Clarifying the Reality of the Dajjal's Miracles
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner asks: Are the miracles performed by the Dajjal real, or are they sorcery and illusion?
Answer:
They are sorcery and illusion, yes, like the miracles of sorcerers, the Dajjals, and magicians. They perform diabolical miracles that have no truth. The term "miracles" (kharqat) refers to things that depart from the norm. Things that depart from the norm, if they are on the hand of a [person], they are dark; if they are on the hand of a wali (close friend of Allah), they are [divine decree]. And if they are on the hand of a disbeliever or a Shaytan, they are diabolical miracles with no reality. Miracles come through the hands of sorcerers, but they are invalid. They are diabolical. Therefore, the Bata'ihiyyah are a sect. A sect of the Sufis.
Their leader was refuted by the Shaykh al-Islam. They claim that they enter the fire and walk on the fire and it does not harm them. So Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah informed them and said, "Come, let us wash the [garden] in such and such, and let me and you enter." They said, "No," because they anoint their feet with ointments, which is not good. So may Allah have mercy on him, he burned them and showed his [pocket] with his [tobacco]. He said, "Come, let me and you wash our feet in such and such, and then let me and you enter." They said, "No." So he refuted them by that, and it became clear that they were liars. The Rafi'iyyah, their men are the Rafi'iyyah, their men are the Bata'ihiyyah and the Rafi'iyyah, yes.
