Abstract: ... bu Daud and Shafi'e. He narrates a fabricated collection of hadith. 7, pg. 38/39 "You will fight the Romans ..." Fabricated. Same reasons as the previous one. Reported by al- Bazzar, KS: 3386. 2nd paragraph, pg. 39 "The building of Bayt al-Maqdis ..." Hasan, MT: 5424. 8, pg. 39 ".. Dajjal will not be able to enter Madinah ..." Hasan. Chapter 10 2, pg. 41 "Just before the Hour ..." Ahmad's isnad contains Ibn Lahi'ah who reports by way of `an, as does Abu Zubair. Al-Bazzar's isnad contains `Abdur- Rahman ibn Maghra and Mujahid ibn Sa`id. MZ: 7/335. [Compiler's note]: we don't know what the status of the hadith is - no muhaddith (as far as we know) has given a definite verdict. 4, pg. 41 "The Hour will not come until thirty 'dajjals' appear ..." Sahih. 5, pg. 41 "The Hour will not come ..." Hasan, SHD: 3643. 6, pg. 41 "Just before the Hour ..." Sahih, SS: 1683. 7, pg. 41/42 "There will be 'dajjals' ..." Da`if isnad, but Muslim reports similar wording. 8, pg. 42 "There will be thirty liars ..." Sahih[??] wrong reference, op. cit. 5/46, should be op. cit. 5/278. 9, pg. 42 "Verily before the Day of Resurrection ..." Hasan, SS: 1683, MA: 5694. 4th paragraph, pg. 42 "Among my Ummah there will be more than seventy callers ..." Da`if. Reported by Abu Ya'la. Its isnad contains Laith ibn Abi Sulaim. 10, pg. 42 "... as for this man about whom you have spoken so much-he is one of the thirty liars who will appear before the Hour, and there is no town that will not feel the fear of the Antichrist." Sahih, MZ: 7/335. 11, pg. 42 "He is one of the thirty liars who will appear before the Dajjal. There is no town which will escape the fear of the Dajjal, apart from Madinah ..." Sahih, MA: 5/41. It is part of no. 10 above, which is not given in full in the book. 12, pg. 42 "The time of the Dajjal will be years of confusion ... the Rubiwaybidah will have a say ... those who rebel against Allah and will have a say in general affairs." Sahih. Its isnad is hasan and is further supported, SS: 1887, KS: 3373. Chapter 12 3, pg. 51/52 "The Dajjal will appear at the end of time, when religion is taken lightly ..." Da`if. SD: 1969. It contains the `an`anah of Abu Zubair. Parts are found in authentic narrations. Refer to Dajjal section in Sahih Muslim. Chapter 14 1, pg. 58/59 "... for three years before the Dajjal emerges, the people will suffer severe hunger ..." Da`if. DM: 884. Parts are supported. Chapter 16 1, pg. 66 "The Dajjal will emerge in a land in the east called Khurasan ..." Sahih, SM: 4072. 2, pg. 66/67 "During the three years just before the Dajjal comes, there will be one year when the sky will withhold one-third of its rain and the earth one-third of its fruits ..." Da`if, MT: 5491. Its isnad contains Sharh ibn Hawshab, who is weak. Chapter 18 2nd paragraph, pg. 70 "... the Dajjal's kunyah (nickname) would be Abu Yusuf." Reported as the saying of ash-Sha'bi. The reporter, Mujahid ibn Sa'id is weak. 3rd paragraph, pg. 70 "The Dajjal's parents will remain childless for thirty years ... woman." Da`if, MT: 6445. 1, pg. 70 "We heard that a child had been born to some of the Jews in Madinah ..." Da`if due to Ali ibn Zaid ibn Jad'an. 2, pg. 72 "The son of Mary will kill the Dajjal at the gate of Ludd." Sahih, ST: 1829. Chapter 19 2, pg. 74 "The son of Mary will come down as a just leader ..." The Tabi'e is Ziyad ibn Sa'd, who is mentioned by Ibn Hibban in ath-Thiqat al-Bukhari and Abu Hatim did not speak for nor against him. Ibn Kathir says the report is good and strong. 4, pg. 74/75 "The Prophets are like brothers: they have different mothers but their religion is one ..." Sahih as declared by al-Hakim and adh-Dhahabi. Qatadah's hearing it is reported in a later narration in al-Musnad 2/436. 5, pg. 75 "On the night of the Isra' ..." Da`if, DJ: 4709. See Sahih Muslim translation, no. 6924.

Chapter 22 2, pg. 79 "Dhu'l-Suwayqatayn from Abyssinia will destroy the Ka`bah and steal its treasure and Kiswah ..." Da`if isnad. It contains the `an`anah of Abu Zubair. The first part, up to 'treasure' is hasan, SS: 771. 3, pg. 79 "Leave the Abyssinians alone so long as they do not disturb you ..." Hasan, SHD: 4, pg. 79/80 "It is as if I can see him now: he is black and his legs are widely spaced ..." Sahih, also reported in al-Bukhari... [Full Article...]
