Waki' bin 'Udus narrated that Abu Razin Al-'Uqaili said:
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي يَعْلَى بْنُ عَطَاءٍ ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ وَكِيعَ بْنَ عُدُسٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي رَزِينٍ الْعُقَيْلِيِّ ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " رُؤْيَا الْمُؤْمِنِ جُزْءٌ مِنْ أَرْبَعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنَ النُّبُوَّةِ وَهِيَ عَلَى رِجْلِ طَائِرٍ مَا لَمْ يَتَحَدَّثْ بِهَا فَإِذَا تَحَدَّثَ بِهَا سَقَطَتْ " . قَالَ وَأَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ " وَلاَ يُحَدِّثُ بِهَا إِلاَّ لَبِيبًا أَوْ حَبِيبًا " .
" The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: " The believer's dreams are a portion of the forty portions of Prophet-hood. And it is (as if it is) on the leg of a bird, as long as it is not spoken of. But when it is spoken of it drops." I think he said: " And it should not be discussed except with an intelligent one or a beloved one."
