" إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ نَبِيٌّ إِلَّا وَقَدْ أَنْذَرَ الدَّجَّالَ أُمَّتَهُ، أَلَا وَإِنَّهُ أَعْوَرُ عَيْنِ الشِّمَالِ، وَبِالْيُمْنَى ظَفَرَةٌ غَلِيظَةٌ، بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ كَافِرٌ - يَعْنِي مَكْتُوبٌ: ك ف ر - وَيَخْرُجُ مَعَهُ وَادِيَانِ أَحَدُهُمَا جَنَّةٌ وَأُخْرَى نَارٌ، فَنَارُهُ جَنَّةٌ وَجَنَّتُهُ نَارٌ، فَيَقُولُ الدَّجَّالُ لِلنَّاسِ: أَلَسْتُ رَبَّكُمْ أُحْيِي وَأُمِيتُ ؟ وَمَعَهُ نَبِيَّانِ مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ إِنِّي لَأَعْرِفُ اسْمَهُمَا وَاسْمَ آبَائِهِمَا، لَوْ شِئْتُ أَنْ أُسَمِّيَهُمَا سَمَّيْتُهُمَا، أَحَدُهُمَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَالْآخَرُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ، فَيَقُولُ: أَلَسْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ أُحْيِي وَأُمِيتُ ؟ فَيَقُولُ أَحَدُهُمَا: كَذَبْتَ - فَلَا يَسْمَعُهُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ إِلَّا صَاحِبُهُ، وَيَقُولُ الْآخَرُ: صَدَقْتَ - وَيَسْمَعُهُ النَّاسُ وَذَلِكَ فِتْنَةٌ، ثُمَّ يَسِيرُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَيَقُولُ: هَذِهِ قَرْيَةُ ذَاكَ الرَّجُلِ، فَلَا يُؤْذَنُ لَهُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَهَا، ثُمَّ يَسِيرُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ الشَّامَ فَيُهْلِكَهُ اللهُ عِنْدَ عَقَبَةِ أَفِيقٍ
✧ There has been no prophet who did not warn his nation about the Dajjal. Indeed he is blind in the left eye, and on the right eye there is a thick white film. Between his eyes is written “kafir” – meaning the letters k, f, r. With him will come two valleys, one of them a garden and the other a fire. His fire is a garden and his garden is a fire. The Dajjal will say to the people: “Am I not your Lord? I give life and cause death.” With him will be two prophets, and I know their names and the names of their fathers. If I wished I could name them. One of them will be on his right and the other on his left. He will say: “Am I not your Lord? I give life and cause death.” One of them will say: “You lie,” but no one will hear him except his companion. The other will say: “You speak truth,” and the people will hear him. That is a trial. Then he will travel until he comes to Madinah and say: “This is the town of that man,” but he will not be permitted to enter it. Then he will travel until he comes to Syria, and Allah will destroy him at the pass of Afiq.

" الْخِلَافَةُ فِي أُمَّتِي ثَلَاثُونَ سَنَةً، ثُمَّ يَكُونُ مُلْكٌ. ثُمَّ قَالَ سَفِينَةُ: امْسِكْ؛ خِلَافَةُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، وَخِلَافَةُ عُمَرَ ثِنْتَا عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً وَسِتَّةُ أَشْهُرٍ، وَخِلَافَةُ عُثْمَانَ ثِنْتَا عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً، ثُمَّ خِلَافَةُ عَلِيٍّ تَكْمِلَةُ الثَّلَاثِينَ. قُلْتُ: فَمُعَاوِيَةُ ؟ قَالَ: كَانَ أَوَّلَ الْمُلُوكِ
✧ The caliphate in my nation is thirty years, then there will be kingship.” Then Safinah said: “Hold on: the caliphate of Abu Bakr, and the caliphate of Umar – twelve years and six months, the caliphate of Uthman – twelve years, then the caliphate of Ali completes the thirty. I said: What about Mu'awiyah? He said: He was the first of the kings.
