Allah says
﴿أَحَسِبَ النَّاسُ أَنْ يُتْرَكُوا أَنْ يَقُولُوا آمَنَّا وَهُمْ لَا يُفْتَنُونَ * وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ فَلَيَعْلَمَنَّ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ صَدَقُوا وَلَيَعْلَمَنَّ الْكَاذِبِينَ﴾ [العنكبوت: 2، 3]
Do people think that they will be left to say, “We believe” and they will not be tested? But We did test those before them, and Allah will surely make evident those who are truthful, and He will surely make evident the liars. [Al-Ankabut: 2-3]
The Comment
The Germans in East Berlin before the annexation to West Germany wrote in a museum on an empty wall with nothing on it (Life is not easy) so that if they left this small museum to the big museum (the world) and found the amount of racism, harm and inhumane treatment of some people by others, they would ruminate this sentence (Life is not easy) from within their conscious mind, meaning that the room with this sentence and the wall are also empty, so that their eyes and minds are not drawn to any distractions. Now: Are the Germans Muslims? Some of them are Muslims, of course, but you must know that they are right, life is not easy, it is not fair and it is based on testing, and this was leaked to us about 1446 years ago, as we were told in the leak (Do people think that they will be left to say, “We believe” and they will not be tested?) That is, do not imagine or expect or think in the first place that you will not be tested according to the degree of your faith in God, a test from God Almighty and Himself. Are you saying what you do not understand? Are you memorizing and not applying? Or is your inside like your outside, and you may have said, what does God Almighty benefit from these severe tests that sometimes come individually and sometimes in groups, as long as He is aware of what is going on in our souls? Are you a teacher? Did you enter the first day of class and learn from a few questions who will excel in this class and who will fail and who? Of course, if you are capable of knowing the characters and your academic subject, so if you put the result on this preconceived judgment, wouldn't their parents come to you and compete to harm you? Of course, people don't like to be punished arbitrarily or on the basis of a preconceived judgment. Rather, there must be a practical test, a result, and an exam paper, and all the students around you can testify that you took this school test
Now
whether you believe or not, is now clear after the test, and in front of everyone. You will not be able to argue tomorrow when you are presented to God (and man is most disputatious of all things)
Now also
Why this talk when we are talking about the Antichrist, the greatest tribulation that some people have experienced and will experience, God knows who and when he will be exposed to it, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Between the creation of Adam and the Day of Resurrection, there is nothing greater than the tribulation of the Antichrist, As for why Allah the Blessed and Exalted afflicts us with such a great type of tribulation and why did it not come while the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was among us? So he could defend us, oppose him and defeat him. The answer is simple: Do you know today how many earthly religions there are in 2023? (There are an estimated 10,000 religions around the world, but about 84% of the world’s population belongs to one of the five largest religious groups, which are Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and finally forms of popular religion.) Each of these earthly religions, of course, has a messenger, a god, a holy book, and rituals. The idea that you stand out and say, “I am a Muslim, I am a believer,” simply because you inherited that on your ID card from your father and mother, will pass unnoticed at the time of reckoning and the reward of deeds, not for God Almighty, but for these millions of people when they are presented to God Almighty. This is an unacceptable idea. Think about it: a great presentation, people from every corner and direction, with different mental backgrounds, colors, races, and religions, and you stand and say to God Almighty, “I believed in you and let me enter paradise, If you don't have a test paper, will all those who enter Hell make you pass easily by them so that you win and they lose? The trials of the end of time must be great, because the greatness of what we see and witness day and night of mental and religious doubts makes the wise person bewildered by them (extending life or transhuman - including The cloning and the doubt of reviving the dead and creation by genetic engineering and designer children and scientific robots and hybridization of humans with robots and hybridization of humans with animals ... and this is within the limits of our limited knowledge) Whoever believes without a personal ID card in the midst of these tribulations, we will testify to his faith until he undergoes a very personal test. The most important thing is that you do not be surprised by what you will read shortly about the story of the Antichrist and his tribulation, which, by the way, is present in all heavenly religions. So let us begin...
Why is he called the Al - Dajjal ?
The Antichrist is a misleading person who will appear to people at the end of time. The word Antichrist comes from the word “dajjal” which means lying. It is an exaggeration of an active participle, and its meaning is a lot of lying.
The stability or fading of the faith
The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “There are three things, if they appear, faith will not benefit a soul that did not believe before, or did not earn any good through its faith: the rising of the sun from the west, the Antichrist, and the beast of the earth.” Narrated by Muslim on the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him.
The question of the early Muslims about who is the Antichrist
On the authority of Al-Nawwas bin Sam’an, may God be pleased with him, that he, may God bless him and grant him peace, mentioned the Antichrist one morning, and he spoke in a low and high tone about him, until we thought he was among a group of palm trees. When we went to him, he recognized that in us, and he said: “What is the matter with you?” We said: O Messenger of God, you mentioned the Antichrist one morning, so , you lowered him and raised him, until we thought he was among the palm trees, then he said: ((Other than the Antichrist, I fear for you. If he emerges while I am among you, then I will be his opponent on your behalf. And if he emerges while I am not among you, then a man is his own opponent, and Allah is my successor over every Muslim)); narrated by Muslim and others.
Is he from the children of Adam or from another race?
yes, he is from the children of Adam PBUH
The Specifications of the Antichrist
A man from the sons of Adam who has many characteristics that were mentioned in the noble prophetic hadiths to inform people of his reality and warn them of his evil, so that when he comes out, the sincere believers will recognize him and not be tempted by him; rather, they will be aware of his characteristics that the Messenger of the Ummah, may God bless him and grant him peace, informed us about from his Lord, may He be glorified and exalted. These characteristics distinguish him from other people, so no one will be tempted by him except the ignorant who has been afflicted with misery and torment from God. We ask God Almighty to protect us from his plot and temptation. Among these characteristics that the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, informed us about is that he is:
A red man
Short, bald-headed
Curly-headed
High-foreheaded
Broad-chested
His right eye is wiped out
And his left eye has thick flesh on it
Written between his eyes is infidel
Every Muslim, whether he writes or not, can read it
He is sterile and will not have children
The evidence from the Sunnah
On the authority of Ibn Umar, may God be pleased with him, that the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, mentioned the Antichrist among the people and said: “God is not one-eyed. Beware, the Antichrist is blind in his right eye, as if his eye were a floating grape.” Agreed upon.
On the authority of Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said
((As for the Messiah of misguidance, he is one-eyed, has a broad forehead, a broad neck, and is warm, as if he were Qatan ibn Abd al-Uzza)), he said: O Messenger of Allah, does his resemblance harm me? He said: ((No, you are a Muslim, and he is a disbeliever)); Narrated by Ahmad and authenticated by Al-Albani. On the authority of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “The Dajjal will have a swollen eye, and written between his eyes is ‘disbeliever’,” then he spelled it as K-F-R (every Muslim will read it); agreed upon.
From which country will he emerge at the end of time?
On the authority of Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said
“The Dajjal will emerge from a land in the East called Khurasan, followed by people whose faces are like Megan Metrqah” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi and others, and authenticated by al-Albani. Megan Metrqah: the shields made of leather, used to protect against sword blows in war, and the hammer: the thick one that was placed layer upon layer, and what is meant is that their faces are thick, round, and full of flesh.
On the authority of Anas bin Malik, may God be pleased with him, who said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
((The Antichrist will emerge from the Jewish city of Isfahan, with seventy thousand Jews wearing fences with him)) Narrated by Ahmad and authenticated by Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar, may God have mercy on them both. Isfahan: Isfahan or Isbahan is one of the cities of Iran and the center of Isfahan Province, 340 km south of Tehran. Isfahan has a Hera place (Hera: a land with black stones as if it had been burned) called Judea, from which the Antichrist will emerge. When he emerges, he will not leave a country without entering it, except for Mecca and Medina, for they are protected from him and forbidden to him.
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said about the Antichrist that he will say:
((And I am about to be given permission to go out, so I will go out and travel through the land and I will not leave a town without stopping in it in forty nights, except for Mecca and Medina, for they are both forbidden to me. Whenever I want to enter one or one of them, an angel with a drawn sword in his hand will meet me and prevent me from it, and at every pass of it there are angels guarding it.)) Narrated by Muslim.
On the authority of Anas ibn Malik, may God be pleased with him, that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
“The Antichrist will be followed by seventy thousand Jews of Isfahan wearing cloaks.” Narrated by Muslim, The cloaks: are garments worn over the shoulders like robes, with a slit in the middle and the head put into it, so that it is on the shoulder, and in the middle there is a slit for the head to be put into.
Ibn Kathir
may God have mercy on him, said: “It appears that what is meant by these are the supporters of the Antichrist from among the Turks, but his followers are more numerous among the Arabs, due to the prevalence of ignorance among them.”

Why are women among his supporters?
Because their situation is worse than that of the Bedouins; Because of their quick reaction and the prevalence of ignorance among them. It was narrated from Ibn Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, that the Chosen One, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: ((The Antichrist will descend into this sabkha (a marshy area that is not suitable for agriculture due to its salinity) in Marqanat (the little turbid water that remains in the basin. It is said: the water became rank: the mud overcame it) so, most of those who go out to him will be women, until a man will return to his intimate, his mother, his daughter, his sister, and his paternal aunt, and he will tie her up, fearing that she will go out to him. Then Allah will give power to the Muslims over him, and they will kill him and kill his followers, until the Jew will hide under a tree or a stone and say: A stone or tree for a Muslim: This is a Jew beneath me, so kill him. Narrated by Ahmad with a sound chain of transmission.
The comment
If science has reached what it is today in 2023, what is in the picture above, than placing a very micro chip in the tree trunks to learn accurate information about the tree, who passes by it, and who tries to cut it, and also for tourists to know the origin of the tree, its type, and to which plant species it belongs, etc. And God is the Lord of mankind and the Lord of these minds that produced what's in our hands today, so how can you be surprised that the trees will speak tomorrow with the permission of the Owner of the heavens and the earth. Glory be to Him, the Most High.
What is the greatest trial that the Antichrist will bring?
On the authority of Hudhayfah, may God be pleased with him, that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “Because I know better what the Antichrist has with him. He has two rivers flowing with him: one of them is white water, as can be seen with the eyes, and the other is what the eye sees as a blazing fire. So if anyone should see it, let him go to the river that he sees as a fire, close his eyes, then lower his head and drink from it, for it is cold water.” Narrated by Muslim.
How long will he stay on earth?
The authentic prophetic hadiths have come to explain the miracles that will be with the Antichrist, including the hadith of Al-Nawwas bin Sam’an, may God be pleased with him, that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said in describing the Antichrist: ((He will emerge from a gap between the Levant and Iraq, and will ravage right and left. O servants of God, be steadfast, We said: O Messenger of Allah, how long will he stay on earth? He said: ((Forty days; one day like a year, one day like a month, one day like a Friday, and the rest of his days like your days)) We said: O Messenger of Allah, Is that the day which is like a year, will the prayer of a day suffice us on it? He said: “No, estimate its time.” We said: “O Messenger of Allah, how quickly will it spread on the earth?” He said: “Like the rain that the wind blows behind it, so it comes to a people and calls upon them and they believe in him and respond to him, then He commands the sky, so it rains, and the earth, so it produces, and their grazing livestock come to them, their udders full, their sides extended, and their backs extended. Then He comes to the people and calls them, and they reject His words, then he turns away from them, and they become destitute: the rain stops and the land dries up from grass, and they do not have anything of their money in their hands. And he passes by the ruins and says to them: Bring forth your treasures, Its treasures will follow him like swarms of bees. Then he will call a young man and strike him with the sword, cutting him into two pieces with the aim of aiming. Then he will call him and he will come forward with his face beaming and laughing. Narrated by Muslim.
The comment
1- Do not be surprised that the time when he is on Earth will be changing, because life at that time is about to end on Earth, because the sun will rise from the West, the seas will explode, and the Earth will release its burdens and finish its function in the world, to begin a different life that people did not believe in, because life will change in its form, function, and what people are accustomed to at that time.
2 - Do not be surprised also that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, has a narration that says that he will emerge from Iran, and another between Iraq and the Levant, so perhaps from the farthest reaches of Iraq near Iran, for Iraq and Iran are very close, and God is Most High and All-Knowing.
3 - 3 - As for the doubt about reviving the dead, perhaps God Almighty chose this doubt specifically at the end of time, because there is a science called Cryogenic, which the West claims today and not tomorrow: that they can revive the dead after their death in a very complicated medical process, perhaps God Almighty chose this test (the Hour will not come in most cases except for the worst of people, but there are faithful people of course who will discover the matter of the Antichrist) so that the tribulation would be more widespread and greater, as many of the scientific Western minds today believe in this science and believe that they created God in a machine and do not need religions anymore, so it would be a greater and more widespread tribulation than any tribulation that people have found in their lives that they have gone through as the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said - they find someone who is more skilled than them in reviving the dead without medical complications, so they believe in him, and he is a disbeliever in God and a slave who has no power or strength, and after a short while he will be among those killed in this life.
It was narrated in Al-Bukhari on the authority of Abu Saeed Al-Khudri, may God be pleased with him:
((The Antichrist will come while it is forbidden for him to enter the pass of the city - some of the salt marshes in the city (the salt marshes of the land: what has not been plowed and has not been inhabited because of its salinity). Then on that day a man will come out to him who is the best of people, or from the best of people, and he will say: I bear witness that you are the Antichrist about whom the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, told us his hadith. Then the Antichrist will say: Tell me, if I kill this man and then bring him back to life, will you have any doubts about it? They will say, “No.” So he will kill him and then bring him back to life. When he brings him back to life, he will say, “By God, I have never had a stronger insight than I do today.” Then the Antichrist will say, “Should I kill him and not have power over him?
How will he be eliminated, and where?
And after his emergence, throughout the forty days that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) told us about, the Antichrist will continue to spread corruption on earth, through which Allah will lead the disbelievers and hypocrites astray and confirm the believers. His tribulation will be widespread, and only a few believers will be saved from it. ((Then Jesus, son of Mary, will descend and lead them in prayer. When the enemy of Allah sees him, he will melt as salt melts in water. If he were to leave him alone, he would melt away until he perishes. But Allah will kill him with His hand and show them his blood in his sword.)) Narrated by Muslim from the hadith of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him).
The Prophetic instructions for protection from the Antichrist
1 - Knowing the names and beautiful attributes of God that no one shares with Him
He knows that the Antichrist is a human being who eats and drinks, and God Almighty is far removed from all of that.
2 - God Almighty is perfect and lacks nothing
The Antichrist is blind in his right eye, but God Almighty is not blind.
3 - No one, whoever he may be, will see God Almighty in this world
The Antichrist will be seen by people when he emerges, both believers and disbelievers alike.
4 - Seeking refuge in Allah from the trial of the Antichrist, especially in prayer
On the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, that the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “When one of you recites the Shahada, let him seek refuge with God from four things. He should say: ‘O God, I seek refuge in You from the punishment of Hell, from the punishment of the grave, from the trials of life and death, and from the evil of the trial of the Antichrist.’” Narrated by Muslim.
5 - Whoever has knowledge to spread the hadiths of the Antichrist among the people
It has been reported that one of the signs of his emergence is forgetting to mention him on the pulpits. The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “The Antichrist will not emerge until people forget to mention him, and until the imams stop mentioning him on the pulpits.” Narrated by Al-Bayhaqi.
6 - Memorizing verses from Surat Al-Kahf
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, ordered whoever finds the Antichrist to recite to him the opening verses of Surat al-Kahf, and in some narrations, its endings. Abu al-Darda’, may God be pleased with him, reported that the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “Whoever memorizes ten verses from the beginning of Surat al-Kahf will be protected from the Antichrist.” In another narration: “from the end of Surat al-Kahf.” Both were narrated by Muslim in his Sahih.
