Sayyiduna Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I saw in a dream that a sun or a moon was being lifted from the earth and taken to the sky. He related this dream to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), so he (peace be upon him) interpreted it that it referred to the death of his nephew, meaning the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) himself.
