Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"All that is left
from Prophethood is the glad tidings.
'' He was asked what the glad tidings were, and he said,
"The good dream.''
[Al-Bukhari].
Commentary:
Dreams are both pleasant and unpleasant or nightmarish. Sometimes a dream is based on truth and
foreshadows a coming event. The significance of such a dream is realised at a moment when our vision flows into a
real occurrence. Coming to the meaning of this Hadith, since the institution of Prophethood is abolished, Revelation
too cannot descend upon anybody. Yet, one Prophetic vestige still exists and that means a prophetic dream about
some future event. It may be with a good or bad omen, though this Hadith brings into focus dreams with good
tidings alone.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) said, "
When the time draws
near (i.e., near the end of the world), the dream of a believer can hardly be false; and the dream of a believer
represents one part from forty-six parts of Prophethood.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
One narration says: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"The most truthful of you in their speech are those who see
the truest visions.''
Commentary:
According to the saying of Messenger of Allah (PBUH), in the last phase of this world, true
believers will see dreams in which Allah will show them certain facts. Al-Muhallab said: The visions of the Prophets
are true and those of the believers are mostly true because Satan does not overtake their hearts. As for the dreams of
the disbelievers and the disobedient Muslims, they are mostly untrue because Satan has overtaken their hearts.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"He who sees me
in his dream will see me in his wakefulness (or he (PBUH) may have said it is as though he has seen me in a state of
wakefulness), for Satan does not appear in my form.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim ].
Commentary:
Two things are reported in this Hadith. The narrator forgets which of the two has been uttered by
Messenger of Allah (PBUH). If it is the first, it means that a believer who saw Messenger of Allah (PBUH) in a
dream would also see him on the Day of Resurrection. In a sense it verifies the veracity of the believer. In the case
of the second, the sense is clear. Yet, Satan may also appear in a believer's dream under a saintly guise and put him
into delusion that he has seen Messenger of Allah (PBUH). Every Muslim, therefore, is required to know the
identity and features of Messenger of Allah (PBUH) so that Satan may not deceive him.
