Question:
Mothers Dream: Mum & me are about to go on holiday. We hear a voice tell us to visit a certain place which is beautiful like Jannah. Me & Mum wait at the bus stop for a bus to take us there. A friend of mine & other unknown girls wait behind us, they hesitate about visiting this place saying they’ll go later/next time. I say no, I’m going now & get into the bus with mum. A muslim couple is already in the bus. My friend then also joins us. When we arrive at the destination, it is exceptionally beautiful. Its like an enormous garden filled with vivid green grass. There are huge mountains there which are also covered in green grass and a sparkling river running through the landscape.
A man tells my mum there is still a lot left to see but for that we would need to get into a boat to take us further. My mum says for today seeing this much is enough, but we will return to see the rest next time. Please interpret, Jazak – Allah Khair.
Answer:
You mother is seeing the Reality of attending the Circles of Dhikr. Its full reality will only be known on Judgment Day though as the man hinted, and Allah knows best.
