Q: I received the following regarding a dream requesting interpretation. Humble request if mufti saheb can please advise the meaning of this dream. Alhamdulillah Allah has honoured us with the privilege of visiting all the 3 harams. And for that I am extremely grateful.We are back home just over a week now. However I am disturbed by a dream that I seen on our last night of our safr in Madina shareef. I am hoping that Mufti saab can give me the interpretation of it.
While in Madina shareef I dreamt that we were back home. My husband and I returned to our house, and while my husband was opening the house I went further into the drive way and I was taking some clothing from the line and transferring it onto a clothes drier. All of a sudden from the dark backyard this figure in the form of a little girl emerged. She was wearing a black cloak and scarf and had red eyes. I became afraid and in my dream I sensed evil in her. Just then my husband came to where I was and pointing to the girl I asked him "why is this happening?"(in the dream it felt like the same scenario of the sudden appearance of the girl had happened the night before). My husband was sobbing. This made me more afraid. We then saw a big group of men and ladies who came and stood at the entry gate. Ladies were dressed in black cloaks, red burkas and they were wearing niqaab. (It appeared to me in my dream that they were the Indian ladies we see in the Haram in Makkah and Madina shareef.) The ladies were in front of the men. We walked towards them hoping that we can be saved from the evil of the girl through them. (the girl did not follow) When we got to them I asked them "is the Nabi of Allah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) here?" They nodded and motioned that he is coming through the crowd. I immediately felt safe and relieved. At this point I awoke.
A: There is no need to be worried. Hold on firmly to the Sunnah and refrain from areas of doubt and sin, Allah Ta'ala's divine help and proximity will be with you. Make it a habit of reciting the three Quls (Surah Ikhlaas, Surah Falaq and Surah Naas) and Aayatul Kursi after performing your five daily Salaah and before retiring to bed. Allah Ta'ala will save you from all harm.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
