Whenever the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went to Quba, he would visit Umm Haram bint Milhan, who would feed him. Umm Haram was married to Ubada bin Samit. One day the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came in to her, and she gave him food and sat combing through his hair for lice. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ fell asleep, then woke up laughing.She said, "I asked, 'What makes you laugh, Messenger of Allah?'"He replied, "Some people of my community were shown to me setting out as warriors in the path of Allah, riding upon the swell of this sea like kings upon their thrones," or "like kings upon their thrones." Ishaq was uncertain which of the two phrases he said.She said, "I said, 'Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah that He make me one of them.'"So he prayed for her. Then he laid down his head and slept again, then woke up laughing.She said, "I asked, 'What makes you laugh, Messenger of Allah?'"He replied, "Some people of my community were shown to me as warriors in the path of Allah, kings upon thrones," or "like kings upon thrones," as he had said the first time.She said, "I said, 'Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah that He make me one of them.'"He answered, "You are among the first."She later sailed on the sea during the time of Muawiya, and when she came out from the sea she was thrown from her mount and died.
كان رسول الله ﷺ إذا ذهب إلى قباء يدخل على أم حرام بنت ملحان فتطعمه، وكانت أم حرام تحت عبادة بن الصامت، فدخل عليها رسول الله ﷺ يوما فأطعمته، وجلست تفلي رأسه فنام رسول الله ﷺ ثم استيقظ وهو يضحك، قالت: فقلت: ما يضحكك يا رسول الله؟ قال: ناس من أمتي عرضوا علي غزاة في سبيل الله يركبون ثبج هذا البحر ملوكا على الأسرة أو مثل الملوك على الأسرة يشك إسحاق أيهما قال قالت: فقلت يا رسول الله، ادع الله أن يجعلني منهم، فدعا لها، ثم وضع رأسه فنام ثم استيقظ وهو يضحك قالت: فقلت: ما يضحكك يا رسول الله؟ قال: ناس من أمتي عرضوا علي غزاة في سبيل الله ملوكا على الأسرة أو مثل الملوك على الأسرة كما قال في الأولى، قالت: فقلت: يا رسول الله ادع الله أن يجعلني منهم، فقال: أنت من الأولين قال: فركبت البحر في زمن معاوية فصرعت عن دابتها حين خرجت من البحر فهلكت.
Malik narrated it in Jihad (39), from Ishaq bin Abdullah bin Abu Talha, from Anas bin Malik, and he related it. Bukhari narrated it in Ta'bir (7001, 7002) and Muslim in Imarah (1912:110), both by way of Malik, in the same manner.As for what has been reported from Abu Saeed Khudri, as a raised hadith, "The truest dreams are those seen before dawn," its chain contains weakness. Tirmidhi narrated it (2274) and Ahmad (11240, 11650), and Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (6041), as did Hakim (4/392), through various routes from Darraj Abu Samh, from Abu Haytham, from Abu Saeed, and he related it. Hakim said, This is a hadith sahih in its chain.I say, this Darraj is truthful, but there is weakness in his hadith from Abu Haytham.
