Dream:
Salam alaykum Mowlana,
Thank you for your time and your blessings.
My mom had a dream almost a month ago, she wants to know the interpretation.
In her dream she is at a place where she is waiting for Mowlana. She then notices that there are men also waiting. She feels that those men don’t have good intentions and so she leaves the place. She goes to get her luggage to leave. In her luggage there are lots of shoes. Then someone tells her that she can get her luggage later and that she should leave right away. And so when she is leaving the place she sees Mowlana and that he is about to fall down and quickly she runs over to help him. Then, she feels that she is elsewhere. Everyone is looking up to the sky to observe something because they have been told by Mowlana that if they see something they are the “special” ones . At that instance she sees a light appear and no one is believing her.
Thank you for you time.
Interpretation:
wa `alaykum salam,
The men with bad intentions are the lower self and its various negative characteristics, seeking to prevent her from going on the right path. The baggage with shoes is love of dunya. She gave these up and was therefore rewarded by being taken to a higher level, where people have no concern for either, and there Mawlana is the Sultan. Running to help him means he is supporting her to have true faith, and therefore she is gifted according to the hadith:
“My servant does not cease to approach Me through voluntary worship until I will love him. When I love him, I will become the ears with which he hears, the eyes with which he sees, the hand with which he acts and the tongue with which he speaks.”
Insha-Allah she will be granted that station by our mashaykh and Allah knows best.
