Dreaming that my deceased father came to visit us in our family business wearing white

Q: (My Murhoom father passed away on Friday 27th July 2012, in Ramadhaaan) 2 nights later i dreamt he came to visit us at work (family business) he was dressed in white and was very excited to visit us. I bumped into him and asked him Daddy what are you doing here, he said he came to visit us,i told him i just want to ask you just 1 question, to which he replied i can ask him 5 questions only. The first question was Daddy does Jannah really exist to which he smiled and said yes, 2nd question was are you in Jannah, to which he smiled and said yes. Third question was are you angry with me to which he replied no, fourth question was do you need anything to eat, which he said no, the 5th question i don not remember. He then asked where is my husband (used to call him Janam) and as Dad turned around to look for him, my husband extended his hand and said "Farouk" what are you doign here and again Dad said i came to visit. Husband said ok i just want to ask you 1 question to which dad replied you can ask me 3. He asked dad does Jahanam really exist and dad said sternly yes, he asked if shaytaan existed and he said yes and told my husband shaytaan is living underground and explained to him ahow shaytaan comes to trouble, 3rd question was do you have any unfinished work here and dad said no. He then abruptly walked away and went into my brothers office, he quickly hugged my elder sister who was in the office and was smiling and playing with her and was telling my brohter not to be so involved in his work and to live life.

In the dream my baby woke up and i turned to see her in that time daddy walked passed the kitchen (where mum and other sister were cooking) and went straight to eldest brothers office where it became dark and gloomy and daddy looked upset. 

The dream ended like that. Am not sure what it all means. Before daddy passed away (the wednesday) he said he forgives and forgets about anyone or anything that hurt or upset him and that he wants to move on. We were supposed to take him to Durban that friday he passed away as my eldest brother had been fighting with my father and told him to pack his stuff and leave. Daddy was very hurt and said he will go to durban but he wont make it. we never understood he wont make it meaning he will leave this world. My other brother was supposed to fetch him after 4 weeks to live with him after he had found a house to keep my father and move all his stuff. Till today there is alot of fighting going on and it very heart breaking. 

A: Alhamdulillah, the deceased is in a good condition in the hereafter, However, he is concerned about the Deeni condition of his family.
