Hadith Commentary:
By bringing this chain of narration, Imam Bukhari rahimahullah intends to establish that Ibrahim bin Abdur Rahman bin Awf actually heard (had direct transmission) from Abu Bakrah, because some hadith scholars have considered Ibrahim’s narration from Abu Bakrah to be problematic (munkar).
This is because Ibrahim was a resident of Madinah, while Abu Bakrah, from the time of Umar radi Allahu anhu until his death, resided in Basrah.
The prophecy of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was proven to be absolutely true.
In one narration, it is mentioned that the Dajjal, seeing your blessed tomb from afar, will say:
“This is the white palace of Muhammad, my brother.”

Hadith Commentary:
1.
In a lengthy hadith narrated from Fatimah bint Qays radi Allahu anha, it is mentioned that a man, bound in the severest manner from head to toe in chains on a desolate island, said:
I am the Messiah Dajjal.
Soon, I will be granted permission to emerge, and I will travel through every settlement except for Madinah and Makkah.
Whenever I intend to go towards either of these two,
an angel, with a drawn sword, will stand before me,
who will prevent me from entering them.
Moreover, at all their entrances there will be angels who will guard them.
(Sahih Muslim, Al-Fitan, Hadith: 7386(2942))
In another narration, it is mentioned that Dajjal will emerge and, climbing Mount Uhud, will look towards Madinah Tayyibah,
and will say to his companions:
Do you see this white palace? That is the mosque of Ahmad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam). Then he will come towards Madinah and will find, at every path, an angel with a drawn sword.
(Musnad Ahmad: 338/4)
In any case, entry of Dajjal into the two sacred sanctuaries (Haramayn Sharifayn) will be forbidden.
And Allah knows best.

Hadith Commentary:
The word "Dajjal" is derived from "dajl," which means one who causes strife and corruption, and one who deceives and misleads people.
The great Dajjal will appear at the end of times, and many minor Dajjals continue to emerge at all times, who use the Qur'an for incorrect issues to lead people away from religion, making them grave-worshippers and the like.
There are many such Dajjals even nowadays.

Hadith Commentary:
This prophecy was fulfilled word for word: in the time of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), there was neither a wall around Madinah nor any gates.
Now, a wall has been built and there are also seven gates. The remaining part of the prophecy will also be proven true in the future. The government of Saudi Arabia (may Allah preserve it) has granted this pure city such splendor and progress that it is unparalleled. May Allah keep this government established forever, Ameen.
Having recently been honored with the visitation of Madinah, I am writing these few lines.
