Abu Salamah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that sometimes I used to see frightening dreams, but I did not let them become a burden on myself until one day I met Hazrat Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him). I mentioned this matter to him, so he narrated this hadith to me: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Good dreams are from Allah and bad dreams are from Satan. Therefore, whoever sees a disliked dream should not mention it to anyone. Rather, after seeing the dream, he should spit lightly three times to his left and seek refuge in Allah from its evil. In this way, that dream will not harm him."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to lead us in prayer, and in the first two rak'ahs of Zuhr and Asr, he would recite Surah Al-Fatihah and another surah, and sometimes he would let us hear a verse from it. In the last two rak'ahs, he would recite only Surah Al-Fatihah. In the Fajr prayer, he would make the first rak'ah long.

I submitted: I saw you sitting and the people also appeared to be sitting, so I sat down as well. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When any one of you enters the mosque, he should not sit until he has offered two rak‘ahs.
