[Machine] He said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The Antichrist will emerge during a period of confusion in religion and ignorance in knowledge. He will have forty nights that are equivalent to one year, one night equivalent to a month, and one night equivalent to a week. The rest of his days will be like your days. He will have a donkey on which he will ride, its ear to its ear measuring forty cubits. He will say to the people, 'I am your Lord,' even though he is blind in one eye. Indeed, your Lord is not one-eyed, and it is written between his eyes that he is a disbeliever (Kafir). Every believer will read it, literate or illiterate. There will not be any water or well left except for the cities of Madinah and Makkah, which Allah has made forbidden for him. The angels will stand guarding their gates, and with him will be mountains of bread. The people will be in great distress, except those who follow him. With him, there will be two rivers. I know which is Paradise and which is Hell. Whoever is entered into the one named Paradise will actually be in Hell, and whoever is entered into the one named Hell will actually be in Paradise." He said, "Allah will send devils with him, who will speak to the people. With him, there will be a great trial. He will command the sky, and it will rain upon the people, and he will kill a person, then bring him back to life before the people's eyes. He will not have control over any people other than his own. He will say, 'O people, why don't you come out to the deceitful liar?' They will say, 'This is a genie man,' and they will set out towards him. Suddenly, they will find themselves with Jesus, the son of Mary. The prayer will be established, and it will be said to him, 'Come forward, O Spirit of Allah.' He will reply, 'Let your Imam come forward and lead you in prayer.' After performing the morning prayer, they will go towards the Antichrist. When the Antichrist sees Jesus, he will start melting like salt in water, and he will try to flee from him. Jesus will pursue and kill him until even a tree or a stone will call out, 'O Spirit of Allah, here is a Jew hiding behind me, so come and kill him.'"

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stayed in Makkah for ten years, following the people in their homes in 'Ukaz and Majinah, and during the seasons in Mina. He would say, "Who will shelter and support me? Who will assist me until I deliver the message of my Lord, and he will be rewarded with Paradise?" So much so that a man would come from Yemen or Egypt, and his people would warn him, saying, "Beware of the young boy from Quraysh who will deceive you." But he would walk among them and they would point at him with their fingers. Until Allah sent someone from Yathrib (Medina) and we offered him shelter and believed in him. The man would return to his people, and they would embrace Islam because of him, to the point that there was not a house in Al-Ansar (the supporters) except there were some Muslims living in it. Then, they all came together and said, "Until when shall we leave the Messenger of Allah ﷺ being expelled in the mountains of Makkah and living in fear?" Seventy men of us left until we reached him in the season. We made an appointment with the tribes of Al-'Aqabah, and met him there, a group of men and a group of women. We said, "O Messenger of Allah! Why don't we give you our pledge?" He replied, "Give me your pledge based on hearing and obeying, in ease and hardship, in wealth and poverty, and to enjoin good and forbid evil. And that you will say in Allah's cause, fear no blame from anyone, and to help me rather than hinder me when I come to you. If you fulfill this, then it will be better for you before Allah." We said, "O Messenger of Allah! Rain on us your guidance." We swear by Allah, we will never abandon this pledge nor take it away. So we gave him our pledge, and he grasped the hand of As'ad bin Zurarah, who was one of the youngest among us, and said, "O people of Yathrib! We have not aimed against and attacked the backs of camels unless we knew that he is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . And indeed his leaving today means the tribal fragmentation of the entire Arabs and the killing of your best people. And the swords will bite you, whether you are a people who can endure that or a people who fear from yourselves a decline, clarify it, and it will be more excuse for you before Allah." We said, "Remove from us, O As'ad!" By Allah! We will never abandon this pledge nor seize it away. So we gave him our pledge, and he made a condition and gave us Paradise in return.

مَكَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ يَتْبَعُ النَّاسَ فِي مَنَازِلِهِمْ بعُكَاظٍ وَمَجَنَّةَ وَفِي الْمَوَاسِمِ بِمِنًى يَقُولُ مَنْ يُؤْوِينِي؟ مَنْ يَنْصُرُنِي حَتَّى أُبَلِّغَ رِسَالَةَ رَبِّي وَلَهُ الْجَنَّةُ؟ حَتَّى إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ أَوْ مِنْ مِصْرَ كَذَا قَالَ فَيَأْتِيهِ قَوْمُهُ فَيَقُولُونَ احْذَرْ غُلَامَ قُرَيْشٍ لَا يَفْتِنُكَ وَيَمْشِي بَيْنَ رِجَالِهِمْ وَهُمْ يُشِيرُونَ إِلَيْهِ بِالْأَصَابِعِ حَتَّى بَعَثَنَا اللهُ لَهُ مِنْ يَثْرِبَ فَآوَيْنَاهُ وَصَدَّقْنَاهُ فَيَخْرُجُ الرَّجُلُ مِنَّا فَيُؤْمِنُ بِهِ وَيُقْرِئُهُ الْقُرْآنَ فَيَنْقَلِبُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَيُسْلِمُونَ بِإِسْلَامِهِ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ دَارٌ مِنْ دُورِ الْأَنْصَارِ إِلَّا وَفِيهَا رَهْطٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يُظْهِرُونَ الْإِسْلَامَ ثُمَّ ائْتَمَرُوا جَمِيعًا فَقُلْنَا حَتَّى مَتَى نَتْرُكُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يُطْرَدُ فِي جِبَالِ مَكَّةَ وَيَخَافُ؟ فَرَحَلَ إِلَيْهِ مِنَّا سَبْعُونَ رَجُلًا حَتَّى قَدِمُوا عَلَيْهِ فِي الْمَوْسِمِ فَوَاعَدْنَاهُ شِعْبَ الْعَقَبَةِ فَاجْتَمَعْنَا عِنْدَهُ مِنْ رَجُلٍ وَرَجُلَيْنِ حَتَّى تَوَافَيْنَا فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ علَامَ نُبَايِعُكَ قَالَ تُبَايِعُونِي عَلَى السَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ فِي النَّشَاطِ وَالْكَسَلِ وَالنَّفَقَةِ فِي الْعُسْرِ وَالْيُسْرِ وَعَلَى الْأَمْرِ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْيِ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَأَنْ تَقُولُوا فِي اللهِ لَا تَخَافُونَ فِي اللهِ لَوْمَةَ لَائِمٍ وَعَلَى أَنْ تَنْصُرُونِي فَتَمْنَعُونِي إِذَا قَدِمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ مِمَّاتَمْنَعُونَ مِنْهُ أَنْفُسَكُمْ وَأَزْوَاجَكُمْ وَأَبْنَاءَكُمْ وَلَكُمُ الْجَنَّةُ قَالَ فَقُمْنَا إِلَيْهِ فَبَايَعْنَاهُ وَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ أَسْعَدُ بْنُ زُرَارَةَ وَهُوَ مِنْ أَصْغَرِهِمْ فَقَالَ رُوَيْدًا يَا أَهْلَ يَثْرِبَ فَإِنَّا لَمْ نَضْرِبْ أَكْبَادَ الْإِبِلِ إِلَّا وَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَإِنَّ إِخْرَاجَهُ الْيَوْمَ مُفَارَقَةُ الْعَرَبِ كَافَّةً وَقَتْلُ خِيَارِكُمْ وَأَنَّ تَعَضَّكُمُ السُّيُوفُ فَإِمَّا أَنْتُمْ قَوْمٌ تَصْبِرُونَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَأَجْرُكُمْ عَلَى اللهِ وَإِمَّا أَنْتُمْ قَوْمٌ تَخَافُونَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ جَبِينَةً فَبَيِّنُوا ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ أَعْذَرَ لَكُمْ عِنْدَ اللهِ قَالُوا أَمِطْ عَنَّا يَا أَسْعَدُ فَوَاللهِ لَا نَدَعُ هَذِهِ الْبَيْعَةَ أَبَدًا وَلَا نَسْلُبُهَا أَبَدًا قَالَ فَقُمْنَا إِلَيْهِ فَبَايَعْنَاهُ فَأَخَذَ عَلَيْنَا وَشَرَطَ وَيُعْطِينَا عَلَى ذَلِكَ الْجَنَّةَ

[Machine] Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ spent ten years following people in their homes during the season of Manazil, Muzdalifah, and 'Ukaz. He would ask, "Who will shelter me? Who will support me until I convey the messages of my Lord, and for him is Paradise?" Yet, he would find no one to support him or shelter him. And there would be a man who would leave from Egypt or Yemen to bring him back to his people, and they would warn him, "Beware of the young Quraishi boy who will tempt you." He would walk among their tents, calling them to Allah Almighty, and they would point at him with their fingers. Then Allah sent us from Yathrib (Medina), and the man from among us would meet him, believe in him, and teach him the Quran. He would then return to his people, and they would embrace Islam until there was not a single house among the houses of the Ansar without Muslims in it. We sent a message to Allah, and He allowed us to gather and meet. We said, "How long will the Messenger of Allah ﷺ be expelled in the mountains of Makkah and live in fear?" So we set out until we reached him in Muzdalifah during the pilgrimage season. We made an agreement with him at 'Aqabah, and his uncle, al-'Abbas, said to him, "O son of my brother, I do not know who these people who have come to you are. I have knowledge of the people of Yathrib, so we gathered with a man, and when al-'Abbas looked at our faces, he said, 'These are people we do not know. They are young men.' So we said, 'O Messenger of Allah, what do we pledge allegiance to you on?' He said, 'Pledge allegiance to me on hearing and obeying, in times of energy and times of laziness, on spending in times of ease and times of hardship, on commanding good and forbidding evil, and on not blaming us for what we do in the name of Allah. Pledge allegiance to me on supporting me when I come to you, and withholding from what you withhold from yourselves, your wives, and your children. And for you is Paradise.' So we pledged allegiance to him, and Sa'd bin Zurarah, the youngest among the seventy, took his hand and said, 'O people of Yathrib, none of us withholds his hand from this pledge, and we will never quit it.' So we went to him, each man one by one, and he took our pledge to grant us Paradise."

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَبِثَ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ يَتْبَعُ النَّاسَ فِي مَنَازِلِهِمْ فِي الْمَوْسِمِ وَمَجَنَّةِ وَعُكَاظٍ وَمَنَازِلِهِمْ مِنْ مِنَىً «مَنْ يُؤْوِينِي مَنْ يَنْصُرُنِي حَتَّى أُبَلِّغَ رِسَالَاتِ رَبِّي فَلَهُ الْجَنَّةُ؟» فَلَا يَجِدُ أَحَدًا يَنْصُرُهُ وَلَا يُؤْوِيَهُ حَتَّى إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَرْحَلُ مِنْ مِصْرَ أَوْ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ إِلَى ذِي رَحِمِهِ فَيَأْتِيهِ قَوْمُهُ فَيَقُولُونَ لَهُ احْذَرْ غُلَامَ قُرَيْشٍ لَا يَفْتِنَّنَكَ وَيَمْشِي بَيْنَ رِحَالِهِمْ يَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ ﷻ يُشِيرُونَ إِلَيْهِ بِالْأَصَابِعِ حَتَّى بَعَثَنَا اللَّهُ مِنْ يَثْرِبَ فَيَأْتِيهِ الرَّجُلُ مِنَّا فَيُؤْمِنُ بِهِ وَيُقْرِئُهُ الْقُرْآنَ فَيَنْقَلِبُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَيُسْلِمُونَ بِإِسْلَامِهِ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ دَارٌ مِنْ دُورِ الْأَنْصَارِ إِلَّا وَفِيهَا رَهْطٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يُظْهِرُونَ الْإِسْلَامَ وَبَعَثَنَا اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ فَائْتَمَرْنَا وَاجْتَمَعْنَا وَقُلْنَا حَتَّى مَتَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُطْرَدُ فِي جِبَالِ مَكَّةَ وَيَخَافُ فَرَحَلْنَا حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِي الْمَوْسِمِ فَوَاعَدَنَا بَيْعَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَمُّهُ الْعَبَّاسُ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي لَا أَدْرِي مَا هَؤُلَاءِ الْقَوْمُ الَّذِينَ جَاءُوكَ إِنِّي ذُو مَعْرِفَةٍ بِأَهْلِ يَثْرِبَ فَاجْتَمَعْنَا عِنْدَهُ مِنْ رَجُلٍ وَرَجُلَيْنِ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ الْعَبَّاسُ فِي وُجُوهِنَا قَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ قَوْمٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُمْ هَؤُلَاءِ أَحْدَاثٌ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَلَى مَا نُبَايِعُكَ؟ قَالَ «تُبَايعُونِي عَلَى السَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ فِي النَّشَاطِ وَالْكَسَلِ وَعَلَى النَّفَقَةِ فِي الْعُسْرِ وَالْيُسْرِ وَعَلَى الْأَمْرِ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْيِ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَعَلَى أَنْ تَقُولُوا فِي اللَّهِ لَا تَأْخُذْكُمْ لَوْمَةُ لَائِمٍ وَعَلَى أَنْ تَنْصُرُونِيَ إِذَا قَدِمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَتَمْنَعُونِي مِمَّا تَمْنَعُونَ عَنْهُ أَنْفُسَكُمْ وَأَزْوَاجَكُمْ وَأَبْنَاءَكُمْ وَلَكُمُ الْجَنَّةُ» فَقُمْنَا نُبَايِعُهُ وَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ أَسْعَدُ بْنُ زُرَارَةَ وَهُوَ أَصْغَرُ السَّبْعِينَ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ رُوَيْدًا يَا أَهْلَ يَثْرِبَ إِنَّا لَمْ نَضْرِبْ إِلَيْهِ أَكْبَادَ الْمَطِيِّ إِلَّا وَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَأَنَّ إِخْرَاجَهُ الْيَوْمَ مُفَارَقَةُ الْعَرَبِ كَافَّةً وَقَتْلُ خِيَارِكُمْ وَأَنَّ يَعَضَّكُمُ السَّيْفُ فَإِمَّا أَنْتُمْ قَوْمٌ تَصْبِرُونَ عَلَيْهَا إِذَا مَسَّتْكُمْ وَعَلَى قَتْلِ خِيَارِكُمْ وَمُفَارَقَةِ الْعَرَبِ كَافَّةً فَخُذُوهُ وَأَجْرُكُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَإِمَّا أَنْتُمْ تَخَافُونَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ خِيفَةً فَذَرُوهُ فَهُوَ عُذْرٌ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ ﷻ فَقَالُوا يَا أَسْعَدُ أَمِطْ عَنَّا يَدَكَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَا نَذَرُ هَذِهِ الْبَيْعَةَ وَلَا نَسْتَقِيلُهَا قَالَ فَقُمْنَا إِلَيْهِ رَجُلًا رَجُلًا فَأَخَذَ عَلَيْنَا لِيُعْطِيَنَا بِذَلِكَ الْجَنَّةَ

[Machine] We went to a funeral in the Bab Dimashq area, and with us was Abu Umamah al-Bahili. When he prayed upon the deceased and they began burying him, Abu Umamah said, "O people, you have entered a house in which you share in good deeds and bad deeds, and soon you will leave it for another abode. This indicates the grave, the house of solitude, darkness, worms, and narrowness, except for what Allah expands. Then you will move from it to the stations of the Day of Resurrection. You will be in some of these stations until a matter from the matters of Allah covers the people. Faces will turn bright and faces will turn dark, and then you will move to another house where intense darkness covers the people. Then the light will be divided, and the believer will receive light while the disbeliever and the hypocrite will not receive anything. This is a similitude that Allah, the Most High, has given in His Book, "Or like darknesses within an unfathomable sea which is covered by waves, above which are waves, above which are clouds - darknesses, some of them upon others. When one puts out his hand, he can hardly see it. And he to whom Allah has not granted light - for him there is no light." [Quran 24:40] And the disbeliever and the hypocrite will not be illuminated by the light of the believer, just as the blind person is not illuminated by the sight of the one who can see. The hypocrite says to those who believe, "Look at us and provide for us some of your light." But it is said to them, "Go back and seek light." And a wall is put up between them, with a door within it. Inside it is mercy, and outside of it is torment. They call to them, "Were we not with you?" They reply, "Yes, but you deceived yourselves and delayed, and you were deceived by false hopes until the decree of Allah came. And the Deceiver deceived you concerning Allah." [Quran 4:142] So they return to the place where the light was divided and they find nothing. They turn back to them, and there is a barrier between them. It has a door, inside of which is mercy, and from its front is punishment. They call out to them, "Weren't we with you? We used to pray with you and fight in battles alongside you." They reply, "Yes, but you caused confusion, you waited and hesitated, and false hopes deceived you, until the command of Allah came and you were deceived by Allah." [Quran 57:14] Then it recites, "And how terrible that result is!" [Quran 57:15]

[Machine] From the hadith of Amr al-Hadrami, from the people of Homs, from Abu Umamah al-Bahili, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delivered a sermon to us one day, and the majority of his sermon was about mentioning the Dajjal. He informed us about him in detail until he finished his sermon. Then, on that day, he said: "Indeed, Allah the Exalted has not sent a prophet except that he warned his nation about the Dajjal. And I am the last of the prophets, and you are the last of the nations. Surely, he is among you, there is no doubt. If he appears while I am among you, then I am the guardian of every Muslim. And if he appears among you after me, then every individual is the guardian of themselves. And Allah is my Khalifah (Caliph) over every Muslim. He will emerge from the land situated between Iraq and Sham (Greater Syria), and will roam through the east and west. O servants of Allah, be steadfast. He will start by claiming to be a prophet, even though there is no prophet after me. Then, he will claim to be your Lord, even though you have not seen your Lord until you die. And it is written between his eyes that he is a disbeliever, and every believer will be able to read it. So, whoever among you meets him should recite the opening verses of Surat Al-Kahf (Chapter of the Cave) against him. He will have control over one soul from the descendants of Adam, and he will kill it and then bring it back to life. And he will not have control over another soul besides that. He will bring with him Paradise and Hell as part of his fitnah (trial), but his Paradise will be Hell, and his Hell will be Paradise. So, whoever is afflicted with his Hellfire, let him close his eyes and seek refuge with Allah, for it will become cool and peaceful for him, just as fire was cool and peaceful for Ibrahim (Abraham), peace be upon him. And whoever meets him while believing in him and affirming his truthfulness, then let him seek rain from him. For Allah will cause the sky to rain upon them from their own day, and the Earth will bring forth for them from its own day, and their livestock will return to them fully satisfied from their own day. It will be their greatest and fattest day. But whoever meets him while disbelieving in him and rejecting him, then let him seek dryness from him. For he will not have a single drop of rain to give, and he will curse them, so that they will not have a rider or a passenger, and his days will be forty days. One of his days will be like a year, one day will be like a month, one day will be like a week, and the rest of his days will be like ordinary days." Then he (the Prophet, ﷺ) said, "A man will be at the door of Al-Madinah, and he will reach the other end of the city before evening comes." They asked, "How should we pray, O Messenger of Allah, in those short days?" He said, "Estimate the time (according to the length of the day) and then pray as you would in the longer days."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I know what the Antichrist (Dajjal) has with him. He has two rivers, one fire that appears as blazing flames to anyone who sees it, and the other is water that appears white. So if any of you can find him, let him close his eyes and drink the water that appears as fire, for it is actually cool water. Beware of the other river, for it is the tribulation. Know that it is written between his eyes that he is a disbeliever, which can be read by those who can read and even those who cannot read. And know that one of his eyes is wiped over which a mark is left, and from that mark he will emerge towards the end of his affair on the outskirts of the Jordan River, near his house. He will awake and everyone who believes in Allah and the Last Day will be in the vicinity of the Jordan River. And know that he will kill one-third of the Muslims, defeat one-third, and leave one-third. The night will befall them, and some of the believers will say to others, 'What are you waiting for to join your brothers for the sake of pleasing your Lord? So whoever has extra food, let him feed his brother. Pray when dawn breaks and hurry in performing the prayer, then face your enemy.' When they stand for prayer, Jesus, the son of Mary, peace be upon him, will descend to lead them in prayer. After he finishes, he will say, 'This is how you should relieve yourselves from the enemy of Allah.' Abu Hazim said, 'He will melt like salt melts in water.' Abdullah ibn Amr said, 'He will vanish like salt dissolves in water.' Allah will give victory to the Muslims, and they will kill their enemies until even the rocks and the trees will call, 'O Abdullah, O slave of the Most Merciful, O Muslim, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.' So Allah will expose the Muslims, and they will break the cross, kill the swine, and abolish the jizya (tax on non-Muslims). While they are in this state, Allah will bring forth Gog and Magog. They will drink from the lake at the beginning, and the last of them will pass by it and say, 'We have defeated our enemies, here is a trace of water.' Then the Prophet of Allah ﷺ and his companions will follow them until they enter one of the cities in Palestine called Lud. They will say, 'We have defeated those on earth, let us fight those in the sky.' At that moment, Allah will send a disease upon them, opening up boils in their necks, and none of them will remain except that their stench will harm the Muslims. At that point, Jesus, peace be upon him, will call upon Allah, and Allah will send a wind that will throw them into the sea, all of them."

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ stayed for ten years, tracing people in their homes during the season, in Muhjanah, 'Ukaz, and in their homes in Mina. He would say, 'Who will shelter me and support me until I deliver the messages of my Lord, and Paradise will be his?' But he ﷺ did not find anyone to support or shelter him until a man would leave Egypt or Yemen and his people would come to him and say, 'Beware of the Quraysh boy who walks among their caravans, inviting them to Allah.' They would point him out until Allah sent to him someone from Yathrib (Madina). The man would come to him, believe in him, and recite the Qur'an to him. Then he would return to his people, and they would embrace Islam until there was not a single house in Yathrib without a group of Muslims openly practicing Islam. They (the Muslims) consulted with each other and said, 'How long will the Messenger of Allah ﷺ be expelled and in fear in the mountains of Makkah?' So we set off until we reached him during the season. The people of 'Aqabah promised him and 'Abbas, his uncle, addressed the people of Yathrib, saying, 'O people of Yathrib, we gathered with him by a man and two men. When he looked at our faces, he said, 'These are people I don't know, they are young people.' We said, 'O Messenger of Allah, what do you want us to pledge allegiance to you upon?' He said, 'Pledge allegiance to me upon hearing and obeying, in times of ease and difficulty, in matters of expenditure and hardship, and in commanding good and forbidding evil. And that you do not reproach me about Allah if you are not pleased with something, and that you support me when I come to you, denying me what you deny yourselves, your wives, and your children. Paradise will be yours.' So we pledged allegiance to him, and he took the hand of As'ad bin Zurarah, who was the youngest of the seventy except me. He said, 'O people of Yathrib, we never struck the liver of any animal except that we knew he was the Messenger of Allah, and his expulsion today is the separation of all the Arab tribes, and the killing of your best men. If you wish, you bear this burden and the reward will be with Allah, and if you fear for your own selves, leave him alone, for he is the most deserving to be excused before Allah.' They said, 'O As'ad, remove your hand from us. By Allah, we will not abandon this pledge nor break it.' So a man stood up and took the hand of 'Abbas, and guaranteed its fulfillment with Paradise.

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَبِثَ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ يَتَتَبَّعُ النَّاسَ فِي مَنَازِلِهِمْ فِي الْمَوْسِمِ وَمَجَنَّةَ وَعُكَاظٍ وَفِي مَنَازِلِهِمْ بِمِنًى يَقُولُ «مَنْ يُؤْوِينِي وَيَنْصُرُنِي حَتَّى أُبَلِّغَ رِسَالَاتِ رَبِّي وَلَهُ الْجَنَّةُ؟ » فَلَا يَجِدُ ﷺ أَحَدًا يَنْصُرُهُ وَلَا يُؤْوِيهِ حَتَّى إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَرْحَلُ مِنْ مِصْرَ أَوْ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ إِلَى ذِي رَحِمِهِ فَيَأْتِيهِ قَوْمُهُ فَيَقُولُونَ لَهُ احْذَرْ غُلَامَ قُرَيْشٍ لَا يَفْتِنْكَ وَيَمْشِي بَيْنَ رِحَالِهِمْ يَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ فَيُشِيرُونَ إِلَيْهِ بِالْأَصَابِعِ حَتَّى بَعَثَنَا اللَّهُ لَهُ مِنْ يَثْرِبَ فَيَأْتِيهِ الرَّجُلُ فَيُؤْمِنُ بِهِ وَيُقْرِئُهُ الْقُرْآنَ فَيَنْقَلِبُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَيُسْلِمُونَ بِإِسْلَامِهِ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ دَارٌ مِنْ دُورِ يَثْرِبَ إِلَّا وَفِيهَا رَهْطٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يُظْهِرُونَ الْإِسْلَامَ فَائْتَمَرَنَا وَاجْتَمَعْنَا فَقُلْنَا حَتَّى مَتَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُطْرَدُ فِي جِبَالِ مَكَّةَ وَيَخَافُ؟ فَرَحَلْنَا حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِي الْمَوْسِمِ فَوَاعَدَنَا شِعْبَ الْعَقَبَةِ فَقَالَ عَمُّهُ الْعَبَّاسُ يَا * أَهْلِ يَثْرِبَ فَاجْتَمَعْنَا عِنْدَهُ مِنْ رَجُلٍ وَرَجُلَيْنِ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ * فِي وجُوهِنَا قَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ قَوْمٌ لَا أَعْرِفُهُمْ هَؤُلَاءِ أَحْدَاثٌ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَلَى مَا نُبَايِعُكَ؟ قَالَ «تُبَايعُونِي عَلَى السَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ فِي النَّشَاطِ وَالْكَسَلِ وَعَلَى النَّفَقَةِ فِي الْعُسْرِ وَالْيُسْرِ وَعَلَى الْأَمْرِ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْيِ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَعَلَى أَنْ تَقُولُوا فِي اللَّهِ لَا يَأْخُذْكُمْ فِي اللَّهِ لَوْمَةُ لَائِمٍ وَعَلَى أَنْ تَنْصُرُونِي إِذَا قَدِمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَتَمْنَعُونِي مَا تَمْنَعُونَ مِنْهُ أَنْفُسَكُمْ وَأَزْوَاجَكُمْ وَأَبْنَاءَكُمْ فَلَكُمُ الْجَنَّةُ» فَقُمْنَا نُبَايِعُهُ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ أَسْعَدُ بْنُ زُرَارَةَ وَهُوَ أَصْغَرُ السَّبْعِينَ إِلَّا أَنَا قَالَ رُوَيْدًا يَا أَهْلَ يَثْرِبَ إِنَّا لَمْ نَضْرِبْ إِلَيْهِ أَكْبَادَ الْمَطِيِّ إِلَّا وَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَإِنَّ إِخْرَاجَهُ الْيَوْمَ مُفَارَقَةُ الْعَرَبِ كَافَّةً وَقَتْلَ خِيَارِكُمْ وَأَنْ تَعَضَّكُمُ السُّيُوفُ فَإِمَّا أَنْتُمْ قَوْمٌ تَصْبِرُونَ عَلَيْهَا إِذَا مَسَّتْكُمْ وَعَلَى قَتْلِ خِيَارِكُمْ وَمُفَارَقَةِ الْعَرَبِ كَافَّةً فَخُذُوهُ وَأَجْرُكُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَإِمَّا أَنْتُمْ تَخَافُونَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ خِيفَةً فَذَرُوهُ فَهُوَ أَعْذَرُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ قَالُوا يَا أَسْعَدُ أَمِطْ عَنَّا يَدَكَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَا نَذَرُ هَذِهِ الْبَيْعَةَ وَلَا نَسْتَقِيلُهَا قَالَ فَقُمْنَا إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ رَجُلٌ فَأَخَذَ عَلَيْنَا شَرِيطَةَ الْعَبَّاسِ وَضَمِنَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ الْجَنَّةَ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stayed in Mecca for seven years, following the people to their homes in Okaz, Majannah, and the seasons in Mina. He would say, "Who will provide shelter and support me until I convey the messages of my Lord?" Even the people from Yemen or Egypt would come to him, and their clans would warn them, saying, "Beware of the boy from Quraysh who may deceive you." He would walk among them as they pointed at him with their fingers. Then Allah sent support from Yathrib and we provided him refuge and believed in him. The man would leave us, and upon returning to his people he would deliver Islam to them, and they would embrace it until there was no house left in the houses of the Ansar without some Muslims living in it, openly practicing Islam. Then we gathered and said, "How long will we let the Prophet ﷺ be expelled and live in fear in the mountains of Mecca?" So seventy of us set out until we reached him during the pilgrimage season, and we pledged allegiance to him at Al-Aqaba. We said, "O Messenger of Allah, for what reason should we pledge allegiance to you?" He said, "Pledge allegiance to me to listen and obey in times of energy or laziness, hardship or ease, to spend in times of difficulty or abundance, to enjoy what is good and forbid what is evil, and to not care about the blame of the blamers, and to support and protect me just as you would protect yourselves, your wives, and your children, and Paradise will be yours." So we stood up and pledged allegiance to him. Sa'd ibn Zurarah, the youngest among us, held his hand and said, "O people of Yathrib, we have not even struck the backs of camels unless we knew that he is the Messenger of Allah, and that his expulsion today is a dispute for all the Arabs, and the killing of your best men, and the swords are about to reach you. So either you endure that and your reward will be with Allah, or you fear for yourselves and show your weakness. Clarify your choice, for it is easier for you." They said, "Remove this doubt, for by Allah, we will never abandon this pledge." So we pledged allegiance to him, and he placed conditions for us to be given Paradise in return.

[Machine] She heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , while he was among his companions saying, "I warn you against the False Messiah (Antichrist) and I warn you about him as every prophet has warned his people about him. He will appear among you, O Ummah, and I will narrate to you his description in a way that no prophet before me has narrated to his people. He will remain on the earth for forty days, during which the first day will be like a year, the second day like a month, the third day like a week, and the rest of the days like your normal days. He will have one eye and Allah is not one-eyed. Between his eyes will be written the word 'kafir' (disbeliever), and every believer, literate or illiterate, will be able to read it. He will cause the sky to rain even when it is not raining and he will cause the earth to grow vegetation even when it is not fertile. He will say to the Bedouins, 'What do you want from me? Did I not send down rain upon you abundantly? Did I not revive your livestock and provide you with milk?' He will be accompanied by devils in the form of deceased fathers, brothers, and relatives. They will come to one of their loved ones and say, 'Do you not recognize me? Do you not know who I am?' It will be said to them, 'He is your Lord so follow him.' He will live among you for forty years: the first year will be like a month, the second year like a week, the third year like a day, the fourth year like an hour, and the rest of the years will pass quickly. And he will destroy every inhabited land except the two Sacred Mosques (Makkah and Madinah). Then the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , performed ablution, and he heard the weeping and sobbing of the people. He returned to them and stood among them and said, 'Rejoice! If the False Messiah appears while I am among you, then Allah, His Messenger, and the believers with suffice you. But if he appears after me, then Allah will be my Successor upon every Muslim.'"

أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَيْ أَصْحَابِهِ يَقُولُ أُحَذِّرُكُمُ الْمَسِيحَ وَأُنْذِرُكُمُوهُ وَكُلُّ نَبِيٍّ قَدْ حَذَّرَ قَوْمَهُ وَهُوَ فِيكُمْ أَيَّتُهَا الْأُمَّةُ وسَأَحْكِي لَكُمْ مِنْ نَعْتِهِ مَا لَمْ يَحْكِ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ قَبْلِي لِقَوْمِهِمْ يَكُونُ قَبْلَ خُرُوجِهِ سِنُونَ خَمْسٌ جَدَبٌ حَتَّى يَهْلِكَ كُلُّ ذِي حَافِرٍ فَنَادَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَبِمَ يَعِيشُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ؟ قَالَ بِمَا يَعِيشُ بِهِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ وَهُوَ أَعْوَرٌ وَلَيْسَ اللهُ بِأَعْوَرَ وَبَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ كَافِرٌ يَقْرَؤُهُ كُلُّ مُؤْمِنٍ كَاتَبٍ وَغَيْرِ كَاتَبٍ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ يَتْبَعُهُ الْيَهُودُ وَالنِّسَاءُ وَالْأَعْرَابُ يَرَوْنَ السَّمَاءَ تُمْطِرُ وَهِيَ لَا تُمْطِرُ وَالْأَرْضَ تُنْبِتُ وَهِيَ لَا تُنْبِتُ وَيَقُولُ لِلْأَعْرَابِ مَا تَبْغُونَ مِنِّي؟ أَلَمْ أُرْسِلِ السَّمَاءَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِدْرَارًا؟ وَأُحْيِي لَكُمْ أَنْعَامَكُمْ شَاخِصَةً دُرَاهَا خَارِجَةً خَوَاصِرُهَا دَارَةً أَلْبَانِهَا؟ وَتُبْعَثُ مَعَهُ الشَّيَاطِينُ عَلَى صُورَةِ مَنْ قَدْ مَاتَ مِنَ الْآبَاءِ وَالْإِخْوَانِ وَالْمَعَارِفِ فَيَأْتِي أَحَدُهُمْ إِلَى أَبِيهِ أَوْ أَخِيهِ أَوْ ذَوِي رَحِمِهِ فَيَقُولُ أَلَسْتَ فُلَانًا؟ أَلَسْتَ تَعْرِفُنِي؟ هُوَ رَبُّكَ فَاتَّبِعْهُ يَعْمُرُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً السَّنَةَ الْأُولَى كَالشَّهْرِ وَالشَّهْرِ كَالْجُمُعَةِ وَالْجُمُعَةِ كَالْيَوْمِ وَالْيَوْمِ كَالسَّاعَةِ وَالسَّاعَةِ كَاحْتِرَاقِ السَّعَفَةِ فِي النَّارِ يَرِدُ كُلَّ مَنْهَلٍ إِلَّا الْمَسْجِدَيْنِ ثُمَّ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَتَوَضَّأُ فَسَمِعَ بُكَاءَ النَّاسِ وَشَهِيقَهُمْ فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَامَ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِهِمْ فَقَالَ «أَبْشِرُوا فَإِنْ يَخْرُجْ وَأَنَا بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِكُمْ فَاللهُ كَافِيَكُمْ وَرَسُولُهُ وَإِنْ يَخْرُجْ بَعْدِي فَاللهُ خَلِيفَتِي عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stayed with the pilgrims in their dwellings for ten years during the seasons of Mijannah, 'Ukaz, and their dwellings in Mina. He asked, "Who will provide refuge and support me until I deliver the messages of my Lord? For him is Paradise." However, he did not find anyone who would provide refuge and support him, until a man from Makkah or Yemen would enter his companion's dwelling, and his people or relatives would warn him, saying, "Beware of this young man from Quraysh, he will harm you. He walks among your bags and invites you to Allah, pointing at him with his finger." Then Allah sent a man from Yathrib who believed in him and recited the Quran to him. He returned to his people and they embraced Islam until there was no house left in Yathrib except that it had a group of Muslims who openly declared their faith. Then Allah sent for him and we met and gathered seventy of us and said, "How long will the Messenger of Allah be driven away in the mountains of Makkah and fear? So we traveled until we reached him during the season. We made an appointment with the people of 'Aqabah and gathered there one man, then two men, until we met him there. We said, "O Messenger of Allah, why should we pledge allegiance to you?" He replied, "Pledge allegiance to me in hearing and obedience, in times of ease and difficulty, in hardship and ease, in commanding the good and forbidding the evil, and that you will not blame me for the sake of Allah, regardless of what happens. And that you will support me if I come to you in Yathrib and will protect me from that which you protect yourselves, your wives, and your children. And for you is Paradise." So we said, "We pledge allegiance to you." He took the hand of As'ad bin Zurarah, the youngest of the seventy men except me, and said, "O people of Yathrib, we have not struck the liver of a camel except that we knew that he is the Messenger of Allah and that his leaving today means the separation of all the Arabs and the killing of your best men. And the swords will bite you. But as for you, you are a people who can bear the biting of swords, the killing of your best men, and the separation of all the Arabs. Take him, and your reward is with Allah. But as for you, you fear for yourselves and hesitate, so leave him. He is the most careful for your sake in the sight of Allah." So they said, "Hold your hand, O As'ad bin Zurarah. By Allah, we will not abandon this pledge nor will we resign from it." So we stood up and approached him, one by one, agreeing to his conditions and receiving the promise of Paradise in return.

"عَنْ عُمَرَ قَالَ: كُنْتُ جَالِسًا مَعَ أَبِى جَهْلٍ وَشَيْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، فَقَالَ أبو جَهْلٍ: يَا مَعْشَرَ قُرَيْشٍ! إنَّ محمدًا قد شَتَمَ آلهَتكُمْ، وَسَفَّهَ أَحْلَامَكُمْ، وَزَعَمَ أَنَّ مَنْ مَضَى مِنْ آبَائِكُمْ يَتَهَافَتُونَ فيِ النارِ، أَلَا وَمَنْ قَتَلَ محمدًا فَلَهُ علىَّ مائةُ نَاقَةٍ حَمْرَاءَ وَسوداءَ، وَأَلفُ أُوقيَّةٍ من فِضَّةٍ، فَخَرجتُ مُتَقَلِّدًا السَّيفَ مُتنكِّبًا كِنَانَتى أرِيدُ النَّبِىَّ ﷺ فمررْتُ عَلَى عجْلٍ يَذبَحُونَهُ، فَقُمْتُ أنظرُ إليهِمْ، فَإِذَا صَائِحٌ يَصيحُ، مِن جَوْفِ العِجل: يا آلَ ذُرَيْحٍ! أمرٌ نَجِيحٌ، رَجُلٌ يصيحُ، بِلسانٍ فَصيحٍ، يدْعُو إِلَى شَهَادَةِ أن لا إِلَهَ إِلَّا الله وأن محمدًا رسُولُ اللهِ، فَعلمتُ أنهُ أرَادَنِي، ثُمَّ مررتُ بغنَمٍ فإِذَا هَاتفٌ يهتِفُ يقولُ:
يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ذَوُو الأَجْسَامِ ... مَا أَنتمُ وطائِشُ الأَحْلَامِ
وَمُسْنِدُو الحكم إلى الأصنام ... فَكُلُّكُمْ أَرَاهُ كالأنْعامِ
أَمَا تَرَوْنَ مَا أَرَى أَمَامِى ... من سَاطِعٍ يَجْلُو دُجَى الظَّلَامِ
قَدْ لَاحَ للناظِرِ من تهامِ ... أكْرِمْ به الله من إمامِ
قَدْ جاء بعد الكفرِ بالإِسلام ... والبرِّ والصِّلَاتِ للأرْحامِ
فقلت: والله ما أراه إلا أرادنى، ثم مررتُ بِالضِّمَارِ، فَإِذا هَاتفٌ من جوفِهِ:
تُرِكَ الضِّمَارُ وَكَانَ يُعْبَدُ وحدَهُ ... بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ مَعَ النبيِّ محمدِ
إن الذي وَرِثَ النبوةَ والهدى ... بعد ابنِ مريمَ من قريش مُهتدِ
سيقولُ من عَبَدَ الضمارَ ومثلَهُ ... لَيتَ الضِّمارَ ومثلَهُ لم يُعْبَدِ
فَاصْبِرْ أبا حفصٍ فإِنَّكَ آمِنٌ ... يأتيكَ عِزٌّ غيرُ عِزِّ بَنِى عَدِى
لا تَعْجَلَنَّ فأنتَ ناصِرُ دينهُ ... حقًا يَقِينًا بِالِّلسَانِ وباليد
فوالله: لقد علمتُ أنهُ أرادَنِي، فجئتُ حتى دَخلتُ على أُخْتِي فإِذَا خَبابُ بن الأرت عندها وزوجُها، فقال خبابٌ: وَيْحَكَ يا عُمرُ أَسْلِمْ، فَدعوتُ بالماءِ فتوَضَّأتُ، ثمَّ خرجتُ إلى النبي ﷺ فقالَ لِي: قد استُجيبَ ليِ فِيكَ يا عمرُ، أسلم، فأسلمتُ وكنتُ رابعَ أربعينَ رجلًا ممن أسلم، ونزلَتْ {يَاأَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ حَسْبُكَ اللَّهُ وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَكَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ} ".

"أَنَا أعلم بما مع الدجال منه؛ معه نهران أَحدهما نار تأَجَّجُ في عين من رآه، والآخر ماءٌ أبيض، فإِن أدركه أَحد منكم فليُغْمِضْ وليشرب من الذى يراه نارا فإِنه ماءٌ باردٌ، وإِيّاكم والآخرَ فإِنهُ الفتنة واعلموا أَنه مكتوبٌ بين عينيه كْافرٌ، يقرؤه من يكتب ومن لا يكتب، وإِن إِحدى عينيه ممسوحةٌ عليها طفرةٌ. إنَّه يطلع من آخرِ أَمره على بطن الأردن على ثَنِيَّة أَفيقٍ، وكلُّ أحد يؤْمِنُ باللَّهِ واليومِ الآخرِ ببطن الأردن. وإِنَّهُ يقتلُ من المسلمين ثُلثًا ويهزمُ ثُلُثًا ويبْقى ثلث، وبجِنُّ عليهم اللَّيْلُ فيقول بعضُ المؤْمنين لبعض: ما تنتظرون أن تلحقوا بإِخوانكم في مرضاة ربكم، من كان عنده فَضْلُ طعامٍ فليَعُدْ به على أخيه، وصلَّوا حين ينفجرُ الفجرُ، وعجِّلوا الصلاة ثم أقبلوا على عدوِّكم، فلمَّا قاموا يصلُّون نزلَ عيسى بن مريم أقَامهم فصلَّى بهم، فلَمَّا انصرف قال: هكذا فرجوا بينى وبين عدوِّ اللَّه، فيذوب كما تذوب الإِهالة في الشَّمس، وسلَّط اللَّه تعالى المسلمين فيقتلونهم، حتَّى إِنَّ الشَّجَرَ والحجرَ لينادى يا عبد اللَّه، يا عبد الرحمن، يا مسلم. هذا يهودى فاقْتُله، فيفنيهم اللَّهُ ويظهرُ المسلمون فيكسرون الصَّليبَ ويقتلون الخنزير ويضعون الجزية، فبينما هم كذلك أَخرج اللَّه يأجوج ومأجوج فيشربُ أَولهم البحيرة ويجئُ آخرهم وقد انتشفوه فما يدعون فيه قَطرَة فيقولون ظهرنا على أَعدائنا قد كان هاهنا أثر ما، فيجئُ نبىُّ اللَّه وأَصحابه وراءَه حتى يدخلوا مدينة من مدائن فلسطين يقال لها: لُدُّ فيقولون ظهرنا على من في الأَرض فتعالوا نقاتل من في السَّماءِ فيدعو اللَّه نبيُّهُ عند ذلك فيبعثُ اللَّه عليهم قُرْحَةً في حلوقهم فلا يَبقى منهم بشَرٌ، فيؤذى ريحهم المسلمين فيدعو عيسى فيرسِلُ اللَّه عليهم ريحًا فيقذفهم في البحر أَجمعين" .

"قَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ : يَخْرُجُ الدَّجَّالُ عَدُوُّ الله ومَعَهُ جُنُودٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ وَأَصْنَافِ النَّاسِ، مَعَهُ جَنَّةٌ وَنَارٌ، وَرِجَالٌ يَقْتُلُهُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيهِمْ، مَعَهُ جَبَلٌ مِنْ ثَرِيدٍ وَنَهْرٌ مِنْ مَاءٍ، وإنِّى سَأَنْعَتُ لَكُم نَعْتَهُ، إِنَّهُ يَخْرُجُ مَمْسُوحَ الْعَيْنِ، فِى جَبْهتِهِ مَكْتُوبٌ كَافِرٌ يَقْرَؤُهُ كُلُّ مَنْ يُحْسِنُ الْكِتَابَ، وَمَنْ لَا يُحْسِنُ، فَجَنَّتُهُ نَارٌ، وَنَارُهُ جَنَّةٌ، وَهُوَ الْمَسِيحُ الْكَذَّابُ، وَتَتْبَعُهُ مِنْ نسَاءِ الْيَهُود ثَلاثَ عَشْرَةَ أَلْفَ امْرَأَةٍ، فَرَحِمَ الله رَجُلًا مَنَعَ سَفِيهَهُ أَنْ يَتْبَعَهُ، وَالْقُوَّةُ عَلَيْه يَوْمَئِذٍ بالْقُرْآنِ، فَإنَّ شَأَنَهُ بَلَاءٌ شَدِيدٌ يَبْعَثُ الشَّيَاطِينَ مِنْ مَشَارِق الأَرْضِ وَمَغَارِبِهَا، فَيَقُولُونَ لَهُ: اسْتَعِنْ بَنَا عَلَى مَا شِئْتَ، فَيَقُولُ: نَعَمْ انْطَلِقُوا فَأَخْبِرُوا النَّاسَ أَنِّى
