2292. Ibn 'Abbās narrated from Abū Hurairah that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "I had a dream while sleeping as if there were two gold bracelets in my hands which bothered me very much. So it was revealed to me to blow them off. I blew them off and they flew away. I interpreted them to be two liars who would appear after me. One of them called Maslamah of Yamāmah, and (the other) Al-'Ansi of Ṣan'ā." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
He said: This Hadīth is Ṣaḥīḥ [Hasan] Gharīb.

Commentary
Man works with his hands, and putting bracelets on hands means preventing a person, in this case the Prophet ﷺ, from his work of spreading the Message of Islam. This was a disturbing situation for him. In order to get rid of it he was commanded to blow the bracelets off since the impediment was not very serious or strong.
