Question:

Sister and I were visiting a family. The mother had to leave for an Islamic class. I was interested in going but I did not have time. My sister was cooking a lot of nice food for this family. She served me couscous with veggies but i didn’t feel content.

Answer:

Your sister is following a way of Islam that will not fulfill your need and desire for spirituality. Seek ‘the meat’ from qualified spiritual teachers, by which I mean those with a connected sanad to Rasulullah (s) for tazkiyya and tarbiyya.

Question:

I saw in a dream I was near one awliya grave which where protect by black bears. then some people came and they throw flags to bears and bears take flags and they ran away.
After I get knife, people say me this is knife of awliya allah.

Answer:

Protecting the grave of a wali means to observe the teachings and practices that wali taught. This dream indicates those who claim to be inheriting from that wali are in fact not able to carry that big trust faithfully and so they ran away. You were an observer of that so it means you are more mature, but they key is to keep your purity at all times (wudu), as the Prophet (s) said, “al-wudu silat al-mu’min – ablution is the weapon of the believer.”

Question:

I dreamt of a man praying (black with no features except an outline of a human beings body) and there was me and this silhouette of a male. The man dies but I survive and I feel like relieve that it is not me and I say Allahu akbar but then I woke up.

Answer:

To become a “man” in the spiritual sense, even though you are a woman, you must get up at night and pray. If not your spiritual side will be caused to “die”. Alhamdulillah in the dream the man dies and you survive meaning you inherit that quality of Night Vigil and defeat your ego and Allah knows best.

وَمَن يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُ مَخْرَجًا وَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَحْتَسِبُ ۚ وَمَن يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بَالِغُ أَمْرِهِ ۚ قَدْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدْرًا

Wa may yattaqillaa ha yaj-‘al lahu makhraja – wa yarzuqhu min haythu la yahtasib – wa may-yata-wakkal ‘a- lallaahi fahuwa hasbuh – innallaha balighu amrih – qad ja ‘a lallahu li kulli shayin qadra
“… And for those who fear Allah, He (ever) prepares a way out, And He provides for him from (sources) he never could imagine. And if any one puts his trust in Allah, sufficient is (Allah) for him. For Allah will surely accomplish his purpose: verily, for all things has Allah appointed a due proportion. (Surat at-Talaq, 65:2-3).

Success is from Allah,
