Dreams

           Sometimes man sees many things in his sleep which he cannot see in his waking state. In common parlance this is called a dream. In the summary of the commentaries, it is said that in a dream, the soul leaves the body and travels to the upper world and the lower world. What it cannot see in waking, it sees. It should be called the spiritual sense, the physical sense can only dominate the present and the spiritual sense perceives both the present and the absent.

              Sometimes funny and sometimes horrible pictures come to mind and with awakening this whole story disappears instantly. In many places in the Quran, dreams have been mentioned in different ways and in the hadiths, the Holy Prophet (saw) has given some details about it, which shows that the existence of dreams is true. The dream of people other than the Holy Prophets, although not a legitimate argument, is due to the blessings of Divinity and the blessings of Prophethood. It is narrated from Anas that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: A good dream is one of the forty-six parts of Prophethood. What is meant by this is knowledge of prophethood, that is, good behavior is one of the components and parts of the knowledge of prophecy. (Sahih Bukhari and Muslim) In this hadith, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has described the virtues and virtues of a good dream and has described it as a reflection of Prophethood.

There are three types of dreams:

               The first type is the idea of ​​the self, that is, the things that a person is engaged in throughout the day and the things that are dominating his heart and mind are seen in the form of dreams at night.

                The second type is the nightmare, which is actually a reflection of demonic influences. Satan has been the enemy of mankind since time immemorial and just as he tries to mislead and disturb man in the waking world, so he does not allow man to rest even in the state of sleep.

                The third type of dream is that which is called glad tidings by Allah that Allah gives glad tidings in the dream to whomever He wills of His servants and in the mirror of his heart as gestures and signs he makes difficult the things that are to come. It is about to take place or it is related to the spiritual and emotional maturity and contentment of the believer. It is reliable and interpretable and its virtue and definition is mentioned in the hadith. (Modern Demonstration)

                A good dream is good tidings and good news from Allah that the servant may be happy and that dream may be the cause of his good behavior and hope in Allah Almighty and may increase the gratitude of God and bad dream may be a reflection of evil effects. That is, a person is naturally disturbed and saddened by a bad dream, which makes the devil very happy. Therefore, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) instructed that whoever has a bad and unpleasant dream, he should give up three times to the left. And seek refuge in Allah from the devil three times and change the crotch on which he was smiling while dreaming (Mushkoot: 1).

                According to another hadith, when a person has such a dream, he should not pay attention to it and should not tell it to any enemy or friend. Will be safe The reason for not telling such a dream in front of an enemy or a friend is that when the listener misinterprets the dream in view of its apparent state, he will have to fall into erroneous delusion because of it. Different kinds of fears, whispers and different delusions and thoughts will arise in the heart and mind which will disturb the person and will affect his peace and tranquility in any way. At the same time it is possible that Let it happen. In the same way, this matter and this thing do not remain fixed in a single place.

                Therefore, it has been said that the matter of a dream is also such that unless it is revealed to someone and it is kept hidden in one's heart. It does not have any validity till the time nor does it happen but when it is stated in front of someone and as soon as it is interpreted it happens according to that interpretation. Therefore, such a dream should not be mentioned in front of anyone. In a good dream, although the mind does not move towards unpleasant things, it should not be explained to any ignorant, hostile or incompetent person, because misinterpretation can change the direction of the dream. of the There is nothing wrong with telling expert and wise friends.
