Dream: Fighting Dajjal

Posted on February 13, 2012 by Imam Yassir Chadly

Dream:

Asalaam alaiykum. I had a dream that I was in the masjid making Maghrib, when the sun set and then immediately began to rise again in the west. That is when some people who was with the Dajjals army tried to come into the masjid, but me and some other Muslims killed him in the street. Everywhere that I looked even in the mcdonalds at the mall I seen pictures of the Dajjal, even though I didn’t see his face because it was a black image I knew it was him because of the words Dajjal over the image. What is the meaning of my dream?

Interpretation:

Bismillah ir rahman ir rahheem:

wa `alaykum salam,
This is the signs of the last days, and shaytan and his agents are clear to you more than before. After Maghreb prayers don’t go out for any reason, especially to shaytans places .

And Allah knows best.

Dream: Seenig Rasool-Allah (saws)

Posted on February 13, 2012 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Dream:

Asalamu Aleikum,

In my dream I didn’t remember that they had taken veil from this world

I saw that there was a (live or recorded) transmission and (I think) I saw Hazrat Abu Bakr Radi-Allahu-Anhu behind them on one corner I saw Rasool-Allah Sallal-laahu-Alayhi-Wasallam sitting..they had covered their blessed-face with an blanket/kambal – I assumed that it was because they didn’t wanted to show their blessed-face to everyone (on tv) – I remember about seeing their blessed-face in my dreams and I was thinking if they in real also looked like how I saw them in dreams – I also remember crying and asking Allah to give them a long life (partly for selfish reasons so that when I get back to “right-track” that they will be there for me) and then I remember nr-63 and it hit me that they had already taken veil from this world..

JazakAllahu Khairan

Interpretation:

Alaykum Salam,

Dream alludes to Prophet’s (upon him blessings and peace) inheritor in
our time, and the fact that no one knows his station and rank which are
veiled from all but Allah, and the closest to approach that knowledge is
his siddiq, and Allah knows best.

Work in a Banking Institution?

Posted on February 12, 2012 by Shaykh Senad Agic

Question:

Assalam’alykum

Dear Brother,

I would like to know if it is permissible to work in a non-Islamic bank?
I actually work for an offshore company which specializes in Trust Services.

However the department is a subsidiary of a big international bank.

Thanks

Answer:

wa `alaykum salam,

According to the scholars of Shariah it is not permissible for a Muslim to work even as a guard or driver for banks that in any way deal with interest. If it is the only job available as needed source of income then it is temporarily permissible, but you should look for another job as soon as possible.

Prayer Request: For Istikhara

Posted on February 12, 2012 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Request:

Assalamu alaikum.
I’m in a relation with someone for long time. But my boyfriend behaves very rudely with me and doesn’t care for me. I’m losing hope and interest on him. I know a man who is very pious and religious and i think he will make a very good husband. Sometimes i think that it would be nice if i could marry him. I really want to get married and settle down with a good pious life partner. Can you please do ishtikhara for me and the other man(not my boyfriend) and tell me if that would be a good choice. But there is another problem, his elder brother hasn’t yet married, so i think that he might not be interested in marriage right now. Also i know that he has no interest in me as he knows that i m already in relationship with someone.

Response:

Alaykum as-Salam,
The second man is better for marriage. Furthermore, there is no blessing in haram relationships and it is no surprise that they lead to disappointment.

Dream: Muslim’s big day

Posted on February 12, 2012 by Imam Yassir Chadly

Dream:

I had this dream on Christmas day. My cousins and i wearing torn and old cloth, walking in a line, carrying flat-bread from one end of a straight, narrow street, with obstacles and creatures in the way. When i stop to give way to the obstacles, they step aside and give me way. I deliver the bread and go back to the other end of the street to get more bread. But at he end of the dream i heard “Muslims big day”.

Interpretation:

Bismillah ir rahman ir rahheem:

Allah is giving you good tidings. Whatever you are doing is good. Allah will remove all obstacles because of your sadaka. Always give sadaka and obstacles will be removed.

And Allah knows best.

Living in Polygamy, Jealousy

Posted on February 12, 2012 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Question:

Asalamualaikum warehmatullah,

I have a question regarding my marriage. My husband of _ years who I knew almost _ years before marriage took another wife from another country in a very clever way by sending me and the children to my parents house almost 2 years back. After his second marriage he did not leave me and I too continued the marriage because of kids. His other wife says she is even scared of an insect gaining all the sympathy from her husband. The day my hubby stays with me she says she cant sleep through the night and waits for the whole night to finish till it is dawn. I guess I still love him but at the same time the hurt never goes. My parents don’t know anything about my hubby’s second marriage. Please suggest any dua that would be beneficial in my situation.

Answer:

Alaykum as-Salam,

Bear with patience as there is big reward for you and your first place is assured here and hereafter in sha Allah, and no one is replacing you. Keep your affection for him and continue unaffected, Allah will support in sha Allah. Recite daily x100 ya Halim, ya Wadud. Make Salawat on Prophet and his Family 300x daily.
