اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ ، وَعَلَى أَزْوَاجِهِ وَذُرِّيَّتِهِ
، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، وَبَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى أَزْوَاجِهِ
وَذُرِّيَّتِهِ ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ
The Salihiya sect
are attributed to the theologian Salih b. Abd Allah known as “Qubba”. Among the
examples of the absurdity of kalam theology is to be found in the
conclusions and doctrines of this sect: “They hold also that dreams are true
and that they are in the category of the wakeful state. Should a man see in a
dream that he is in the west while he is in the east, God would have
spontaneously created him in the west at that very moment. The proof is that we
may witness in the dream state the like of that in the wakeful state. If that
were false, vision would be false. What one sees in the mirror is, according to
them, merely another man like oneself that God spontaneously creates. The proof
is that we may see two things, and if it were possible that one of the two is
false, it would equally be possible that the other is false.” (Bab
al-Shaytan of Abu Tamam p.83)
Ibn Hazm writes
about Salih Qubba: The student of al-Nizam, Salih Qubba, believed that “whatever
visions we see are true as seen, so if one sees that he is in China, when he is
actually in Andalusia, then at that point Allah has created him to be in China.”
(al-Fisl fil-Milal v.5 p.123)
And this doctrine
is refuted rationally, but also by the Hadith of the Prophet ﷺ in which he said:
وَمَنْ
رَآنِي فِي الْمَنَامِ فَقَدْ رَآنِي، فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لاَ يَتَمَثَّلُ فِي صُورَتِي
“Whoever sees me in
a dream has (in fact) seen me, for Satan cannot imitate my form.” (Bukhari
& Muslim)
In this Hadith is
implied that Satan is able to imitate forms and show falsehoods to people in
dreams, but there is an exception when it comes to the Prophet whose form Satan
cannot imitate. Hence, if a person sees the Prophet ﷺ in a dream while sleeping, he has in fact seen the Prophet ﷺ truly and in reality.
