6993. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "Whoever sees me in a dream will see me in his wakefulness(2), and Shaitān (Satan) cannot impersonate (imitate) me in shape." Abū 'Abdullāh said, "Ibn Sirīn said, 'Only if he sees the Prophet ﷺ in his (real) shape.' (See H. 110)

Arabic text

6993 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ رَآنِي فِي المَنَامِ فَسَيَرَانِي فِي اليَقَظَةِ، وَلاَ يَتَمَثَّلُ الشَّيْطَانُ بِي» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: قَالَ ابْنُ سِيرِينَ: «إِذَا رَآهُ فِي صُورَتِهِ»
