A man asks about the validity of his interpretation regarding the duration of the Dajjal’s time: “A day like a year, a day like a month, and a day like a week”

Question:
May Allah reward you. This is a listener from Iraq who sent a long letter. His name is the brother Kan'an al-Watani. He begins by saying: “As for what follows, I have an interpretation that I hope is correct, and I do not rely on it unless I hear it from you, with my utmost respect and appreciation for all your scholars. He says: It was mentioned in the Islamic Education magazine, issue and date, regarding al-Nu'as, as narrated by Muslim from al-Nu'as ibn Sam'an (may Allah be pleased with him), in his words: This period is other than the Dajjal, and naturally he will live before this period and after it, meaning more than forty days. He says: And in Ibn Kathir’s Tafsir, volume three, page [number], his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): . Here it becomes clear to us that the Dajjal’s duration is forty months or forty years. And the rising of the sun from the west is the first hadith, which says: The speed of the earth’s rotation on its axis decreases, so the day becomes like a week, then it decreases so the day becomes like a month, then it decreases so the day becomes like a year, then it stops and then moves in the opposite direction, so the sun will rise from the west, then it speeds up, then the day becomes like a month, then it speeds up so it becomes like a week, and it speeds up so the day becomes like our days. He says: Scientifically, the speed of the earth’s rotation on its axis is great, and if it stopped and moved in the opposite direction in a short period, those on it would be killed and it would explode because its interior is liquid. Therefore, the period became 40 days, part of which is a week, a month, and a year, meaning more than 40 ordinary days. And this period is scientifically sufficient to change the rising of the sun so that humans do not die and the earth does not explode. I ask for guidance regarding what I mentioned in this letter, with my respect and appreciation for you and my prayers for your success.”

Answer:
The guidance is to keep the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) as it came, and as for this interpretation he mentioned, it is from his own mind and his innovation, so it is not to be relied upon. We keep the hadith of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) as it came, and if it happens, reality will explain it at that time. Yes, this is among the future matters and the unseen things that no one knows except Allah, and we do not intervene in them with our ideas and reports. Then, where did he get this information about the sun? Did he encompass the sun and encompass the celestial bodies? No, they are mere conjectures. Yes.
