True dreams are those which come true in real life as they were seen in the dream.Ģ- Mixed up false dreams, which warn of something. They may also happen to other people, but this is very rare, such as the dream of the kafir king which was interpreted for him by Yusuf (peace be upon him). (See Madaarij al-Saalikeen, 1/50-52) Types of dreams according to Ibn Hajarġ- True dreams: These are the dreams of the prophets and of the righteous people who follow them. It is also the time when the devils are quiet, unlike the time of darkness just after sunset, when the devils and devilish souls spread out. If he does all this, then his dreams can hardly be untrue.ĩ- The most truthful of dreams are those that are seen at the time of suhoor, for this is the time when Allaah descends and when mercy and forgiveness are close. What you should do to have true dreamsĨ- Whoever wants to have true dreams should strive to speak honestly, eat halal food, adhere to the commandments of shari’ah, avoid that which Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) have forbidden, sleep in a state of complete purity facing the Qiblah, and remember Allah until he feels his eyelids drooping. This is a very serious matter indeed, for many of the innovators among the Sufis and others have gone astray because of this. If they are in accordance with the Quran and Sunnah, all well and good otherwise, they should not be acted upon. This is why Ibrahim set out to fulfill the command of Allah to sacrifice his son Isma’il when he saw that in a dream may peace be upon them both.ħ- The dreams of people other than the prophets are to be examined in the light of the clear Wahy. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Dreams are of three types: a dream from Allah, a dream which causes distress and which comes from the Shaytan, and a dream which comes from what a person thinks about when he is awake, and he sees it when he is asleep.” (al-Bukhari, 6499 Muslim, 4200) Dreams of the ProphetsĦ- The dreams of the Prophets are wahy (revelation) for they are protected from the Shaytan. Types of dreams in Islamĥ- Dreams are of three types : Rahmani (those that come from Allah), nafsani (psychological, they come from within a person) and shaytani (those that come from the Shaytan). This did not happen during their time because they did not need them, due to their strong faith, but the people who came after them needed them (the miracles) because their faith was weak. The same may be said of the miracles which appeared after the time of the Sahabah. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “That will be because the prophethood and its effects will be so far away in time, so the believers will be given some compensation in the form of dreams which will bring them some good news or will help them to be patient and steadfast in their faith.” (al-Bukhari, 6499 Muslim, 4200) (Muslim, 4200)Ĥ- Towards the end of time, hardly any dreams will be untrue. Those who have the most truthful dreams are those who are the most truthful in speech. (Al-Bukhari, 3 Muslim, 231)ģ- The truthfulness of the dream is related to the sincerity of the dreamer. Significance of dreams in Islamġ- True dreams are a part of prophethood, as it was reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “True dreams are one of the forty-six parts of prophethood.” (al-Bukhari, 6472 Muslim, 4201)Ģ- Dreams marked the onset of Revelation.
