muslim:2271Naṣr b. ʿAlī al-Jahḍamī from my father > Ṣakhr b. Jūwayriyah > Nāfiʿ > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUmar

I saw in a dream that I was using miswak and two persons contended to get it from me, one being older than the other one. I gave the miswak to the younger one. It was said to me to give that to the older one and I gave it to the older one.  

مسلم:٢٢٧١وَحَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا صَخْرُ بْنُ جُوَيْرِيَةَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَهُ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَرَانِي فِي الْمَنَامِ أَتَسَوَّكُ بِسِوَاكٍ فَجَذَبَنِي رَجُلاَنِ أَحَدُهُمَا أَكْبَرُ مِنَ الآخَرِ فَنَاوَلْتُ السِّوَاكَ الأَصْغَرَ مِنْهُمَا فَقِيلَ لِي كَبِّرْ فَدَفَعْتُهُ إِلَى الأَكْبَرِ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ أَرَانِي أَتَسَوَّكُ بِسِوَاكٍ فَجَاءَنِي رَجُلاَنِ أَحَدُهُمَا أَكْبَرُ مِنَ الآخَرِ فَنَاوَلْتُ السِّوَاكَ الأَصْغَرَ مِنْهُمَا فَقِيلَ لِي كَبِّرْ فَدَفَعْتُهُ إِلَى الأَكْبَرِ مِنْهُمَا قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ اخْتَصَرَهُ نُعَيْمٌ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ أُسَامَةَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ  

muslim:3003Naṣr b. ʿAlī al-Jahḍamī from my father > Ṣakhr / Ibn Jūwayriyah > Nāfiʿ > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUmar

It was shown in a vision that I was rinsing my mouth with miswak and two persons began to contend with one another for getting that miswak. One was older than the other. I gave the miswak to the younger one amongst them, but it was said to me: (Let it be given) to the older one. So I gave it to the older one.

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet, ﷺ , he said: "I intended to use the siwak (tooth stick), then two men came to me, one of them older than the other. I handed the smaller siwak to one of them. I was then told to give it to the older one, so I gave it to him."
