Shama'il al-Muhammadiya 392
Kulayb bin Shihaab Al-Kufi says that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated to me the mubaarak saying of Messenger of Allah ﷺ, that whomsoever sees me in a dream, has really seen me, because the shaytaan cannot impersonate me. Kulayb says, I mentioned this hadith to Ibn 'Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) and also told him that I was blessed with the seeing of Messenger of Allah ﷺ in my dream. At that moment I thought of Hasan bin 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). I said to Ibn 'Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I found the image in my dream very similar to that of Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him). Ibn 'Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) verified my statement, that truly Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) was very similar to Messenger of Allah ﷺ in appearance.
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ هُوَ ابْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: مَنْ رَآنِي فِي الْمَنَامِ فَقَدْ رَآنِي، فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لا يَتَمَثَّلُنِي، قَالَ أَبِي: فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهِ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، فَقُلْتُ: قَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ، فَذَكَرْتُ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ، فَقُلْتُ: شَبَّهْتُهُ بِهِ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: إِنَّهُ كَانَ يُشْبِهُهُ.
