Seeing Prophet in Dreams and Visions Book | Islamic Guide by Shaykh Mashoor Salman

Seeing the Prophet (PBUH) in Dreams and Visions by Shaykh Mashoor Salman is a spiritually enriching Islamic book that explores the reality and authenticity of seeing the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in dreams. Based on authentic Hadith, the book explains that Shaytan cannot take the form of the Prophet ﷺ, making such visions truthful when they meet correct descriptions. It provides guidance on distinguishing true dreams from false ones and highlights their spiritual significance in a believer’s life. The author also shares scholarly insights and real accounts to deepen understanding of this unique experience. This concise yet powerful work is essential for Muslims seeking clarity about dreams, their meanings, and their connection to faith and devotion.

From Author:

It has been confirmed in a number of hadith, sahih and hasan, that shaytan is unable to takes the form of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and is unable to present to the seer an image which causes him doubt as to whether it is Prophet PBUH or not. The most famous of these ahadith is what has been reported by al-Bukhari (no.6993) Muslim (no. 2266) and others from the hadith of Hadhrat Abu Hurayrah (RA) who attributed it to the Prophet (PBUH): “Whoever sees me in a dream will see me when awake, or it is as if he has seen me while awake, and shaytan cannot resemble me.” In al-Bukhari (no. 6996) and Muslim (no.2267) from the hadith of Hadhrat Abu Qatadah (RA) who attributed it to the Prophet (PBUH) “whoever sees me (in a vision) has definitely seen me.” And the Prophet (PBUH) said “whoever sees me (in a vision) has seen the truth as Shaytan does not take my Form.”

The righteous had many visions of the Prophet and it has been famed that some from this Ummah had many visions on a regular basis. To the extent that some people classified works on this topic
Of the works which have been authored in regards to this subject are:
Muhammad Kanun, Hidayat ul-Muhibb wa'l-Mushtaq al-Mustaham li'r- Ru'yat man buniya 'alayhi'l-Mulk wa'l-Khilafah fi'l-Manam 'alayhi Salat wa's- Salam [Guiding the Eager and Devoted Lover to Visualise the One Upon Whom Had the Dominion and Caliphate Built for, in Dreams]
* Muhammad 'Abdur Rahim, Qasas wa Akhbar man Ra'a Sayyid al-Abrar fil- Manam [Stories and Reports of Those Who Saw the Master of the Righteous in Dreams]. Egypt: 1410 AH/1990 CE.
As for the works which have not been published then they are very many and it is difficult to restrict and compile them, yet these are what I came across:
* Abū 'Abdullah Muhammad al-Adh'ati (d.727 AH/1327 CE), Tuhfat ut- Tullab al-Mustaham fi Ru'yat an-Nabi 'alayhi's-Salat wa's-Salam [A Gift for Devoted Seekers for Visualising the Prophet upon him be prayers and peace].
