Ad-Dajjal

English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abud-Darda' (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said: "Whoever commits to memory the first ten Ayat of the Surat Al-Kahf, will be protected from (the trial of) Ad-Dajjal (Antichrist).''
[Muslim Book 04, Chapter 135, Hadith # 1766].
In another narration, the Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said: "(Whoever commits to memory) the last ten Ayat of Surat Al-Kahf, he will be protected from (the trial of) Ad-Dajjal (Antichrist).'' [Muslim Book 04, Chapter 135, Hadith # 1767].
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Kahf Ayat 02. "(He has made it) Straight to give warning" Ad-Dajjal will appear sometime before Yaum-ul-Qiyamah. Allah, the Almighty will give him some supernatural powers the manifestation of which will shake the faith of many people. For this reason, this will be a serious trial. All Prophets warned their people against him. Our Prophet (PBUH) also warned us against him and ordered us to guard ourselves from it and strictly advised us to seek Refuge of Allah against it. This Hadith tells us the way to save ourselves from Ad-Dajjal. The recitation of the first or the last ten Ayat of Surat Al-Kahf, in the morning and evening, is very useful for this purpose. Sheikh Al-Albani has, however, regarded the last ten Ayat probably and the first ten Ayat surely effective against this mischief.
