Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ وَكِيعِ بْنِ عُدُسٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ أَبِي رَزِينٍ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ الرُّؤْيَا مُعَلَّقَةٌ بِرِجْلِ طَائِرٍ مَا لَمْ يُحَدِّثْ بِهَا صَاحِبُهَا فَإِذَا حَدَّثَ بِهَا وَقَعَتْ وَلَا تُحَدِّثُوا بِهَا إِلَّا عَالِمًا أَوْ نَاصِحًا أَوْ لَبِيبًا وَالرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ جُزْءٌ مِنْ أَرْبَعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنْ النُّبُوَّةِ.
English Translation
Bahz told us: Hammad ibn Salama told us, from Ya'la ibn Ata', from Waki' ibn Udus, from his uncle Abu Razin, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: 'A dream is suspended by the leg of a bird as long as its owner has not related it; but when he relates it, it comes to pass. And relate it only to a knowledgeable person, or a sincere advisor, or one of sound judgment. And a good dream is one part out of forty parts of prophecy.'
