Worried about not seeing the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, in dreams

Question

If one keeps on seeing Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, in dreams after certain intervals of time, then at once he stops coming to him/her. Does this show lack of faith on his/her part? How can one revive the lost blessing? Because one can feel the loss!! Is there any specific Du'a or Darood?

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.

Whoever has seen the Prophet  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) in a dream and his descriptions were according to those mentioned in authentic narrations, then he has truly seen him because the devil cannot take his image as the Prophet  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) informed us. Seeing the Prophet  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) in a dream is not evidence for the strength of his faith, and not seeing him in a dream is not a defamation for one’s faith, and this cannot be used as evidence that his faith is weak or that he does not have faith.

Allaah Knows best.
