He is one-eyed
Dajjal is one-eyed

(13)
Once the Messenger of Allah mentioned Dajjal and said, “l warn you against him and there was no prophet but warned his nation against him

No doubt, Noah warned his nation against him but I tell you about him something of which no prophet told his nation before me

You should know that he is blind, and Allah is not blind

"(14)
“Although he is blind, he says to people “I am your Lord”

However, your Lord is not blind (He is free from resembling creatures and free from all defects)

”(15)
“Allah is not blind

Be careful

The right eye of Dajjal is blind

His eye is like a grain that has popped

”(16) "His eye is indistinct

"(17)
In the narrations, Dajjal’s eye is resembled to a green glass,(18) and a bright star

(19)
Based on those narrations, Qurtubi says, both eyes of Dajjal have defects; one eye has been deprived of light and the other is faulty at birth

(20)
It has been stated that that blindness means the blindness of his eye of the heart

(21)
Saying; "Man becomes blind due to fancy and wrath" , Mawlana points out to another aspect of blindness

We see that in folklore, one-eyedness is used for the evil and bully people

The one-eyedness used for Dajjal means “the evilest of all”

In Arabic folklore, the phrase glass-eyed is used for a lascivious man

(22)
It is very significant that the word “awar”, which means blind in Arabic, is used for a “person who has no goodness by any means” (23)

As a matter of fact, Muhammad Abduh sees Dajjal as the symbol of dishonesty and evil

Muhammad al-Bahi regards the advent of Dajjal as the spread of mischief and anarchy in the community and the sovereignty of materialism saying, "Dajjal is the symbol of materialism that will peak

" According to Muhammad Asad, that characteristic exactly fits the Western civilization that sees the matter only and that is closed to spirituality and that has some extraordinary features

That interpretation of Asad is in harmony with the expression of Badiuzzaman who says for the West that deviated from the real Christianity, “The blind genius that has a single eye like Dajjal” (24)(25)

While Badiuzzaman says that one of the Great Dajjal’s eyes will be blind, and one eye of the other Dajjal will be blind in comparison with his other eye that he has a spellbinding hypnotic power in his eye and that the Islamic Dajjal has a spellbinding hypnotic power in one of his eyes (26), he interprets them as follows: "It even says in narrations: “ Dajjal will be blind in one eye

”By drawing attention to this and pointing out that one of the Great Dajjal’s eyes will be blind, and one eye of the other Dajjal will be blind in comparison with his other eye, the hadith is indicating that since they will be absolute unbelievers, they will have only one eye and their sight will be restricted to this world, and they will have no eyes that see the hereafter and consequences of actions

"
After that explanations Badiuzzaman says, “I too saw the Islamic Dajjal in a spirit world

I observed with my own eyes that he possessed a spellbinding hypnotic power in one of his eyes, and I understood him to be a total denier of God

He will attack religion and the sacred with a boldness and insolence arising from his absolute denial

However, since the ordinary people will not know the truth of the matter, they will suppose it to be an extraordinary power and courage "(27)

The following expressions are recorded in Kutub Sitta Mukhtasar Translation and Explanation regarding the issue:
"The most apparent and important property of the mischief of the end of time caused by Dajjal is that it is against religion

Some humanist views that will emerge during the end of time will try to replace religion

Although it does not call itself a religion formally, it will assume the identity of a religion from the point of view of creed with the system Dajjal will put forward and try to establish

That new religion will base its creed on the denial of divinity in order to eliminate all kinds of divine sovereignty

It tries to bring a humane idol (desire) to replace all kinds of religious values

It is a secular religion whose main deity is matter and man

It is understood from the hadiths that the secular people will try to eliminate Islam and believers will suffer insults

It is doubtless that they took place exactly in the past and will take place today

"(28)
What is the reason (wisdom) why it is especially stated that one eye of Dajjal is blind? It may be to enable Muslims to know him easily

They should know him so that they will not be deceived by his extraordinary acts, tricks and fascination

Those who see that he is materially blind and that he denies the hereafter and make the world his aim of life will not have difficulty in recognizing him; they will immediately notice his denial and will only laugh at him when they see that he deifies himself despite his defects
