Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 12554

وَعَنْ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ قَالَ : ذُكِرَ الدَّجَّالُ عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، فَقَالَ : لَا تُكْثِرُوا ذِكْرَهُ ، فَإِنَّهُ الْأَمْرَ إِذَا قُضِيَ فِي السَّمَاءِ كَانَ أَسْرَعَ لِنُزُولِهِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ أَنْ يَظْهَرَ عَلَى أَلْسِنَةِ النَّاسِ ، وَكَيْفَ بِكُمْ وَالْقَوْمُ آمِنُونَ وَأَنْتُمْ خَائِفُونَ ؟ وَكَيْفَ بِكُمْ وَالْقَوْمُ فِي الظِّلِّ وَأَنْتُمْ فِي الضُّحِ ؟ رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ الْمَسْعُودِيُّ وَقَدِ اخْتَلَطَ . وَقَدْ رَوَى الْإِمَامُ أَحْمَدُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " لَا يَخْرُجُ الدَّجَّالُ حَتَّى يَذْهَلَ النَّاسُ عَنْ ذِكْرِهِ وَحَتَّى تَتْرُكَ الْأَئِمَّةُ ذِكْرَهُ عَلَى الْمَنَابِرِ " .
Abu al-Sha'tha' narrates: The Dajjal was mentioned in the presence of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said: "Do not mention him excessively, for when a matter is decreed in the heavens, it descends to the earth more quickly once it appears on people's tongues. How will you fare when the enemy is safe and you are in fear? How will you fare when the enemy is in the shade and you are in the sun?"
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains al-Mas'udi, whose memory became confused (ikhtilat). Imam Ahmad recorded that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Dajjal will not emerge until people become heedless of mentioning him, and until the imams stop mentioning him on the pulpits."
