Question:
Assalam w allaykum shaykh,
I had a dream that I was swimming in the sea to my fatherland Lebanon (where some bad things happened to me in the summer, 2 years ago ). And a shark was following me and sometimes jumped out of the water to bite me but he couldn’t.
When I arrived there, my niece and my husband were sitting in a room and as I was taking a breath (because I was tired from swimming all the way) my husband said that Allah (SWT) is picking out someone special (don’t know why). I really wanted to be that special person and then my husband said to me “but not you, because you don’t study”
What does this dream means?
Jazakallah
Answer:
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim
Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm:
Walaikum assalam,
The sea has many meanings, one of the positive meanings is that a person who sees the sea in her dream will reach her goals. Another meaning for the sea is that it represents power and authority. Since you got out of the sea unharmed, it means that any issues you have with the authorities will not harm you inchaAllah.
Allah knows best.
