Sahih Muslim 588b (Book 5, Hadith 164) #8478
Seeking Refuge with Allah from Four Trials

SUMMARY: This hadith encourages Muslims to seek refuge with Allah from four trials, which are the torment of Hell, the torment of grave, the trial of life and death, and the mischief of Masih at-Dajjal (Antichrist).

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: When any one of you completes the last tashahhud. he should seek refuge with Allah from four (trials). I.e. from the torment of Hell, from the torment of grave, from the trial of life and death, and from the mischief of Masih at-Dajjal (Antichrist). This hadith has been narrated by al-Auza'i with the same chain of transmitters but with these words:" When any one of you completes the tashahhud" and he made no mention of the words" the last".
وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، حَدَّثَنِي الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَسَّانُ بْنُ عَطِيَّةَ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ‏"‏ إِذَا فَرَغَ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنَ التَّشَهُّدِ الآخِرِ فَلْيَتَعَوَّذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ أَرْبَعٍ مِنْ عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ وَمِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ وَمِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ وَمِنْ شَرِّ الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّالِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ الْحَكَمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا هِقْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، ح قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ يُونُسَ - جَمِيعًا عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَقَالَ ‏"‏ إِذَا فَرَغَ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنَ التَّشَهُّدِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ ‏"‏ الآخِرَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith encourages Muslims to seek refuge with Allah from four trials. The first is the torment of Hell. This refers to punishment in the afterlife for those who have committed sins in this life. The second is the torment of grave. This refers to a period after death when a person's soul will be questioned by two angels about their faith and deeds while alive on earth. The third is trial of life and death which refers to all kinds of difficulties that one may face during their lifetime such as sickness or poverty. Lastly, it mentions seeking refuge from mischief or corruption caused by Masih at-Dajjal or Antichrist who will try to lead people astray through false teachings. Therefore, this hadith reminds us that we should always turn towards Allah for protection against any kind of difficulty we may face in our lives here on earth as well as in our afterlife hereafter.
