حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ کَانَ الرَّجُلُ فِي حَيَاةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا رَأَی رُؤْيَا قَصَّهَا عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَتَمَنَّيْتُ أَنْ أَرَی رُؤْيَا أَقُصُّهَا عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَکُنْتُ غُلَامًا شَابًّا أَعْزَبَ وَکُنْتُ أَنَامُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ عَلَی عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرَأَيْتُ فِي الْمَنَامِ کَأَنَّ مَلَکَيْنِ أَخَذَانِي فَذَهَبَا بِي إِلَی النَّارِ فَإِذَا هِيَ مَطْوِيَّةٌ کَطَيِّ الْبِئْرِ وَإِذَا لَهَا قَرْنَانِ کَقَرْنَيْ الْبِئْرِ وَإِذَا فِيهَا نَاسٌ قَدْ عَرَفْتُهُمْ فَجَعَلْتُ أَقُولُ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ النَّارِ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ النَّارِ فَلَقِيَهُمَا مَلَکٌ آخَرُ فَقَالَ لِي لَنْ تُرَاعَ فَقَصَصْتُهَا عَلَی حَفْصَةَ فَقَصَّتْهَا حَفْصَةُ عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ نِعْمَ الرَّجُلُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لَوْ کَانَ يُصَلِّي بِاللَّيْلِ قَالَ سَالِمٌ فَکَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لَا يَنَامُ مِنْ اللَّيْلِ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 3739
Narrated Ibn `Umar: If a man saw a dream during the lifetime of the Prophet he would narrate it to the Prophet. Once I wished to see a dream and narrate it to the Prophet I was young, unmarried, and used to sleep in the Mosque during the lifetime of the Prophet. I dreamt that two angels took me and went away with me towards the (Hell) Fire which looked like a well with the inside walls built up, and had two side-walls like those of a well. There I saw some people in it whom I knew. I started saying, "I seek Refuge with Allah from the (Hell) Fire, I seek Refuge with Allah from the (Hell) Fire." Then another angel met the other two and said to me, "Do not be afraid." I narrated my dream to Hafsa who, in her turn, narrated it to the Prophet. He said, "What an excellent man `Abdullah is if he only observes the night prayer." (Salem, a sub-narrator said, "Abdullah used not to sleep at night but very little hence forward."
