The island, and I was too shy to say it to his face, isn't the trembling in a dream, from the meaning of "trembling" that came in His saying: "And the hearts are trembling in the chests" [Al-Ahzab: 11], meaning with hypocritical rumors.

As for the skill of swimming in a dream, it is skill in the science of seditions and the hadiths of seditions, which were symbolized by the fierce, high waves.

And the elevation of the island above the waves means the elevation of its status and the departure of seditions from it.

Then, after that, there was a natural scientific discussion between him and Abu Abdullah about Al-Khidr.

Is Al-Khidr a prophet or a righteous man? But the man exploited the lack of a regular residence with Abu Abdullah, in addition to his interpretation of that vision and his talk about the black banners and other details. This person was among those who attended the reading session with Abu Abdullah and heard what he heard in that session. So he exploited all of that and began to spread that he claims the Mahdiya! He also spread that he presented this to some scholars, including Rabee Al-Madkhali, and that Al-Madkhali replied to him by saying: Beware of this person, for he is an impostor, a liar, and he will spread news and make claims.

This is what he attributed to Rabee Al-Madkhali, and Allah knows the truth.

So the rumor flew east and west until it reached the vicinity of Abu Abdullah, so he was forced to move away from the neighborhood he was in to another neighborhood, for fear of the intelligence services knowing about it.

Verification from Abdul Qadir: Then Abu Abdullah traveled from Mecca to Yemen, and his brother Saleh - may Allah have mercy on him - joined him, and another from Tihama named Samer Al-Mashra'i. They met in Yemen and agreed to go to visit Abdul Qadir, to look at him and his forehead and verify his condition.

They resolved to take turns reading Surat Al-Kahf in his presence, so that one of them would read it and the other two would engage him in conversation.

The three went to Abdul Qadir and sat with him. This is part of what transpired between them. Abu Abdullah asked him about the issues that arose between Abdul Qadir and Ali Hamza.

Abdul Qadir began to recount what happened, until he said that Ali Hamza said to him: "O stranger, be polite," and he gestured to him with that gesture.

Abdul Qadir said to him: "If you point to the Lord of the Worlds, do not point like that. Point like this," and he pointed to himself with his thumb and index finger extended forward and the rest of his fingers clenched.

"Good, they do not give it to them, so they fight and are victorious, so they are given what they asked for, and they do not accept it, until they hand it over to a man from my household, and he will fill it with justice, as it was filled with injustice. Whoever among you witnesses that, let him go to them, even if crawling on snow." (Narrated by Ibn Majah)
