The questioner : Is the Messiah al-Dajjal from the offspring of Adam?
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Is the Messiah al-Dajjal from the offspring of Adam?
The Shaykh : Yes, the Messiah al-Dajjal is from the offspring of Adam, there is no doubt in that.
The questioner : And is he currently present?
The Shaykh : But he is a wicked man; he is not present. It appears to me that he is not present. As for the hadith of al-Jusayyisah, there is something in it that gives me pause; it does not appear to me to be an authentic hadith because of the confusion in it and the anomaly in some of its wordings.
The questioner : But something was reported regarding his fate on the Day of Resurrection?
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Something was reported regarding his fate on the Day of Resurrection?
The Shaykh : Every disbeliever is in the Fire, and he is one of the disbelievers, so the original ruling is that he is among the people of the Fire, because it is 'Isa (peace be upon him) who will kill him, as he is a disbeliever.
The questioner : We heard, O Shaykh, that some attribute to you the statement that he was present during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the story of Tamim al-Dari, and then you denied his presence based on the hadith:?
The Shaykh : No, no, we never said that.
The questioner : Is it not correct?
The Shaykh : Yes, from the beginning, we doubt the authenticity of the hadith of Tamim al-Dari regarding the story of al-Jusayyisah. Yes.
