54. Tribulations and Signs of the Last Hour
٥٤۔ كتاب الفتن وأشراط الساعة
The Dajjal would be followed by seventy thousand Jews of Isfahan wearing Persian shawls.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَتْبَعُ الدَّجَّالَ مِنْ يَهُودِ أَصْبَهَانَ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا عَلَيْهِمُ الطَّيَالِسَةُ
I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: The people would run away from the Dajjal seeking shelter in the mountains. She said: Where would be the Arabs then in that day? He said: They would be small in number.
أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَيَفِرَّنَّ النَّاسُ مِنَ الدَّجَّالِ فِي الْجِبَالِ قَالَتْ أُمُّ شَرِيكٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَأَيْنَ الْعَرَبُ يَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ هُمْ قَلِيلٌ
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Ibn Juraij with the same chain of transmitters.
عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ
We used to go to Imran b. Husain passing in front of Hisham b. 'Amir. He, one day, said: You pass by me (in order) to go to some persons, but (amongst the living persons) none remained in the company of Messenger of Allah ﷺ more than I and none knows more ahadith than I. I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: There would be no creation (creating more trouble) than the Dajjal right from the creation of Adam to the Last Hour.
ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ إِنَّكُمْ لَتُجَاوِزُونِي إِلَى رِجَالٍ مَا كَانُوا بِأَحْضَرَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنِّي وَلاَ أَعْلَمَ بِحَدِيثِهِ مِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَا بَيْنَ خَلْقِ آدَمَ إِلَى قِيَامِ السَّاعَةِ خَلْقٌ أَكْبَرُ مِنَ الدَّجَّالِ
This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of 'Imran b. Husain with a slight variation of wording.
أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَمْرٌ أَكْبَرُ مِنَ الدَّجَّالِ
Hasten to do good deeds before six things happen: the rising of the sun from the west, the smoke, the Dajjal, the beast and (the death) of one of you or the general turmoil.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ بَادِرُوا بِالأَعْمَالِ سِتًّا طُلُوعَ الشَّمْسِ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا أَوِ الدُّخَانَ أَوِ الدَّجَّالَ أَوِ الدَّابَّةَ أَوْ خَاصَّةَ أَحَدِكُمْ أَوْ أَمْرَ الْعَامَّةِ
Hasten in performing these good deeds (before these) six things (happen): (the appearance) of the Dajjal, the smoke, the beast of the earth, the rising of the sun from the west, the general turmoil (leading to large-scale massacre) and death of masses and individuals.
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ بَادِرُوا بِالأَعْمَالِ سِتًّا الدَّجَّالَ وَالدُّخَانَ وَدَابَّةَ الأَرْضِ وَطُلُوعَ الشَّمْسِ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا وَأَمْرَ الْعَامَّةِ وَخُوَيِّصَةَ أَحَدِكُمْ
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Qatada through another chain of transmitters.
عَنْ قَتَادَةَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَهُ
