دجال
See also: دخال
Arabic
Etymology
Belongs to د ج ل (d-j-l) now, with a verb دَجَلَ (dajala, “dupe, cheat, swindle, deceive”), but the early religious use suggests that these meanings are a semantic loan from Classical Syriac ܕܰܓܳܠܳܐ (daggālā), whereas the Arabic root prominently means “smearing things over other things”, “coating”.
Noun
دَجَّال • (dajjāl) m (plural دَجَّالُون (dajjālūn) or دَجَاجِلَة (dajājila), feminine دَجَّالَة (dajjāla))
- someone who covers, coats things
