حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ حِرَاشٍ عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ الْيَمَانِ
أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ رَأَى فِي النَّوْمِ أَنَّهُ لَقِيَ رَجُلاً مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فَقَالَ نِعْمَ الْقَوْمُ أَنْتُمْ لَوْلاَ أَنَّكُمْ تُشْرِكُونَ تَقُولُونَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ وَشَاءَ مُحَمَّدٌ وَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَمَا وَاللَّهِ إِنْ كُنْتُ لأَعْرِفُهَا لَكُمْ قُولُوا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ شَاءَ مُحَمَّدٌ

a Muslim man saw in a dream that he met a man from among the People of the Book, who said: "What good people you would be if only you were not committing Shirk. For you say: 'What Allah wills and Muhammad wills."' He mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ and he said: "By Allah, I am aware of that. Say: 'What Allah wills then what Muhammad wills."'Another chain from Tufail bin Sakhbarah, the brother of 'Aishah by her mother, from the Prophet ﷺ, with similar wording.

machine translationThus said Ibn ʿUyaynah, from ʿAbd al-Malik, from Ribʿī, from Ḥudhayfah. Shuʿbah and Abū ʿAwānah said: from ʿAbd al-Malik, from Ribʿī b. Ḥirāsh, from al-Ṭufayl, the maternal brother of ʿĀʾishah. Maʿmar said: from ʿAbd al-Malik b. ʿUmayr, from Jābir b. Samurah. The correct version (al-ṣawāb) is the hadith of ʿAbd al-Malik, from Ribʿī, from al-Ṭufayl, the maternal brother of ʿĀʾishah.
