Sunan Ibn Majah 1053 (Book 5, Hadith 251) #30405
Prostration and Prayer in Dreams

SUMMARY: A man told the Prophet ﷺ that he had a dream in which a tree prostrated with him and recited a prayer. The Prophet ﷺ then recited an Ayah of prostration and prostrated, saying something similar to what the man heard the tree say.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: "I was with the Prophet , and a man came to him and said: 'Last night while I was sleeping, I saw that I was praying towards the base of a tree. I recited (an Ayah of) prostration and prostrated, and the tree prostrated when I did, and I heard it saying: Allahummah-tut anni biha wizran, waktub li biha ajran, waj’al-ha li 'indaka dhukhran (O Allah, reduce my burden of sin thereby, reward me for it and store it for me with You).’ Ibn 'Abbas said: "I saw the Prophet recite (an Ayah of) prostration and then prostrate, and I heard him saying in his prostration something like that which the man had told him the tree said".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَلاَّدٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ خُنَيْسٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ، قَالَ قَالَ لِي ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ يَا حَسَنُ أَخْبَرَنِي جَدُّكَ، عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي يَزِيدَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ـ ـ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ الْبَارِحَةَ فِيمَا يَرَى النَّائِمُ كَأَنِّي أُصَلِّي إِلَى أَصْلِ شَجَرَةٍ فَقَرَأْتُ السَّجْدَةَ فَسَجَدْتُ فَسَجَدَتِ الشَّجَرَةُ لِسُجُودِي فَسَمِعْتُهَا تَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ احْطُطْ عَنِّي بِهَا وِزْرًا وَاكْتُبْ لِي بِهَا أَجْرًا وَاجْعَلْهَا لِي عِنْدَكَ ذُخْرًا.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَرَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ـ ـ قَرَأَ السَّجْدَةَ فَسَجَدَ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ مِثْلَ الَّذِي أَخْبَرَهُ الرَّجُلُ عَنْ قَوْلِ الشَّجَرَةِ.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith tells us about how we should respond when we have dreams involving prayer or prostration. It is narrated by Ibn 'Abbas that he was with the Prophet Muhammad when a man came to him and said that he had seen himself praying towards the base of a tree in his dream. The tree then prostrated with him when he recited an Ayah of prostration and said something similar to what the man heard it say. This shows us that we should take our dreams seriously as they can be signs from Allah. We should also recite prayers or supplications during our prostration as this will help us receive rewards from Allah for our actions. Furthermore, this hadith teaches us about how important it is to be mindful of our prayers even while dreaming as these can still be accepted by Allah if done sincerely.
