Sheikh Imran Hosein: 'Dajjal and the Symbolism in the End Times' [23-June-12]

Dajjal (Antichrist) & Symbolism in the End Times
Lecture By World Renowned Islamic Scholar Sheikh Imran Nazar Hosein.
Lecture Held on 3 Sha'ban 1433H / 23 June 2012 at Urban Village, Bangsar, Malaysia.

al-Masih ad-Dajjal (Arabic: المسيح الدجّال‎ al-Masīḥ ad-Dajjāl, Arabic for "the false messiah"), is an evil figure in Islamic eschatology. He is to appear pretending to be Masih (i.e. the Messiah) at a time in the future, before Yawm al-Qiyamah (Judgment Day), directly comparable to the figures of the Antichrist and Armilus in Christian and Jewish eschatology, respectively.

Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. is reported to have said:
"Allah is not one eyed while Messiah Ad-Dajjal is blind in the right eye and his eye looks like a bulging out grape".

Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: Allah's Apostle said. "While I was sleeping, I saw myself (in a dream) performing Tawaf around the Ka'ba. Behold, I saw a reddish-white man with lank hair, and water was dropping from his head. I asked, "Who is this?' They replied, 'The son of Mary.' Then I turned my face to see another man with a huge body, red complexion and curly hair and blind in one eye. His eye looked like a protruding out grape. They said (to me), He is Ad-Dajjal."
