أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، نا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ خُثَيْمٍ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ، عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((يَمْكُثُ الدَّجَّالُ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، السُّنَّةُ كَالشَّهْرِ، وَالشَّهْرُ كَالْجُمُعَةَ، وَالْجُمُعَةُ كَالْيَوْمِ، وَالْيَوْمُ كَاضْطِرَامِ السَّعَفَةِ فِي النَّارِ)).
Sayyida Asma bint Yazid (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "The Dajjal will remain on the earth for forty years; a year will be like a month, a month like a week, a week like a day, and a day will be like a flame in the fire."

Benefits:
The aforementioned narrations are weak; however, it is established from an authentic hadith that he (the Dajjal) will remain for forty days, as Sayyiduna Nawwas ibn Sam'an radi Allahu anhu reports: One day, the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam mentioned the Dajjal and gave advice: "O servants of Allah! Remain steadfast." We asked: For how long will the Dajjal stay on the earth? He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam replied: "Forty days, of which the first day will be equal to a year, the second day will be equal to a month, and the third day will be equal to a week, and the remaining thirty-seven days will be like your (normal) days and nights."
We asked: O Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam! On that first day which will be equal to a year, will the (five) daily prayers of one day suffice? He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam replied: "No, estimate the (length of the) day and (perform) the prayers accordingly (for the whole year)." (Muslim, Kitab al-Fitan, Bab Dhikr al-Dajjal, No. 2937. Sunan Abi Dawud, Kitab al-Malahim, No. 4321)
