Concerning
the Imaam of Hadeeth,
the Shaykh - Muhammad
Naasiruddeen al-Albaanee (rahima-hullaah),
it has been narrated:
Once
a sister from Algeria called the Shaykh and said: "O
Shaykh! I have news!"
The
Shaykh said: "I hope Allaah has blessed you with good
news".
She
said: "One of the sisters had a dream, and I shall narrate
it to you".
The
Shaykh said: "I hope she saw (something) good".
She
said: "O Shaykh! is this confirmed, that someone comes
and narrates a dream to you and you say: "I hope you
saw (something) good and (hopefully) it is good"? Is
this confirmed from the Sunnah?".
The
Shaykh said: "No. This is not confirmed, however, there
is no harm in using this (term) sometimes".
She
said: "This sister saw herself on a balcony which overlooked
a path. And upon this path she saw the Messenger (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam)
by his (known) description. Then she saw me standing infront
of the Messenger (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam)
and saw the Messenger (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam)
smiling at me, and I was smiling at him.
Then
I called her, and said to her: "Come down. Come down
with us."
So
when she came down she asked me: "Who are you looking
at?"
So
I said: "Look at the one who looked at me", and
she saw the Messenger (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam),
then the Messenger (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam)
smiled, and proceeded along the path.
We
then walked together along the (same) path (the sister and
I) and whilst we were walking we saw a Shaykh upon the (same)
path, so we extended our greetings to him, we said: "as-Salaamu
'alaykum".
So
he replied to us: "wa 'alaykum as-Salaam wa Rahmatullaahe
wa Barakaatuhu."
Then
this Shaykh asked us: "Did you see the Messenger (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam)?"
We
said: "Yes, we saw him."
So
this sister asked me: "Who is this Shaykh?"
So
I said to her: "This is Shaykh al-Albaanee."."
[end of dream]
The
sister who had called the Shaykh, then said: "I ask Allaah
to make this good news for you O Shaykh, and I wished to inform
you O Shaykh, so hopefully it is good news, inshaa.-Allaah,
that you are upon the way of the Sunnah,
inshaa.-Allaah
Ta'aala. So what do you say O Shaykh?"
Here,
the Shaykh did not say a thing, rather, tears began pouring
down (his face) and he cried profusely. He then asked those
of the brothers who were in his gathering to leave.
