Dream:
as-slamu alaykum ya Sayyidi,
I cannot thank u enough for your love and guidance.
Many years ago I saw a dream where I saw myself floating high up in the air looking down on the ground, where on a moonlit, bright and beautiful night. I saw a man riding a lion. That very moment, while dreaming, it came in my heart that this is Rasool Allah(s). it was a beautiful dream. Is it true that it was Rasool Allah(s) whom I saw in my dream? What would this dream signify?
may Allah’s blessings be upon u and ur family
Interpretation:
wa `alaykum salam,
Since what came to your heart was that you saw Sayyidina Rasulullah (s) then that is correct, alhamdulillah. The lion is Sayyidina `Ali’s (r) spiritual form, for his title is Asadullah al-Ghalib, The Victorious Lion of Allah, and he attained his station in part by his service to the Prophet (s) and in part a grant from Allah swt, and Allah knows best. Mabruk, for our shuykh teach that seeing the Prophet (s) means safety in seven dire situation in dunya and seven in akhira, safety and entrance into Paradise, bi idhnillah. Insha-Allah you would one day see him in a waking state with the power that Sayyidina `Ali (r) was dressing to you to conquer the ego, love of dunya, lustful desire, and Shaytan.
