These days, there is a lot of talk about Dajjal all over the world. Podcasts are being made about him on social media, and other channels are commenting about him. You will find this character in many religions. For now, we will talk about the followers of Islam, because the purpose of my website is to clarify the difference between Deen and religion, and to explain those stories and traditions upon which Allah’s Deen has been turned into a religion.
Is the name of Dajjal mentioned in the Quran? The answer is — No. The entire Quran is silent about such an important character! Why? Think!
This character is a creation of traditions, which today everyone considers to be the source of Islam. Those books which are the creation of the human mind! Just as unworthy heirs dealt with Allah’s previous revealed books — mixing the original and the copy so thoroughly that all of Allah’s teachings were changed according to their own desires. The same thing happened with the Quran — its teachings could not be changed, but they fabricated traditions according to their own wishes and attributed them to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Just as John fabricated things about Prophet Issa (AS) and created the religion of Christianity. Today we have Islam as a religion in the same way.
Dajjal is a negative character who wants to control the entire world according to his will. Such a character has always existed in the Quran, known to the Muslim Ummah by the name of “Iblees”.
He asked Allah for respite so that he could lead the progeny of mankind astray from Your guidance. Because in his view, he was wronged. He was better than Adam. He deserved the right of Khilafat. Allah called him ungrateful and wretched and declared that those who are My servants will continue to receive My guidance, and whoever follows you — I will send you and all of them to Hell.
The Quran, which is the word of Allah, in which every small and large matter has been explained clearly. Think — why would it remain silent about Dajjal? That Dajjal about whom it is said that he will bring an end to the world. He will come when the world is going to end and no one knows when this world will end except Allah! But the Muslim Ummah does not understand — because they believe in those traditions instead of Allah’s guidance. If they read the Quran with understanding, it is clearly mentioned repeatedly about ancient nations that they were not only far superior to us in power but also far ahead of us in intelligence. But since they drifted away from Allah’s guidance, they ultimately met their terrible end. It has been Allah’s law that a nation that drifts away from guidance will oppress itself and ultimately be destroyed. Then Allah will bring another nation to rule over them.
Through archaeology, we will find evidence of many such nations that no longer exist among us — only their remnants tell us how great they were, but they ended up oppressing themselves.
This is our situation too. Instead of correcting our deeds, we are waiting for Dajjal to come and destroy us. But he won’t be able to — because we have another Messenger coming back and there will be an Imam who will guide us and save us from Dajjal.
But the original book of guidance that we have — the Quran — which is our Messenger and our Imam, we will not read it, and instead fill our lives with those books of narrations and traditions!
Instead of opening the one book of guidance given by Allah, we will just read all those other numerous books and live our lives according to them!!
I always say that every person is responsible for their own deeds. You have the choice of whose guidance to follow. It is obligatory upon you to read this book of guidance yourself, with understanding.
The decision is yours, the action is yours — because you yourself have to be accountable for it.
Allah is the Protector and Helper of us all.
