Is it permissible for a Muslim to kill any Dajjal who claims prophethood?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : One Dajjal, meaning, for example, one who writes wounds from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Meaning, he brings benefit, just as the Companions did.
The Shaykh : How do you mean?
The questioner : Now we are doing a tweet like this.
The Shaykh : If you have authority, then kill him. And if you do not have authority but you are able to kill him without fitnah (trial, discord or temptation), then kill him.
The questioner : He says, "No problem."
The Shaykh : Yes, killing without fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). And if he cannot be killed except through a fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) that leads to a greater harm than his remaining alive, then do not do it, because a wrong (munkar) is not permissible to be removed by something greater than it.
