Would Gog and Magog be sent/raised after Jesus pbuh has returned and after he has killed Dajjal?

 

An Islamic View of Gog Magog in the Modern World

 

 

Would Gog and Magog be sent/raised after Jesus (‘alaihi al-Salam) has returned and after he has killed Dajjal? (Hadith)

“.  .  .  It will be under such conditions that Allah will reveal to Jesus these words: I have brought forth from among My servants such people against whom none will be able to fight; you take these people safely to the mountain, (fa yab’athullahu Y’ajuja wa M’ajuj) and then (in those periods of history which lead to such events) Allah will send or raise Gog and Magog (this does not necessarily imply that the release or unleashing of Gog and Magog will have to take place only after Jesus returns) and they will spread out in every direction or occupy every place of advantage. The first of them will pass by Lake Tiberias (i.e. the Sea of Galilee) and drink out of it and when the last of them would pass (and that would have to be a very long time later), he will say: ‘There was once water here .  .  .  .’” (Sahih Muslim)

 

This Hadith has been almost universally understood to state or imply that the release of Gog and Magog into the world cannot take place until Jesus (‘alaihi as-Salam) has returned and has killed Dajjal. This book rejects the use of such a defective methodology which focuses attention on a solitary Hadith interpreted in a way that nullifies all the evidence to the contrary that has been amassed from both the Qur’an and Ahadith.
