The story of Gog and Maagog
_Episode 3_
This Hadith denotes the numerousness of their numbers and that
they are a hundred-fold the number of all mankind. Moreover,
they are from among the offspring of Nuh (Noah (Peace be upon
him)) in particular for Allah the Almighty informs us in His
Glorious Qur'an that Nuh (Peace be upon him) invoked Him against
the people of the earth saying: {And Nuh (Noah) said: "My Lord!
Leave not one of the disbelievers on the earth!} (Nuh, 26) And,
Allah the Almighty Himself says: {Then We saved him and those
with him in the ship}. (Al-'Ankabut, 15) And, {And, his progeny,
them We made the survivors}. (As-Saffat, 77) This is in addition
to the Hadith transmitted in Imam Ahmed's Musnad and the Sunan
of Abu Dawud that mentioned: that there were three sons born to
Nuh (Peace be upon him): Shell, Ham and Japheth. Shem was the
father of the Arabs; Ham was the father of the Sudan; and
Japheth was the father of the Turk.7 Moreover, Gog and Magog are
just a part of the Turk from among the Mangols who were stronger
and spread mischief in the land. Some people claimed that Gog
and Magog were created out of the semen of Adam (Peace be upon
him) that mixed with the earth and thus they were not from Eve.
But, this claim -which was held by Sheik Abu Zakariya An-Nawawi
in his explanation of Sahih Muslim and by other scholars who
declared it to be weak and strange -is too weak. As, there is
not any proof on this and moreover, it contradicts the obvious
text of the Glorious Qur'an -mentioned earlier -that all mankind
of today are from the offspring of Nuh (Peace be upon him). In
addition, some people claimed that they (Gog and Magog) are of
different shapes and figures: some are as tall as palm-trees,
some are too short, and some take one of their ears as a bed and
the other as a cover or blanket. However, all these claims are
groundless and cannot stand the slightest refutation. But, the
correct view is that: they are from among the children of Adam
(Peace be upon him) and that they bear the same qualities and
shapes. Allah's Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: "Allah created
Adam, making him 60 cubits tall. When He created him, He said to
him, "Go and greet that group of angels, and listen to their
reply, for it will be your greeting (salutation) and the
greeting (salutations of your offspring. " So, Adam said (to the
angels), As- Salamu 'Alaikum (i.e. Peace be upon you). The
angels said, "As-Salamu' Alaika wa Rahmatu-l-lahi" (i. e. Peace
and Allah's Mercy be upon you). Thus the angels added to Adam's
salutation the expression, 'Wa Rahmatu-l-lah.' Any person who
will enter Paradise will resemble Adam (in appearance and
figure). People have been decreasing in stature since Adam's
creation." This Hadith blocks the way before those who falsely
claim things that are groundless.
