Question:
Our sister asks if there are specific hadiths for one who wishes to see the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a dream?
Answer:
I do not know of anything in this matter. Seeing the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) does not indicate righteousness or corruption; the wicked may see him, and the believer may see him. However, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us that Satan does not resemble him in his appearance. Whoever sees him has indeed seen him, if he sees him in his true form, because Satan cannot assume his form. But if he sees him in his claim, and he orders him to do something that contradicts the Shari'ah, that is a sign that he did not see him and that it was Satan. If one sees someone he thinks is the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) telling him, "No, there is no harm in fornication, or in drinking intoxicants, or in severing family ties," that is a sign that he did not see him (peace and blessings be upon him) and that this was Satan who resembled him in a form other than his true appearance, peace and blessings be upon him.
So the conclusion is that a dream may occur to a disbeliever or a Muslim, and to a sinner. But if he sees him in his true form, it is the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). If he does not see him in his true form, it is Satan who resembled him and claimed to be him. Among the signs that a dream is invalid and that he did not see the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is seeing him in a form other than his true appearance: seeing him black, or seeing him with a full head of white hair, whereas he had only a few white hairs when he died ......, or seeing him shaved, or something similar. These are signs that he did not see the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), because he (peace and blessings be upon him) was among the most beautiful of people, and he was white with a tinge of redness, and he was of medium stature among men (peace and blessings be upon him). His hair was black, with only a few white hairs in his lifetime, peace and blessings be upon him.
So the point is: whoever sees him in his true form has indeed seen him. But if he is upright in obedience to Allah and follows His Shari'ah, that benefits him. Otherwise, the dream does not benefit him if he is not upright in the religion of Allah. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
