عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ الْيَمَانِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: ذُكِرَ الدَّجَّالُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: ”لَأَنَا لَفِتْنَةُ بَعْضِكُمْ أَخْوَفُ عِنْدِي مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الدَّجَّالِ، وَلَنْ يَنْجُوَ أَحَدٌ مِمَّا قَبْلَهَا إِلَّا نَجَا مِنْهَا، وَمَا صُنِعَتْ فِتْنَةٌ مُنْذُ كَانَتِ الدُّنْيَا صَغِيرَةً وَلَا كَبِيرَةً إِلَّا لِفِتْنَةِ الدَّجَّالِ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Hudhayfah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) was mentioned in the presence of the Dajjal. He (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: I fear the tribulations among you, that is, mutual conflicts and quarrels, more than the tribulation of the Dajjal. And (listen) since the world was established, all the minor and major tribulations that have appeared, all of them were for the sake of the tribulation of the Dajjal.
