Question:
Salaam Shaykh and All,
I had a vision after praying Fajr and reciting dhikr during Dhul Hijjah. I was awake and saw a brown dog looking angrily at me and the back of a person walking away. Then another dog came running towards me barking, I heard the barking sound. I closed my eyes and started reciting ya Allah and felt like I was sinking, my soul was sinking. I kept reciting until I felt I was released. This all happened whilst being wide awake. It was a very scary moment. Please advice what this meant and what precautions should I take. Your time and effort is highly appreciated. Salaam.
Answer:
`Alaykum Salam,
Dunya, hawa, nafs and shaytan are the four enemies that believers who struggle hard might sometimes see in the flesh. If they are angry with us it means you are doing good so continue with your dhikr as they will become increasingly powerless against you.
