Arabic text

عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ إِذَا رَأَى الرَّجُلُ مَا يَكْرَهُ فِي مَنَامِهِ فَلْيَتَحَوَّلْ عَنْ شِقِّهِ الَّذِي كَانَ عَلَيْهِ نَائِماً وَ لْيَقُلْ إِنَّمَا النَّجْوى مِنَ الشَّيْطانِ لِيَحْزُنَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَ لَيْسَ بِضارِّهِمْ شَيْئاً إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ لْيَقُلْ عُذْتُ بِمَا عَاذَتْ بِهِ مَلَائِكَةُ اللَّهِ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ وَ أَنْبِيَاؤُهُ الْمُرْسَلُونَ وَ عِبَادُهُ الصَّالِحُونَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا رَأَيْتُ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ.

Translation

106. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr, from Muawiya Bin Ammaar, who has said: Abu Abdullah (asws) said: ‘If the man sees what he does not like in his dream, so he should change his sleeping position which he was in and should say, ‘The whispering is from the Satan (la) to aggrieve those who Believe’, and nothing would harm him except by the Permission of Allah (azwj). Then he should say, ‘I seek Refuge with what the Angels of Proximity of Allah (azwj) and His (azwj) Prophets (as), and the righteous servants sought Refuge with, from the evil what I saw, and from the evil of the castaway Satan (la)’.
