[Machine] As if he had stolen something from a purse without pointing to anything from paradise except that it flew to him. So I narrated it to Hafsa and Hafsa narrated it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who said, "Indeed, Abdullah is a righteous man."  

الكبرى للنسائي:٨٢٣١أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي شُعَيْبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الْحَارِثُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّهُ §رَأَى

كَأَنَّ بِيَدِهِ سَرَقَةً مِنْ إِسْتَبْرَقٍ لَا يُشِيرُ بِهَا إِلَى شَيْءٍ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا طَارَتْ إِلَيْهِ فَقَصَصْتُهَا عَلَى حَفْصَةَ فَقَصَّتْهَا حَفْصَةُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ رَجُلٌ صَالِحٌ»

I saw in a dream a piece of silken cloth in my hand, and in whatever direction in Paradise I waved it, it flew, carrying me there. I narrated this (dream) to (my sister) Hafsa and she told it to the Prophet ﷺ who said, (to Hafsa), "Indeed, your brother is a righteous man," or, "Indeed, ʿAbdullah is a righteous man."

I saw in a state of sleep as if I have in my hand a piece of silk cloth and there is no place in the Paradise where I intend to reach but that piece of cloth does not fly towards it. I made a mention of it to Hafsa (the sister of Ibn 'Umar) and Hafsa made a mention of it to Allah's Apostle ﷺ, whereupon Allah's Apostle ﷺ said: I find 'Abdullah b 'Umar a pious person.

"I had a dream in which I saw as if there was a piece of silk in my hand, and I would not gesture to any place in Paradise except that it would fly with me, (taking me) to it.
