Is the Devil's inability to impersonate Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) limited to his noble person only, or does it also include his inability to impersonate things attributed to him (such as his clothes, his grave, his mosque) in their real forms and appearances? And is seeing these things with their real attributes in a dream a truthful vision, or could it be from self-talk or devilish dreams, especially if it is frightening or saddening?
