On the
location of the Dajjal(anti-Christ) in present times.
The
reader is asked to refer to the hadith below of the Blessed Holy
Prophet Muhammed on the case of Tamim al Dari, a new convert from
Christianity to Islam, who was caught in a storm and then transported
to an island (along with 30 other sailors) where he met the Dajjal
who was chained.
The
reader is to note that all ships of this period,1400 years ago, were
wind reliant in order to sail the seas. The wind-powered craft called
the Arab Dhow is one such vessel which is able to sail the seas as
well as carry a crew of between 30 to 40 people.

| Arab Dhow. Can you count how many onboard? |

It
was an excellent vessel and could sail for long voyages but it had a
daily mileage of around 30 to 50 km depending on wind conditions and
rations on board.
It
is very likely that Tamim al Dari was in such a vessel and being
caught in a storm that lasted for a month, finally landed on an
island.
The Somali
Current
The
Somali current is very useful for bringing the sea-faring Arabs to
Iran,Persian Gulf regions, India and Indonesia (Spice Islands) as
well as to Madagascar and Africa. The current is active throughout
the year and is strongest during the South-West Monsoons which start
in June and tapers off in August. For more details please see this
link http://www-pord.ucsd.edu/~ltalley/sio210/Indian/index.html
The
current then reverses and flows from Northeast to Southwest in
November to January, this being the Northeast Monsoon.

Current, courtesy wikipedia. Map 1.
As
you can see the current flows northwards and this is where I
postulate that Tamim was caught in one of the eddies - be it the
Great Whirl or the Socotra Eddy- resulting in the ship being “storm
tossed for a month...”. They finally made it out either due to
weakening of the Monsoon winds or were fortunate to have steered out
and landed on the island of the Dajjal. This would have carried them
off to somewhere near the island of Masirah which is located off the
coast of Oman or even further north to the Gulf of Oman which is the
most likely location. There is a reason for this supposition.
The Island
of Masirah.
This
is essentially a large desert island, about 90 km in length and can
be seen on the above map near the word “Oman”. It was made famous
by the failed attempt of USA to rescue hostages held in the US
embassy in Tehran in 1980. You can read more about the US debacle and
how they lost many men and aircraft trying to land outside of Tehran
in the desert - Operation Eagle Claw. The Eagle got whacked
here.
This
island has an airport that was used by the US as a forward staging
post to attack Iran in 1980 under the Carter regime.
The
airport is still in use by the Omani government. This island is
likely NOT the island of the Dajjal. So where is this island?
The Island
of the Dajjal.
The story
of Tameem al Dari and the Dajjal.
Fatimah bint
Qays said,' I heard the voice of the caller, the caller of the
Messenger of Allah saying,' Al-salatu jaami’ah' so I went out to
the mosque and I prayed with the Messenger of Allah. I was in the
women’s row that was closest to the people. When the Messenger of
Allah had finished his prayer, he sat on the minbar and he was
smiling. He said, “Let each person stay in the place where he just
prayed.” Then he said, “Do you know why I called you together?”
They said,' Allah and His Messenger know best.'
He said, “By
Allah, I did not call you together for an exhortation or for a
warning. I have called you together because Tameem al-Dari was a
Christian and he came and swore allegiance and became Muslim, and
told me something which agrees with what I was telling you about the
Dajjal. He told me that he sailed in a ship with thirty men of Lakhm
and Judhaam and they were tossed by the waves of the sea for a month.
Then they came to an island at sunset. They sat in a small
rowing-boat and landed on that island. They were met by a beast with
a great deal of hair and they could not distinguish his face from his
back because he was so hairy. They said, ‘Woe to you, what are
you?’ It said, ‘I am al-Jassaasah.’ They said, ‘What is
al-Jassaasah?’ It said, ‘Oh people, go to this man in the
monastery for he is keen to know about you.’ Tameem al dari said,'
When it named a man for us we were afraid of it lest it be a devil.'
Then we set
off, rushing, until we came to that monastery, where we found the
hugest man we had ever seen, bound strongly in chains with his hands
tied to his neck and his legs bound from the knees to the ankles with
iron shackles. We said, ‘Woe to you, who are you?’ He said, ‘You
will soon find out about me, tell me who you are?’ They said, ‘We
are people from Arabia who embarked on a ship, but the sea became
wild and the waves tossed us about for one month, then they brought
us to this island of yours. We took to the rowing boats and landed on
this island. We were met by a beast with a great deal of hair and we
could not tell his front from his back because he was so hairy. We
said,' Woe to you, what are you?' It said,' I am al-Jassaasah.' We
said,' What is al-Jassaasah?' It said,' Go to this man in the
monastery for he is keen to know about you.' So we came rushing to
you and we fled from it because we could not be sure that it was not
a devil.’
He (that
chained person) said, ‘Tell me about the date-palm trees of
Baysaan.’ We said, ‘What do you want to know about them?’ He
said, ‘I am asking you whether these trees bear fruit?’ We said,
‘Yes.’ He said, ‘Soon they will not bear fruit.’ He said,
‘Tell me about the lake of Tabariyyah’ We said, ‘What do you
want to know about it?’ He said, ‘Is there water in it?’ They
said, ‘There is a great deal of water in it.’ He said, ‘Soon it
will dry up.’ Then he said, ‘Tell me about the spring of Zughar
(which is in the south of Syria).’ They said, ‘What do you want
to know about it?’ He said, ‘Is there water in the spring and do
the people grow crops with the water of the spring?’ We said to
him, ‘Yes, there is plenty of water in it and the people grow crops
with its water.’
He said,
‘Tell me about the unlettered Prophet, what has he done?’ We
said, ‘He has left Makkah and has settled in Yathrib.’ He said,
‘Do the Arabs fight against him?’ We said, ‘Yes.’ He said,
‘How did he deal with them?’ We told him that he had prevailed
over the Arabs in his vicinity and they had shown obedience to him.
He said to us, ‘Has it really happened?’ We said ‘Yes.’ He
said, ‘If it is so that is better for them that they show obedience
to him. Now I will tell you about myself. I am the Dajjal and soon I
will be given permission to emerge. So I will come out and travel in
the land, and will not spare any town but I will stay for forty
nights, except Makkah and Taybah (Madina). They are both forbidden to
me, every time I try to enter one of them, I will be met by an angel
with a sword in his hand, who will bar my way, and on every route
there will be angels guarding it.’
She
(Fatimah) said, 'Then the Messenger of Allah struck the minbar with
his staff and said, “This is Taybah, this is Taybah, this is
Taybah” meaning Madeenah.' “Did I not tell you this before?”
The people said,' Yes.' The prophet said, “I liked the story of
Tameem because it agrees with what I used to tell you about him and
about Makkah and Madina. But he is in the Syrian Sea (Mediterranean)
or the Yemeni Sea (Arabian Sea). No, rather he is in the East, he in
the East, he is in the East,” and he pointed towards the East with
his hand. She said,' I memorized this from the Messenger of Allah.'
(Muslim)
The
Blessed Holy Prophet said about the Dajjal in this famous hadith
“....he is in the East, he is in East,he is in the East”, meaning
that he is East of Taybah or Madinah.
Two possible
locations
If
I would draw a line from Mecca going eastwards and as you can see, it
points to a place just above North of the island of Masirah (see map
1).
If
on the other hand, I draw a line from Madinah, going Eastwards, it
would go towards the Gulf of Oman. It is possible that the island may
be located near the presently known UAE and Bahrain, where the 5th
Fleet of the arch satan, USA, has its naval command. Likely that
there is an island located in the sea near the town of Shinas on
mainland Oman or possibly near the Musandan peninsula. See map 2
below.
The Tribes
of Arabia

important tribes and Empire of the Arabian Peninsula at the dawn of
Islam (approximately 600 CE / 50 BH). (Courtesy wikicommons).
 |
| Tribes of Arabia circa 600 AD. |
|
As
you can see, the Arab tribe of Lakhm was in Iraq and Judham had its
origin in the Yemen but some time later migrated to Syria. These were
probably sea-faring Arabs unlike the desert arabs who were mostly
traders on caravan routes.

What are the
information we can use from the Hadith?
Fact
|
Inference
|
Logic
|
1. Tribe of Lakhm and Judham
|
Location in Arabian Peninsula on
opposite sides.See map3. Most likely trading partners.
|
Yes. Their journey was probably from
Red Sea to Persian Gulf for trade and vice versa,see map3.
|
2. Storm tossed for a month,see map4.
|
Affected by a great wind possibly part
of a cyclone or monsoon and adverse sea currents.
|
Very likely the SouthWest Monsoon,
which will bring them east. Occurs from June to September.see map
1.
|
3. 30 sailors
|
Used an Arab Dhow. Speed is limited to
about 30 to 50 km a day.
|
Yes, see picture and count the men.
Impossible for it to reach say England which is 20,000km away in
1 month.
|
4. Al Jasasah spoke in language they
understood.Likely Arabic.
|
Still likely on islands off Arabian
peninsula near the Gulf of Oman.
|
Yes
|
5. Dajjal similar
|
similar
|
Yes
|
6. Questions from dajjal
|
Predictions made by dajjal means that
he is being used as an oracle by the cult that has him in
chains.
|
The dajjalic system we face now has
been established and is run by the Yahudi banking monsters of
Rothschild. Dajjal is their “saint” and advisor.Yes.
|
7. “...in the East..” as mentioned
by the Blessed Holy Prophet.
|
Location is on lattitude 28 North drawn
from Medina eastwards.
|
Yes. Island is located on coast off
Oman with an ancient castle/monastery. Oman has many such castles
on its mainland.
|
8. Cannot be in African territory or
England because these are South and North of Medina.
|
East of Medina as in 7.
|
Yes. Only possible location towards
Gulf of Oman.
|
9. Dajjal claims he will be let loose
soon. He will escape from the island to Iran and emerge in Isfahan.
|
Will be loose once the House of
Rothschild collapses. 70,000 jews await to follow him in Isfahan.
|
Yes, probable because Al-Mahdi will
destroy their system. Meanwhile the Dajjal plots vengeance until Isa (alaihisallam) returns to end it all.
|
10. The arabic
language was not spoken by many people 1400 years ago. This limits
the range from which the Dajjal can be found.
|
The Arabs were regarded as a barbaric
and ignorant tribe until the advent of the Blessed Holy Prophet Muhammed (sallalahualaiwassallam).
|
Yes. Most Dhows will travel close to
the coast and use winds blowing from the sea towards land for
navigation; the lateen sail of the Arab Dhow, an invention
utilised by the British for later ships.
|
As
always , blessings be upon the Holy Prophet and his family and
companions and praises be to Allah who knows All and is Most Merciful
to His servants.
This
work is entirely my own opinion and I will welcome your suggestions.
As always, ALLAH KNOWS BEST!
