The Miracles of the Nabi Pakﷺ – part 45

10.Nabi Pakﷺ Prophecy to ‘Abdullâh Ibn Salâm:

Imâm al-Bukhârî narrated on the authority of Qais Ibn ‘Ubâd who said: “While I was sitting in the Mosque of Madinah, there entered a man (‘Abdulâh Ibn Salâm) with signs of solemnity upon his face. The people said: “He is one of the people of Paradise.” He prayed two light Rak‘as and then left. I followed him and said: “When you entered the Mosque, the people said: “He is one of the people of Paradise. He said: “By Allâh, one ought not say what one does not know.” (I will tell you why). In the lifetime of the Prophet ﷺ I had a dream, which I narrated to him. I saw that I was in a garden.” He then described its size and beauty. He added: “In its center there was an iron pillar whose lower end was fixed to the earth and the upper end was in the sky, and at its upper end there was a (ring shaped) handhold. I was told to climb it. I said: “I can’t. Then a servant came to me and lifted my clothes from behind and I climbed till I reached the top (of the pillar). Then I got hold of the hand-hold and I was told to hold it tightly, then I woke up and (the effect of) the handle was in my hand. I narrated all that to the Prophet ﷺ who said: “The Garden is Islâm, the pillar is the pillar of Islâm and the handhold is the Most Trustworthy Hand Hold. So, you will remain as a Muslim till you die.” The narrator added: “The man was ‘Abdullâh Ibn Salâm.

11. Nabi Pak ﷺ telling about the appearance of liars who claim Prophethood:

In another narration by Imâm al-Baihaqî, the Messenger of Allâhﷺ mentioned some of them when he said: “The Hour will not be established until there appears about thirty liars.
