Sahih al-Bukhari 3298 (Book 60, Hadith 111)
circumambulating the Ka`ba (in my dream), suddenly I saw a man of brown complexion and lank hair
walking between two men, and water was dropping from his head. I asked, ‘Who is this?’ The people
said, ‘He is the son of Mary.’ Then I looked behind and I saw a red-complexioned, fat, curly-haired
man, blind in the right eye which looked like a bulging out grape. I asked, ‘Who is this?’ They replied,
‘He is Ad-Dajjal.’ The one who resembled to him among the people, was Ibn Qatar.” (Az-Zuhri said,
“He (i.e. Ibn Qatan) was a man from the tribe Khuza`a who died in the pre-lslamic period.”)
“ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ أَطُوفُ بِالْكَعْبَةِ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ آدَمُ سَبْطُ الشَّعَرِ، يُهَادَى بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ، يَنْطِفُ رَأْسُهُ مَاءً أَوْ يُهَرَاقُ رَأْسُهُ مَاءً فَقُلْتُ مَنْ هَذَا قَالُوا ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ، فَذَهَبْتُ أَلْتَفِتُ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ أَحْمَرُ جَسِيمٌ، جَعْدُ الرَّأْسِ، أَعْوَرُ عَيْنِهِ الْيُمْنَى، كَأَنَّ عَيْنَهُ عِنَبَةٌ طَافِيَةٌ. قُلْتُ مَنْ هَذَا قَالُوا هَذَا الدَّجَّالُ. وَأَقْرَبُ النَّاسِ بِهِ شَبَهًا ابْنُ قَطَنٍ ”. قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ هَلَكَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ.
