141 - Manners to follow regarding dreams

عن أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه  عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ: «إِذَا اقْتَرَبَ الزَّمَانُ، لَمْ تَكَدْ رُؤْيَا الْمُسْلِمِ تَكْذِبُ، وَأَصْدَقُكُمْ رُؤْيَا أَصْدَقُكُمْ حَدِيثًا، وَرُؤْيَا الْمُسْلِمِ جُزْءٌ مِنْ خَمْسٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنَ النُّبُوَّةِ، وَالرُّؤْيَا ثَلَاثَةٌ: فَرُؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةِ بُشْرَى مِنَ اللهِ، وَرُؤْيَا تَحْزِينٌ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، وَرُؤْيَا مِمَّا يُحَدِّثُ الْمَرْءُ نَفْسَهُ، فَإِنْ رَأَى أَحَدُكُمْ مَا يَكْرَهُ، فَلْيَقُمْ فَلْيُصَلِّ، وَلَا يُحَدِّثْ بِهَا النَّاسَ»



Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

1. When the time draws near (when the Resurrection is near) a believer's dream can hardly be false.  2. And the truest vision will be of one who is himself the most truthful in speech 3. for the vision of a Muslim is the forty-fifth part of Prophecy 4. and dreams are of three types: one good dream which is a sort of good tidings from Allah.  5. the evil dream which causes pain is from the Satan.  6. and the third one is a suggestion of one's own mind.  7. so if any one of you sees a dream which he does not like he should stand up and offer prayer and he should not relate it to people.’
