Dream:
I saw in my dream, I am travelling in an ancient city. There are houses on right and left side of the street. Suddenly I heard someone calling that Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. is present nearby. I thought to give a respect to him. So I entered a house on my left side. After entering in the house, there was a room on right. There was an old man standing in the front and three persons were looking at him.
When I saw the face of that old man, I made two observations. His hairs of beard and head were white and he had wrinkles on his face. As I know that Prophet S.A.W does not had signs of old age, I immediately made the conclusion that he is not Prophet Muhammad S.A.W and these people are wrong. And decided to leave that place immediately…then I woke up.
Interpretation:
This dream shows that following the old ways is best, bringing you closer to the Prophet (s) presence.
Be careful of false shaykhs who appear holy but give teachings contrary to true Sufism. And Allah knows best.
