Then there would be tremors, then submergence, then morphing, then the dusty hunger, then the red death, and it is the drowning (an extract)!’’ [3] Eman if not acted upon will not benefit when Dajjal appears: وَ فِي تَفْسِيرِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الْبَاقِرِ ع نَزَلَتْ أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِي إِيمانِها خَيْراً قَالَ إِذَا طَلَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا آمَنَ النَّاسُ كُلُّهُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لا يَنْفَعُ نَفْساً إِيمانُها In Tafseer of Ali Bin Ibrahim – From Al-Baqir -asws : ‘It was Revealed: or earned goodness during its Eman.
