Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) relates: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever has seen me in a dream has seen me myself, for Satan cannot take on my form, nor the form of the Ka'bah."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Saghir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains Muhammad bin Abi al-Sari, whom Yahya bin Ma'in and others declared thiqah (trustworthy), though there is some weakness in him; the remaining narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
