                    tichrist's evil. As the hadith reveal, the prayer that our

                    beloved Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him
                    peace) taught to believers is as follows:
                         Our Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace)
                         stated that: "When one of you finishes his prayer, let him
                         seek Allah's protection from four things by saying: Oh
                         Allah, I seek your protection from the suffering of Hell,
                         the agony of the tomb, the wickedness of life and death,
                         and the wickedness of the antichrist." 22

                         The fact that the Prophet (may Allah bless him and
                    grant him peace) taught this prayer to his followers in per-
                    son and recommended that they say it during the daily
                    prayers shows how important the question of the antichrist
                    is for believers. We know that after their daily prayers, Is-
                    lamic scholars also added the words Allahumma ajirni min
                    fitna al-Masih al-Dajjal wa al-Sufyan (O Allah, protect me
                    from the wickedness of the antichrist and the sufyan).
                    Aware of the immense scale of the antichrist's evil, Muslims

                    seek Allah's protection with this prayer in their own daily
                    prayers. This shows that Muslims are spiritually prepared
                    for the antichrist. However, the most important preparation
                    to be taken against the antichrist is exactly the one that must
                    be taken to prepare for the Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) coming.
                         In one respect, the second coming will manifest the
                    fact that this prayer has been heard. This is because the ha-

                    dith reveal that the antichrist's wickedness can only be done
                    away with by the Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) return to Earth, and
