5125. Narrated 'Aishah رضي الله عنها (Allah's Messenger ﷺ said (to me), "You were shown to me in a dream. An angel brought you to me, wrapped in a piece of silken cloth, and said to me, 'This is your wife.' I removed the piece of cloth from your face, and there you were. I said to myself. 'If it is from Allāh, then it will surely be accomplished'."

5125 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " رَأَيْتُكِ فِي المَنَامِ يَجِيءُ بِكِ المَلَكُ فِي سَرَقَةٍ مِنْ حَرِيرٍ، فَقَالَ لِي: هَذِهِ امْرَأَتُكَ، فَكَشَفْتُ عَنْ وَجْهِكِ الثَّوْبَ فَإِذَا أَنْتِ هِيَ، فَقُلْتُ: إِنْ يَكُ هَذَا مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ يُمْضِهِ "
