Tirmidhi Book 34, Hadith 2270

حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ الثَّقَفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِذَا اقْتَرَبَ الزَّمَانُ لَمْ تَكَدْ رُؤْيَا الْمُؤْمِنِ تَكْذِبُ وَأَصْدَقُهُمْ رُؤْيَا أَصْدَقُهُمْ حَدِيثًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَرُؤْيَا الْمُسْلِمِ جُزْءٌ مِنْ سِتَّةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنَ النُّبُوَّةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالرُّؤْيَا ثَلَاثٌ:‏‏‏‏ فَالرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ بُشْرَى مِنَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالرُّؤْيَا مِنْ تَحْزِينِ الشَّيْطَانِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالرُّؤْيَا مِمَّا يُحَدِّثُ بِهَا الرَّجُلُ نَفْسَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِذَا رَأَى أَحَدُكُمْ مَا يَكْرَهُ فَلْيَقُمْ فَلْيَتْفُلْ وَلَا يُحَدِّثْ بِهَا النَّاسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَأُحِبُّ الْقَيْدَ فِي النَّوْمِ وَأَكْرَهُ الْغُلَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏الْقَيْدُ ثَبَاتٌ فِي الدِّينِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: When time draws near, the dreams of a believer will hardly ever fail to come true, and the most truthful of them in dreams will be the truest in speech among them. The dream of a Muslim is a portion among the forty-six portions of Prophet-hood. And dreams are of three types: The righteous dream which is good news from Allah, dreams in which the Shaithan frightens someone, and dreams about something that has happened to the man himself. So when one of you sees what he dislikes, then he should get up and spit, and not tell any of the people- he said:- and I like the fetters in a dream while I dislike the iron collar. And the interpretation of fetters is being firm in the religion .
