Was the Antichrist (Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal) imprisoned on an island, and did the Companions find him and ask the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, about him? And will he appear after Lake Tiberias dries up?
The narration about Lake Tiberias and its drying up is authentic, and it is mentioned in Sahih Muslim in the Book of Tribulations and Portents of the Hour. The drying up of the lake will occur after the death of the Dajjal (Antichrist), when the first groups of Gog and Magog pass by it and drink its water. Imam Muslim and others mentioned that Christ, the son of Mary (peace be upon him), will kill the Dajjal, and then Allah will reveal to him the emergence of Gog and Magog, who will drink the water of Lake Tiberias.
