Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ مَا سَأَلَ أَحَدٌ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ عَنِ الدَّجَّالِ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا سَأَلْتُهُ - وَقَالَ ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ أَشَدَّ سُؤَالاً مِنِّي - فَقَالَ لِي ‏"‏ مَا تَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ إِنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ مَعَهُ الطَّعَامَ وَالشَّرَابَ قَالَ ‏ "‏ هُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Al-Mughirah ibn Shu‘bah said: No one asked the Prophet more about the Dajjal than I did. Ibn Numayr’s version says, ‘No one questioned him more insistently than I did.’ He said to me, ‘What are you asking about him?’ I replied, ‘People say that he will have food and drink with him.’ He said, ‘He is too insignificant in Allah’s sight for that.’
