As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu
Tahajjud - 9th Jumada-ath-Thani 1424 (8 August 2003)
Narrated by Salims father (Radhiallaho anho): In the lifetime of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) whosoever saw a dream would narrate it to Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam). I had a wish of seeing a dream to narrate it to Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam). I was a grown up boy and used to sleep in the Mosque in the lifetime of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam). I saw in the dream that two angels caught hold of me and took me to the Fire which was built all round like a built well and had two poles in it and the people in it were known to me. I started saying, "I seek refuge with Allah from the Fire." Then I met another angel who told me not to be afraid. I narrated the dream to Hafsa who told it to Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam). The Prophet (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said, "Abdullah is a good man. I wish he prayed Tahajjud." After that 'Abdullah (i.e. Salim's father) used to sleep but a little at night.
