Dream: My mother and I traveling

Dream:

Salaam!

My mother and I argue occasionally, and I dreamed that we were traveling the world. I was usually the adventurous one until we found a glacier-surrounded sea near the North Pole. She said let’s jump in, and waded in in her coat, and I followed. It was cold, but not uncomfortably so, and we looked up at the stars and it was lovely. Then my dad called and said we had to come home because he lost a credit card. We came home, he turned the house upside down to find it, and found it. My mother angrily told me, This is why spouses shouldn’t have joint accounts. Then I woke up.

Interpretation:

Audhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim
Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm:

Wa alaykumusalaam,

This dream can mean that your mom is giving an advice about responsibility. She want’s you to not involve other in something that you can resolve yourself like your dad did.

And Allah knows best.

Direction of sleep

Question:

Assalam alaikum sheikh,

I would like to ask about the direction of sleeping in my room. If I sleep on my right side its facing away from the Kaaba i.e the Kaaba direction is on my left side and I fear that its disrespectful to put my back towards it. Sometimes I sleep on my back straight and face slightly towards the left side i.e towards to the Kaaba so its not disrespectful. So kindly advise me accordingly.

JazakAllah Khair

Answer:

Wa Alaykum Salam,

Sleeping on one’s right side regardless of the position of Ka’bah is Sunnah. Sleeping on one’s left side is allowed but one does not get
the reward for following the Sunnah.

Prayer Request: Black magic

Question:

Asalamialaikum,

1) I have some gas trouble and my stomach gets big and it’s like  something.. gas leaking and then refilling. It’s happening so on… but this problem will be there in over many days, especially when I travel. Then for  some  days I will be OK.

2)  When I pass urine I feel that I am passing it on my bed in my dreams. I used to pinch my hand or skin to know its not sleeping and real.

3) I have back pain, but not serious. Just a small pain and my hair is falling, and my forehead is getting bigger.

4) Some times I no patience. I will become so angry and, but inside my mind I know that it’s wrong.

5) I have sexual curiosity more…

Somewhere I read that black magic may be the problem behind this.

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,

Go to a weekly dhikr on a regular basis with niyya of shifa. Do not worry too much and do not be angry as this affects you physically and spiritually. Ask Allah to give you rida, rizq and a good wife.

Menstruation on wedding night

Question:

Assalamu Alyakum Dear Shaykh,

I have heard that if a marriage is not consummated within 3 days the marriage is invalid. Is this true?

If a woman is in menstruation on her wedding night, can she still have intercourse with her husband or should she complete her menstruation, make ghusl and then have intercourse, even if its after 5 days?

Jazakallah khayr for your time and effort.
Please remember me and my family in your pious duas.

Answer:

Wa Alaykum Salam,

What you have heard about 3 days is not correct. What is correct is that one cannot have intercourse until his wife (bride) is completely clean from menstruation.

Westernized teenager daughter

Question:

Salaams to everyone,

My teenager daughter who is 15 has slowly become disobedient. She has a boyfriend which we found out about. He is not Muslim. Keep telling her to stop this relationship but does not listen and lies all the time.

Please give me a dua to make her realise what she is doing is wrong before she does anything too serious. It is very hard to communicate with her.

Please help we are worried sick.

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,

Bad manners are usually the result of environment and nurture which is hard to undo at the drop of a hat. If she was raised praying her five prayers then that will protect her. Make sure she knows that you love her and that it will break your hearts that harm should come to her. Recite Ya Hafeez, Ya Sattar, Ya Qadeer x100 daily.
