أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ هُوَ ابْنُ كَثِيرٍ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ مِمَّا يَقُولُ لِأَصْحَابِهِ «مَنْ رَأَى مِنْكُمْ رُؤْيَا فَلْيَقُصَّهَا عَلَيَّ فَأَعْبُرَهَا لَهُ» قَالَ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَأَيْتُ ظُلَّةً بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ تَنْطِفُ عَسَلًا وَسَمْنًا وَرَأَيْتُ سَبَبًا وَاصِلًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَرَأَيْتُ أُنَاسًا يَتَكَفَّفُونَ مِنْهَا فَمُسْتَكْثِرٌ وَمُسْتَقِلٌّ وَرَأَيْتُ سَبَبًا وَاصِلًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَأَخَذْتَ بِهِ فَعَلَوْتَ «فَأَعْلَاكَ اللَّهُ» ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ الَّذِي بَعْدَكَ فَعَلَا «فَأَعْلَاهُ اللَّهُ» ثُمَّ أَخَذَهُ الَّذِي بَعْدَهُ فَعَلَا «فَأَعْلَاهُ اللَّهُ» ثُمَّ أَخَذَهُ الَّذِي بَعْدَهُ فَقُطِعَ بِهِ ثُمَّ وُصِلَ فَاتَّصَلَ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ائْذَنْ لِي فَأَعْبُرَهَا فَقَالَ «اعْبُرْهَا» وَكَانَ أَعْبَرَ النَّاسِ لِلرُّؤْيَا بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَمَّا الظُّلَّةُ فَالْإِسْلَامُ وَأَمَّا الْعَسَلُ وَالسَّمْنُ فَالْقُرْآنُ حَلَاوَةُ الْعَسَلِ وَلِينُ السَّمْنِ وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ يَتَكَفَّفُونَ مِنْهُ فَمُسْتَكْثِرٌ وَمُسْتَقِلٌّ فَهُمْ حَمَلَةُ الْقُرْآنِ وَأَمَّا السَّبَبُ الْوَاصِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَالْحَقُّ الَّذِي أَنْتَ عَلَيْهِ تَأْخُذُ بِهِ فَيُعْلِيكَ اللَّهُ بِهِ ثُمَّ يَأْخُذُ بِهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ فَيَعْلُوَ بِهِ ثُمَّ يَأْخُذُ بِهِ رَجُلٌ آَخَرُ فَيَعْلُو بِهِ ثُمَّ يَأْخُذُ بِهِ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَيَنْقَطِعُ بِهِ ثُمَّ يَوصَلُ لَهُ فَيَعْلُو بِهِ فَأَخْبِرْنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بَأَبِي أَنْتَ أَصَبْتُ أَمْ أَخْطَأْتَ فَقَالَ «أَصَبْتَ وَأَخْطَأْتَ» فَقَالَ فَمَا الَّذِي أَصَبْتُ؟ وَمَا الَّذِي أَخْطَأْتُ؟ فَأَبَى أَنْ يُخْبِرَهُ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say to his companions: “Whoever among you sees a dream, let him relate it to me and I will interpret it for him.” He said: A man came and said: O Messenger of Allah, I saw a canopy between the sky and the earth dripping honey and butter, and I saw a rope extending from the sky to the earth, and I saw people taking from it, some taking much and some taking little, and I saw a rope extending from the sky to the earth. You took hold of it and ascended, and Allah raised you. Then the one after you took hold of it and ascended, and Allah raised him. Then the one after him took hold of it and ascended, and Allah raised him. Then the one after him took hold of it, and it was cut off for him, then it was joined and connected. Abu Bakr said: O Messenger of Allah, permit me to interpret it. He said: “Interpret it.” He was the most skilled of people in interpreting dreams after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: As for the canopy, it is Islam. As for the honey and butter, it is the Qur’an: the sweetness of honey and the softness of butter. As for those taking from it, some much and some little, they are the bearers of the Qur’an. As for the rope extending from the sky to the earth, it is the truth that you are upon. You take hold of it and Allah raises you by it. Then a man after you takes hold of it and rises by it. Then another man takes hold of it and rises by it. Then another man takes hold of it and it is cut off for him, then it is joined for him and he rises by it. So tell me, O Messenger of Allah, may my father be your ransom, did I get it right or wrong? He said: “You got some right and some wrong.” He said: What did I get right and what did I get wrong? He refused to tell him.
