It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) never said anything that was actually true but apparently seemed to be a lie, except for three such statements. The first two are these: Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) said, "I am sick," and he said, "This (idol-breaking) was done by the big idol." The third incident happened as follows: Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) and Hazrat Sarah (peace be upon her) were passing through a village where a tyrant king resided. Someone told the king that a man had come here with a very beautiful woman. The king sent a man to Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) to inquire, "Who is this woman?" Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) replied, "She is my sister." Then he went to Hazrat Sarah (peace be upon her) and said, "There is no other believer on the face of the earth except you and me, and that tyrant asked me about you, so I told him you are my sister. Therefore, do not contradict me." After this, the king summoned Hazrat Sarah (peace be upon her). She went. The king approached her with evil intentions. Hazrat Sarah (peace be upon her) performed ablution and began to pray, saying, "O Allah! If You know that I believe in You and Your Messenger, and have protected my chastity from everyone except my husband, then do not let this disbeliever overpower me." Upon this, he sank into the ground. Hazrat Sarah (peace be upon her) prayed, "O Allah! If he dies like this, people will say that Sarah killed him." So Allah released him. He tried to assault her again, but the same thing happened; he sank into the ground and was released. The third or fourth time, the king said to his guard, "You have not brought a human to me, but a devil. Send her back to Ibrahim." Saying this, he gave Hazrat Sarah (peace be upon her) Hajar (peace be upon her) as a servant. Hazrat Sarah (peace be upon her) returned to Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) and said, "Allah has protected me from the disbeliever's assault, and he has given me Hajar for service."

Therefore, when you see him, recognize him by the following signs: he will be a man of medium height, of a reddish-white complexion, wearing two garments dyed with saffron, and it will appear as if drops of water are falling from his head, though he will not be wet. Then he will break the cross, kill the swine, abolish the jizya, and invite people to Islam. In his time, Allah will destroy all religions except Islam, and in his time, he will have the Messiah Dajjal killed, and peace and security will prevail over the earth, so much so that snakes will graze with camels, leopards with cows, and wolves with sheep at the same watering place, and children will play with snakes and they will not harm them.
