Musnad Abi Ya'la 3289 — The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to like dreams
حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، قَالَ : قَالَ أَنَسٌ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تُعْجِبُهُ الرُّؤْيَا ، فَرُبَّمَا رَأَى الرَّجُلُ الرُّؤْيَا فَسَأَلَ عَنْهُ إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ يَعْرِفُهُ ، فَإِذَا أُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهِ مَعْرُوفًا ، كَانَ أَعْجَبَ لِرُؤْيَاهُ عَلَيْهِ ، فَأَتَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ فَقَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ رَأَيْتُ كَأَنِّي أُتِيتُ فَأُخْرِجْتُ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ ، فَأُدْخِلْتُ الْجَنَّةَ ، فَسَمِعْتُ وَجْبَةً ارْتَجَّتْ لَهَا الْجَنَّةُ ، فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا فُلَانُ ابْنُ فُلَانٍ ، وَفُلَانُ ابْنُ فُلَانٍ ، فَسَمَّتِ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا - كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ بَعَثَ سَرِيَّةً بِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَ - فَجِيءَ بِهِمْ عَلَيْهِمْ ثِيَابٌ طُلْسٌ ، تَشْخَبُ أَوْدَاجُهُمْ ، فَقِيلَ : اذْهَبُوا بِهِمْ إِلَى نَهَرِ الْبَيْذَجِ . أَوِ : الْبَيْرَحِ . قَالَ : فَغُمِسُوا فِيهِ ، فَخَرَجُوا وُجُوهُهُمْ كَالْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ ، فَأُتُوا بِصَحْفَةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فِيهَا بُسْرَةٌ ، فَأَكَلُوا مِنْ بُسْرِهِ مَا شَاءُوا ، فَمَا يُقَلِّبُونَهَا مِنْ وَجْهٍ إِلَّا أَكَلُوا مِنَ الْفَاكِهَةِ مَا أَرَادُوا ، وَأَكَلْتُ مَعَهُمْ ، فَجَاءَ الْبَشِيرُ مِنْ تِلْكَ السَّرِيَّةِ ، فَقَالَ : كَانَ مِنْ أَمْرِنَا كَذَا وَكَذَا ، فَأُصِيبَ فُلَانٌ وَفُلَانٌ ، حَتَّى عَدَّ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا ، فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَرْأَةَ ، فَقَالَ : قُصِّي رُؤْيَاكِ ، فَقَصَّتْهَا وَجَعَلَتْ تَقُولُ : جِيءَ بِفُلَانٍ ، وَجِيءَ بِفُلَانٍ ، كَمَا قَالَ .
Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to like dreams. Sometimes a man would see a dream, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) would ask about him if he did not know him; and if he was praised as a good man, he (peace and blessings be upon him) liked his dream all the more. A woman came to him and said: "O Messenger of Allah! I saw (in a dream) as if I was taken and brought out of Madinah, and admitted into Paradise. Then I heard a crash at which Paradise shook. I looked, and there were so-and-so son of so-and-so, and so-and-so son of so-and-so" — she named twelve men; the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had sent out an expedition with that number — "they were brought wearing dark grey garments, with blood gushing from their jugular veins. It was said: Take them to the river of al-Baydhaj" — or: al-Bayrah — "so they were dipped in it, and they came out with faces like the moon on the night of the full moon. Then a golden bowl containing unripe dates was brought to them, and they ate of its dates as much as they wished; whichever side they turned it to, they ate of the fruit whatever they wanted, and I ate with them." Then the bearer of news came from that expedition and said: "Such-and-such happened to us, and so-and-so and so-and-so were slain," until he had counted twelve men. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called the woman and said: "Relate your dream." She related it and began to say: "So-and-so was brought, and so-and-so was brought," just as he had said.
