أحمد:٢٥٢٠٢حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مُبَارَكٍ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ وَيُونُسَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

أَوَّلُ مَا بُدِئَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنَ الْوَحْيِ الرُّؤْيَا الصَّادِقَةُ أَوْ قَالَ الرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ شَكَّ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ قَالَتْ وَكَانَ لَا يَرَى رُؤْيَا إِلَّا جَاءَتْ مِثْلَ فَلَقِ الصُّبْحِ
