Fatwa #436912 December 2001United Kingdom

If we see a religious dream, does it mean its a true dream? Do only friends of Allah see religious dreams? I had the following dream;

Question

There was a gathering of mostly males, and a few females, we were all sitting doing dhikr of Allah loudly, and waiting for a special sheikh to come, when he arrived we all increased our dhikr, increased in eman, and I was experiencing something I had never experienced before, but then more women joined the gathering, and they started to make lots of noise, so the men got up and left, and I was left. Does this dream signify anything?

Answer

Dreams are of different types.
1. Pious
2. Reflection of the mind
3. Shaitaani
Pious and religious dreams are from Allah and are true. The dream referred
to in the details is a pious one. It indicates zikr invoking the mercy of
Allah which decreases upon any interruption.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
