Question

If DAJJAAL were to be here would shooting him do any harm to him, what I mean is could anyone kill him with a knife or a gun or another similar weapon?

Answer

In theory, it is possible to kill Dajjaal as he would be a human being.

However, Eesa (Alayhis salaam) will be given the exclusive right to kill him. So, even if others try to kill Dajjaal, they will not succeed.
