The story of the Dabbah that will emerge in the end times

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the story of the Dabbah that will emerge in the end times, and how will it speak to people?

Answer:
This is one of the signs of the Hour: the emergence of the Dabbah, and that it will speak to people and mark them. It will place a mark of faith on the believer and a mark of disbelief on the disbeliever. This is in the end times.
And when the word befalls them, We will bring forth for them a creature from the earth speaking to them, [saying] that the people were, of Our verses, not certain [in faith].وَإِذَا وَقَعَ الْقَوْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَخْرَجْنَا لَهُمْ دَابَّةً مِّنَ الْأَرْضِ تُكَلِّمُهُمْ أَنَّ النَّاسَ كَانُوا بِآيَاتِنَا لَا يُوقِنُونَ
[An-Naml 27:82]
This is one of the signs of the Hour. We do not speak about it beyond what has come in the Qur'an and the Sunnah. We do not speak about it because this is part of the knowledge of the unseen, so we restrict ourselves to what has come in the Book and the Sunnah regarding its descriptions and its actions. As for the place of its emergence, no evidence has been established regarding it. Allah knows best. Allah will bring it forth from wherever He wills. Yes.
