Sahih al-Bukhari
Prophets
Chapter: The Statement of Allah Aza Wajal: "And indeed We sent Nuh to his people..."
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Shall I not tell you about the Dajjal a story of which no prophet told his nation? The Dajjall is one-eyed and will bring with him what will resemble Hell and Paradise, and what he will call Paradise will be actually Hell; so I warn you (against him) as Noah warned his nation against him."
Sahih al-Bukhari 3338
