Hadith 3902

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ , أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ , عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ , عَنْ جَابِرٍ , عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , أَنَّهُ قَالَ : " مَنْ رَآنِي فِي الْمَنَامِ , فَقَدْ رَآنِي , إِنَّهُ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِلشَّيْطَانِ أَنْ يَتَمَثَّلَ فِي صُورَتِي " .
´It was narrated from Jabir that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:` “Whoever sees me in a dream has (really) seen me, for Satan cannot appear in my form.”

Benefit:
It is established from this hadith that satanic dreams should not be related to others; only good dreams may be narrated. Interpretation should be sought only from someone who fears Allah and is a person of knowledge, not from just anyone.
