Incident in Fazaail-e-Durood of woman being cured through reciting durood

Question

Someone told me to inquire about the incident mentioned in Fazail-e-Durood (story#46) and also ask for its detailed explanation.

Can anyone see Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) in a wakeful state?

Is it okay to put your hand on a deceased woman's stomach? If not, then did it happen in reality, or was it a spiritual state or was it a dream?

Are there any other such incidents where Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) met someone in a wakeful state and solved their problem? Is this incident correct from the point of view of authenticity and can it be narrated to others during taleem hadith session in the mosque?

Answer

It is possible.

Since this occurred after Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) left the world and after the woman left the world, it will be considered as a spiritual blessing she received from Allah Ta'ala. This vision is similar to a dream. The laws of Shari’ah do not apply to a dream. Hence, these questions will not arise that how can a male touch the stomach of a non mahram female etc.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
