Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 32473 — Reports on interpreting dreams

Ata bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated from a man who served by giving fatwas in Egypt. That man said: I asked Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) about the explanation of this verse: "For them are good tidings in the life of this world" [Yunus: 64]. He began to say: "Since I asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about the explanation of this verse, no one has asked me about its explanation until now. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) also said to me at that time: 'No one before you has asked me about the explanation of this verse. It means the good dream that a Muslim sees or that is shown to him, and what he will be given the good tidings of in the Hereafter is Paradise.'"
