حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْخُزَاعِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " يَأْتِي الدَّجَّالُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَيَجِدُ الْمَلاَئِكَةَ يَحْرُسُونَهَا فَلاَ يَدْخُلُهَا الطَّاعُونُ وَلاَ الدَّجَّالُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ " . قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَفَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ وَأُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَسَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدَبٍ وَمِحْجَنٍ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ .

‘Abdah ibn ‘Abd Allāh al-Khuzā‘ī al-Baṣrī narrated to us; Yazīd ibn Hārūn narrated to us; Shu‘bah informed us, from Qatādah, from Anas, who said that the Messenger of Allah said: “The Dajjāl will come to Madinah and find angels guarding it. Neither the plague nor the Dajjāl will enter it, if Allah wills.”
Abū ‘Īsā said: Reports on this topic are also related from Abū Hurayrah, Fāṭimah bint Qays, Usāmah ibn Zayd, Samurah ibn Jundub, and Miḥjan. This is a ṣaḥīḥ hadith.
