Fatwa #159223 November 2000Pakistan

As-salamualaikum Sir I want to know about the dreams we see.I know dreams are from Allah.Can you tell us how to differentiate which dream is from Allah and which one from Shaitan.

Answer

Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu

In brief, dreams are of three types, i) Pious dreams, ii) Shaytaani dreams,
and, iii) Reflections of the mind

Pious dreams are from Allah and Shaytaani dreams are from the Shaytaan. If
one is unable to determine whether the dream is good or bad he should refer
to an expert who understand the sciences of interpretations of dreams.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
