[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said that a man had a dream, so he sent for him and he came. The man began narrating the dream to him, and he had a large stomach. He said, "If this were in someone other than this man, it would have been better for him."  

أحمد:١٨٩٨٤ – حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْرَائِيلَ الْجُشَمِيُّ عَنْ شَيْخٍ لَهُمْ يُقَالُ لَهُ جَعْدَةُ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَأَى لِرَجُلٍ رُؤْيَا قَالَ فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ فَجَاءَ فَجَعَلَ يَقُصُّهَا عَلَيْهِ وَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ عَظِيمَ الْبَطْنِ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ بِأُصْبُعِهِ فِي بَطْنِهِ لَوْ كَانَ هَذَا فِي غَيْرِ هَذَا لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَكَ
