Musnad Ahmad 23787

Translation

✧ I was in the mosque when a man came with a trace of humility on his face. He entered and prayed two rak'ahs, making them brief. The people said: This is a man from the people of Paradise. When he left, I followed him until he entered his house, and I entered with him. I talked to him, and when he became at ease, I said to him: When you entered the mosque before, the people said such-and-such. He said: Glory be to Allah. It is not appropriate for anyone to say what he does not know. I will tell you why. I saw a dream at the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and related it to him. I saw as if I was in a green garden - Ibn 'Awn said: He mentioned its greenness and vastness - in its middle was a pillar of iron, its bottom in the earth and its top in the sky. At its top was a handle. It was said to me: Climb it. I said: I cannot. Then a servant came to me - Ibn 'Awn said: He is the attendant - and lifted my clothes from behind me and said: Climb it. So I climbed until I took hold of the handle. He said: Hold fast to the handle. I woke up and it was in my hand. He said: I came to the Prophet ﷺ and related it to him. He said: As for the garden, it is the garden of Islam. As for the pillar, it is the pillar of Islam. As for the handle, it is the firmest handle. You are upon Islam until you die. He said: And he is 'Abdullah b. Salam.
