then the Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "That was Gabriel (P.B.U.H)
who came to teach the people their religion." Abu 'Abdullah (R.A) said: He
(the Prophet [S.A.W.S]) considered all that as a part of faith.

We were entrusted with the task of tending the
camels. On my turn when I came back in the evening after grazing them in the pastures,
I found ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Messenger [S.A.W.S] stand and address the people. I heard
these words of his: If any Muslim performs ablution well, then stands and prays
two rak'ahs setting about them with his heart as well as his face, Paradise would
be guaranteed to him. I said: What a fine thing is this! And a narrator who was
before me said: The first was better than even this. When I cast a glance, I saw
that it was 'Umar (R.A) who said: I see that you have just come and observed: If
anyone amongst you performs the ablution, and then completes the ablution well and
then says: I testify that there is no god but ALLAH and that Muhammad [S.A.W.S]
is the servant of ALLAH and HIS Messenger, the eight gates of Paradise would be
opened for him and he may enter by whichever of them he wishes.

Buthan or al-’Aqiq and bring two large she camels without being guilty of sin or
without severing the ties of kinship? We said: Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T] [S.A.W.S],
we would like to do it. Upon this he said: Does not one of you go out in the morning
to the Mosque and teach or recite two verses from the Book of ALLAH [S.W.T], the
MAJESTIC and GLORIOUS? That is better for him than two she camels, and three verses
are better (than three she camels), and four verses are better for him than four

the Qur’an, for on the Day of Resurrection it will come as an intercessor for those
who recite It. Recite the two bright ones, Surah al-Baqara and Surah Al ‘Imran,
for on the Day of Resurrection they will come as two clouds or two shades, or two
flocks of birds in ranks, pleading for those who recite them. Recite Surah al-Baqara,
for to take recourse to it is a blessing and to give it up is a cause of grief,
and the magicians cannot confront it. (Mu’awiya (R.A) said: It has been conveyed
to me that here Batala means magicians.)

This as a gate opened in heaven today which had never been opened before. Then when
an Angel (P.B.U.H) descended through it, he said: This is an Angel (P.B.U.H) who
came down to the earth who had never come down before. He greeted and said: Rejoice
in two lights given to you which have not been given to any Prophet (P.B.U.T) before
you: Falihat al-Kitab (1.1-7) and the concluding verses of Suarah al-Baqara (2.286).
You will never recite a letter from them for which you will not be given (a reward).

thing upon which if you acted you would catch up with those who have surpassed you?
Nobody would overtake you and you would be better than the people amongst whom you
live except those who would do the same. Say, "Subhan-ALLAH", "Alhamdu-lillah"

three times and "Alhamdu lillah" thirty three times and "ALLAHU Akbar"

do; they keep the fasts as we keep, and they give sadaqa out of their surplus riches.
Upon this he (the Holy Prophet [S.A.W.S]) said: Has ALLAH [S.W.T] not prescribed
for you (a course) by following which you can (also) do sadaqa? In every declaration
of the Glorification of ALLAH [S.W.T] (i.e. saying Subhan ALLAH) there is a sadaqa,
and every Takbir (i.e. saying ALLAHU Akbar) is a sadaqa, and every Praise of HIS
(saying al-Hamdu Lillah) is a sadaqa and every declaration that HE is ONE (La illha
ill-ALLAH) is a sadaqa, and enjoining of good is a sadaqa, and forbidding of that
which is evil is a sadaqa, and in man's sexual intercourse (with his wife,) there
is a sadaqa. They (the Companions (R.A)) said: Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T] [S.A.W.S],
is there reward for him who satisfies his sexual passion among us? He said: Tell

as given for manumitting ten slaves; and one hundred good deeds will be written
in his accounts, and one hundred sins will be deducted from his accounts, and it
(his saying) will be a shield for him from satan on that day till night, and nobody
will be able to do a better deed except the one who does more than he."

He who uttered these words: "There is no god but ALLAH, the ONE, having no
partner with HIM. Sovereignty belongs to HIM and all the Praise is due to HIM, and
HE is POTENT over everything" one hundred times every day there is a reward
of emancipating ten slaves for him, and there are recorded hundred virtues to his
credit, and hundred vices are blotted out from his scroll, and that is a safeguard
for him against the satan on that day till evening and no one brings anything more
excellent than this, except one who has done more than this (who utters these words
more than one hundred times and does more good acts) and he who utters: "Hallowed
be ALLAH and all Praise is due to HIM," one hundred times a day, his sins are
obliterated even if they are equal to the extent of the foam of the ocean.

to us and said, "O people! Don't exert yourselves, for you do not call a deaf
or an absent one, but you call the ALL-LISTENER, the ALL-SEER." The Prophet

My LORD! Lo! They have led many of mankind astray:" But whoso followeth me,
he verily is of me" (al-Qur'an, 14.36) and Jesus (P.B.U.H) said:" If THOU
punisheth them, Lo! They are THY slaves, and if THOU forgiveth them-verily THOU
art the MIGHTY, the WISE" (al-Qur'an, 5.118). Then he raised his hands and
said: O LORD, my Ummah, my Ummah, and wept; so ALLAH [S.W.T] the HIGH and the EXALTED
said: O Gabriel (P.B.U.H), go to Muhammad [S.A.W.S] (Though your LORD knows it fully
well) and ask him: What makes thee weep? So Gabriel (P.B.U.H) came to him and asked
him, and the Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T] [S.A.W.S] informed him what he had said
(Though ALLAH [S.W.T] knew it fully well). Upon this ALLAH [S.W.T] said: O Gabriel
(P.B.U.H), go to Muhammad [S.A.W.S] and say: Verily WE will please thee with regard
to your Ummah and would not displease thee.

for ALLAH). Peace be on you, O Prophet, and ALLAH's Mercy and Blessings (are on
you). And Peace be on us and on the good (pious) worshipers of ALLAH. I testify
that none has the right to be Worshiped but ALLAH and that Muhammad is HIS slave

to every good (pious) worshiper of ALLAH [S.W.T], whether he be in the Heaven or

Mercy on Muhammad and on the family of Muhammad, as YOU sent YOUR Mercy on Abraham
and on the family of Abraham, for YOU are the MOST PRAISEWORTHY, the MOST GLORIOUS.

ALLAH [S.W.T], the EXALTED and MAJESTIC said: Every act of the son of Adam (P.B.U.H)
is for him, except fasting. It is (exclusively) meant for ME and I (Alone) will
reward it. Fasting is a shield. When any one of you is fasting on a day, he should
neither indulge in obscene language, nor raise the voice; or if anyone reviles him
or tries to quarrel with him he should say: I am a person fasting. By HIM, in WHOSE
Hand is the life of Muhammad [S.A.W.S], the breath of the observer of fast is sweeter
to ALLAH [S.W.T] on the Day of Judgment than the fragrance of musk. The one who
fasts has two (occasions) of joy, one when he breaks the fast he is glad with the
breaking of (the fast) and one when he meets his LORD he is glad with his fast.

not seen and the ear has not heard and no human heart has ever perceived them. He
then recited this verse: "They forsake (their) beds, calling upon their LORD

what refreshment of the eyes is hidden for them; a reward for what they did"

which ALLAH [S.W.T] has reserved for the Mujahidin who fight in HIS Cause, and the
distance between each of two grades is like the distance between the Heaven and
the Earth. So, when you ask ALLAH [S.W.T] (for something), ask for Al-Firdaus which
is the best and highest part of Paradise." (i.e. the sub-narrator added, "I

to rank? HE (ALLAH [S.W.T]) said: The person who would be admitted into Paradise
last of all among those deserving of Paradise who are admitted to it. I would be
said to him: Enter Paradise. He would say: O my LORD! How (should I enter) while
the people have settled in their apartments and taken the shares (portions)? It
would be said to him: Would you be pleased if there be for you like the kingdom
of a king amongst the kings of the world? He would say: I am pleased my LORD. HE
(ALLAH [S.W.T]) would say: For you is that, and like that, and like that, and like
that, and that. He would say at the fifth (point): I am well pleased, my LORD. HE
(ALLAH [S.W.T]) would say: It is for you and ten times like it, and for you is what
your self desires and your eye enjoys. He would say: I am well pleased, my LORD.
He (Moses (P.B.U.H)) said: (Which is) the highest of their (inhabitants of Paradise)
ranks? HE (ALLAH [S.W.T]) said: They are those Whom I choose. I establish their
Honor with MY OWN Hand and then set a seal over it (and they would be Blessed with
Bounties) which no eye has seen, no ear has heard and no human mind has perceived:
and this is substantiated by the Book of ALLAH [S.W.T], the EXALTED and GREAT: "So
no soul knows what delight of the eye is hidden for them; a reward for what they
did" (32.17).

Number 476:
Narrated Ibn
Umar (R.A):
The Prophet
[S.A.W.S] said, "The keys of the unseen are five and none knows them but
ALLAH [S.W.T]:
(1) None knows
what is in the womb, but ALLAH [S.W.T];
(2) None knows
what will happen tomorrow, but ALLAH [S.W.T];
(3) None knows
when it will rain, but ALLAH [S.W.T];
(4) None knows
where he will die, but ALLAH [S.W.T] (knows that);
(5) And none
knows when the Hour will be established, but ALLAH [S.W.T]."
Sahih
Bukhari: Volume 9, Book 93: Oneness, Uniqueness of ALLAH [S.W.T] (Tawheed),
Number 610:
Narrated Abu
Huraira (R.A):
Once the Prophet [S.A.W.S] was preaching while
a Bedouin was sitting there. The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "A man from among
the people of Paradise will request ALLAH [S.W.T] to allow him to cultivate the
land ALLAH [S.W.T] will say to him, 'Haven't you got whatever you desire?' He
will reply, 'yes, but I like to cultivate the land (ALLAH [S.W.T] will permit
him and) he will sow the seeds, and within seconds the plants will grow and
ripen and (the yield) will be harvested and piled in heaps like mountains. On
that ALLAH [S.W.T] will say (to him), "Take, here you are, O son of Adam
(P.B.U.H), for nothing satisfies you.' "On that the Bedouin said, "O
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S]! Such man must be either from Quraish or from
Ansar, for they are farmers while we are not." On that ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Apostle [S.A.W.S] smiled."
