The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿThe Dajjal will emerge from a land in the east called Khurasan and he will be followed by peoples whose faces are like hammered shields.ʿ
حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّ الدَّجَّالَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ أَرْضٍ بِالْمَشْرِقِ يُقَالُ لَهَا خُرَاسَانُ يَتَّبِعُهُ أَقْوَامٌ كَأَنَّ وُجُوهَهُمُ الْمَجَانُّ الْمُطْرَقَةُ
