Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ،‏.‏ وَقَالَ لِي خَلِيفَةُ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَمِّ، نَبِيِّكُمْ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ رَأَيْتُ لَيْلَةَ أُسْرِيَ بِي مُوسَى رَجُلاً آدَمَ طُوَالاً جَعْدًا، كَأَنَّهُ مِنْ رِجَالِ شَنُوءَةَ، وَرَأَيْتُ عِيسَى رَجُلاً مَرْبُوعًا مَرْبُوعَ الْخَلْقِ إِلَى الْحُمْرَةِ وَالْبَيَاضِ، سَبْطَ الرَّأْسِ، وَرَأَيْتُ مَالِكًا خَازِنَ النَّارِ ‏"‏‏.‏ وَالدَّجَّالَ فِي آيَاتٍ أَرَاهُنَّ اللَّهُ إِيَّاهُ، فَلاَ تَكُنْ فِي مِرْيَةٍ مِنْ لِقَائِهِ‏.‏ قَالَ أَنَسٌ وَأَبُو بَكْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ تَحْرُسُ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ الْمَدِينَةَ مِنَ الدَّجَّالِ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn Bashshar narrated to us: Ghundar narrated to us: Shuʿba narrated to us, from Qatada. Khalifa also said to me: Yazid ibn Zurayʿ narrated to us: Saʿid narrated to us, from Qatada, from Abu al-ʿAliya: the cousin of your Prophet—meaning Ibn ʿAbbas (may Allah be pleased with them both)—narrated to us, from the Prophet (ﷺ), who said: ‘On the night I was taken on the Night Journey, I saw Moses: a tall, dark-complexioned, curly-haired man, as if he were one of the men of Shanua. I saw Jesus: a man of medium height and build, with a complexion tending between red and white, and straight hair. I saw Malik, the keeper of the Fire, and the Dajjal among the signs Allah showed me. So do not doubt meeting him.’ Anas and Abu Bakra related from the Prophet (ﷺ): ‘Angels guard Madinah against the Dajjal.’
