Dream:
Assalam alleikum
One woman there asked me why can’t Kate’s (the wife of Prince William) mother keep her original father’s name. She proceeded to show me a book about her father who was a Naqshibandi Haqqani Mevlevi Sheikh. According to the story it even had pictures of the dergah he was in. I said she can keep her father’s name, after all she’s the daughter so call her” daughter of so & so”. I forgot the name I saw in the book. In the book there was a treasure chest & I took out some necklaces & one looked like one I already had. They all seemed like my taste of jewelry. Then I told them I am going to marry one from his people also. In the book there was also a picture of my father wearing Islamic clothes all dressed in black even his face was covered. Thank you.
Interpretation:
wa `alaykum salam!
audhu billah mina ‘sh-shaytani ‘r-rajeem,
Bismillahi ‘r-Rahmani ‘r-Raheem,
Allahumma salli `ala Sayyidina Muhammadin wa `ala alihi wa sahbihi wa sallim,
يُوسُفُ أَيُّہَا ٱلصِّدِّيقُ أَفۡتِنَا فِى سَبۡعِ بَقَرَٲتٍ۬ سِمَانٍ۬ يَأۡڪُلُهُنَّ سَبۡعٌ عِجَافٌ۬ وَسَبۡعِ سُنۢبُلَـٰتٍ خُضۡرٍ۬ وَأُخَرَ يَابِسَـٰتٍ۬ لَّعَلِّىٓ أَرۡجِعُ إِلَى ٱلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَعۡلَمُونَ
{“O Joseph!” (he said) “O man of truth! Expound to us (the dream) of seven fat kine whom seven lean ones devour, and of seven green ears of corn and (seven) others withered: that I may return to the people, and that they may understand.”} (Surat Yusuf 12:46)
I am asking from my Shaykh ( Allah ta`ala blesses him) help to understand something from your dream.
Allah ta`ala knows best, but it might be that you are asking through your heart to connect with your real being, or identity, in the Divine Presence. You are asking your spiritual ‘lineage’, which has been obscured from you in this life. Therefore, you are asking turn away from dunya, which is represented by your father covered in black, and to reconnect with your spirituality, which is represented by the symbols of royalty. That marriage you are asking is the real baya` to your Murshid, to whom you have been assigned on the ‘Day of Promises’ His sign for you is that your conscience will find him “according to your taste” – like the jewelry in your dream. And Allah ta`ala knows better and best.
