Question:
Assalamu alaykum,
A friend of mine just broke up from her non-Muslim boyfriend (who recently made shahadah and whom she wanted to marry) after finding out that he was cheating on her. She is very heartbroken, but still hopeful that he will come back to her and accept to marry her. She made istikhara and saw the following dream:
I walked into a room where there was my sister and a young child possibly 3 years of age and an unknown third person. When I asked my sister what happened to the child, she said that she died based on an allergic reaction to a type of potato that she ate. When I asked my sister if her parents knew that she died and if the Saudi government knew that she died (because the baby was a Saudi), my sister said, everybody knows the girl has died. Then I sat on the bed next to the girl, staring at the dead child, and all of a sudden her eyes open and she stares at me and starts to cough. Then something was said twice, “Inna Allaha yahyee izhaama wa hiya rameem (Surely, Allah is able to revive bones after disintegration).”
If you can please interpret this for her, as she is going through a very difficult time. JazakAllahu khayr.
Answer:
Alaykum salam,
Mawlana Shaykh Hisham is praying for you and your friend. The dead child in the dream represents her innocence and the potato represents the person who betrayed her as well as her country which in the dream represents Islam. However, the resuscitation shows that she can move on and recover her strength without despairing in the gifts of Allah as He
will give her better than what she lost in sha Allah.
