Question:
My brother died a few months ago; he was in his 20s & very sick; ever since I’ve been thinking about him constantly, but I never dreamed him. Yesterday, during Maghrib salaat I made a dua talking to Allah about my problems, one of which was how much I missed my brother. Then last night I dreamt my of brother, healthier, jovial, laughing and hugging my parents and I. He didn’t talk much, because he was busy laughing and smiling. He just as he appeared in my dream, he left. I woke up it was 4:30 am, Fajr was at 5:44 am. Is this a true dream or a shaitan dream? Was it Allah’s way of showing me how happy and okay my brother is? I took care of my brother all my life, he was mentally handicapped and had cancer, when he passed, I was still worried.
Answer:
It is a true dream which you saw in the best of hours. In sha Allah your brother left this life clean and pure and he is making istighfar for you and entire family as Allah Most High gives His servants high levels through the sicknesses they endured.
