In the footsteps of the Prophet ﷺ

Reference: Siyar A’laam an-Nubalaa v12 p391

Muhammad ibn Ismaa’eel al-Bukhaaree رحمه الله said I heard an-Najm ibn al-Fudhayl رحمه الله say:

[In a dream] I saw the Prophet ﷺ [and it was] as if he was walking, and Muhammad ibn Ismaa’eel [al-Bukhaaree] رحمه الله was walking behind him.

[So] every time the Prophet ﷺ raised his foot [to proceed], Muhammad ibn Ismaa’eel [al-Bukhaaree] رحمه الله placed his foot in the [same] place from where the Prophet ﷺ had [just] raised his foot.
