The answer

Al-Tabarani and Al-Bayhaqi narrated a very weak hadith from Ibn Zumal Al-Juhani that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to ask after the Fajr prayer: "Did anyone see anything?" Ibn Zumal said: "Me, O Messenger of Allah." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Good you shall meet, and evil you shall avert, and good for us and evil for our enemies, and praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. Narrate your vision."
