Dream:
I was walking with the the Prophet Muhammad (s) peace be upon him after greeting them and i shyly held their hand and they smiled at me this made me happy we walked and the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon gave him salam to Abu Bakr Siddiq. I knew this was sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq because the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him uttered their name and the Prophet Muhammad (s) peace be upon hims voice sounded soft i kissed sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq’s hand and lots of pious children came and we were walking behing sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq and prophet Muhammad peace be upon him and they both sat and we all sat and I saw a staff like object and prophet Muhammad peace be upon him gave it to me and i had a very happy feeling and every time i looked or smelt it it reminded me of the best of creation prophet Muhammad peace be upon him we were sitting and i saw a all the children sitting with us that i knew of and some that i didn’t know of then we introduced each other .
After the introduction we saw prophet Muhammad peace be upon him placing their saliva in to a cup like object and we all drank from it every time the cup filling again and again, After a While i leaned against the shoulder of prophet Muhammad peace be upon him and everyone smiled.
Interpretation:
This dream is clear and self-explanatory. Whoever saw the Prophet (s) in a dream saw him in reality for shaytan cannot imitate his form. And our shuyukh have explained that whoever saw the Prophet (s) in the dream will be saved from seven of the greatest tribulations to face him or her in dunya and seven in akhira. Similarly, seeing Sayyidina Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (r) in the same dream shows you are connected to him, through your tariqah lineage and he has accepted you. And being with children shows the state of your soul as pure in a state of fitrah and this is due to your excessive love of the Prophet (s) and excessive praise of him. Receiving the Prophet’s saliva is a cure for all your spiritual ailments and perfecting your `amal, for the Prophet (s) said:
بسم الله، تربة أرضنا بريقة بعضنا يشفى سقيمنا بإذن ربنا
Bismillah, the dust of our earth mixed with the saliva of some of us cures our ill, by permission of our Lord. (Bukhari and Muslim)
Congratulations on this good tidings!
