Jasad Al-Dajjal
جسد الدجال
Text Size:
Jasad al-Dajjal refers to the physical form or body of the False Messiah as described in Islamic eschatology. Narrations detail specific physical characteristics to help believers recognise him, such as being "Awar" (one-eyed), with his right eye resembling a floating grape. Between his eyes, the letters "K-F-R" (meaning Kafir or disbeliever) will be written, which every literate and illiterate believer will be able to read. These descriptions emphasize that despite his immense power and the deceptions he will perform, his physical flaws reveal his true nature as a pretender and a created being. The Prophet (peace be upon him) described the Dajjal in detail to warn his Ummah. He said: "The Dajjal will emerge from the east, from Khurasan. He will be followed by seventy thousand Jews from Isfahan, wearing Persian shawls. He will be one-eyed, with his right eye like a floating grape, and between his eyes will be written 'Kafir' which every believer will read" (Muslim). The physical description of the Dajjal serves multiple purposes. First, it helps believers recognize him when he appears. Second, it reveals his imperfection,he is not divine, as he claims, but a created being with physical flaws. Third, it emphasizes that discernment in the end times is a matter of spiritual insight. The letters "Kafir" between his eyes are visible only to believers, not to disbelievers, indicating that faith provides clarity. For believers, the description of the Dajjal is a reminder to strengthen their faith. They memorize the first ten verses of Surah Al-Kahf for protection. They seek refuge in Allah from his trial in every prayer. They remain steadfast in their belief, knowing that falsehood, no matter how powerful, will ultimately be defeated. The Dajjal's physical appearance also teaches that true worth is not in outward appearance. The Dajjal will have miraculous powers, but his inner reality is falsehood. The believer looks beyond appearances to the truth of faith. The ultimate victory over the Dajjal will be achieved by Prophet Isa (peace be upon him), who will kill him at the gate of Ludd. The believer awaits that day with hope, trusting that truth will prevail over falsehood.
