Hello. I am interested to know, has anyone exept our Prophet Muhammad, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, been touched in a dream by Allaah? Is that even possible? Did anyone dream of Allaah in any form that Allaah touches him in a dream? Is that possible? Thank you.

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

Perhaps you are referring to the hadeeth that reads, “My Lord came to me in the most beautiful image and said, ‘O Muhammad.’ I said, ‘Here I am at Your service, my Lord.’ He said, ‘What are the angels disputing about…’ I said, ‘My Lord, I do not know.’ So He put His Hand between my shoulders…”

You are asking whether what is mentioned in the hadeeth happened to Prophets besides our Prophet Muhammad . The answer is that, after investigation, we have not come across any text that indicates this. Nonetheless, seeing Allah in a dream may happen to some righteous people; there is nothing that prevents this Islamically. An-Nawawi quoted Al-Qaadhi Iyaadh, who said, “The scholars agreed that it is permissible to see Allah in a dream, and that this is valid…” [Sharh Muslim]

Allah knows best.
