حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
يَمْكُثُ أَبَوَا الدَّجَّالِ ثَلَاثِينَ عَامًا لَا يُولَدُ لَهُمَا، ثُمَّ يُولَدُ لَهُمَا غُلَامٌ أَعْوَرُ أَضَرُّ شَيْءٍ وَأَقَلُّهُ نَفْعًا، تَنَامُ عَيْنَاهُ وَلَا يَنَامُ قَلْبُهُ، ثُمَّ نَعَتَ أَبَوَيْهِ فَقَالَ: أَبُوهُ رَجُلٌ طُوَالٌ، مُضْطَرِبُ اللَّحْمِ، طَوِيلُ الْأَنْفِ كَأَنَّ أَنْفَهُ مِنْقَارٌ، وَأُمُّهُ امْرَأَةٌ فِرْضَاخِيَّةٌ، عَظِيمَةُ الثَّدْيَيْنِ. قَالَ: فَبَلَغَنَا أَنَّ مَوْلُودًا مِنَ الْيَهُودِ وُلِدَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ، قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقْتُ أَنَا وَالزُّبَيْرُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ حَتَّى دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَبَوَيْهِ فَرَأَيْنَا فِيهِمَا نَعْتَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، وَإِذَا هُوَ مُنْجَدِلٌ فِي الشَّمْسِ فِي قَطِيفَةٍ لَهُ هَمْهَمَةٌ، فَسَأَلْنَا أَبَوَيْهِ فَقَالَا: مَكَثْنَا ثَلَاثِينَ عَامًا لَا يُولَدُ لَنَا ثُمَّ وُلِدَ لَنَا غُلَامٌ أَعْوَرُ أَضَرُّ شَيْءٍ، وَأَقَلُّهُ نَفْعًا، فَلَمَّا خَرَجْنَا مَرَرْنَا بِهِ فَقَالَ: مَا كُنْتُمَا فِيهِ ؟ قُلْنَا: وَسَمِعْتَ ؟ ! قَالَ: نَعَمْ، إِنَّهُ تَنَامُ عَيْنَايَ وَلَا يَنَامُ قَلْبِي، فَإِذَا هُوَ ابْنُ صَيَّادٍ

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'The father of the Dajjal and hid mother, will abide for thirty years without bearing a son. Then a boy shall be born to them, having one eye in which there is some defect, providing little use. His eyes sleep but his heart does not sleep.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ described his parents for us: 'His father is tall, with little fat, with a nose as if it were a beak. His mother is a bulky woman with long breasts.'" So Abu Bakrah said: "I heard about a child being born to some Jews in Al-Madinah. So Az-Zubair bin Al-'Awwam and I went until we entered upon his parents. They appeared as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had described them. We said: 'Do you have any children?' They said: 'We remained for thirty years without any children being born to us, then we bore a boy, having one eye in which there is some defect, providing little use. His eyes sleep but his heart does not sleep.'" He said: "So we were leaving them, when he appeared, glittering in the sunlight in a velvet garment, murmuring something. He uncovered his head and said: 'What were you saying?' We said: 'Did you hear what we were saying?' He said: 'Yes, that my eyes sleep but my heart does not sleep.'"

في سنده علي بن زيد بن جدعان وهو ضعيف عند غير الترمذي
in مسند أحمد, p. 20683 - Abū Bakr Aḥmad b. al-Ḥusayn al-Bayhaqī
تفرد به علي بن زيد بن جدعان وليس بالقوي
in مسند أحمد, p. 20683 - Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī
يوهي الحديث أن أبا بكرة إنما أسلم لما نزل من الطائف حين حوصرت سنة ثمان من الهجرة وفي حديث ابن عمر الذي في الصحيحين أنه صلى الله عليه وسلم لما توجه إلى النخل التي فيها ابن صياد كان ابن صياد يومئذ كالمحتلم فمتى يدرك أبو بكرة زمان مولده بالمدينة وهو لم يسكن المدينة إلا قبل الوفاة النبوية بسنتين
in مسند أحمد, p. 20683
