Protection from the False Messiah (Dajjal)

The Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever memorizes the first ten verses of sura al-Kahf will be protected from the trial of the False Messiah (ad-Dajjal)" [Muslim 1883]. One should recite the first ten verses of sura 18 (al-Kahf):

""Praise be to Allah, who has sent down to His servant the Book and has made it without any crookedness…" through to verse 10: "…when the youths retreated to the cave and said, ‹Our Lord, grant us from Yourself mercy and prepare for us in our affair right guidance.›""

One should also seek Allah's refuge from the Dajjal's trial after the final tashahhud of every prayer — see dua №55 (chapter 26-1).

[Qur'an 18:1–10; Muslim 1883]
