Sunan Ibn Majah 3919 (Book 35, Hadith 27) #33273
A Dream of Righteousness

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a dream that Abdullah ibn Umar had, in which two angels took him to Hell and then to the right. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) interpreted it as a sign of Abdullah's righteousness, but advised him to pray more at night.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said: "I was a young unmarried man at the time of the Messenger of Allah , and I used to stay overnight in the mosque. If any of us had seen a dream, he would tell it to the Prophet . I said: 'O Allah, if there is any good in me before You, show me a dream that the Prophet can interpret for me.’ So I went to sleep and I saw two angels who came to me and took me away. They were met by another angel who said: 'Do not be alarmed,’ and they took me to Hell which was built like a well. In it were people, some of whom I recognized. Then they took me off to the right. In the morning I mentioned that to Hafsah, and Hafsah said that she told the Messenger of Allah about it, and he said: 'Abdullah is a righteous man, if only he would pray more at night.’"
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ الْحِزَامِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الصَّنْعَانِيُّ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ كُنْتُ غُلاَمًا شَابًّا عَزَبًا فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ ـ فَكُنْتُ أَبِيتُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَكَانَ مَنْ رَأَى مِنَّا رُؤْيَا يَقُصُّهَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ـ ـ فَقُلْتُ اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَانَ لِي عِنْدَكَ خَيْرٌ فَأَرِنِي رُؤْيَا يُعَبِّرُهَا لِي النَّبِيُّ ـ ـ ‏.‏ فَنِمْتُ فَرَأَيْتُ مَلَكَيْنِ أَتَيَانِي فَانْطَلَقَا بِي فَلَقِيَهُمَا مَلَكٌ آخَرُ فَقَالَ لَمْ تُرَعْ ‏.‏ فَانْطَلَقَا بِي إِلَى النَّارِ فَإِذَا هِيَ مَطْوِيَّةٌ كَطَىِّ الْبِئْرِ وَإِذَا فِيهَا نَاسٌ قَدْ عَرَفْتُ بَعْضَهُمْ فَأَخَذُوا بِي ذَاتَ الْيَمِينِ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ ذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِحَفْصَةَ فَزَعَمَتْ حَفْصَةُ أَنَّهَا قَصَّتْهَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ ـ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ رَجُلٌ صَالِحٌ لَوْ كَانَ يُكْثِرُ الصَّلاَةَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَكَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ يُكْثِرُ الصَّلاَةَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith tells us about the dream that Ibn 'Umar had when he was young and unmarried. In his dream, two angels took him away and they were met by another angel who said not to be alarmed. They then took him to Hell which was built like a well with people inside it whom he recognized. After this, they took him off to the right side. When Ibn 'Umar told Hafsah about his dream, she told the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The Prophet interpreted it as a sign of Ibn 'Umar's righteousness but advised him to pray more at night. This hadith teaches us that Allah rewards those who are righteous and encourages us all to strive for righteousness in our lives by praying more often at night so we can receive Allah's blessings too.
