A bowl of milk

An attendant of the Rouza of the Beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) narrates that one day an individual named Kashem Sharif came to him. The individual was smiling. The attendant asked the individual the reasons for his smile.

The individual stated that he was hungry and did not have anything to eat. For this reason, the individual entreated at the august court of the Beloved Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) and fell asleep afterwards.

The individual was blessed with the vision of the Beloved Prophet of Allah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) in a dream. In the dream, the individual saw that the Beloved Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) had arrived. The Beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) gave the individual a bowl of milk. In the dream, the individual drank the bowl of milk to his contentment.

Upon awakening, the individual found colour of milk in his saliva. His stomach also felt full.

The attendant narrates that the individual spit in his own hand in front of the attendant. The saliva contained traces of milk.
