‘Abu Qatadah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “Dreams are from Allah and Hulum are from Shaitan. So when one of you sees something that bothers him, then let him spit on his left three times, and let him seek refuge in Allah from its evil. Then it will not harm him.”
Jami` at-Tirmidhi, Book 34, Hadith 2446
