Warnings From The Benevolents!

How gutless.

You could at least stay until October, after the years you've spent on here trying to convince everyone, fleeing in the last couple of weeks is just cowardice.

We have seen you prepping the flock for a non-event, so I suspect you know in your own mind that nothing will happen.

Admitting you were wrong takes humility and courage, we shall see if you come back here and demonstrate this or not. I will respect you if you do.

I just read a fair bit of the posts from this thread and am a bit lost. At the point where ET_MAN begins saying "where there is no time" and "filling in the blank", did he pretty much backtrack on the October 11th, 2011 date, and nothing is supposed to happen?

No brown dwarf, no flooding with his maps, etc?

What can you say about someone who will give a date for something happening, and then say "there is no time".
Either way his followers will praise him.

I've never known ET_MAN to express anything in a "gutless" way. But then we may have very different ideas of what courage and honor is. For example one person may think its towing the line and allowing negativity to flow through them so they bully and attack the Light when its speaks up. And their definition of gutless verus strength follows this Dog Eat Dog, tough guy, bully version. I know, I've seen this in action since the HH thread.

My definition, well I sort of gave it, sell outs to the pyramid bullies.

Someone who maintains integrity at all costs, and even when difficulties occur, and sets their boundaries, will forgo pleasure and home and comfort to do the right thing, is very much filled with strength. Nor will the details be discussed here.

You twist words so nicely I've noticed.

You, ACB, and Universal Light were a team effort on that thread. Universal Light actually was the one who called ACB on the thread. He encountered a miracle and Guides and Family. So Adonai, had a heart that was the closest to the message and really searching for real truth, though in his own way, his own perceptions. I was really happy and only wished I hadn't let anything upset me in the past.

The most interesting part here, is this wasn't what most skeptics would understand or relate to.

This was one of the crazy spiritual threads, those intangible things to most materialists. Yet the level of dark stuff, bullying, hostile attacks even calling ET_MAN paramount to a demon, some high ranking negative, for standing up for Love and the choices we make, that there is a right and wrong. It was unbelievable, as bad as a pre election debate.

Which brings something really important forward.

The Law Of One crowd, and we can't speak for everyone, for I'm sure there are some very rational, loving people into this to some extent, who like those in religions, use Discernment and weed out what doesnt resonate with them (ie. right and wrong are illusions and the negatives are only doing this for our own good). Valeri made a wonderful post here relating to that in depth, as he used to also follow this line of thought, except he also made exceptions and then questioned why he couldn't buy the whole package. He's a very deep thinker and weights things carefully.

But certain ones that respond to ET_MAN's message do so with such outrage at the very notion of challenging this belief, and viciously. And I actually told ET_MAN its like groupies, they talk of cults, but they're the ones in the "cult", then try to twist those speaking up from experiences and love and light and truth, into "cults". In fact, whatever words they use is a sure sign of what they're into.

And its like being a handmaid for these negative entities, who send out "runners" to you, when you are reading and accepting this work. Ra, in the law of one, actually said he would send out those runners to help people. Now, those runners, are not your friends, they're evil dark entities.

So, seemingly good metaphysical posters suddenly responding with this onslaught of anger. Because they were knowingly, or unkowingly, handmaid to Ra, a demiurge. One of the distorted ones that control the bloodlines.

Now this is why the debate is so strong, worse than a political debate almost.

Because what materilialists don't get, is the Bloodlines are very spiritual and some of them really belive the gnostic, Law of One, Scarcity Theory, Kabbala, distortions. They have been lied to by beings that are not ETs, not by my defininiton, though some negative ETs serve them, or Angels, again, not by my definition.

These beings are Shadow. Dark Side. They put in enough truth to lure, or activate that knowing in your heart, and then some major twists.

Now, can you follow this and still be loving. It really has to do with intent of heart and what one believes, however those really standing up strong for there being no right and wrong, and that bad things are being done for the good alarm me enormously and I really hope that they're not putting this into practice. They're already harming others if they encourage this and someone makes the wrong choice.

Adonai Christ Bless is actually the one who's heart really recognized the Light and Love and had strong feelings within himself, so the earlier difficulties really became more of a journey. All I was doing was relating exactly how I experienced what went on, and how it impacted me and my family, youngest son even. But was so happy that Love answers prayers and reaches hearts, and activates them.

In fact am only sorry to bring up the past again and truly not doing this to hurt his feelings. This is the long past, and we're all past that, water under the bridge and part of the learning in the school. So I deeply apologize if bringing up the points of the past, out of just detailing events from what occurred, because it relates to what is going on now in this attack, hurts him, just truly not my intention. I really feel ACB has a good heart. In fact, others may have felt upset or bad feelings at the miracles and changes that occurred. But then they also are called, the Truth is in them too. The Light is everlasting and eternal reaching out to them to shine the darkness away.

Now, the group that is so intent of ripping apart a very good person integrity, who has only written up a thread and put much information on it, so much akin to Lou Baldins'. And shared a timeline and warning he was given by his Contacts, are very transparent. Because they all started their aggressive war on a silly, spiritual thread, you know the kind that materialists view as nonsense. This is actually where this intent comes from.

They didnt' like the information he gave, such as One is Finite, and Infinity is Endlessness, inifnite variety, infinite persons/place/thing.

One is a pyramid. Invert that to infinite family and love/equality.

The power of love versus the love of power.

And controlling the spiritual seems to be their base line of control for the matrix, so its an all out war on real knowledge getting in.

If you read the HH thread you will see the kind of posts that were given that seemed to really incite quite a few responses. And to me, that really tells me where the military want to control, the illuminati. How important it is to control the minds/faith of the people.. THey would lose power.

I cannot give into this nonsense. Balancing the sensitivity of a person, their response to other ideas, with the need for humanity and the sensitivity they have to WARS, KARMIC ABUSES, CASTE SYSTEMS, just there is no comparison. Unshackle the mind and see through the religon traps, ie. use discernment. There are good messages mixed in with the Control stuff. A truly discerning person could make their own book with the light messages in all spiritual and throw all the rest away as codes, and propaganda. That HH thread had some really good posts by ET_MAN.

To the mitliary complex that wants to control religion and shove this other stuff. I will never obey you.

Hi Unity,

There are a few possiblilities imo for ET MAN's sudden departure from this thread:

1. If ET MAN meant every word that he wrote (and I'm inclined to believe he did) there is an intrinsic problem that arises, devoted followers. Now if the followers left all ie sold their homes, quit their jobs, etc...... then ET MAN is running a grave risk, a risk of destroying peoples' lives. I'm sure that he felt the weight of all the PMs, all the desperate pleas for help and advice from these people as the date drew near and no matter how often he disclaimed the accuracy of that date and that it was something we all face daily it was as if they never read those posts, or;

2. he enjoyed the constant devotion and PMs from the members and as he was ego driven he felt inclined to continue until the given date drew close and then jumped ship, or;

3. he was into it from the beginning as he sat in his mother's basement in his dark socks and underwear watching Snooky with a totino's pizza in hand or whatever, or;

4. cult time, working the boards, working on his book outline/bible, acquiring a few identies for the thread on different computers, reserving a great web site name (a sort of Tony Robbins site with a new twist of prophecy) and left when the heat was put to him, but;

really I think all the cult posts and his realization that some members might actually be that devoted is what scared him off. The skeptical members here helped him realize the situation. Some of the members were living for his words, never a good sign, hopefully it never went further than that......

Just my general opinion, if i've missed something please let me know.

Btw Beamish, I'll star you forever for each and every post, follow each and every word you write, send you pretty pictures and will meditate on you nightly in a nice, heartfelt way. Please consider starting a thread of your own so that I may sit at your feet and. . . . well, . . . . . we'll talk later, right?

I wouldn't use the word departure. And I can't talk about his personal life except to once again say, Light does not have an easy time in a dark world. And the courage, integrity, love, goodness still keeps on shining. He's a remarkable man.

A message of Love, and growing up, putting our lives in order, because there are bad things planned, by intent in a joint effort by the conrollers here and the dark side they follow, they're like middle managers for this group of entities/demiurges, those that enjoyed worship and insisted on sacrifice, basically the return of quetzcoatl or something coded into revelations, and yes some of this is definitely planned. They have plans, we won't like, and yet finding peace and forgiveness and not retaliating but keeping prayerful, faithful, through all times, the good and the bad, is important. ex of a cosmic event is a comet or meteor, which does not randomly hit a planet. Postiive, loving, equal, eutopias, don't attract consequence in the same manner. Its a frequency match. I wouldn't call his message of Quantum Christianity a cult. Its basically the core of the Christ's message, that he is giving.

I call the law of one, and the strong attack from those who think they can promote a blending between right and wrong, no responsibilty, after all harming is only love too, and don't forget, you're not real to begin with, we're all ONE, and yet God simply hasn't gotten it together in Infinity and is still learning primitive base lessons of greed and torture, because God is neutral, and low level, apparently quite a young entity for an ALL THAT IS.
That is a CULT.

And that is where the attack is coming from.

Nothing on the list applies. Think deeper, and realize that we're in a world were only the dark side controls the microphone, or gets the podium and if you're not playing ball with them.......and I call real courage the wilingness to persist.

The struggles I have within, relate to this dark side podium and their plans, because I know that if gets the point where people fall apart and harm each other due to their plans, well that is their intention. And if we were to take back our power with violence and their tactics, that is also giving into the dark side. But people let things slide, and then it builds up to this momentum. We can't. Love is only Love and of that Element only. It doesnt switch hats, and we can't let the darkness in. Standing ground, gently, saying to another who knocks at the door, "Are you leaving me no choice, and taking away my free will then? I cannot comply!" With dignity, but not attack. Helping others when possible. This is how Love responds.

But all along we had this responsiblity to do the work, to not be apathetic and using numbers, and communication and cooperation, groups, we had to meet up with them, and basically send on them on their way and not allow corruptioin to organize to this degree.

So there is a part in me that says, Bring It! Not on my Watch! Viva La Resistance! But that is immature. Its very childish.

Its not what Christ would do.

So its thinking deeper, gaining a clearer head, and really standing in Love, which is only One Element.

What has NOT been understood by any, is that you have witnessed the workings of GOD made manifest.

All the abuse and support is Part of this Process ET_MAN is going through....

Some blame the world, including Governments or just the common person, but sadly they are unable to understand this little world.

When we become honest with ourselves, we are then able to understand this process, but while we strive against each other, we are lost indeed.

But when we come to LOVE those that hate and despise us, we enter into a new world of Understanding....

1. First comes Truth.
2. Which leads to Knowledge (both the deception and the Truth)
3. And this Leads to Understanding,
4. Which then leads to Wisdom.
5. Which then leads to LOVE.

Which then leads to Eternal LIFE..... It is "The True Mind" that never dies.

We that is the "Partitions" of LIFE, already have Eternal LIFE and only have to come to know this, through passing through the 5 Stages given above in this post.


There is a reason for everything, and none has understood what has been going on with ET_MAN and have only considered their own beliefs.

The Door is about to be opened for this person, but none are able to understand his journey.

What has happened to ET_MAN will happen to every person on Earth, at one time or other.
We ALL have to pass through this at some time or other.....

It is part of coming to know the Truth.

First no matter who you are, you will first come to know the human being, and what part it plays in the ALL.

When this has truly happened, to both the uneducated and the so called educated, Not through "Pretence", but coming to know the garment you wear, (human experience) then and only then, a new garment shall be brought to that person, and that garment is, the knowledge of "The True Mind" and the Soul.

In the years that follow, which after these days come, you shall come to know the Soul.

The Soul is nothing at all like the Imaginations of the human Species.

How do I know this???

I have seen this scenario many times before, and I too have experienced this path many years ago, so I am in a position to understand the path ET_MAN has been taken along.

I do NOT agree with what has been said by many.... or even ET_MAN, but I do Understand the Process.

So ET_MAN if you read this, know that there is One who understands.

GOD Speed.... You journey is about to begin, and if you travel that long, long road to "The City of 9 Gates".... Lithargoel (the interpretation of which is,"The LIGHT, Gazelle-like Stone.") shall surely give you "Pearls" for free as is written.

But be warned.... The Journey is a long and exceedingly hard journey, but having set out on this journey you must complete it....

Have the courage to read "The ACTS of PETER & The TWELVE APOSTLES" easily found on the net.

I hope our paths will cross again ET_MAN, as the opening of your journey starts on that day you know.

I haven't read all of this thread, I've just been keeping up with it for the last 15 or so pages and quite frankly I'm shocked. Unity we've been friends for years, we haven't been in touch much for this past year and you've changed so much. A year or so ago you were a completely different person to who you are now. Like I said in my emails there seems to be so much negativity coming out of you right now over ET_MAN, why? Why do you feel you need to defend him all the time? I really don't understand it at all what has he said / done to convince you this is all true? I mean being nice to people and trying to end world hunger etc etc is just common sense (or should be anyway) and not some divine message. I'm afraid I have to agree that it's almost cult like behaviour, a year ago we used to chat about issues as well as our daily lives wheras now ALL you talk about is ET_MAN (and people / topics related to him) even when I ask you simple questions about general day to day stuff it's like your brainwashed and completely focused on these issues. Granted there's alot of food for thought but why is it consuming you so much? I hope you don't take this as a personal attack, I'm just a concerned friend who really doesn't understand why you've become so obsessed. For example the thing with the camera, really!? I'm not a pro photographer but even I know those are just reflections, where are you getting these ideas from and what proof is there that any of it is true?

I spent most of last night reading this excellent thread by sir-slide
www.abovetopsecret.com... it is immense, i mean seriously well written. I think the mayans may well have been on to something, and its very well explained in the thread, it seems that the final age in the mayan calender ends on 28 Oct 2011. I believe it. The world,s going to go crazy between now and the end of next year, but its gonna be good in the end, im certain of it.
If something humungous does happen on Oct 11 as suggested by et-man then i'll be one of the first to apologise for my error of judgement, I also hate the argueing and bad feeling amongst people who claim to have such similar beliefs and interests.
My critisism of Chris (et-man) only really came about, when i heard about the bizarre lengths that certain devotees of Harold Camping had gone to in facing or avoiding the "end of the world". Especially the woman who took her life and also that of her children. So quite frankly, it scared me, it scared holy hell out of me, that normal apparantly sane people could do this whilst under the influence of a cult like figure. I am really worried that there might be people on this site that may have given up everything.
Personally I believe, that one needs to be aware of what may be to come whether good or bad, life your life normally, and trust the creator (if you believe in him), because he has cunning plan......
just to add, if you

Venus will be birthed out and then Mercury, but this will take until October 6th-8th

But imagine the babies born on Rosh Hashanah, they will be circumcised near Yom Kippur, how amazing !

Rosh Hasanah Sept 28, 2011

The Yamim Nora'im are preceded by the month of Elul, during which Jews are supposed to begin a self-examination and repentance, a process that culminates in the ten days of the Yamim Nora'im known as beginning with Rosh Hashanah and ending with the holiday of Yom Kippur.

The shofar is traditionally blown each morning for the entire month of Elul, the month preceding Rosh Hashanah. The sound of the shofar is intended to awaken the listeners from their "slumbers" and alert them to the coming judgment.

PASTOR GERMAN SABINO BLOWING PROFETIC SHOFAR

Really interesting information from another forum and basically the leaders are qabalist.

Think sybmolism because, if the skies were filled with demi gods the game would be up, everyone would awake.

Its symbolic, and really means negative events might escalate. Having the mark on your forhead is their twisted way, probably of orchestrating events to harm , and their idea of karma, only the guilty will be hurt.

The rituals of the Judaic, and the Catholic, seem linked to me, I sense both are Qabbalists tied into each other. Also, the bible, the scriptures, they have so much symbolism, codes to the Vedic Astrology, ancient Eyptian Astrology and Sacred Geometry, which seems to be what all their real spirituality is based on.

The Black box in the Immortals, is in mecca and also has ties to Judaic, is linked to Saturn from the research I've done. This kind of implies middle east issues. The other links I made still comes to mind about the Red Dragon and Iran/China, and this push even from Government, completely illegal by the US constitution, for polygamy and Islam clothing in Georgian schools.

Gathering Around the Unhewn Stone

www.crystalinks.com...

Solomon's Temple.

Supposedly this is October 23 of this, an important gathering.

Is it not one of the End Time Goals to rebuild Solomon's Temple, and perhaps the control over Gold itself, they may be stock piling for this event.

Oct. 8th, the second twin Mercury is birthed. And this other information then relates The As Above So Below, to suggest that the Royal Family will make an announcement on Prince William and Kate to be expecting twins.

We need to see this, and understand, that no stone is left unturned. Its how they run things, how they do things, and the war over our minds, our spirituality, our religions, and even the interpretation we're allowed to make is all a part of the control over this planet.

We need to free our minds and really think/contemplate what Kindness would mean, verbally, in action, politically, economically, how to transform our programming and turn it around. To overcome ourselves, to strive to grow our love and concsicousness.

And use discernment.

Harold Camping agree's with you. At least your post replies & comments aren't as harsh as his video comments about his prediction and how he came up with it.

I've never known ET_MAN to express anything in a "gutless" way.

In your eyes he can do no wrong.

You say nothing but good things about him so it makes your opinion seem very biased and therefore not credible, its almost like you are trying to "sell" him to us. Nobody is perfect, we're only human, don't keep making out like he's some kind of saint.

But then we may have very different ideas of what courage and honor is.

Yes and as I said before, If he comes back after and admits he was wrong then I will have respect for him as that would take courage in my eyes, and I will thank him for doing the honorable thing, IMO the cowardly thing to do is to flee.

I use quote boxes rather than paraphrase, anybody can check this out. I wouldn't even need to twist his words to make a point. You seem blind to the fact that he has twisted words.

You, ACB, and Universal Light were a team effort on that thread.

Go back a couple a pages and ACB says he has never spoken to me before. We actually have spoken on a couple of ATS threads, but it just goes to show how little we ever knew each other, we certainly were not a team out to get et_man, we just didn't agree with him, that's all.

The Law Of One crowd, and we can't speak for everyone, for I'm sure there are some very rational, loving people into this to some extent, who like those in religions, use Discernment and weed out what doesnt resonate with them (ie. right and wrong are illusions and the negatives are only doing this for our own good). Valeri made a wonderful post here relating to that in depth, as he used to also follow this line of thought, except he also made exceptions and then questioned why he couldn't buy the whole package. He's a very deep thinker and weights things carefully.

But certain ones that respond to ET_MAN's message do so with such outrage at the very notion of challenging this belief, and viciously. And I actually told ET_MAN its like groupies, they talk of cults, but they're the ones in the "cult", then try to twist those speaking up from experiences and love and light and truth, into "cults". In fact, whatever words they use is a sure sign of what they're into.

I'm sorry, who exactly are you accusing of being in a cult? What is the "law of one crowd"? Why is this cult set up to challenge et_man ? You mention Ra and the law of one a lot, why is this? What do they have to do with this thread? Who are they? Actually don't even bother answering that its off topic, I just don't know why you keep bringing it up every time you post at me.

The Black box in the Immortals, is in mecca and also has ties to Judaic, is linked to Saturn from the research I've done. This kind of implies middle east issues.

I dont know on what basis you have come to the conclusion that the black box is Saturn or that Judaism is worship of Saturn... The black box is the house of Allah, which appears in both Islamic scriptures as well as in the old testament... Allah is not Saturn Or Venus... In order to understand who or what the God of Abraham is, one needs to read the Quran/Torah...
Allah is an Arabic word which means "The Diety". The diety in english means "The one who is supposed to be worshipped" Or "The one who is fit to be worshipped". It is described in the Quran as the one who creates and then replenishes his creation by providing them with sustenance and when the time to reap the harvest of his creation has come, destroyes his creation (or) acts as the destroyer (or) sends forth the destroyer... The main / important aspect of him is "The Creator"... Not Saturn (or) Venus...

And when they would reach the plain ground they would be sunk. We said: Allah's Messenger, all sorts of people throng the path.

I said: I heard Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: There would (first) be turmoil for a person in regard to his family, his property, his own self, his children, his neighbours (and the sins comnaitted in their connection) would be expiated by fasting, prayer, charity, enjoining good and prohibiting evil. Thereupon 'Umar said: I do not mean (that turmoil on a small scale) but that one which would eme-ge like the mounting waves of the ocean. I said: Commander of the Faithful, you have nothing to do with it, for the door is closed between you and that. He said: Would that door be broken or opened? I said: No, it would be broken. Thereupon he said: Then it would not be closed despite best efforts. We said to Hudhaifa: Did Umar know the door? Thereupon he said: Yes, he knew it (for certain) just as one knows that night precede the next day. And I narrated to him something in which there was nothing fabricated. Shaqiq (one of the narrators) said: We dared not ask Hudhaifa about that door. So we requested Masrdq to ask him. So he asked him and he said: (By that door, he meant) 'Umar.

He said: By Allah, they would not do it, and I have heard a hadith of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) which I am narrating to you in this connection. I said: You are a bad seat fellow. I have been opposing you since morning and you are listening to me in spite of the fact that you have heard a hadith from Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) (contrary to ray statement). I myself felt that there was no use of this annoyance. (He could tell me earlier that it was a hadith of the Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him], and I would not have opposed him at all.)

When they will arrange themselves in ranks, the Romans would say: Do not stand between us and those (Muslims) who took prisoners from amongst us. Let us fight with them; and the Muslims would say: Nay, by Allah, we would never get aside from you and from our brethren that you may fight them. They will then fight and a third (part) of the army would run away, whom Allah will never forgive. A third (part of the army). which would be constituted of excellent martyrs in Allah's eye, would be killed ani the third who would never be put to trial would win and they would be conquerors of Constantinople. And as they would be busy in distributing the spoils of war (amongst themselves) after hanging their swords by the olive trees, the Satan would cry: The Dajjal has taken your place among your family. They would then come out, but it would be of no avail. And when they would come to Syria, he would come out while they would be still preparing themselves for battle drawing up the ranks. Certainly, the time of prayer shall come and then Jesus (peace be upon him) son of Mary would descend and would lead them in prayer. When the enemy of Allah would see him, it would (disappear) just as the salt dissolves itself in water and if he (Jesus) were not to confront them at all, even then it would dissolve completely, but Allah would kill them by his hand and he would show them their blood on his lance (the lance of Jesus Christ).

They have the patience to undergo a trial and immediately restore themselves to sanity after trouble and attack again after flight.

Mustaurid said to him: I stated only that which I heard from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him).

I said: You mean Rome? And he said: Yes, and there would be a terrible fight and the Muslims would prepare a detachment (for fighting unto death) which would not return but victorious. They will fight until night will intervene them; both the sides will return without being victorious and both will be wiped out. The Muslims will again prepare a detachment for fighting unto death so that they may not return but victorious. When it would be the fourth day, a new detachment out of the remnant of the Muslims would be prepared and Allah will decree that the enemy should be routed. And they would fight such a fight the like of which would not be seen, so much so that even if a bird were to pass their flanks, it would fall down dead before reaching the end of them. (There would be such a largescale massacre) that when counting would be done, (only) one out of a hundred men related to one another would be found alive. So what can be the joy at the spoils of such war and what inheritance would be divided! They would be in this very state that they would hear of a calamity more horrible than this. And a cry would reach them: The Dajjil has taken your place among your off- spring. They will, therefore, throw away what would be in their hands and go forward sending ten horsemen, as a scouting party. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: I know their names and the names of their forefathers and the colour of their horses.

I said to myself: Better go to them and stand between him and them that they may not attack him. Then I thought that perhaps there had been going on secret negotiation amongst them. I however, went to them and btood between them and him and I remember four of the words (on that occasion) which I repeat (on the fingers of my hand) that he (Allah's Messenger) said: You will attack Arabia and Allah will enable you to conquer it, then you would attack Persia and He would make you to Conquer it. Then you would attack Rome and AllgLh will enable you to conquer it, then you would attack the Dajjal and Allah will enable you to conquer him.

Abu Sa'id he who is ingnoran of the saying of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) (he is to be pardoned), but O people of Ansar, is this hadith of Allah's Messengern (may peace be upon him) concealed from you whereas you have the best konowledge of t this hadith of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) amongst people?

Then Ibn Sayyad talked to us. I then departed and met him again for the second time and his eye had been swollen. I said: What has happened to your eye? He said: I do not know. I said: This is in your head and you do not know about it? He said: If Allah so wills He can create it (eye) in your staff. He then produced a sound like the braying of a donkey. Some of my companions thought that I had struck him with the staff as he was with me that the staff broke into pieces, but, by Allah, I was not conscious of it. He then came to the Mother of the Faithful (Hafsa) and narrated it to her and she said: What concern you have with him?

When we went to him (to the Holy Prophet) in the evening and he read (the signs of fear) in our faces, he said: What is the matter with you? We said: Allah's Messenger, you made a mention of the Dajjal in the morning (sometimes describing him) to be insignificant and sometimes very important, until we began to think as if he were present in some (near) part of the cluster of the datpalm trees. Thereupon he said: I harbour fear in regard to you in so many other things besides the Dajjal. If he comes forth while I am among on, I shall contend with him on your behalf, but if he comes forth while I am not amongst you, a man must contend on his own behalf and Allah would take care of every Muslim on my behalf (and safeguard him against his evil). He (Dajjal) would be a young man with twisted, contracted hair, and a blind eye. I compare him to 'Abd-ul-'Uzza b. Q
