There was a rope, which was reaching from the earth to the sky. I saw you holding it and climbing up, then another man held it and he also climbed up, then a third man held it and he also climbed up, then a man held it but the rope broke, then it was joined again.

Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! May my parents be sacrificed for you, allow me to interpret it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (Alright) you interpret it. Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The canopy is Islam and the honey and ghee dripping from it refers to the sweetness of the Qur’an. So some people will learn more of the Qur’an and some less, and the rope reaching from the sky to the earth is the truth, upon which you are established. Allah Almighty will exalt you through it. Then a man will hold it, he will also be elevated with it, then another man will hold it, he will also be elevated with it, then a third man will hold it, then it will break. Then it will be joined, then he will be elevated with it. O Messenger of Allah! May my parents be sacrificed for you, tell me, is the interpretation I have given correct or incorrect? The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Some parts you have interpreted correctly and in some you have made a mistake. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By Allah! You will surely tell me my mistake. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Abu Bakr! Do not swear.

Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates that I saw in a dream that there was a piece of silk in my hand; wherever in Paradise I pointed towards, it would carry me there.

I was an unmarried youth and during the blessed era of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I used to sleep in the mosque. I saw in a dream that two angels had caught me and were taking me towards the fire. There was a wall there, like the wall of a well, and it had two pillars. There were some people in it whom I recognized. Seeing this, I began to say: I seek refuge with Allah from the fire, I seek refuge with Allah from the fire. Those two angels were met by another angel. He said to me: Abdullah, you must not fear. I related this dream to my sister, Sayyida Hafsa (may Allah be pleased with her). She mentioned it to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Abdullah is a good man, just one thing is that if he were to begin standing (in prayer) at night (it would be very good).

Thus, he used to read both these books.
