We were with Ibn 'Abbas and (the people) talked about al-Dajjal. (One of them remarked. There is written between his eyes (the word) Kafir (infidel). The narrator said: Ibn 'Abbas remarked: I did not hear him (the Holy Prophet) say it, but he said: So far as Ibrahim is concerned. you may see your companion and so far as Moses is concerned, he is a well-built man with wheat complexion (riding) on a red camel with its halter made of the fibre of date-palm (and I perceive) as if I am seeing towards him as he is going down in the valley saying: I am at Thy service! my Lord.

إِنَّهُ مَكْتُوبٌ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ كَافِرٌ قَالَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ لَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ قَالَ ذَاكَ وَلَكِنَّهُ قَالَ أَمَّا إِبْرَاهِيمُ فَانْظُرُوا إِلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ وَأَمَّا مُوسَى فَرَجُلٌ آدَمُ جَعْدٌ عَلَى جَمَلٍ أَحْمَرَ مَخْطُومٍ بِخُلْبَةٍ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ إِذَا انْحَدَرَ فِي الْوَادِي يُلَبِّي

I was in the company of Ibn ʿAbbas and the people talked about Ad-Dajjal and said, "Ad-Dajjal will come with the word Kafir (non-believer) written in between his eyes." On that Ibn ʿAbbas said, "I have not heard this from the Prophet ﷺ but I heard him saying, 'As if I saw Moses just now entering the valley reciting Talbyia. ' "

That when the people mentioned before Ibn ʿAbbas that the Dajjal would have the word Kafir, (i.e. unbeliever) or the letters Kafir (the root of the Arabic verb 'disbelieve') written on his forehead, I heard Ibn ʿAbbas saying, "I did not hear this, but the Prophet ﷺ said, 'If you want to see Abraham, then look at your companion (i.e. the Prophet) but Moses was a curly-haired, brown man (who used to ride) a red camel, the reins of which was made of fires of date-palms. As if I were now looking down a valley."

We were with Ibn ʿAbbas and the people mentioned Ad-Dajjal. Someone said, "The word 'Kafir' (unbeliever) is written in between his (Ad-Dajjal's) eyes." Ibn ʿAbbas said, "I have not heard the Prophet saying this, but he said, 'As regards Abraham, he looks like your companion (i.e. the Prophet, Muhammad), and as regards Moses, he is a brown curly haired man riding a camel and reigned with a strong jute rope, as if I am now looking at him getting down in the valley and saying, "Labbaik".'"

[Machine] They say that it is written between his eyes K F R. Ibn Abbas said, "I did not hear him say that. However, as for Ibrahim ﷺ , look at your companion, and as for Musa ﷺ , he is a man of medium height, with curly hair, riding a Red Camel. He looks as if I am looking at him descending into the valley, making takbeer."

[Machine] Written between his eyes was the letter Kaf, so Ibn Abbas said, "I have not heard the Prophet ﷺ say anything about that. However, regarding Ibrahim ﷺ , he said, 'look at your companion.' He meant himself ﷺ . And as for Musa, he was a tall, curly-haired man, riding on a red camel with a big nose, as if I am looking at him now, descending from the valley, responding to the call." My father said, HuShaym said, "The khulbah is a soft cloth."
