Summary
Malik transmits from Nafi, from Abdullah ibn Umar, that the Messenger of God ﷺ said: I was shown last night near the Kaaba a man, brown-skinned, the most handsome of brown-skinned men you have seen, with hair as handsome as hair can be, combed, dripping with water, leaning on two men or on the shoulders of two men, circling the Kaaba. I asked: who is this? It was said: this is the Messiah, son of Mary. Then I saw a curly-haired man, blind in the right eye, like a floating grape. I asked: who is this? It was said: this is the Dajjal. The editor notes the chain of the hadith and its sources in Malik. 1
