Sahih Muslim: Book 42, Hadith 16

Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: The vision of a Muslim which he sees or which is shown to him, and in the hadith transmitted on the authority of Ibn Mushir (the words are): “The pious dream is the forty-sixth part of Prophecy.”

وَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ الْخَلِيلِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا
ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ
اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ رُؤْيَا الْمُسْلِمِ يَرَاهَا أَوْ تُرَى لَهُ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ وَفِي حَدِيثِ ابْنِ مُسْهِرٍ ‏”‏
الرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ جُزْءٌ مِنْ سِتَّةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنَ النُّبُوَّةِ ‏”‏ ‏.‏

The above hadith is from the Sahih Muslim collection of hadiths. Compiled by the respected scholar Muslim ibn al-Ḥajjāj in the 9th century, specifically around 875, Sahih Muslim is a cornerstone of Islamic literature. It is one of the six primary books of hadith, the Kutub al-Sittah, which are essential for Sunni Islamic doctrine and law. This particular collection is often placed second only to Sahih al-Bukhari in terms of its authenticity and authority. The entire work is systematically divided into 56 books, each focusing on different aspects of life and faith. Within these books, readers will find a total of roughly 7,459 carefully verified narrations from the Prophet Muhammad.
