Volume 5, Book 57, Number 28:
Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah:
The Prophet said, "I saw myself (in a dream) entering Paradise, and behold! I saw Ar-Rumaisa',
Abu Talha's wife. I heard footsteps. I asked, Who is it? Somebody said, 'It is Bilal ' Then I saw a palace
and a lady sitting in its courtyard. I asked, 'For whom is this palace?' Somebody replied, 'It is for
'Umar.' I intended to enter it and see it, but I thought of your ('Umar's) Ghira (and gave up the at –
tempt)." 'Umar said, "Let my parents be sacrificed for you, O Allah's Apostle! How dare I think of my
Ghira (self-respect) being offended by you?
