Hazrat Abdur Rahmaan bin Samurah (Radi Allahu Anhu) reports: On one occasion, Rasulullah (SallAllahu alaihi wa Sallam) came to us and said, “Last night, I saw something extraordinary in a dream. I saw a man from my Ummah who was crossing the pul-siraat (the bridge over Jahannum). At times, he was crawling, at other times he was dragging himself on his behind, and sometimes, he was hanging onto the siraat (about to fall into Jahannum). Suddenly, his Durood that he would recite upon me in the world came to him. It then held his hand, helped him to stand up on the siraat and assisted him to cross over it.”
