Reports on the Dajjal (Akhbar al-Dajjal)
The Dajjal is among the greatest trials the Ummah will face before the Last Hour. The Prophet (SAW) warned about him more explicitly than almost any other sign of the end times. The narrations about him are scattered across the major hadith collections. This book gathers them in one place, with full chains, source citations, and scholarly commentary.
Akhbar al-Dajjal by Imam Abd al-Ghani al-Maqdisi is a collection of 107 Prophetic narrations on the Dajjal, compiled by a 6th-century hadith master whose trustworthiness was confirmed by the scholars of his era. Each hadith is presented with its full chain of narrators. Where a narration appears in more than one major collection, all citations are included. The translator and foreword writer add commentary on the strength of the chain and the meaning of the text where needed.
"The translation of this essential text serves the valuable purposes of both keeping the generational obligation of reminding Muslims about the Dajjal as well as giving clarity in this present era of growing confusion which is rapidly increasing by the day."

About the Author
Those who knew Hafiz Abd al-Ghani al-Maqdisi said that no one among Ahl al-Sunnah saw him except that they fell in love with him.
Born in 541 AH, he traveled across the Islamic world in pursuit of hadith, studying in Damascus, Alexandria, Jerusalem, Egypt, Baghdad, Isfahan, and Mosul. His gatherings in Damascus drew crowds that filled the hall. He authored al-Ahkam al-Kubra and al-Ahkam al-Sughra. His vision weakened in his later years from a lifetime of reading, writing, and weeping.
He passed away in Cairo in 600 AH, just under sixty years old, and was buried in the Qarafah graveyard in Egypt.

From the Book
"I warn you of him. There is no Prophet except that he warned his people of him. I will tell you something that no other Prophet told his people. Know that he is one-eyed, and Allah is not one-eyed."
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him -- narrated by Ibn Umar
"Extreme anger is that which will cause the Dajjal to emerge."
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him -- narrated by Hafsa
"He has three signs: he is one-eyed, and your Lord is not one-eyed. No animal besides a donkey will be subjugated to him. Between his eyes is written 'kafir'. Every literate and illiterate person will be able to read it."
Narrated by Abu al-Tufayl from Hudhayfah ibn Usayd
"I have narrated to you about the Dajjal to the point that I fear you will not understand. He has kinky hair and is one-eyed. Know that your Lord is not one-eyed, and that you will not see your Lord until after you die."
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him -- narrated by Ubadah ibn al-Samit
"Allah is not one-eyed. The Dajjal has a defective right eye, as if it were a floating grape."
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him -- narrated by Ibn Umar
"If the Hour occurs and a man is planting a tree, he should continue to plant the tree."
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him
