Question

I have heard that the name of the last person coming out of Jahannam and the last to enter Jannah will be Juhaynah and the name of his tribe will also be Juhaynah.

Is this authentic?

 

Answer

This narration is recorded in the book ‘Gharaibu Malik’. However, the Muhaddithun have declared the narration unreliable. It is therefore not suitable to quote.

Refer: Lisanul Mizan, vol. 2 pg. 415/416, Fathul Bari, under Hadith: 6574, vol. 11 pg. 459 Al Maqasidul Hasanah, Hadith: 719 and Tanzihush Shari’ah, vol. 2 pg. 391

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
