صحيح مسلم 7373

An-Nawwas b. Sam`an reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) made a mention of the Dajjal one day in the morning. He (ﷺ) sometimes described him to be insignificant and sometimes described (his turmoil) as very significant (and we felt) as if he were in the cluster of the date-palm trees. When we went to him (to the Holy Prophet) in the evening and he read (the signs of fear) in our faces, he (ﷺ) said:What is the matter with you? We said: Allah's Messenger, you made a mention of the Dajjal in the morning (sometimes describing him) to be insignificant and sometimes very important, until we began to think as if he were present in some (near) part of the cluster of the date-palm trees. Thereupon he (ﷺ) said: I harbor fear in regard to you in so many other things besides the Dajjal. If he comes forth while I am among you, I shall contend with him on your behalf, but if he comes forth while I am not amongst you, a man must contend on his own behalf and Allah would take care of every Muslim on my behalf (and safeguard him against his evil). He (Dajjal) would be a young man with twisted, contracted hair, and a blind eye. I compare him to `Abd-ul-`Uzza b. Qatan. He who amongst you would survive to see him should recite over him the opening verses of Sura Kahf (xviii). He would appear on the way between Syria and Iraq and would spread mischief right and left. O servant of Allah! adhere (to the path of Truth). We said: Allah's Messenger, how long would he stay on the earth? He (ﷺ) said: For forty days, one day like a year and one day like a month and one day like a week and the rest of the days would be like your days. We said: Allah's Messenger, would one day's prayer suffice for the prayers of day equal to one year? Thereupon he (ﷺ) said: No, but you must make an estimate of time (and then observe prayer). We said: Allah's Messenger, how quickly would he walk upon the earth? Thereupon he (ﷺ) said: Like cloud driven by the wind. He would come to the people and invite them (to a wrong religion) and they would affirm their faith in him and respond to him. He would then give command to the sky and there would be rainfall upon the earth and it would grow crops. Then in the evening, their pasturing animals would come to them with their humps very high and their udders full of milk and their flanks stretched. He would then come to another people and invite them. But they would reject him and he would go away from them and there would be drought for them and nothing would be left with them in the form of wealth. He would then walk through the waste land and say to it: Bring forth your treasures, and the treasures would come out and collect (themselves) before him like the swarm of bees. He would then call a person brimming with youth and strike him with the sword and cut him into two pieces and (make these pieces lie at a distance which is generally) between the archer and his target. He would then call (that young man) and he will come forward laughing with his face gleaming (with happiness) and it would be at this very time that Allah would send Jesus, son of Mary, and he will descend at the white minaret in the eastern side of Damascus wearing two garments lightly dyed with saffron and placing his hands on the wings of two Angels. When he would lower his head, there would fall beads of perspiration from his head, and when he would raise it up, beads like pearls would scatter from it. Every non-believer who would smell the odor of his self would die and his breath would reach as far as he would be able to see. He would then search for him (Dajjal) until he would catch hold of him at the gate of Ludd and would kill him. Then a people whom Allah had protected would come to Jesus, son of Mary, and he would wipe their faces and would inform them of their ranks in Paradise and it would be under such conditions that Allah would reveal to Jesus these words: I have brought forth from amongst My servants such people against whom none would be able to fight; you take these people safely to Tur. And then Allah would send Gog and Magog and they would swarm down from every slope. The first of them would pass the lake of Tiberias and drink out of it. And when the last of them would pass, he would say: There was once water there. Jesus and his companions would then be besieged here (at Tur, and they would be so much hard pressed) that the head of the ox would be dearer to them than one hundred dinars and Allah's Apostle, Jesus, and his companions would supplicate Allah, Who would send to them insects (which would attack their necks) and in the morning they would perish like one single person. Allah's Apostle, Jesus, and his companions would then come down to the earth and they would not find in the earth as much space as a single span which is not filled with their putrefaction and stench. Allah's Apostle, Jesus, and his companions would then again beseech Allah, Who would send birds whose necks would be like those of Bactrian camels and they would carry them and throw them where God would will. Then Allah would send rain which no house of clay or (the tent of) camels' hairs would keep out and it would wash away the earth until it could appear to be a mirror. Then the earth would be told to bring forth its fruit and restore its blessing and, as a result thereof, there would grow (such a big) pomegranate that a group of persons would be able to eat that, and seek shelter under its skin and milch cow would give so much milk that a whole party would be able to drink it. And the milch camel would give such (a large quantity of) milk that the whole tribe would be able to drink out of that and the milch sheep would give so much milk that the whole family would be able to drink out of that and at that time Allah would send a pleasant wind which would soothe (people) even under their armpits, and would take the life of every Muslim and only the wicked would survive who would commit adultery like asses and the Last Hour would come to them

Rapporté par An-Nawwas ibn Sam’an رضي الله عنه : Un jour, le Messager d’Allah ﷺ a parlé du Dajjal le matin. Parfois il le décrivait comme insignifiant, parfois il disait que sa tentation était très grave, à tel point que nous avions l’impression qu’il était caché dans les palmiers tout près. Le soir, nous sommes allés le voir et il a vu la peur sur nos visages. Il a dit : « Qu’avez-vous ? » Nous avons répondu : « Ô Messager d’Allah, tu as parlé du Dajjal ce matin, parfois en le minimisant, parfois en insistant sur son importance, au point que nous avons cru qu’il était tout proche. » Il a dit : « Je crains pour vous bien d’autres choses que le Dajjal. S’il apparaît alors que je suis parmi vous, je me chargerai de lui pour vous. Mais s’il apparaît alors que je ne suis plus là, chacun devra se défendre lui-même, et Allah protégera chaque musulman à ma place. Le Dajjal sera un jeune homme, avec des cheveux crépus et un œil aveugle. Je le compare à ‘Abd-ul-‘Uzza ibn Qatan. Celui d’entre vous qui le verra devra réciter sur lui les premiers versets de la sourate al-Kahf (18). Il apparaîtra entre la Syrie et l’Irak et sèmera la corruption partout. Ô serviteurs d’Allah, tenez-vous fermement à la vérité. » Nous avons demandé : « Combien de temps restera-t-il sur terre ? » Il a répondu : « Quarante jours : un jour comme une année, un jour comme un mois, un jour comme une semaine, et le reste comme vos jours habituels. » Nous avons dit : « Le jour qui sera aussi long qu’une année, suffira-t-il de prier une seule fois ? » Il a répondu : « Non, il faudra estimer le temps et prier en conséquence. » Nous avons demandé : « Comment voyagera-t-il sur terre ? » Il a dit : « Comme un nuage poussé par le vent. » Il ira vers des gens, les invitera, et ils croiront en lui. Il ordonnera au ciel de pleuvoir et à la terre de produire, et le soir, leurs troupeaux reviendront avec des bosses hautes, des pis pleins de lait et des flancs gonflés. Il ira ensuite vers d’autres gens qui le rejetteront, et ils seront frappés de sécheresse et perdront leurs biens. Il passera devant des terres désertes et dira : “Fais sortir tes trésors !”, et les trésors sortiront et se rassembleront devant lui comme des abeilles. Il appellera un jeune homme, le coupera en deux avec une épée, puis l’appellera et il reviendra vers lui en riant, le visage rayonnant. À ce moment-là, Allah enverra Jésus, fils de Marie, qui descendra près du minaret blanc à l’est de Damas, vêtu de deux habits légèrement safranés, les mains posées sur les ailes de deux anges. Quand il baissera la tête, des gouttes de sueur tomberont, et quand il la relèvera, des perles couleront. Tout mécréant qui sentira son odeur mourra, et son souffle ira aussi loin que son regard. Jésus cherchera le Dajjal jusqu’à le rattraper à la porte de Ludd et le tuera. Ensuite, des gens qu’Allah aura protégés viendront à Jésus, fils de Marie, et il essuiera leurs visages et leur dira leurs rangs au Paradis. À ce moment-là, Allah dira à Jésus : “J’ai fait sortir des serviteurs contre qui nul ne peut lutter ; emmène ces gens au mont Tur.” Allah enverra alors Gog et Magog, qui descendront de toutes les hauteurs. Les premiers passeront près du lac de Tibériade et le boiront, et les derniers diront : “Il y avait de l’eau ici.” Jésus et ses compagnons seront alors assiégés au mont Tur, au point que la tête d’un bœuf vaudra plus que cent dinars. Jésus et ses compagnons prieront Allah, qui enverra des insectes qui attaqueront leurs cous, et au matin, ils seront tous morts d’un seul coup. Jésus et ses compagnons descendront alors sur terre et ne trouveront pas un seul espace sans cadavres et puanteur. Ils prieront Allah, qui enverra des oiseaux au long cou, semblables à des chameaux, pour les emporter où Allah voudra. Ensuite, Allah fera tomber une pluie qui pénétrera partout, lavera la terre jusqu’à ce qu’elle devienne comme un miroir. La terre produira alors ses fruits et retrouvera ses bénédictions : une grenade sera si grosse qu’un groupe pourra en manger et s’abriter sous sa peau, une vache donnera tant de lait qu’un groupe entier pourra en boire, un chameau tant de lait qu’une tribu entière pourra en boire, et une brebis tant de lait qu’une famille entière pourra en boire. À ce moment-là, Allah enverra une brise douce qui caressera même sous les aisselles, et qui prendra l’âme de chaque musulman ; seuls les méchants resteront, et ils commettront l’adultère comme des ânes, et l’Heure viendra sur eux. »
