SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 9 > BOOK 87: INTERPRETATION OF DREAMS
The Prophet said, “I saw (in a dream) a black woman with unkempt hair going out of Medina and
settling in Mahai’a. I interpreted that as (a symbol of) epidemic of Medina being transferred to Ma –
hai’a, namely, Al-Juhfa.”
Volume 9, Book 87, Number 162:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar:
concerning the dream of the Prophet in Medina: The Prophet said, “I saw (in a dream) a black wo –
man with unkempt hair going out of Medina and settling at Mahai’a. I interpreted that as (a symbol
of) the epidemic of Medina being transferred to Mahai’a, namely, Al-Juhfa.”
Volume 9, Book 87, Number 161:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
The Prophet said, “I saw (in a dream) a black woman with unkempt hair going out of Medina and
settling at Mahai’a, i.e., Al-Juhfa. I interpreted that as a symbol of epidemic of Medina being trans –
ferred to that place (Al-Juhfa).”
Volume 9, Book 87, Number 160:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “We (Muslims) are the last (to come) but (will be) the foremost (on the Day of
Resurrection).” Allah’s Apostle further said, ”While sleeping, I was given the treasures of the world
and two golden bangles were put in my hands, but I felt much annoyed, and those two bangles dis –
tressed me very much, but I was inspired that I should blow them off, so I blew them and they flew
away. Then I interpreted that those two bangles were the liars between whom I was (i.e., the one of
San’a’ and the one of Yamama).”
Volume 9, Book 87, Number 159:
Narrated Abu Musa:
The Prophet said, “I saw in a dream that I was migrating from Mecca to a land where there were
date palm trees. I thought that it might be the land of Al-Yamama or Hajar, but behold, it turned out
to be Yathrib (i.e. Medina). And I saw cows (being slaughtered) there, but the reward given by Allah
is better (than worldly benefits). Behold, those cows proved to symbolize the believers (who were
killed) on the Day (of the battle) of Uhud, and the good (which I saw in the dream) was the good and
the reward and the truth which Allah bestowed upon us after the Badr battle. (or the Battle of Uhud)
and that was the victory bestowed by Allah in the Battle of Khaibar and the conquest of Mecca) .
Volume 9, Book 87, Number 158:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abbas:
Allah’s Apostle said, “While I was sleeping, two golden bangles were put in my two hands, so I got
scared (frightened) and disliked it, but I was given permission to blow them off, and they flew away.
I interpret it as a symbol of two liars who will appear.” ‘Ubaidullah said, “One of them was Al-‘Ansi
who was killed by Fairuz at Yemen and the other was Musailama (at Najd) .

Volume 9, Book 87, Number 157:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar:
I heard Allah’s Apostle saying, “While I was sleeping, I saw that a cup full of milk was brought to
me and I drank of it and gave the remaining of it to ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab.” They asked. What have
you interpreted (about the dream)? O Allah’s Apostle?” The Prophet said. “(It is Religious) knowledge.”
Volume 9, Book 87, Number 156:
Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:
I was a young unmarried man during the lifetime of the Prophet. I used to sleep in the mosque.
Anyone who had a dream, would narrate it to the Prophet. I said, “O Allah! If there is any good for
me with You, then show me a dream so that Allah’s Apostle may interpret it for me.” So I slept and
saw (in a dream) two angels came to me and took me along with them, and they met another angel
who said to me, “Don’t be afraid, you are a good man.” They took me towards the Fire, and behold, it
was built inside like a well, and therein I saw people some of whom I recognized, and then the angels
took me to the right side. In the morning, I mentioned that dream to Hafsa. Hafsa told me that she
had mentioned it to the Prophet and he said, “‘Abdullah is a righteous man if he only prays more at
night.” (Az-Zuhri said, “After that, ‘Abdullah used to pray more at night.”)
