Hadith correction in dream

Hazrat Sheikh Raziuddin Hasan Ibn Hasan Ja’ani (rahmatullahi alaihe) used to live in Chogana. He migrated to Bodayun during the time of Kutubuddin Aibak or at the beginning of the reign of Shamsuddin Iltutmish. The book “Mashararekul Anwar” was the fruits of the life-long endeavour of Sheikh Raziuddin (rahmatullahi alaihe).

Hazrat Nizamuddin Aulia (rahmatullahi alaihe) narrates that when Hazrat Sheikh Raziuddin (rahmatullahi alaihe) faced difficult questions regarding a particular Hadith, he would dream the Beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) and would obtain the necessary corrections to the Hadith in question.

Hazrat Baba Fariduddin Ganjeskar (rahmatullahi alaihe) narrates that all Hadith collected in Mashararekul Anwar are authentic.

In Mashararekul Anwar, an astounding 2246 Hadith have been corrected by the blessed words of the Beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam). Hazrat Sheikh Raziuddin (rahmatullahi alaihe) narrates that whenever questions arose regarding the authenticity of a particular Hadith around which people argued, he would dream the Beloved Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) on the same night. In the dream, Hazrat Sheikh Raziuddin (rahmatullahi alaihe) would present the particular Hadith before the august court of the Beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam). The Beloved Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) would immediately correct the Hadith in question.
