Da`eef (Weak) Hadeeth No:26 You will indeed battle the Mushrikeen until the last of you fight the Dajjaal at a river in Jordan

It has been narrated by Sa`ad in his Tabaqaat (422/7) and Al-Bazaar in his Musnad (137/4 - of az-Zawaaid) and Ibn Abee `Aasim in Al-Aahaad wal-Mathaani (2458) and others on the authority of Nuhaik bin Surayim As-Sakooni that the Prophet (sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam) said: "You will indeed battle the Mushrikeen (polytheist disbelievers) until the last of you fight the Dajjaal at a river in Jordan you will be on the east of it and they will be to the west of it."

And the narrator said: "And I don`t know where Jordan will be on earth at that time."

Its chain of narration is weak because in it is Muhammad bin Abaan Al Qurashy and Abu Daawood has declared him weak as did Ibn Ma`een and Al-Bukhaaree and others.

Our Shaikh, al-`Allaamah, al-Imaam, the knowledgeable ocean Abu `Abdir-Rahman Muhammad Naasir-ud-deen Al-Albaanee, may Allaah envelop him with His Divine Mercy, has recorded this hadeeth - showing its sources with detail - in his wondrous book, Silsilat-ul-ahadeeth ad-Da`eefah (The Collection of Weak Ahadeeth). Therein he has made clear its weakness. He (rahimahullaah) said: "I have written this because of what has increased in the inquiries about it with regards to the Jews taking over the West bank from Jordan in the first of June of the year 1967. May Allaah curse them and humiliate them and purify the country from them and from their helpers." And Allaah Knows best.
