ntroduction and types of Dajjaal
Dajjaal means a grave liar. Since Dajjaal will also tell a lie by mixing the truth with falsehood, he is also called Dajjaal. He will first present himself as a believer and will call people towards good but later on, he will claim to be a prophet and finally to be god. It is said that he will be of Jewish origin.(Fath-ul-Bari, vol. 14, pp. 78; Al-Tazkirah Li-Qurtubi, pp. 607’ Mirat-ul-Manajih, vol. 7, pp. 276)

Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan Na’eemi رَحْمَةُ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْه has said: There are two types of Dajjaal; minor and major. As for minor Dajjals, there were and will be many of them. Every false prophet, false Maulvi, Sufi, who misguides people is Dajjaal. Major Dajjaal is only one who will claim to be god. (Mirat-ul-Manajih, vol. 7, pp. 276)
