Question:
I had a dream in the room with Shaykh Hisham and i had a dream that was not clear but i was given the number 5 and the letter mim and at the end Shaykh Hisham said i was a wali and he said when i became a wali don’t tell people.
Answer:
As-Salāmu `Alaykum wa rahmatu l-lāhi wa barakātuh
The room represents your heart.
The number 5 represents the 5 Qutub
The mim represents the Presence of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
The dream means that if you take the hand of Mawlana Shaykh Hisham and follow his guidance and teaching, he will bring you the Presence of the highest Awliya’ullah then to the Presence of Prophet ﷺ
Not to tell people when you become a wali, means that you should stay humble at all time and know that anything you will receive spiritually is not because of your cleverness but because of the spiritual power of your Shaykh !
