وَعَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْجَرَّاحِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ”إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ نَبِيٌّ بَعْدَ نُوحٍ إِلَّا وَقَدْ أَنْذَرَ الدَّجَّالَ قَوْمَهُ وَإِنِّي أُنْذِرْكُمُوهُ“ قَالَ فَوَصَفَهُ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَالَ ”وَلَعَلَّهُ يُدْرِكُهُ بَعْضُ مَنْ رَآنِي أَوْ سَمِعَ كَلَامِي“ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ قُلُوبُنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ أَمِثْلُهَا الْيَوْمَ قَالَ ”أَوْ خَيْرٌ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah bin Jarrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Every prophet who came after Noah (peace be upon him) warned his people about the Dajjal, and I am also informing you about him. Then, while telling us about him, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It is possible that someone who sees me or hears my words may encounter him. The companions asked: O Messenger of Allah! What will be the state of our hearts in those days? Will it be like it is today? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Or even better than this?
