Sahih Muslim 171 (Book 1, Hadith 334) #7599
The Vision of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) at Ka'bah

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) saw a vision of himself making tawaf around the Ka'bah, and he saw two men with different appearances. One was fair-complexioned with straight hair, and the other was red-complexioned with thick locks of hair and one blind eye. He was told that the first man was Jesus (peace be upon him), and the second man was Dajjal.

'Abdullah reported on the authority of his father 'Umar b. Khattab that he heard from the Messenger of Allah (may peace he upon him) say: I was sleeping when I saw myself making circuit around the Ka'bah, and I saw there a man of fair complexion with straight hair between two men. Water was flowing from his head or water was falling from his head. I said: Who is he? They answered: He is the son of Mary. Then I moved forward and cast a glance and there was a bulky man of red complexion with thick locks of hair on his head, blind of one eye as it his eye was a swollen grape. I asked: Who is he? They said: He is Dajjal. He had close resemblance with Ibn Qatan amongst men.
حَدَّثَنِي حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ رَأَيْتُنِي أَطُوفُ بِالْكَعْبَةِ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ آدَمُ سَبِطُ الشَّعْرِ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ يَنْطِفُ رَأْسُهُ مَاءً - أَوْ يُهَرَاقُ رَأْسُهُ مَاءً - قُلْتُ مَنْ هَذَا قَالُوا هَذَا ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ ذَهَبْتُ أَلْتَفِتُ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ أَحْمَرُ جَسِيمٌ جَعْدُ الرَّأْسِ أَعْوَرُ الْعَيْنِ كَأَنَّ عَيْنَهُ عِنَبَةٌ طَافِيَةٌ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ مَنْ هَذَا قَالُوا الدَّجَّالُ ‏.‏ أَقْرَبُ النَّاسِ بِهِ شَبَهًا ابْنُ قَطَنٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Respect all prophets sent by Allah SWT ; seek knowledge from reliable sources such as authentic Hadith narrations etc.; recognize people based on their character rather than physical appearance ; understand visions sent by Allah SWT as signs for guidance .

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith is about a vision that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ had while he was sleeping. In this vision, he saw himself making tawaf around the Ka’bah in Makkah when he noticed two men standing there. One of them had a fair complexion with straight hair, while the other one had a red complexion with thick locks of hair on his head and one blind eye like it was swollen like a grape. When asked who they were, it is said that they were Jesus son of Mary and Dajjal respectively. This shows us how important it is to recognize people by their character rather than their physical appearance as Allah knows best what lies within our hearts even if we may not be able to see it from outside appearances alone.
