حَدَّثَنَا وَاصِلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ جُمَيْعٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ : قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّهُ بَيْنَمَا أُنَاسٌ يَسِيرُونَ فِي الْبَحْرِ فَنَفَدَ طَعَامُهُمْ ، فَرُفِعَتْ لَهُمْ جَزِيرَةٌ ، فَخَرَجُوا يُرِيدُونَ الْخُبْزَ ، فَلَقِيَتْهُمُ الْجَسَّاسَةُ ، قُلْتُ لِأَبِي سَلَمَةَ : وَمَا الْجَسَّاسَةُ ؟ قَالَ : امْرَأَةٌ تَجُرُّ شَعَرَ رَأْسِهَا ، قَالَتْ لَهُمْ : فِي هَذَا الْقَصْرِ خَبَرُ مَا تُرِيدُونَ ، فَأَتَوْهُ ، فَإِذَا هُمْ بِرَجُلٍ مُوثَقٍ ، فَقَالَ : أَخْبِرُونِي ، أَوْ سَلُونِي أُخْبِرْكُمْ ، فَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ ، فَقَالَ : أَخْبِرُونِي عَنْ نَخْلِ بَيْسَانَ وَأَرِيحِيَا أَوْ أَرِيحَا أَأَطْعَمَ ؟ قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَأَخْبِرُونِي عَنْ حَمْأَةِ زُغَرَ هَلْ فِيهَا مَاءٌ ؟ قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، قَالُوا : هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ تُطْوَى لَهُ الْأَرْضُ فَيَسْلُكُهَا فِي أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا إِلَّا مَا كَانَ مِنْ طَيْبَةَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : أَلَا وَإِنَّ طَيْبَةَ هِيَ الْمَدِينَةُ ، مَا مِنْ بَابٍ مِنْ أَبْوَابِهَا إِلَّا مَلَكٌ صَالِتٌ سَيْفَهُ يَمْنَعُهُ مِنْهَا ، وَبِمَكَّةَ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : فِي بَحْرِ فَارِسَ مَا هُوَ ، فِي بَحْرِ الرُّومِ مَا هُوَ ، فَقَالَ لِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ : إِنَّ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ شَيْئًا مَا حَفِظْتُ ، قَالَ : شَهِدَ جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ أَنَّهُ ابْنُ صَيَّادٍ ، قُلْتُ : فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ مَاتَ ، قَالَ : وَإِنْ مَاتَ ، قُلْتُ : فَإِنَّهُ أَسْلَمَ ، قَالَ : وَإِنْ أَسْلَمَ ، قُلْتُ : فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ دَخَلَ الْمَدِينَةَ ، قَالَ : وَإِنْ دَخَلَ الْمَدِينَةَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that one day the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sat on the pulpit and said: "Some people were travelling by sea when their provisions ran out. Then an island appeared before them, so they went ashore there looking for bread, and there they met the Jassasah." The narrator (al-Walid bin Jumay') says: I asked Abu Salamah (may Allah have mercy on him): What is the Jassasah? He said: "She was a woman who was dragging the hair of her head along the ground." That woman said to them: "In this palace is the news you are seeking." So they went there and found a man bound in chains. He said: "Inform me, or ask me and I will inform you." The people remained silent, so he said: "Tell me about the palm groves of Baysan and Ariha (or Arihiya): have they begun to bear fruit?" The people said: "Yes." He said: "Tell me about the spring of Zughar: is there water in it?" They said: "Yes." They said that he was the Messiah (the Dajjal), for whom the earth will be rolled up, and he will cover the whole earth in forty days except Taybah. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Know that Taybah means this very Madinah. There is no road among its roads but an angel stands guard over it with a drawn sword, who will prevent him from entering it, and the same is the case with Makkah." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said about the location of the Dajjal: "He is not in the Sea of Persia, nor is he in the Sea of Rome." Abu Salamah (may Allah have mercy on him) said to me: There is something in this hadith that I have not fully memorized. He said that Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) used to bear witness that he was Ibn Sayyad himself. I said: But he has died. He said: "Even if he has died." I said: But he had accepted Islam. He said: "Even if he accepted Islam." I said: But he had entered Madinah. He said: "Even if he entered Madinah (he is still the Dajjal)."
