Dream: Conversation with Allah(SBUH)

Posted on February 11, 2012 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Dream:

As-salaamu Alaykoem(WRBT)
We make duah for Allah(SBUH) to grant Mawlana Shaykh Nazim excellent health and strength, Ameen.
I dreamt speaking to Allah(SBUH) about people who commit sins in their sleep. I know that the ruh is active in the dream state, are things you commit of a sinful nature recorded by the malaaikah, especially if you commit the same sin (sexual nature) often.
Shukrun

Interpretation:

Alaykum Salam,
Amin, there is no such thing as sinning in sleep since Prophet upon him blessings and peace said the Pen of the Recording Angels is lifted at that time. Wet dream is shaytan affecting the person in their sleep and the way to protect oneself is to have wudu‘ before sleep and recite the dua of going to bed at that time: Allahumma anta al-Muhyi wal-Mumit, fa-amutu wa-ahya bika wa a`udhu bika wa ayna a`udhu illa bika, fa-ghfir li fa-innahu la yaghfiru al-dhunuba illa anta. Then Shahada x1. May also recite the last three Suras of Qur’an for extra protection.

Earning Income

Posted on February 11, 2012 by Shaykh Senad Agic

Question:

Salam Alaikum. Please ask a question to Shaykh for me:

I work as a taxi driver so does picking up people too and from pubs & clubs, does this come under haram income? Is it permissible to work & earn a living like this in the evening work if daytime work is not so busy?

Answer:

wa `alaykum salam,

It is not haram to do certain things such as picking up customers from pubs and clubs if it’s against your will. You should, however, prefer working during the day. The day is for work and night is to rest and worship.

Husband Gambling

Posted on February 11, 2012 by Shaykh Senad Agic

Question:

salam,
I caught my husband gambling twice before, he promised me he will never do it again, and hadn’t gambled for 3 months. Recently i noticed he went to casino on 3 occasions. I have been so upset. I confronted him and he brought the Qur’an and took oath on it that he will never gamble again. My mum is saying to trust him as he has taking oath on Qur’an, but i really trusted him. I love him and i cant even divorce him, what shall i do.

Answer:

wa `alaykum salam,
There is no sin on you if your husband gambles. Your living with him is not haram. Keep on pressuring him to stay away from this haram habit and to repent sincerely.

Dream: Chamber of Prophet pbuh

Posted on February 11, 2012 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Dream:

Asalaamlikum,
I recently had a dream, where I’m a in large room and around the room was a beautiful woman in white and she came towards me and had the most brightest white face and she tried to touch me and I told her this is the chamber of the Holy Prophet Muhammad SAW and we are not allowed to do such things at the holy chamber. Also felt around the chamber was the holy grave of Abu Bakr Sadiqqe RA and other pious men. The dream had a sense of heavy presence.

May Allah swt bless you endlessly Shaykh.

Walikum Asalaam.

Interpretation:

Alaykum Salam,
It is a good dream and if not married already you should try to get married.

Converting for a Relationship

Posted on February 11, 2012 by Shaykh Senad Agic

Question:

Aslamu Alaykum,
I need help as soon as possible please, I am a female and I have come across a disbeliever who is a male and he is in love with a Muslim girl. So, because of her he wants to learn  Islam from me, but my friend has said it isn’t jaiz for me to help him because he wants to convert into Islam because of the girl, what should I do?

Remember me in your duas.

Answer:

wa `alaykum salam,
You are allowed to help a male non-Muslim learn about Islam by means that will not create a fitnah between you. We can never know for sure that he is learning about Islam just to marry a Muslim girl. Even if it is the case, Allah swt may make him a practicing Muslim better than many of us. Therefore we are not to speculate about his intention but make ourselves available whenever we can to help non-Muslims learn about the final Message from Allah swt to mankind.

Istikhara follow up

Posted on February 10, 2012 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Question:

Salaam to all,
Earlier in the year i posted the following & had a reply:

I suffer from mild autism so it had made it difficult to be loving to people in a manner to let people come close&other less serious characteristics. However,alhumdulillah i feel i have got better & can be loving to whom i marry. I know the person i asked about in above post is not married. Forgive me for delay in acting(mild autism made me anxious & puts lots random thought in my head which are tiring),… I’m so happy i feel so much better alhumdulillah. Is there any time restriction on acting on advice/orders i was given?is it possible also that as we are both not married elsewhere & that is a sign for this to happen between us. I want to marry this person as I’m of better health and can love and look after her. Alhumdulillah

Please pray for my situation and health:) jazakallah

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,

Delaying is excusable for you, so there is no time restriction but try as much as possible to go ahead without delay. Mawlana Shaykh Nazim and Mawlana Shaykh Hisham are praying for you. May Allah Most High give you happiness here and hereafter.
