Dream: Rescued a female cat

Dream:

Salaam! I dreamt I was at the apartment where I lived as a kid before we moved to our house. I noticed a kitten crouched by a Uhaul van. Concerned it would get run over, I ran to get it. It got scared and ran across a busy street. I paused at the van, out of breath, and noticed a dead warthog there. As I was about to go back inside, the kitten ran across the busy street again and jumped into my arms. I took it inside even though the landlord didn’t allow pets and told my parents I’d keep it for one night and find it a home tomorrow. At the end of my dream the kitten had grown into an adult female grey tabby, which I loved dearly. I have dreams about rescuing animals fairly often, but have never owned a pet. What does this mean?

Interpretation:

The dreams shows a guardian and helper for you to reach your spiritual target. Rescuing animals indicates you will be of service and help to people. And Allah knows best.

reciting quran sharif
reciting Quran Sharif

Dream:

I dreamed that I was going to the circus, where I was late. Everyone calling out my name and saying that I have nice voice, so therefore I have to recite the Holy Quran. So I join them and reciting the Quran by my heart with them together. After that I went home and suddenly I had a daughter (3 years old, which I lost long time ago in my dream). She is very pretty and she has light green eyes. My mum keeps telling me that I have to breastfeed her, but I don’t know how, still I try but it didn’t work out. After whenever I put my feet, I see verses of Quran on the floor. I keep trying to avoid them because of gunnah, but it didn’t work out. The verses of Quran are everywhere now and increase.

PS: In reality I know the 3 years old girl.

Interpretation:

Dream points to growing up, reading Qur’an and getting married and/or having children.

Dream: Masjid ul Haraam: istakhara dream

Dream:

I was making istakhara regarding the ignorance of somebody.

Day 1: I saw some stranger try to force me. I was wearing white dress, and as I struggled to free myself I saw blood on my dress. I got shocked, while I was running I saw blood puddles on floor, but didn’t know whose blood it was.

Day 2: I was at Masjidul-Haram with my mother and there was a lot of security. I was getting excited to go to the Kabah as soon, and that the entrance towards Kabah was below this floor. And that I was setting my hijab again and again.

Interpretation:

The first dream shows that the person is not being honest with you, while the second dream shows you will be protected and in safety. And Allah knows best.

3:97 Al-Imran (The Family of Imran)

فِيهِ آيَاتٌ بَيِّـنَاتٌ مَّقَامُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمَن دَخَلَهُ كَانَ آمِنًا وَلِلّهِ عَلَى النَّاسِ حِجُّ الْبَيْتِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلاً وَمَن كَفَرَ فَإِنَّ الله غَنِيٌّ عَنِ الْعَالَمِينَ

(Y. Ali) In it are Signs Manifest; (for example), the Station of Abraham; whoever enters it attains security; Pilgrimage thereto is a duty men owe to Allah,- those who can afford the journey; but if any deny faith, Allah stands not in need of any of His creatures.

Imam Shafii’s tabarruk with the shirt of Imam Ahmed

Question:

Is the report on Imam Shafii seeking tabarruk with the shirt of Imam Ahmed authentic? This report was said to be mentioned in Manaqib Imam Ahmed of Ibn al Jawzi and Tarikh dimashq of Ibn `Asakair.

Moreover, there is a opposite report said to be mentioned in the first chapter of the book Al-usûl al-arba’a fî tardîd al-Wahhâbiyya, where it says :

“Imâm Ahmad ibn Hanbal put al-Imâm ash-Shâfi’î’s (rahmatullâhi ta’âlâ ’aleyh) shirt into water and drank the water to get blessings.”

Is this second report (where it is Imam Ahmed who seeks tabarruk) mistaken?

Answer:

Ibn al-Jawzi considered it authentic, al-Dhahabi not, and Allah knows best. There is no basis for the report that the act was done by Imam Ahmad with Imam al-Shafi`i’s shirt. Rather, the reports mention it was al-Shafi`i with Ahmad’s shirt, after the ordeal of the latter at the hands of the Mu`tazili government and Allah knows best.

Hadith from Naqshbandi.org

Question:

As salamu alaykum,

I read this hadith on Naqshbandi.org:
It is narrated in Sharhus Sudoor by al-Imam al-Suyuti that Nabi Muhammad (s) said that when you visit the graveyard, you should read Suratul-Ikhlas, Suratut-Takathur and Suratul-Fatiha, and present the reward of the recitations as a gift to the inhabitants of the graves. Nabi Muhammad (s) explains that these souls will then make du’a for you, asking Allah (swt) to forgive you and bless you.

Can you please give this hadith with the exact wordings and complete with reference. I would like to study it.

jazakallah

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,

It is found here:

The correct translation is “These souls will intercede for you to Allah Most High.” Suyuti’s source is the Fawa’id of Abu al-Qasim Sa`d b. `Ali al-Zanjani (d. 471), from Abu Hurayra.
The wording is:

عن أبي هريرة
قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم من دخل المقابر ثم قرأ فاتحة
الكتاب وقل هو الله أحد وألهاكم التكاثر ثم قال إني جعلت ثواب ما
قرأت من كلامك لأهل المقابر من المؤمنين والمؤمنات كانوا شفعاء له
إلى الله تعالى

Fazila with Names of Allah Azawajjal

Question:

Assalamu wa ‘alaykum Shuyukh,

I ask, was the mosque with a Moulana and then deliver books about zikr with names of Allah Azawajjal, the Moulana does not speak our language and tried to explain it but we did not quite understand his answer. Then I would like to ask you about some dhikrs and wazifah recommended by Awliyah and Ulama, for example, eg 33 times ya Maliku, 21 ya Alimu , ya Qaharu, where did these numbers and these repetitions with the names of Allah Azawajjal. I’m not convinced about that question, but many here ask me about it and would like to have an answer for this.

Even a very boring event happened in a Wahabi mosque Shaykh said that we could not distribute books about it in the mosque for not Dalil and that he abandoned the path of Tasawwuf that his father went on that account.

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,

There is no harm in repeating the Holy Names of Allah Most High for a good and spiritual reason, not for dunya, under the guidance of an authorized teacher. As for those who do not accept it they are free and we are not responsible for them nor are they responsible for us.

Dream: Laughing

Dream:

Applied to enroll for a pilot training where I had to do a test which is valid for 1 year. Unfortunately I failed but I have the opportunity to do it after 1 year. Therefore I did istakhara if I should re-enrol or not. Had a dream where I  was laughing with the interviewer (from the flying school during enrolment) a woman came in telling me test are not valid but the interviewer said he will sort it out and thus told me test are valid and everything is sorted and I was happy.

Mount Qaf

Question:

I want to know about the Mount Qaf. Please tell me extensive detail about it.

Answer:

Ibn Abi al-Dunya and Abu al-Shaykh narrated from Ibn `Abbas (Allah be well-pleased with him): “Allah has created a mountain called Qaf which surrounds the world, and whose roots stem from the rock on which the earth rests. Whenever Allah wants to shake a town He orders that mountain to shake the root that belongs to that town. That is why  earthquakes occur in some places exclusively of others.”

Ibn al-Mundhir, Abu al-Shaykh in al-Azhama, al-Hakim and Ibn Marduyah all related from `Abd Allah b. Burayda in exegesis of {Qaf} (50:1): “It is a mountain of emerald surrounding the world, on which rest the two sides of the sky.”

Imam al-Suyuti mentions in al-Durr al-Manthur, that `Abd al-Razzaq narrated from Mujahid: “Qaf is a mountain surrounding the world.”

Imam al-Baghawi mentioned in his Tafsir Ma`alim al-Tanzil from `Ikrima and al-Dahhak: “Qaf is a mountain of green emerald surrounding the world the way a wall surrounds a garden. The sky’s sides rest over it, hence its blue color.”

Others such as Ibn Kathir and al-Alusi rejected the above reports as inauthentic or Israelite stories. And Allah knows best.

Dream: Baiyyath

Dream:

I had a dream in that, the great Muhieddeen Abdul Qadir of Jilani gave me baiyyath. Afterwards same year on the 1st of Dhul Hajj, in my mid-day nap our beloved Rasool e Kareem sallallahu alaihi wa sallam gave me baiyyath, promising many things. Also on my request they gave me their spit with howlal kauser water and I drank it, alhamdulillah. Also in one my recent dreams Seyyidathina Fathima az-Zahra radiyallahu anha, gave me a respected hair taken from their hand to keep with me, as a blessing. There are many more dreams but I’m unable to describe cause only 1 paragraph allowed. Please tell me the meanings of my dreams, jazakallahu khair!

Interpretation:

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

Mawlana Shaykh Hisham said about the endless honor to see Prophet (ṣall Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) in a dream: “Seeing the Prophet (ṣall Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) in a dream means you will be relieved from seven difficulties in dunya and in akhirah. Also, Imam Suyuti (r) said that if you see the Prophet (ṣall Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) in your dream, you will see him in reality before you leave dunya! ”

Seeing Sayida Fatima-az-Zahra and Shaykh Abdul Qader Jilani (qaddasa-l-Lahu sirrah) in dreams show that you are under their spiritual protection and their heavenly guidance.

All these dreams show that you are on the right path and that you need to continue to be constant until they open more realities and secrets insh Allah.
Pray for us insh Allah.

And Allah knows best.
