Sahih al-Bukhari 6859 (Book 92, Hadith 75)
Ka`ba. Behold, I saw a reddish-white man with lank hair, and water was dropping from his head. I
asked, “Who is this?’ They replied, ‘The son of Mary.’ Then I turned my face to see another man with
a huge body, red complexion and curly hair and blind in one eye. His eye looked like a protruding out
grape. They said (to me), He is Ad-Dajjal.” The Prophet (ﷺ) added, “The man he resembled most is Ibn
Qatan, a man from the tribe of Khuza`a. “
“ بَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ أَطُوفُ بِالْكَعْبَةِ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ آدَمُ سَبْطُ الشَّعَرِ يَنْطُفُ ـ أَوْ يُهَرَاقُ ـ رَأْسُهُ مَاءً قُلْتُ مَنْ هَذَا قَالُوا ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ. ثُمَّ ذَهَبْتُ أَلْتَفِتُ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ جَسِيمٌ أَحْمَرُ جَعْدُ الرَّأْسِ أَعْوَرُ الْعَيْنِ، كَأَنَّ عَيْنَهُ عِنَبَةٌ طَافِيَةٌ قَالُوا هَذَا الدَّجَّالُ. أَقْرَبُ النَّاسِ بِهِ شَبَهًا ابْنُ قَطَنٍ ”. رَجُلٌ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ.
