Hadith 4310

حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل ، عَنْ أَبِي حَيَّانَ التَّيْمِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ ، قَالَ : جَاءَ نَفَرٌ إِلَى مَرْوَانَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَسَمِعُوهُ يُحَدِّثُ ، فِي الْآيَاتِ أَنَّ أَوَّلَهَا الدَّجَّالُ قَالَ فَانْصَرَفْتُ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو فَحَدَّثْتُهُ ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : لَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ أَوَّلَ الْآيَاتِ خُرُوجًا طُلُوعُ الشَّمْسِ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا أَوِ الدَّابَّةُ عَلَى النَّاسِ ضُحًى فَأَيَّتُهُمَا كَانَتْ قَبْلَ صَاحِبَتِهَا فَالْأُخْرَى عَلَى أَثَرِهَا " ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : وَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ الْكُتُبَ وَأَظُنُّ أَوَّلَهُمَا خُرُوجًا طُلُوعُ الشَّمْسِ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا .
Abu zurah said: A group of people came to Marwan in Madina, and they heard him say that the first of the signs to appear would be the coming forth of the Dajjal (Antichirst). He said: I then went to Abdullah bin Amr and mentioned it to him. He did not say anything (reliable). I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: The first of the signs to appear will be the rising of the sun in its place of setting and the coming forth of the beast against mankind in the forenoon. Whichever of them comes first will soon be followed by the other. Abdullah who used to read the scriptures (Torah, Gospel) said: I think the first of them will be the rising of the sun in its place of setting.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
Benefit: The emergence of the Beast is one of the important signs before the Day of Judgment. The appearance of a specific animal that will speak to people is an absolute truth, and in the Noble Qur’an, Allah says: When the word (of punishment) is fulfilled against them, We shall bring forth for them a creature from the earth that will speak to them, because people did not believe in Our signs. (An-Naml 83) .

In some narrations, this animal has been interpreted as “Jassamah.” And Allah knows best.

For details, see Tafsir Ibn Kathir, Qurtubi, etc.

Benefit: Only that faith is beneficial and accepted which is in the unseen; after witnessing the realities of the Hereafter, faith will not be of any benefit in any way.

Even in the Hereafter, the disbelievers will say: (رَبَّنَاۤ اَبْصَرْنَا وَ سَمِعْنَا فَارْجِعْنَا نَعْمَلْ صَالِحًا اِنَّا مُوْقِنُوْنَ) “O our Lord, now we have seen and heard, so send us back that we may do righteous deeds; now we are certain.” But returning to the world will not be possible.

Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: The noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum ajma'in) who performed Qiran Hajj with the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) performed the sa'i along with the Tawaf al-Qudum, and then did not perform the sa'i again after the Tawaf al-Ifadah. If they were unable to perform the Tawaf al-Qudum, then they performed the sa'i after the Tawaf al-Ifadah. However, those who were performing Tamattu' performed the sa'i again after the Tawaf al-Ifadah. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and other affluent Companions were Qarin, therefore, they performed only one sa'i. The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) performed three tawafs: Tawaf al-Qudum, Tawaf al-Ifadah, and Tawaf al-Wada', but performed only one sa'i.
