Hadith 7822
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ لَا تَكَادُ رُؤْيَا الْمُؤْمِنِ تَكْذِبُ وَأَصْدَقُكُمْ رُؤْيَا أَصْدَقُكُمْ حَدِيثًا وَالرُّؤْيَا ثَلَاثَةٌ الرُّؤْيَا الْحَسَنَةُ بُشْرَى مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَالرُّؤْيَا يُحَدِّثُ بِهَا الرَّجُلُ نَفْسَهُ وَالرُّؤْيَا تَحْزِينٌ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ فَإِذَا رَأَى أَحَدُكُمْ رُؤْيَا يَكْرَهُهَا فَلَا يُحَدِّثْ بِهَا أَحَدًا وَلْيَقُمْ فَلْيُصَلِّ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يُعْجِبُنِي الْقَيْدُ وَأَكْرَهُ الْغُلَّ الْقَيْدُ ثَبَاتٌ فِي الدِّينِ وَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ رُؤْيَا الْمُؤْمِنِ جُزْءٌ مِنْ سِتَّةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنَ النُّبُوَّةِ
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: In the last era, a believer’s dream will not be false, and the truest dream among you is the one whose speech is the most truthful. There are three types of dreams: a good dream, which is glad tidings from Allah Almighty; a dream that consists of a person’s own thoughts; and a distressing dream, which is from Satan. When any one of you sees a dream he dislikes, he should not relate it to anyone, but should stand up and offer prayer. Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I like to see chains in a dream and dislike to see a collar, because chains are a sign of firmness in religion. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A believer’s dream is one forty-sixth part of prophethood.
Hadith 7823
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِذَا رَأَى أَحَدُكُمُ الرُّؤْيَا يُحِبُّهَا فَإِنَّمَا هِيَ مِنَ اللَّهِ فَلْيَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ عَلَيْهَا وَلْيُحَدِّثْ بِهَا فَإِذَا رَأَى غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ مِمَّا يَكْرَهُ فَإِنَّمَا هِيَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ فَلْيَسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَلَا يَذْكُرْهَا لِأَحَدٍ فَإِنَّهَا لَا تَضُرُّهُ
Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When any of you sees a dream, if it is pleasing, then it is from Allah Almighty; he should praise Him for it and he may relate it to others. But if he sees any other dream which he dislikes, then it is from Satan; he should seek refuge with Allah Almighty from its evil and should not mention it to anyone, it will not harm him.
Hadith 7824
عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِذَا رَأَى أَحَدُكُمُ الرُّؤْيَا يَكْرَهُهَا فَلْيَبْصُقْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ ثَلَاثًا وَلْيَسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ ثَلَاثًا وَلْيَتَحَوَّلْ عَنْ جَنْبِهِ الَّذِي كَانَ عَلَيْهِ
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When any of you sees a dream which he dislikes, he should spit three times to his left and seek Allah’s protection from Satan three times (i.e., recite: A‘udhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim), and he should change the side on which he was lying.
Hadith 7825
عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَرَى الرُّؤْيَا أُعْرَى مِنْهَا غَيْرَ أَنِّي لَا أُزَمَّلُ (وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ إِنْ كُنْتُ لَأَرَى الرُّؤْيَا تُمَرِّضُنِي) حَتَّى لَقِيتُ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ الرُّؤْيَا مِنَ اللَّهِ وَالْحُلْمُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ فَمَنْ رَأَى رُؤْيَا يَكْرَهُهَا فَلَا يُخْبِرْ بِهَا وَلْيَتْفُلْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ ثَلَاثًا وَلْيَسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شَرِّهَا فَإِنَّهَا لَا تَضُرُّهُ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يَرَى شَيْئًا يَكْرَهُهُ (وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ وَإِذَا رَأَى أَحَدُكُمْ مَا يُحِبُّ فَلَا يُحَدِّثْ بِهَا إِلَّا مَنْ يُحِبُّ)
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I used to see such dreams that, out of fear, I would get a fever and could not even cover myself with a sheet. (In another narration: I used to see such dreams that would make me ill.) One day I met Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) and mentioned this to him. He narrated this hadith to me: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A good dream is from Allah Almighty, and bad dreams are from Satan. When any of you sees a dream that he dislikes, he should not inform anyone about it, and he should spit three times to his left and seek refuge in Allah Almighty from its evil. (It should be kept in mind that) this dream will not harm him. Sufyan, the narrator, narrated once in this way: He will not see anything disliked. In another narration: When any of you sees a pleasant dream, he should narrate it only to the one whom he loves.
