WHO ACTUALLY ARE YA'JUJ AND MA'JUJ?

[Mohammad Shoumik Saad]

As salamu 'alaikum my most beloved and respected fellow muslims.
I'm back after a really long hiatus, as I was busy with my A Level studies and various exams. My 1st, and for along time the only, post was "ISLAM ALLOWS AMULETS CONTAINING QUR'ANIC VERSES, SURAHS AND/OR SPECIFIC DUAS?"
Well now I'm researching on ya'jooj and ma'jooj, and I'd extremely appreciate it if you guys could provide me with all original arabic ahadeeth (both reliable & unreliable, strong & weak) mentioning them, word-for-word translations of these ahadeeth, and also commentaries on them and their explanations by the companions of Muhammad (peace be upon him) and also by other well-known, knowledgeable and trusted scholars, both medieval and contemporary.
In particular I'd like to know whether they're humans, and their physical appearance (I've read on some sites that according to narration(s) they're descendants of Japheth, son of Nuh (peace be upon him). And I most eagerly welcome your personal opinions, preferably backed by scientific and religious sources, in this regard.
Thanks a lot for all your hard work, or at least for reading this!

Wa Alaikum As'salam dear brother,

Welcome back.  May you insha'Allah find all of your satisfying answers here.  Ameen.

I have one request.  Please do not double post the same topic.  You can certainly create multiple posts referencing the title in multiple sections, and linking the original post as I am doing for you with the following link:

http://www.answering-christianity.com/blog/index.php/topic,2321.msg10559.html#msg10559

This link is your exact post in the other thread.  Otherwise, partial answers will exist in both threads, and the reader will not get the thorough analysis and study that he or she deserves.

Take care,
Osama Abdallah

And bro Osama could u plz, plz, plz reply more frequently to my post(s). When u didn't reply 2 my 1st post in 2015, it kinda... umm... really broke my heart... to tell u da truth, I'm such a big fan of yours!!!
When I stumbled upon your awesome site back in early 2015, (1st article I read was "Jesus' (peace be upon him) true name is 'Eesa) I was like "whoa this Osama guy's the next level Zakir Naik!!!" And from dat day u've earned my total love and respect dear bro; I earnestly hope Allah Almighty continues to strengthen your belief in da Divine Truth of Islam and ur skills (especially research quality 'n quantity) in waging incessant intellectual JIHAD against the infidels.
To quote u "the infidels have nothing on Islam"- too damn right u r bro!!!

Anyways if u don't mind could u plz give links 4 da resources, which I'm in dire need of, I mentioned in my original post?

All da best wishes bro!!!
