The answer

Whoever sees the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, in a dream, in his known form, has truly seen him, for Satan cannot impersonate him. As for the story of opening the Mus'haf (Qur'an), searching for a hair, putting it in water, and drinking it, these are signs of falsehood and inventions of charlatans and sorcerers, and have no basis in Islamic law. The cure for affliction is through repentance and returning to Allah, taking permissible precautions such as quarantine and seeking medical treatment, and frequently engaging in seeking forgiveness (Istighfar), glorifying Allah (Tasbih), and reciting the supplication of Dhul-Nun (Prophet Jonah).
