It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When one of you sees a dream that he dislikes, he should spit towards his left side and turn over from the side on which he was lying." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it!

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The most truthful dream is the one seen at the time of sahar (before dawn)." This hadith has an authentic (sahih) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever fabricates a dream (that is, relates a dream he did not see) will be made on the Day of Resurrection to tie a knot in a grain of barley."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever fabricates a dream will be ordered on the Day of Resurrection to tie a knot between two grains of barley." This hadith has an authentic (sahih) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever sees me in a dream has truly seen me, for Satan cannot take my likeness." The narrator said that his father said: I narrated this hadith to Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) and said that I had seen him (peace and blessings be upon him) in a dream. Then I mentioned Sayyiduna al-Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with them both) and likened him (peace and blessings be upon him) to him. Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Indeed, he (Sayyiduna al-Hasan) resembled him (peace and blessings be upon him). This hadith has an authentic (sahih) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it with this wording.

It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about Waraqah bin Nawfal, and Sayyidah Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her) said to him (peace and blessings be upon him): He believed in you, but he died before your (open) manifestation of prophethood. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I was shown him in a dream wearing white clothes, and had he been one of the people of Hell, he would have been wearing some other garment." This hadith has an authentic (sahih) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us one day and said: "I saw in a dream as though Jibril were at my head and Mika'il at my feet. One of them said to his companion: Strike a parable for him. Then he said: Listen, may your ear hear; and understand, may your heart understand. The parable of you and your nation is like that of a king who took an enclosure, then built a house in it, then laid out a table in it, then sent a messenger to invite the people to his food. Some of them accepted the messenger's invitation and some of them ignored him. Allah is the king, the enclosure is Islam, the house is Paradise, and you, O Muhammad, are the Messenger of Allah. Whoever accepts your invitation enters Paradise, and whoever enters Paradise eats all that is in it." This hadith has an authentic (sahih) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked one day: "Has any of you seen a dream?" A man said: I have. It was as though a scale came down from the sky; you and Abu Bakr were weighed and you outweighed Abu Bakr; then Umar and Abu Bakr were weighed and Abu Bakr outweighed; then Umar and Uthman (may Allah be pleased with them both) were weighed and Umar outweighed; then the scale was lifted. (The narrator said:) Then I saw signs of displeasure on the blessed face of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). This hadith has an authentic (sahih) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Qays bin Ubad that he said: I was sitting in a circle in the mosque when a man entered. The people said: This is a man from the people of Paradise. He prayed and left, and I followed him and said to him: The people have said such and such (about you). He said: It is not permissible for anyone to lie or to say what he does not know, and I will tell you the reason for this. I saw a dream which I related to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I saw as though I were in a green garden (he described its vastness and its greenery), and in the very middle of the garden was a pillar of iron. A man came to me and said to me: Climb it. I said: I am not able to climb. He said: Then a servant came from behind me and supported me, and lifted me up along with my clothes. When I reached the very top of the pillar, there was a ring there, and I put my hand into the ring. When I woke in the morning, the ring was as though still in my hand. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said (interpreting it): "As for the garden, it is the garden of Islam; as for the pillar, it is the pillar of Islam; and as for the ring, you have taken hold of the firmest handhold (al-'urwah al-wuthqa), and you will remain steadfast upon Islam until you die." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim); had the name of the man in it been known, it would be sahih on the condition of both of them.

It is narrated from Yahya bin Abd al-Rahman bin Hatib that a group of believing women gathered with the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her). One of them said: By Allah, Allah will never punish me, for I gave my pledge to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that I would not associate anything with Allah, nor steal, nor kill my children, nor bring forth a slander that I have invented between my hands and my feet, nor disobey him in anything good, and I have fulfilled all of it. The narrator said: When she returned to her house, she was visited in her dream, and it was said: Are you the one who swears by Allah that He will not punish you? Then what about your involving yourself in matters that do not concern you, and your withholding what does not make you independent (of need)? She came back to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) and said: In my dream I was told such and such, and I seek forgiveness from Allah and repent to Him.
