The Dajjal's continued life and the long lifespan of some creatures

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh:
That is, they mean that the Dajjal is long-lived, and that the cloud reached him, as in the hadith of al-Jusayyah. Allah is capable of everything; He extends the life of some people. Yes.

The questioner:
Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh:
He says that Allah keeps a person alive for more than a hundred years. This is the general rule, though a person may live longer for a purpose that Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, wills. Yes.

The questioner:
Peace be upon you. This second questioner brings up the Dajjal, al-Jusayyah, and al-Khidr. The hadith of the hundred years. The second questioner's question is long; it brings up the Dajjal in the hadith of the hundred years, which no one reads.

The Shaykh:
This is it, my brother. Allah is capable of everything. The general rule is that a person does not live more than a hundred years, but some of the created beings live longer than that if Allah wills wisdom in that for them. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
