54. Tribulations and Signs of the Last Hour
٥٤۔ كتاب الفتن وأشراط الساعة
No one asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ more about Dajjil than I asked him. He said: He should not be a source of worry to you for he would not be able to do any harm to you. I said: Messenger of Allah, 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 (even) with all this.
مَا سَأَلَ أَحَدٌ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنِ الدَّجَّالِ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا سَأَلْتُ قَالَ وَمَا يُنْصِبُكَ مِنْهُ إِنَّهُ لاَ يَضُرُّكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ مَعَهُ الطَّعَامَ وَالأَنْهَارَ قَالَ هُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ
What did you ask? Mughira replied: I said that the people alleged that he would have a mountain load of bread and mutton and rivers of water. Thereupon he said: He would be more insignificant in the eye of Allah compared with all this.
مَا سَأَلَ أَحَدٌ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنِ الدَّجَّالِ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا سَأَلْتُهُ قَالَ وَمَا سُؤَالُكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ إِنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ مَعَهُ جِبَالٌ مِنْ خُبْزٍ وَلَحْمٍ وَنَهَرٌ مِنْ مَاءٍ قَالَ هُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Isma'il through other chains of transmitters with a slight variation of wording.
