Reports on the liars who will appear before the Hour

Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "In my Ummah there will be liars and dajjals, twenty-seven of them, four of whom will be women; and I am the Seal of the Prophets, there will be no prophet after me."
Imam Ahmad recorded it, Imam al-Tabarani in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and Imam al-Bazzar; the narrators of Imam al-Bazzar are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Earlier, people used to talk a great deal about Musaylimah; this was before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had said anything about him. Once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up among the people to deliver a sermon, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Amma ba'd (to proceed): The matter of this man whom you mention so often is that he is one of the thirty liars who will emerge before the Hour. And the terror of the Dajjal will reach every city except Madinah, for at each of its routes there will be two angels who will ward off the terror of the Dajjal from this city."
Imam Ahmad and Imam al-Tabarani recorded it; the narrators of one of the various chains of Imam Ahmad and Imam al-Tabarani are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Before the Hour there will be some liars: one of them is the one from al-Yamamah, one of them is al-Ansi, the one from San'a', one of them is the one from Himyar, and one of them will be the Dajjal, who will be the greatest tribulation among them." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Some have narrated these words: "There will be close to thirty liars."
Imam Ahmad and Imam al-Bazzar recorded it. The chain of Imam al-Bazzar contains a narrator, Abd al-Rahman bin Maghra', whom a group declared thiqah (trustworthy); there is weakness in him. The remaining narrators of this report are the narrators of the Sahih. The chain of Imam Ahmad contains a narrator, Ibn Lahi'ah, and he is weak.

It is narrated about Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man from the people of Kufah was with him, and he began telling him about al-Mukhtar. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: If it is really as you describe, then I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Before the Hour there will be thirty dajjals, liars."

In one narration the words are: Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Nu'm, and here the narrator named Abu al-Walid is in doubt, perhaps the words are: Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Nu'aym al-A'raji says: A man asked Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) about temporary marriage (mut'ah) with women, and I was with him at the time. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: By Allah! In the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) we were neither fornicators nor those who kept secret liaisons. Then he said: By Allah! I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Before the Day of Resurrection there will surely be thirty or more dajjals and liars." Imam Ahmad recorded all of these narrations; Imam Abu Ya'la recorded the part about mut'ah and what follows it; Imam al-Tabarani also
recorded this report, but he recorded these words: "Before the Hour the Dajjal will come, and before the Dajjal thirty or more liars will come." We asked: "What is their sign?" He said: "That they will bring you ways which you did not follow before, and by them they will change your Sunnah and your religion. When you see them, keep away from them and treat them as enemies."

Abu al-Julas says: I heard Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) say to Abdullah al-Saba'i: "Woe to you! By Allah! Nothing was specially given to me that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) concealed from anyone among the people. However, I heard him say: 'Before the Hour thirty liars will come.'" (Then Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him:) "And you are one of them."
Imam Abu Ya'la recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyidah Unaysah bint Zayd bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with her) says: Sayyiduna Zayd bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) came to al-Mukhtar, and he said: "Had you come a little earlier, you would also have seen Jibril and Mika'il." Sayyiduna Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "You are more contemptible and lowly than that, and more insignificant in the sight of Allah Almighty than that. You are a lying fabricator who falsely attributes things to Allah and His Messenger."
Imam al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Thabit bin Zayd, and he is da'if (weak).

Abu Ishaq says: I said to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both): "Al-Mukhtar claims that revelation comes down to him." He said: "He speaks the truth. (The Qur'an says:) 'Indeed, the devils inspire their allies.'"
Imam al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Before the emergence of the Dajjal, more than seventy dajjals will come."
Imam Abu Ya'la recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Layth bin Abi Sulaym, and he is a mudallis. I do not know the person named Bishr in it (in its chain), the student of Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not be established until seventy liars emerge."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Before the Hour thirty liars will come; among them are al-Aswad al-Ansi, the one from San'a' and the one from al-Yamamah."
Imam al-Tabarani and Imam Abu Ya'la recorded it, and Imam al-Bazzar recorded it in abridged form. Its chain contains a narrator, Qays bin al-Rabi', whom Shu'bah and al-Thawri declared thiqah (trustworthy), while a group declared him da'if (weak).

Shu'ayb bin Umar says: We went for Hajj and passed along the road of al-Munkadir; people were taking that road. We were looking for the way, and while we were there, a Bedouin appeared before us as though he had sprung out of the ground. He said to me: "O Shaykh! Do you know where you are?" I replied: "No." He said: "You are at al-Dhawa'ib, and this white mound you see is the bones of Bakr bin Wa'il and Taghlib, and this is the grave of Kulayb, the brother of Muhalhil." Then he asked me: "Would you be interested in a man who has a written page received from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so that you may hear from him?" I replied: "Yes." So he took me to a tent of leather, and there was a man who had tied his eyebrows up with a band. I asked: "Who is this?" He said: "This is Sayyiduna al-Adda' bin Khalid bin Amr bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him), who in the Time of Ignorance was the horseman of al-Dahya'." I said to him: "May Allah Almighty have mercy on you! Narrate to me a hadith that you heard from the mouth of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." He said: "Once we were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up as if alarmed. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: 'May my father and mother be sacrificed for you! You stood up as if alarmed?' The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Beware of the three dajjals.' Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: 'May my father and mother be sacrificed for you! You have told us about the one-eyed Dajjal and about the greatest of liars; so who is this third liar?' The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'He is a man who will emerge among a people whose first part is destroyed and whose last part is cut off. A curse will be upon them, and they will remain forever in a tribulation called al-Hariqah (the burning one). He will be the Dajjal al-Atlas, who will devour the servants of Allah.'"
Imam al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains a group of narrators whom I do not know.
