Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 11749

وَعَنْ جَعْدَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - رَأَى لِرَجُلٍ رُؤْيَا قَالَ : فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ فَجَاءَ ، قَالَ : فَجَعَلَ يَقُصُّهَا عَلَيْهِ ، قَالَ : وَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ عَظِيمَ الْبَطْنِ ، قَالَ : فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ بِأُصْبُعِهِ فِي بَطْنِهِ : " لَوْ كَانَ هَذَا فِي غَيْرِ هَذَا لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَكَ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Ja'dah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw a man in a dream. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent for him, and he came to him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) began relating the dream to him. The narrator says: He was a man with a large belly, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), pointing his finger at his belly, said: If this (that is, the fat of the belly, or the obesity) were somewhere other than here, it would have been better for you.
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
