أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ رَجُلٌ مُنْصَرَفَهُ مِنْ أَحِدٍ فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ فِي الْمَنَامِ كَأَنَّ ظُلَّةً تَنْطُفُ سَمْنًا وَعَسَلًا فَرَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يَتَكَفَّفُونَ مِنْهُ فَالْمُسْتَقِلُّ وَالْمُسْتَكْثِرُ وَرَأَيْتُ سَبَبًا وَاصِلًا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ أَخَذْتَ بِهِ فَعَلَوْتَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ بَعْدَكَ آخَرُ فَعَلَا ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ بَعْدَهُ آخَرُ فَعَلَا ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ بَعْدَهُ آخَرُ فَانْقَطَعَ ثُمَّ وُصِلَ لَهُ فَعَلَا قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ دَعْنِي أَعْبُرْهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «أَعْبُرْهَا» قَالَ أَمَّا الظُّلَّةُ فَهِيَ الْإِسْلَامُ وَأَمَّا مَا يَنْطُفُ مِنَ السَّمْنِ وَالْعَسَلِ فَهُوَ الْقُرْآنُ حَلَاوَتُهُ وَلِينُهُ فَالْمُسْتَقِلُّ وَالْمُسْتَكْثِرُ وَأَمَّا السَّبَبُ الْوَاصِلُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَهُوَ الَّذِي أَنْتَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْحَقُّ أَخَذْتَ بِهِ فَعَلَوْتَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ بَعْدَكَ آخَرُ فَعَلَا ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ بَعْدَهُ آخَرُ فَعَلَا ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ آخَرُ فَانْقَطَعَ فَوُصِلَ لَهُ فَعَلَا هَلْ أَصَبْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَمْ أَخْطَأْتُ؟ فَقَالَ «أَصَبْتَ بَعْضًا وَأَخْطَأْتَ بَعْضًا» قَالَ أَقْسَمْتُ؟ قَالَ «لَا تُقْسِمْ» [112] 7594 أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ كَانَ أَحْيَانًا يَقُولُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَحْيَانًا يَقُولُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ

✧ A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ after he returned from Uhud and said: "I saw in a dream as if a canopy was dripping ghee and honey. I saw the people scooping from it, some taking little and some taking much. I saw a rope reaching to the sky. You took hold of it and ascended. Then another took hold of it after you and ascended. Then another took hold of it after him and ascended. Then another took hold of it after him and it was cut off, then it was connected for him and he ascended." Abu Bakr said: "Let me interpret it, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "Interpret it." He said: "As for the canopy, it is Islam. As for what drips from the ghee and honey, it is the Quran, its sweetness and gentleness. Some people take little and some take much. As for the rope reaching to the sky, it is the truth you are upon. You took hold of it and ascended. Then another took hold of it after you and ascended. Then another took hold of it after him and ascended. Then another took hold of it and it was cut off, then it was connected for him and he ascended. Did I get it right, O Messenger of Allah, or did I err?" He said: "You got some right and some wrong." He said: "I swear?" He said: "Do not swear." [112] 7594 Muhammad b. Rafi informed us, he said: Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us, he said: Ma'mar informed us, from al-Zuhri, from Ubayd Allah b. Abd Allah b. Utbah, sometimes he said from Ibn Abbas and sometimes from Abu Hurayrah, that a man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he related the hadith.
