and blessing be upon him) and his killing <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Dajjal</strong> is both<br />
true and correct with Ahlul-Sunnah because <strong>of</strong> the authentic narrations<br />
in this respect. Further, there is nothing by way <strong>of</strong> sound<br />
reasoning or neither in the legislation (Shar'iah) that makes it untenable<br />

established in the authentic narrations. For this reason he is in<br />
the second heaven in-spite <strong>of</strong> his excellence over <strong>Yusuf</strong>, Idris<br />
and Harun. He will descend to the earth before the Day <strong>of</strong> Resurrection,<br />
as opposed to the other Prophets. As for Adam being<br />
in the first Heaven then that is because the souls <strong>of</strong> his progeny<br />
are (constantly) shown to him.' 68<br />
