Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah beautify you. What is the meaning of the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)
Whoever sees me in a dream will see me in his wakefulnessمن رآني في المنام فسيراني في اليقظة
Sahih al-Bukhari 6993
?

Answer:
If a person knows the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and recognizes him by his characteristics, then if he sees him in a dream, he has indeed seen the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). However, if he does not know the characteristics of the Messenger, Satan may come to him and say, "I am the Messenger." If he does not know the Messenger and cannot distinguish him from others, Satan may delude him. Yes.
