Translation

Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbas (radiyallahu ‘anhuma) reported that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “On the night of Mi’raj, Allah sent me to Yajuj and Majuj. I invited them to the Din of Allah and to worship Him but they refused to accept. They will be in the fire with all those who disobey from the children of Adam and Iblis.”

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
