Narrated Abu Musa:
The Prophet said, “I saw in a dream that I moved a sword and its blade got broken, and that sym –
bolized the casualties which the believers suffered on the day of Uhud. Then I moved it again, and it
became as perfect as it had been, and that symbolized the Conquest (of Mecca) which Allah helped
us to achieve, and the union of all the believers. I (also) saw cows in the dream, and what Allah does
is always beneficial. Those cows appeared to symbolize the faithful believers (who were martyred)
on the day of Uhud.”

migrations.”

The Prophet entered a garden and ordered me to guard its gate. A man came and asked permission
to enter. The Prophet said, “Admit him and give him the glad tidings of entering Paradise.” Behold! It
was Abu Bakr. Another man came and asked the permission to enter. The Prophet said, “Admit him
and give him the glad tidings of entering Paradise.” Behold! It was ‘Umar. Then another man came,
asking the permission to enter. The Prophet kept silent for a short while and then said, “Admit him
and give him the glad tidings of entering Paradise with a calamity which will befall him.” Behold! It
was ‘Uthman bin ‘Affan. ‘Asim, in another narration, said that the Prophet was sitting in a place
where there was water, and he was uncovering both his knees or his knee, and when ‘Uthman
entered, he covered them (or it).

the gate. The Prophet said to me, “Open the gate for him and give him the glad tidings that he will
enter Paradise.” I opened (the gate) for him, and behold! It was Abu Bakr. I informed him of the glad
tidings the Prophet had said, and he praised Allah. Then another man came and asked me to open
the gate. The Prophet said to me “Open (the gate) and give him the glad tidings of entering Paradise.”
I opened (the gate) for him, and behold! It was ‘Umar. I informed him of what the Prophet had said,
and he praised Allah. Then another man came and asked me to open the gate. The Prophet said to
me. “Open (the gate) for him and inform him of the glad tidings, of entering Paradise with a calamity
which will befall him. ” Behold ! It was ‘Uthman, I informed him of what Allah’s Apostle had said. He
praised Allah and said, “I seek Allah’s Aid.”

Volume 4, Book 56, Number 818:
Narrated Abu Musa:
The Prophet said, “In a dream I saw myself migrating from Mecca to a place having plenty of date
trees. I thought that it was Al-Yamama or Hajar, but it came to be Medina i.e. Yathrib. In the same
dream I saw myself moving a sword and its blade got broken. It came to symbolize the defeat which
the Muslims suffered from, on the Day of Uhud. I moved the sword again, and it became normal as
before, and that was the symbol of the victory Allah bestowed upon Muslims and their gathering to –
gether. I saw cows in my dream, and by Allah, that was a blessing, and they symbolized the believers
on the Day of Uhud. And the blessing was the good Allah bestowed upon us and the reward of true
belief which Allah gave us after the day of Badr.

dish) to other meals.”
