حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، رضى الله عنه قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَا بُعِثَ نَبِيٌّ إِلاَّ أَنْذَرَ أُمَّتَهُ الأَعْوَرَ الْكَذَّابَ، أَلاَ إِنَّهُ أَعْوَرُ، وَإِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ لَيْسَ بِأَعْوَرَ، وَإِنَّ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ مَكْتُوبٌ كَافِرٌ ". فِيهِ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم.
Anas Narrated from:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "No prophet was sent but that he warned his followers against the one-eyed liar (Ad-Dajjal). Beware! He is blind in one eye, and your Lord is not so, and there will be written between his (Ad-Dajjal's) eyes (the word) Kafir (i.e., disbeliever)." (This Hadith is also quoted by Abu Huraira and Ibn `Abbas).

Summary of Sahih Bukhari Hadith 7131
This hadith about the one-eyed liar gives clear signs of Ad-Dajjal. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said that every prophet warned his followers against him. The hadith mentions that Dajjal is blind in one eye, while Allah is not one-eyed. It also states that the word Kafir will be written between Dajjal’s eyes. The core message is warning and recognition. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم did not leave the believers without guidance about this dangerous trial. This hadith helps people search for Dajjal signs in hadith, the one-eyed liar hadith, and Kafir written on Dajjal. It teaches that false claims must be judged by the truth taught by revelation.
What we learn from this hadith
- All prophets warned their followers about the danger of Dajjal.
- Dajjal has clear signs mentioned in the hadith.
- Allah is far above the defects described in Dajjal.
- Believers should take prophetic warnings seriously.
