Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah
ibn Abi Talha al-Ansari from Anas ibn Malik that the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "The good dream of a man who is salih is a
forty-sixth part of prophecy."
Yahya related the like of that to me from Malik from
Abu'z-Zinad from al-Araj from Abu Hurayra from the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah
ibn Abi Talha from Zufar ibn Sasaca from his father from
Abu Hurayra that when the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, left the morning prayer, he
would say, "Has any of you had a dream last night? All
that will remain of prophecy after me will be the true
dream ."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from
Ata ibn Yasar that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, "All that will be left of
prophecy after me are the mubashshirat." They said, "What
are the mubashshirat, Messenger of Allah?" He said, "The
true dream which a man who is salih sees - or which is
shown to him - is a forty-sixth part of prophecy."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that
Abu Salama ibn Abd ar-Rahman said, "I heard Abu Qatada ibn
Ribiyy say that he heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, say, 'The good dream is
from Allah, and the bad dream is from shaytan. When you
see what you dislike, spit to your left side three times
when you wake up, and seek refuge with Allah from its
evil. It will not harm you then, Allah willing.' " Abu
Salama said, "I would see dreams which weighed on me more
heavily than a mountain. When I heard this hadith, I was
not concerned about it."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa
that his father said about this ayat, "You have good news
in the life of this world and the next world," (Sura 10
ayat 64), that it was the good dream which the man who was
salih saw or which was shown to him.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Musa ibn Maysara
from Said ibn Abi Hind from Abu Musa al-Ashari that the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "Whoever plays games of dice has disobeyed
Allah and His Messenger. "
Yahya related to me from Malik from Alqama from his
mother that A'isha, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, heard that the people who
lived in a room in her house had some dice. She sent a
message to them, "If you do not remove them, I will remove
you from my house," and she reproached them for it.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi from Abdullah
ibn Umar that when he found one of his family playing dice
he beat him and destroyed the dice.
Yahya said that he heard Malik say, "There is no good
in chess, and he disapproved of it." Yahya said, "I heard
him disapprove of playing it and other worthless games. He
recited this ayat, 'What is there after the truth except
going the wrong way.' " (Sura l0 ayat 32).
