حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْجُمَحِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّائِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سُرَاقَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْجَرَّاحِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَکُنْ نَبِيٌّ بَعْدَ نُوحٍ إِلَّا قَدْ أَنْذَرَ الدَّجَّالَ قَوْمَهُ وَإِنِّي أُنْذِرُکُمُوهُ فَوَصَفَهُ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ لَعَلَّهُ سَيُدْرِکُهُ بَعْضُ مَنْ رَآنِي أَوْ سَمِعَ کَلَامِي قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَکَيْفَ قُلُوبُنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ مِثْلُهَا يَعْنِي الْيَوْمَ أَوْ خَيْرٌ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَی وَفِي الْبَاب عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُسْرٍ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ جُزَيٍّ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُغَفَّلٍ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْجَرَّاحِ
جامع ترمذی · Hadith 2234
Abu 'Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah said: I heard the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w): 'There was never a Prophet after Nuh but that he warned his people about the Dajjal, and indeed I shall warn you of him.' Then the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) described him for us, and he said: Perhaps some of you who see me, or hear my words shall live to see him. They said: O Messenger of Allah! How will our hearts be on that day? He said: The same – that is, as today – or better.” (Hasan)
