Question:
Asalamualaikum to all eshaykh alhamdulilah for this website inshallah Allah blesses you all and your families. I had a dream after fajr time. I went to bed in wudu that a very nasty looking man sent his dog to attack me. Usually I always defend myself in dreams but this time the ugly hairless red eyed dog bit me in my left rib and I remember the pain being unbelieably realistic. Why couldn’t I defend myself? Why couldn’t I recite a prayer? Please help me and guide me because I am nothing more than a low servant.
Answer:
audhu billah mina ‘sh-shaytani ‘r-rajeem,
Bismillahi ‘r-Rahmani ‘r-Raheem,
wa `alaykum salam,
This attack shows the need for a step up in your “security system” to keep up with your spiritual progress. Seek the shelter of Allah’s friends, awliyaullah.
