حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، ثنا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزَّعْرَاءِ، قَالَ: ذَكَرُوا عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللهِ الدَّجَّالَ فَقَالَ: " تَفْتَرِقُونَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ثَلَاثَ فِرَقٍ: فِرْقَةٌ تَتْبَعُهُ، وَفِرْقَةٌ تَلْحَقُ بِأَرْضِ آبَائِهَا مَنَابِتِ الشِّيحِ، وَفِرْقَةٌ تَأْخُذُ شَطَّ هَذَا الْفُرَاتِ فَيُقَاتِلُهُمْ، وَيُقَاتِلُونَهُ حَتَّى يَجْتَمِعَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ بِغَرْبِيِّ الشَّامِ، فَيَبْعَثُونَ إِلَيْهِ طَلِيعَةً فِيهِمْ فَارِسٌ عَلَى فَرَسٍ أَشْقَرَ أَوْ أَبْلَقَ فَيُقْتَلُونَ لَا يَرْجِعُ إِلَيْهِمْ شَيْءٌ "، قَالَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو صَادِقٍ: عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ نَاجِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: «فَرَسٌ أَشْقَرُ» ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: «وَيَزْعُمُ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ أَنَّ الْمَسِيحَ يَنْزِلُ فَيَقْتُلُهُ» - وَلَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ حَدِيثًا غَيْرَ هَذَا - " ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ يَأْجُوجُ، وَمَأْجُوجُ، فَيَمُوجُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَيُفْسِدُونَ فِيهَا، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: {وَهُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ حَدَبٍ} [الأنبياء: ٩٦] يَنْسِلُونَ، ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ دَابَّةً مِثْلَ هَذِهِ النَّغَفَةِ فَيَلِجُ فِي أَسْمَاعِهِمْ وَمَنَاخِرِهِمْ فَيَمُوتُونَ، فَتَنْتُنُ الْأَرْضُ مِنْهُمْ "، قَالَ: «فَيَجْأَرُ الْأَرْضُ إِلَى اللهِ فَيُرْسِلُ اللهُ مَاءً فَيُطَهِّرُ الْأَرْضَ مِنْهُمْ، ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُ اللهُ رِيحًا فِيهِ زَمْهَرِيرٌ بَارِدَةً فَلَا تَدَعُ عَلَى وَجْهِ الْأَرْضِ مُؤْمِنًا إِلَّا كُفِتَ بِتِلْكَ الرِّيحِ، ثُمَّ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ عَلَى شِرَارِ النَّاسِ، ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مَلَكٌ بِالصُّورِ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ فَيَنْفُخُ فِيهِ، وَلَا يَبْقَى خَلْقٌ لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، وَالْأَرْضِ إِلَّا مَاتَ إِلَّا مَنْ شَاءَ رَبُّكَ، ثُمَّ يَكُونُ بَيْنَ النَّفْخَتَيْنِ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ» ، قَالَ: " فَلَيْسَ مِنْ بَنِي آدَمَ خَلْقٌ إِلَّا فِي الْأَرْضِ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ، ثُمَّ يُرْسِلُ اللهُ مَاءً مِنْ تَحْتِ الْعَرْشِ يُمْنِي كَمَنِيِّ الرَّجاُلِ، فَتَنْبُتُ جُسْمَانُهُمْ، وَلُحْمَانُهُمْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْمَاءِ كَمَا يَنْبُتُ الْأَرْضُ مِنَ السُّدِّيِّ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: {الَّذِي يُرْسِلُ الرِّيَاحَ فَتُثِيرُ سَحَابًا} [الروم: ٤٨] «فَسُقْنَاهُ إِلَى بَلَدٍ مَيِّتٍ فَأَحْيَيْنَا بِهِ الْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا كَذَلِكَ النُّشُورُ» ، ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مَلَكٌ بِالصُّورِ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ، وَالْأَرْضِ فَيَنْفُخُ فِيهِ فَتَنْطَلِقُ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ إِلَى جَسَدِهَا حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ فِيهِ، فَيَقُومُونَ فَيَحْيَوْنَ حَيَّةَ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ قِيَامًا لِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ، ثُمَّ يَتَمَثَّلُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِلْخَلْقِ فَيَلْقَاهُمْ فَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْخَلْقِ يَعْبُدُ مِنْ دُونِ اللهِ شَيْئًا إِلَّا هُوَ مُرْتَفِعٌ لَهُ يَتْبَعُهُ، فَيُلْقَى الْيَهُودَ فَيَقُولُ: مَا تَعْبُدُونَ؟ قَالُوا: عُزَيْرًا، قَالَ: هَلْ يَسُرُّكُمُ الْمَاءُ؟ قَالُوا: نَعَمْ، فَيُرِيهِمْ جَهَنَّمَ كَهَيْئَةِ السَّرَابِ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: {وَعَرَضْنَا جَهَنَّمَ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْكَافِرِينَ عَرْضًا} [الكهف: ١٠٠] ثُمَّ يَلْقَى النَّصَارَى فَيَقُولُ: مَا تَعْبُدُونَ؟ قَالُوا: الْمَسِيحَ، قَالَ: فَهَلْ يَسُرُّكُمُ السَّرَابُ؟ قَالُوا: نَعَمْ فَيُرِيهِمْ جَهَنَّمَ كَهَيْئَةِ السَّرَابِ، وَكَذَلِكَ لِمَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ مِنْ دُونِ اللهِ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: {وَقِفُوهُمْ إِنَّهُمْ مَسْئُولُونَ} [الصافات: ٢٤] حَتَّى يَمُرَّ الْمُسْلِمُونَ فَيَلْقَاهُمْ فَيَقُولُ: مَنْ تَعْبُدُونَ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: نَعْبُدُ اللهَ لَا نُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا، فَيَنْتَهِرُهُمْ مَرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ: مَنْ تَعْبُدُونَ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: سُبْحَانَهُ إِذَا اعْتَرَفَ لَنَا عَرَفْنَاهُ، فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ يُكْشَفُ عَنْ سَاقٍ فَلَا يَبْقَى مُؤْمِنٌ إِلَّا خَرَّ لِلَّهِ سَاجِدًا، وَيَبْقَى الْمُنَافِقُونَ ظُهُورُهُمْ طَبَقًا وَاحِدًا كَأَنَّمَا فِيهَا السَّفَافِيدُ، فَيَقُولُونَ: رَبَّنَا، فَيَقُولُ: قَدْ كُنْتُمْ تُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى السُّجُودِ، وَأَنْتُمْ سَالِمُونَ، ثُمَّ يَأْمُرُ بِالصِّرَاطِ فَيُضْرَبُ عَلَى جَهَنَّمَ، فَيَمُرُّ النَّاسُ بِأَعْمَالِهِمْ زُمَرًا، أَوَائِلُهُمْ كَلَمْحِ الْبَرْقِ، ثُمَّ كَمَرِّ الرِّيحِ، ثُمَّ كَمَرِّ الطَّيْرِ، ثُمَّ كَأَسْرَعِ الْبَهَائِمِ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " ثُمَّ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى يَجِيءَ الرَّجُلُ سَعْيًا، حَتَّى يَجِيءَ الرَّجُلُ مَشْيًا، حَتَّى يَكُونَ آخِرُهُمْ رَجُلًا يُتَلَقَّى عَلَى بَطْنِهِ، فَيَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ أَبْطَأْتَ بِي، فَيَقُولُ: إِنَّمَا أَبْطَأَ بِكَ عَمَلُكَ، ثُمَّ يَأْذَنُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِي الشَّفَاعَةِ، فَيَكُونُ أَوَّلُ شَافِعٍ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ جِبْرِيلُ، ثُمَّ إِبْرَاهِيمُ، ثُمَّ مُوسَى، أَوْ قَالَ عِيسَى عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلَامُ، قَالَ سَلَمَةُ: ثُمَّ يَقُومُ نَبِيِّكُمْ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، رَابِعًا لَا يَشْفَعُ أَحَدٌ بَعْدَهُ فِيمَا يَشْفَعُ فِيهِ، وَهُوَ الْمَقَامُ الْمَحْمُودُ الَّذِي وَعَدَهُ اللهُ: {عَسَى أَنْ يَبْعَثَكَ رَبُّكَ مَقَامًا مَحْمُودًا} [الإسراء: ٧٩] وَلَيْسَ مِنْ نَفْسٍ إِلَّا تَنْظُرُ إِلَى بَيْتٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَبَيْتٍ فِي النَّارِ، فَيُقَالُ: لَوْ عَمِلْتُمْ، وَهُوَ يَوْمُ الْحَسْرَةِ، قَالَ: فَيَرَى أَهْلُ النَّارِ الْبَيْتَ الَّذِي فِي الْجَنَّةِ، فَيُقَالُ: لَوْ عَمِلْتُمْ، وَيَرَى أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ الْبَيْتَ الَّذِي فِي النَّارِ فَيَقُولُ: لَوْلَا أَنْ مَنَّ اللهُ عَلَيْكُمْ، ثُمَّ يَشْفَعُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ، وَالنَّبِيُّونَ، وَالشُّهَدَاءُ، وَالصَّالِحُونَ، وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ فَيُشَفِّعُهُمُ اللهُ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: أَنَا أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ فَيُخْرِجُ مِنَ النَّارِ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا أَخْرَجَ مِنَ جَمِيعِ الْخَلْقِ بِرَحْمَتِهِ حَتَّى مَا يَتْرُكُ فِيهَا أَحَدًا فِيهِ خَيْرٌ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: «قُلْ» يَا أَيُّهَا الْكُفَّارُ {مَا سَلَكَكُمْ فِي سَقَرَ} [المدثر: ٤٢] ، وَعَقَدْ بِيَدِهِ، {قَالُوا لَمْ نَكُ مِنَ الْمُصَلِّينَ وَلَمْ نَكُ نُطْعِمُ الْمِسْكِينَ وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ الْخَائِضِينَ وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِيَوْمِ الدِّينِ} [المدثر: ٤٤] وَعَقَدْ أَرْبَعًا " - وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ: بِيَدِهِ وَضَمَّ أَرْبَعَ أَصَابِعَ، وَوَصَفَهُ أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ - ثُمَّ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: " هَلْ تَرَوْنَ فِي هَؤُلَاءِ أَحَدًا فِيهِ خَيْرٌ؟ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ اللهُ أَنْ لَا يُخْرِجَ مِنْهَا أَحَدًا غَيَّرَ وُجُوهَهُمْ وَأَلْوَانَهُمْ، فَيَجِيءُ الرَّجُلُ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَيَشْفَعُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: مَنْ عَرَفَ أَحَدًا فَلْيُخْرِجْهُ، فَيَجِيءُ الرَّجُلُ فَيَنْظُرُ وَلَا يَعْرِفُ أَحَدًا، فَيَقُولُ الرَّجُلُ لِلرَّجُلِ: يَا فُلَانُ أَنَا فُلَانٌ، فَيَقُولُ: مَا أَعْرِفُكَ، فَيَقُولُونَ: {رَبَّنَا أَخْرِجْنَا مِنْهَا فَإِنْ عُدْنَا فَإِنَّا ظَالِمُونَ قَالَ اخْسَئُوا فِيهَا وَلَا تُكَلِّمُونِ} فَإِذَا قَالَ ذَلِكَ: أُطْبِقَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ مِنْهُمْ بَشَرٌ "
Abu al-Za'ra' (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The Dajjal was mentioned in the presence of Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said: O people! You will split into three groups: one group will follow him; one group will go off to the land of their forefathers, the places where shrubs grow; and one group will take to (the bank of) this Euphrates, and he will fight them and they will fight him, until the believers gather in the western part of Syria. They will send a vanguard towards him, among them a horseman on a reddish or piebald horse, and they will all be killed; nothing of them will return (alive).
The narrator said: And Abu Sadiq narrated to me through Rabi'ah bin Najid from Abdullah (bin Mas'ud) that he said: A reddish horse. Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) (also) said: "And the People of the Book claim that the Messiah (peace be upon him) will descend and kill him" - and I never heard him narrate any report from the People of the Book other than this - "Then Gog and Magog will come out; they will surge like waves across the earth and spread corruption in it." Then Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) recited: 'And they, from every elevation' [Al-Anbiya: 96] will rush down. "Then Allah will send upon them a creature like this naghafah (the worm that breeds in a camel's nose), which will enter their ears and nostrils, and they will all die, and the earth will be filled with their stench." He said: "Then the earth will cry out to Allah, and Allah will send down water that will cleanse the earth of them (their corpses). Then Allah will send a wind containing intense cold, which will not leave a single believer on the earth without taking him away. Then the Hour will be established upon the worst of people. Then an angel will stand with the Trumpet between the heaven and the earth and blow into it, and no creature of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, will remain in the heavens and the earth except that it dies, save whom your Lord wills. Then between the two blasts there will be as long as Allah wills." He said: "There is no creature of the children of Adam except that something of him is in the earth. Then Allah will send water from beneath the Throne, like the semen of men, and from that water their bodies and their flesh will grow just as vegetation grows from the earth." Then Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) recited: 'It is He who sends the winds, and they stir up clouds' [Al-Rum: 48] "Then We drive it to a dead land and revive the earth thereby after its death; such will be the resurrection." Then an angel will stand with the Trumpet between the heaven and the earth and blow into it, and every soul will rush to its body until it enters it. Then they will all rise, coming to life as one man, and stand before the Lord of the worlds.
Then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, will manifest Himself to the creation and meet them, and there will be no one among the creation who worshipped anything besides Allah except that that thing will be raised up for him and he will follow it. Then the Jews will be met and asked: Whom did you worship? They will say: Uzayr. It will be said: Would you like this water? They will say: Yes. Then Hell will be shown to them in the form of a mirage. Then Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) recited: 'And on that Day We will present Hell to the disbelievers' [Al-Kahf: 100]. Then the Christians will be met and asked: Whom did you worship? They will say: The Messiah. It will be said: Would you like this mirage? They will say: Yes. Then Hell will be shown to them too in the form of a mirage, and so it will be with everyone who worshipped anything besides Allah. Then Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) recited: 'And stop them; indeed, they are to be questioned' [Al-Saffat: 24]. Until the turn of the Muslims comes: they will be met and asked: Whom did you worship? They will say: We worshipped Allah, associating nothing with Him. Then they will be rebuked once or twice: Whom did you worship? They will say: Glory be to Allah! When He makes Himself known to us, we will recognise Him. At that moment the Shin (of Allah) will be uncovered, and every believer will fall down in prostration before Allah, while the backs of the hypocrites will remain like a single plank, as though skewers had been run through them. They will say: Our Lord! (And) it will be said (to them): You used to be called to prostration while you were safe and sound (and you would not prostrate). Then the Bridge (Sirat) will be ordered and placed over Hell, and people will pass over it in groups according to their deeds: the first of them like the flash of lightning, then like the passing of the wind, then like the flight of a bird, then like the swiftest of animals."
Then he said: "Then so on, until a man comes running, then a man comes walking, until the last of them is a man dragged along on his belly, and he will say: O my Lord! You have delayed me. Allah will say: It is only your deeds that delayed you. Then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, will permit intercession, and the first to intercede on the Day of Resurrection will be Jibril (peace be upon him), then Ibrahim (peace be upon him), then Musa (peace be upon him), or he said: Isa (peace be upon him)." Salamah (the narrator) said: "Then your Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) will stand as the fourth; no one will intercede after him in what he has interceded for, and this is the Praised Station (al-Maqam al-Mahmud) that Allah has promised him: 'It may be that your Lord will raise you to a praised station' [Al-Isra: 79]. And there is no soul except that it will see a house in Paradise and a house in Hell. It will be said: If only you had done good deeds (this house in Paradise would have been yours), and that is the Day of Regret." He said: "So the people of Hell will see the house that (could have been theirs) in Paradise, and it will be said: If only you had done good deeds. And the people of Paradise will see the house that (could have been theirs) in Hell, and it will be said: Had Allah not been gracious to you (you too would have been in it). Then the angels, the prophets, the martyrs, the righteous and the believers will intercede, and Allah will accept their intercession. Then Allah will say: I am the Most Merciful of those who show mercy. So by His mercy He will bring out of Hell more than all the creation together brought out, until He leaves in it no one in whom there is any good." Then Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) recited: (O disbelievers!) 'What led you into Saqar?' [Al-Muddaththir: 42] and he closed (four fingers of) his hand - 'They will say: We were not of those who prayed, nor did we feed the poor, and we used to indulge (in falsehood) with those who indulged, and we used to deny the Day of Recompense' [Al-Muddaththir: 44] and he closed four (fingers) - Sufyan said: (that is,) he closed four fingers of his hand, and Abu Nu'aym described it likewise - then Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Do you consider anyone among these to have any good in him? So when Allah wills not to bring anyone out of it, He will change their faces and their colours. Then a man from among the believers will come to intercede (for someone he knows), and it will be said to him: Whoever recognises anyone, let him bring him out. So the man will come and look but will not recognise anyone, and a man (lying in Hell) will say (to him): O so-and-so, I am so-and-so. He will say: I do not know you. Then they (all) will say: 'Our Lord, bring us out of it; if we ever return (to evil), then indeed we will be wrongdoers.' It will be said: 'Remain in it in humiliation and do not speak to Me.' When this is said, (Hell) will be closed over them, and not a single human being of them will come out."
