Ibn Umar's silk thread in the dream and the Prophet's praise

Abdullah ibn Umar saw in a dream as though a piece of silk brocade was in his hand; wherever he wished in Paradise it flew to him. He told it to Hafsa, who told the Prophet, who said "Abdullah is a righteous man; would that he prayed at night" ¹ Muslim 2479.

In this hadith the good dream is glad tidings, and the Prophet interpreted it as a sign of Ibn Umar's goodness, advising him to keep up the night prayer ¹. It is among the texts of the good dream in the Sahih ¹.

This episode is among the clearest models of the good dream in the Sahih; this browser shows it in the dreams section with the rest of the dream texts ¹.
