وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
إِذَا تَقَارَبَ الزَّمَانُ لَمْ يَكَدْ رُؤْيَا الْمُؤْمِنِ تَكْذِبُ، وَأَصْدَقُهُمْ رُؤْيَا أَصْدَقُهُمْ حَدِيثًا، وَرُؤْيَا الْمُؤْمِنِ جُزْءٌ مِنْ سِتَّةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنَ النُّبُوَّةِ، وَالرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ بُشْرَى مِنَ اللهِ، وَالرُّؤْيَا يُحَدِّثُ بِهَا الرَّجُلُ نَفْسَهُ، وَالِاحْتِلَامُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، فَإِذَا رَأَى أَحَدُكُمْ مَا يَكْرَهُ فَلَا يُحَدِّثْ بِهِ

✧ When time draws near, the dream of a believer will scarcely be false. The most truthful of them in dreams are the most truthful in speech. The dream of a believer is one of forty-six parts of prophethood. A righteous dream is glad tidings from God. A dream is something a man tells himself, and a wet dream is from Satan. If one of you sees what he dislikes, let him not speak of it.

يرويه أيوب السختياني واختلف عنه فرواه ابن عيينة وابن علية عن أيوب عن ابن سيرين عن أبي هريرة موقوفا وروى عبد الرحمن بن عمر رستة عن سفيان بن عيينة بهذا الإسناد قوله إذا رأى أحدكم رؤيا يكرهها فليصل ركعتين ولا يخبر بها أحدا فإنها لن تضره مرفوعا إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ورواه عبد الوهاب الثقفي عن أيوب مرفوعا إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بطوله وتابعه حمزة بن أبي حمزة النصيبي على بعض الألفاظ في الحديث فرفعها عن أيوب وكذلك رواه مسندا عن ابن سيرين قتادة وقرة بن خالد وسالم الخياط ويونس بن عبيد وهشام بن حسان وعوف الأعرابي واختلف عنه فرفعه هوذة بن خليفة عن عوف ووقفه حماد بن مسعدة عنه ورواه عاصم الأحول عن ابن سيرين عن أبي هريرة ووقفه ورفعه صحيح
machine translationAyyūb al-Sakhtiyānī narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. Ibn ʿUyaynah and Ibn ʿUlayyah narrated it from Ayyūb, from Ibn Sīrīn, from Abū Hurayrah as a statement of the Companion (mawqūf). ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. ʿUmar Rustah narrated from Sufyān b. ʿUyaynah with this chain the saying: "If one of you sees a dream that he dislikes, let him pray two rakʿahs and not tell anyone of it, for it will not harm him," traced back to the Prophet ﷺ (marfūʿ). ʿAbd al-Wahhāb al-Thaqafī narrated it from Ayyūb, traced back to the Prophet ﷺ, in full. Ḥamzah b. Abī Ḥamzah al-Naṣībī corroborated him on some of the wording in the hadith, so he traced it back from Ayyūb. Likewise it was narrated with a connected chain (musnad) from Ibn Sīrīn by Qatādah, Qurrah b. Khālid, Sālim al-Khayyāṭ, Yūnus b. ʿUbayd, Hishām b. Ḥassān, and ʿAwf al-Aʿrābī, and there is disagreement about him: Hawdhah b. Khalīfah traced it back from ʿAwf, while Ḥammād b. Masʿadah made it mawqūf from him. ʿĀṣim al-Aḥwal narrated it from Ibn Sīrīn, from Abū Hurayrah, and made it mawqūf; and the version traced back to the Prophet ﷺ is sound (ṣaḥīḥ).
