اُردوEn
فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " بَيْنَمَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ رَأَيْتُ فِي يَدَيَّ سِوَارَيْنِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فَأَهَمَّنِي شَأْنُهُمَا ، فَأُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ فِي الْمَنَامِ أَنِ انْفُخْهُمَا ، فَنَفَخْتُهُمَا فَطَارَا ، فَأَوَّلْتُهُمَا كَذَّابَيْنِ يَخْرُجَانِ بَعْدِي فَكَانَ أَحَدُهُمَا الْعَنْسِيَّ ، وَالْآخَرُ مُسَيْلِمَةَ الْكَذَّابَ صَاحِبَ الْيَمَامَةِ " .
Abu Huraira told me that Allah's Apostle; said, "While I was sleeping, I saw (in a dream) two gold bracelets round my arm, and that worried me too much. Then I was instructed divinely in my dream, to blow them off and so I blew them off, and they flew away. I interpreted the two bracelets as symbols of two liars who would appear after me. And so one of them was Al-Ansi and the other was Musailama Al-Kadhdhab from Al-Yamama."

Hadith Commentary:
Allah destroyed both of them.
In this way, what the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) had said was proven true word for word.
This too is a proof of his Prophethood.
Here, some translators of Sahih al-Bukhari have rendered it as: "Musaylimah the Liar appeared during the time of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)." This translation is not correct; rather, its translation is "he came to Madinah," as is clearly mentioned further ahead.
