			start off by praising Allah subhanho wa Taala who is no doubt our Creator sustainer nourish, protect
and cure. We asked him subhanho wa Taala to shower his choices of blessings and salutations upon our
beloved prophet muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi wa sallam, his family members, his companions
and all those who tread upon his path with utmost sincerity until the day of
		

			slaves of Allah first and foremost, I advise myself and then all of you all present here to adopt a
life of taqwa. And that is to fear Allah subhanho wa Taala and to be conscious of him during every
single second of our lives, if we wish to attain success in this world as well as the hereafter. May
Allah subhanho wa Taala make us all from the people of taqwa and mainly make us from the victorious
and successful ones. I mean,
		

			inshallah, to Allah, The topic for today's kotoba is, why do we dream? Let me repeat the topic
again. Why do we dream?
		

			When we look at our brains from a scientific point of view,
		

			it is a mysterious little ball of gray matter, scientists and researchers have been researching and
studying about the brain. And they're still baffled in regard to certain things that our brains do
in regard to the how and why these things take place. And in terms of sleep studies, and dream
studies, here to this particular area two scientists and researchers have been researching for a
long time, and they are yet confused in regard to the reason as to why we really dream. So let's
look at what Islam has to say about dreams. To start off, let me share a hobby so the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam there has been recorded in the book of Imam Bukhari and Muslim rahima
		

			Humala and the narration goes along the lines of these words, but for the Why is that a long while
you had to send him his report we have said that dreams are of three types. Dreams are of three
types. Type number one is the dream that comes from Allah subhanho wa Taala. We're going to go into
each category and expound in Sharla data. But at the very outset, let me briefly touch on the three
categories. Category number one, are the dreams that come from Allah subhanho wa Taala. Category
number two is the type of dreams that comes from the devil. It comes from shavon himself. And the
final category is a category where an individual perhaps thinks about something in the morning and
		

			he dreams about it in the evening is from his own imagination. We'll talk about each of these
categories in detail in Shambo done before we
		

			Go into the categories themselves. There are a few misconceptions sadly that people have about
dreams. There's actually a spectrum, we have certain individuals who completely dismiss dreams and
say that dreams, you know, are just like legends and they really have nothing to do with us. They
don't believe in dreams and they completely dismiss the dreams, they wouldn't consider dreams to be
from Allah subhanho wa Taala or from the devil, they completely dismiss dreams. But like I said, we
have an authentic hadith words of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that clearly state that
there is one category that is from Allah, Subhana Medina, and yes, one category from the devil, and
		

			one category from within our own selves. And apart from that, when we look at the other extreme of
the spectrum, we have certain individuals who go overboard with their dreams, where they think that
if I see a particular dream, I have to act upon that particular dream, or every single dream that I
see, be it an evil dream, otherwise known as nightmares in the English language, even those dreams,
they consider those dreams to be messages that they are supposed to act upon. There was even an
incident
		

			in the lands of Arabia to place in the lands of Arabia, there was a woman who asked a scholar in
regard to a dream that she had seen. She had seen her husband in that dream involving himself in
Xena in fornication and adultery in her dream. So she was on the verge of requesting and asking for
a divorce because of that, because she strongly believed because of the dream that her husband was
involved in adultery, he was involved in an illicit relationship and extramarital relationship
perhaps, and she wanted to go ahead and file the papers for divorce. So as you can see, there is a
spectrum where some of us sadly, on one extreme, where we go overboard in terms of believing dreams
		

			confirming in them and at times, even acting upon them. And then we have another extreme where there
are those of us who completely dismiss dreams. So the whole point of today's hookah is inshallah to
Allah to shed light upon the matter and the topic of dreams through the Quran and the Sunnah of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi wa sallam, so that we are upon clarity in regard to our dreams,
and most importantly, so that we know what to do when we see a dream, a good dream or a bad dream.
Now moving on into the categories. Let's start off with the type of dreams that stem from within our
own selves. Now, this particular category has been discussed in detail by the scholars. And there
		

			are two names that they suit for this type of a dream. One is heavy to neffs in the Arabic language
heavy to neffs. In the sense of self talk, you can translate that as self talk. And another name
that the scholars suit for this type of a dream is Neff Sani Neff, Sen in the sense a psychological
dream. Let me give you an example. Say a person is looking at buying an a nice motor vehicle and
expensive motor vehicle. He is in the market looking to perhaps buy the latest BMW or the latest
Porsche. He's daydreaming about this particular car about this particular motor vehicle. It's all
what he thinks about throughout the day, he's going around checking, you know, showrooms for this
		

			particular vehicle, maybe even test driving a few vehicles. So he's thinking about this vehicle, day
and night. So throughout the day, he's going around checking for this vehicle, like I said, He's
daydreaming about the vehicle. So when night comes about lo and behold, he goes to sleep and then he
finds himself in a dream driving that particular vehicle. Now, this is a figment from his own
imagination. And you have to understand that this particular category is also affected by external
impulses. External impulses affect this type of dreams. Like say for example,
		

			if whilst you were sleeping, if you were to subconsciously hear the gurgling sound of water, or if
someone were to come and put a cup of water on your face, to wake you up for failure, perhaps now
what may happen is because of the external impulses, you may see yourself drowning in a particular
dream, you may because of the external impulses, because external impulses do affect this type of
		

			dreams. This dream is known as a this category is known as necessarily, like I said, psychological
dreams. Now, does this dream have anything to do with good or evil scholars clearly state that this
particular category has nothing to do with good or evil, there is no good message within this dream.
Nor is there any evil message in this dream because it is just a figment of your own imagination,
your train of thought, your thoughts that day, perhaps things that were in your subconscious
external impulses. These are the things that effect this particular category of dreams. This is
number one.
		

			Moving on to the second category. Now this category, like I said upon proverbs of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is the type of a dream that comes
		

			From the devil himself. Now let's expound in detail in regard to this particular category insha
Allah. Now this category two has two names suited by the scholars. Number one problem with shavon.
Home Ministry upon in the sense, you can translate that as nightmares from the devil. This is
category This is named number one. And the other name that they sued for this is shaytani. This is a
shaytani type of a dream in the sense a devilish dream or a nightmare, if you will. Now, like I said
earlier, these dreams are from the devil himself. Say for example,
		

			you see a dream, where you find yourself in a gruesome and horrible accident. May Allah subhanho wa
Taala save us all and protect us. I mean, on the other hand, you see your loved ones in a dreadful
accident, may Allah subhanho wa Taala protect all of our loved ones, I mean, or you see yourself
being chased by monsters by aliens by bees, by Boogie things. You see these kinds of dreams. And the
sign to identify this dream is that you wake up terrified, you wake up horrified. You wake up in a
cold sweat, you're scared, you're petrified. I mean, if you see this type of a dream. Now this dream
or this particular category of dreams is from Shere Khan himself. There was once an incident where a
		

			man came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
		

			And said to him Yasuda long, I saw a dream, the narration goes along the lines of these words, I saw
a dream where in that dream, my head, my head was chopped off, my head was chopped off, and my head
was rolling on the ground like a ball, and I was running behind my head to pick it up, I was running
behind my head to catch it and pick it up. But otherwise, for the long haul, you lie you sell him
when he heard this from the man who immediately educated the man he told the man, don't go around
telling people about how the devil toyed with you last night. Don't go around telling people in
regard to how the devil played with you last night. Now there are a number of points that can be
		

			deduced from this particular Heidi. Firstly, we're not supposed to go around talking about our
nightmares. We're not supposed to go around talking about all these scary visions that we attend.
See at night. That's number one. And number two, we clearly understand that these visions are a
result of the play of the devil. He is looking at irritating us, he's looking at perhaps causing
some mischeif he's looking at frightening us. This is completely from the devil. And in terms of
what can be deduced from these dreams is that there is no good at all that can be deduced from such
dreams. No, are we supposed to be scared of the evil that is contained within the dream in the sense
		

			if you see something horrifying, you're not supposed to believe in those dreams, because these
dreams are from the devil. And he's trying to play around with us. Like say for example, you see
yourself in a dream, like I said earlier facing an accident in your motor vehicle. Now just because
you saw this dream The next day when you wake up, you call your office and you say that you're not
coming in for work. Why? Because you're scared to drive that day because you think your dream might
come true. Your dream might come true. Maybe your sister sees herself, you know, going through a
horrible accident in the kitchen. And now the minute she wakes up she decides you know what we're
		

			ordering food today. I'm not cooking today, I'm not going anywhere close to the kitchen. Now the
minute we come up with such decisions, say we call in and say we're not coming forward. That's when
the devil starts to laugh away. Why? Because he has fooled you. He has made you believe in that
particular dream. You have become superstitious, you have started to believe in a dream which is
from the devil himself. At the end of the day, we need to understand that everything has been
decreed by Allah subhanho wa Taala these evil dreams from the devil cannot change the decree of
Allah subhanho wa Taala. So before we move into the final category, let's look at a few quick action
		

			items that have been taught to us by the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to primarily protect
ourselves from such dreams and say if we were to experience such a dream, a few action items to do
at that time as well.
		

			Number one, we're supposed to read ayatul kursi before we sleep if we want to protect ourselves, you
see ayatul kursi is like an armor and armor that a soldier Dawn's before he goes into battle a
fighter Dawn's before he goes into battle. It protects you I procuracy And likewise, it provides
this aura of protection where no devil no force of evil can think of getting close to you. Because
you need to understand there is just not Chevron out there. There are many forces of evil at work
out there. And we as believers, intelligent believers, we need to be able to secure means of
protection that have been taught to us by the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, through the
		

			Quran, through the Sunnah through the morning evening, as there are many teachings that have been
given to us by the prophet sallallahu Sallam
		

			tools and weapons if you will, that we can utilize to put in precautionary measures to drive and
expel away the devils in terms of ayatul kursi we have the famous Hadith that has been recorded in
the book of Imam Al Bukhari Rahim Allah.
		

			Abu Dhabi along one he makes mention of the narration.
		

			He states that
		

			he states that for a long while you added he was seldom put him in charge of looking after the baby
man. There was some work that had come in Zakat well socketable wealth and this wealth, if you will
have to be divided across the people. There had to be certain percentages that have to be taken out
from the wealth given to the vital man there were certain things that had to be done in regard to
that particular wealth. So anyway, before all of that, so, liason Allah, Selim appointed Abu huraira
de la one, to look after the wealth. The narration goes along the lines of these words. So what
happened was Abu huraira, the loved one, he was put in charge. So night approaches, and now he's
		

			vigilant and he's looking after the world. Suddenly he notices a man a man pilfering away pilfering
away from the wealth. The Zakat was there was a man pilfering away. Abu huraira the last one he
rushes to that man, and he catches him and he tells him he asked him What on earth are you doing?
Why are you stealing from this account? Now the man knew that he was Scott and overall Viola one
went on to say I am going to produce you in front of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		

			The man immediately begins begins to beg and plead and he says please, please let me go. I'm an
extremely poor person. And I'm just doing this to you know, feed myself and my family. We are very
hungry Please let me go. I won't repeat, repeat this. So beware of the other one being a very kind
person in in nature. What he did was he let the man go. He excused the man. He wanted him and let
him go.
		

			Morning cams and Abu huraira the last one goes into the presence of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, and before he could inform Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Rasulullah sallallahu
Sallam asked him
		

			what happened in regard to your visitor last night? Now this was something that Allah subhanho wa
Taala had informed the supervisor about while you it was about and he questionable for the long one
who about it now but the other one was amazed that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam knew about the the
encounter that took place between him and that particular man.
		

			So he tells the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam in regard to what happened between him and the
man. And then the supervisor among wildly varying sentiment, want to say he will come tonight as
well. He will come tonight as well. Now that the professor Allison had given him a heads up over the
other one was even more vigilant that night the second night, because he was on the lookout to catch
the man because he thought I excused the man I let him go and the prophets Allah Allah Islam tells
me that he will come tonight, this time, I'm not going to let him go. Once again, he spots the man
pilfering again. He catches the man and he tells him You know what, nothing doing nothing doing. I'm
		

			not going to listen to you. I am going to produce you in front of the Prophet sallallahu sallam, you
can tell him all of you excuses. The man begs the man pleads and he cries away Please let me go
Please let me go. Finally Abu huraira the last one, he lets him go. morning comes the Prophet
sallallahu Sallam asks him again in regard to the visitor who visited during the night. And he said
that he would come a third time, he will come a third time. Now Abu huraira the last one was
determined come what may? I'm going to produce him in front of the Prophet sallallahu sallam. The
third night This man is pilfering away, Abu huraira. The other one catches him and he tells him I'm
		

			not going to listen to you. I'm producing you in front of the prophets. Allah. Listen. Now the man
knew there's basically three strikes and you're out here. So the man looks at
		

			you and says,
		

			You know what? Let me teach you something. Let me teach you something. And it's something powerful
that I'm going to teach you the narration goes along the lines of these words. Above. The other one
the minute the man said this, this piqued his curiosity. And this intrigued him because at the end
of the day, we have to understand that they were our than students of knowledge. And they all they
were always looking out to seek knowledge. So the minute the man said this one was intrigued. He was
baffled in a way. What is this man going to teach me? He's pilfering away and now he promises to
teach me something amazing. So you looked at the man and said, Okay, give me what you've got. Teach
		

			me What is it? The man looks at him and says, when you go to bed when you go to sleep, read ayatul
kursi read ayatul kursi and you will be protected by Allah subhanho wa Taala. And according to
another narration an angel will be appointed to protect you and no Devin. No Devin will come close
to you. Now these were the
		

			words that the
		

			Man pronounced in front of Abu huraira the alarm one morning comms supervisor Ravana usnm asks Abu
huraira, viola one in regard to what happened the night before Abu huraira the last one went on to
tell the professor lie, listen, and this is what happened. The man said he's going to teach me
something, and I let him go because of that. And he taught me that if I were to read it through cusi
yaroslava, I would be protected by a wasp. But if I when I go to sleep, if I were to read it through
to see, I would be protected by Allah subhanho wa Taala. And no devil would come close to me. Assume
I said, allamani you and he was sent him the mentone to say, Yeah, bye.
		

			The one who taught you this is generally a liar is generally a liar, he always lies. But this time,
this time, he has spoken the truth unto you, and also lies and Allison went on to inform Abu
huraira, the one that it was shaped on, it was chiffon, Holmes himself who had come in the guise of
a human being, he had come in the guise of a human being. Now this is from the abilities of the
jinn, and the angels that they can take on different forms, they can shape shift. So she upon had
come in the form of a human being, and thought about the last one who something and this piece of
information that he shared with, the other one was confirmed by the prophet sallallahu sallam. And
		

			that's why we can take it as evidence. We don't take general statements of the devil as evidence
because he is a liar. But this particular statement was confirmed and sanction by Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wasallam. So we use it as evidence. And we understand that Repossi is extremely
powerful, and it can protect us from the devils because it was said by Shere Khan himself.
		

			Another thing about ikusi is that it is the greatest verse in the Quran, the greatest verse in the
Quran, so please make it a point to read article kursi before you go to bed, as this will protect
you from the harms and the evils of the devils moving on, say if you were to experience a nightmare,
and if you were to wake up shaken, petrified, scared, then what are you supposed to do? According to
the words of the Prophet sallallahu sallam, you are supposed to turn towards your left and spirit.
Now when I say spirit, what should be understood from the the Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi Salaam is Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam did not mean spitting heavily to to to to the left
		

			now, it basically means spitting drying, in the sense a symbolic gesture where you spit dryly
towards your left. Only sound should be emitted and not saliva only sound and not saliva, you spit
dryly to your left and you're supposed to seek refuge in Allah subhanho wa Taala by reading amnesty
either out of the villa he min ash shaytani r rajim. Three times you're supposed to speak three
times and seek refuge in Allah subhanho wa Taala price. According to another narration of the
Prophet sallallahu sallam, you if you have been really shaken up, you can also go perform ablution
and offer to voluntary units of prayer seeking the protection of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And after
		

			that, according to the guidance of the Prophet sallallahu sallam, you're not supposed to go around
the next day morning, if you will, they're not supposed to go around talking about this particular
nightmare. You're not supposed to tell people about this nightmare because nightmares are from the
devil. Now apart from nightmares, by extension, there's another area of discussion. Dreams of an
erotic nature or dreams of a Wilder nature are also from the devils it's also included in this
particular category. And dreams of an erotic nature also known as wet dreams are also known as wet
dreams. Now these dreams to like say for example, an individual sees himself in a dream. indulging
		

			in sexual * perhaps now these dreams which have an erotic nature are from the devil.
		

			And the ruling behind such dreams is that the individual male or female who witnesses such dreams
are not held accountable, nor are they sinful because it is from Shere Khan himself. And apart from
that, if an individual experiences an optional emission, if that individual were to * during
the dream, then that individual should take a complete devotion, a complete bath the next day
morning because through that dream, that individual enters into a state of Genova, a state of a
major ritual impurity. And to come out of that you obviously have to take a full bath, but even
these dreams are from Chevron. Chevron is just playing with our minds. And because perhaps he failed
		

			to make us commit sins in the real world. He tries to make us do it in the world of dreams. there
too. We're supposed to seek refuge of Allah subhanho wa Taala and the ruling like I mentioned,
you're supposed to take a bath that is if you experience a nocturnal emission. That is if you
* during the dream and this is applicable for males and females, it's just not for males,
even females experience such dreams according to
		

			words of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		

			moving on the final category. And this category like I said, is the category where these dreams are
from Allah subhanho wa Taala. And once again there are two names that are suited for this category
as well by the scholars named number one is a Rukia visions and dreams that are from Allah subhanho
wa Taala and the other name is Rama and he in the sense dreams that are Othmani dreams that are from
a rock man from Allah subhanho wa Taala.
		

			Now, how do you identify these dreams, these dreams are identified where you wake up the next day
morning and you do not wake up petrified because when a dream is from Allah subhanho wa Taala you
will never ever wake up petrified, you will never wake up scared, you would either wake up
optimistic, you would wake up in a very positive manner. Like they say, you know, you may have
gotten off the right side of the bed and on the wrong side of the bed because the wrong side of the
bed would mean that you've seen a nightmare. So you would either wake up optimistic in a positive
way. Or you would wake up in a neutral state of mind now either petrified, no optimistic or positive
		

			and the difference between because obviously we know how to identify nightmares. The difference
between a dream from Allah subhanho wa Taala and a dream from your own imagination is that the
dreams from Allah subhanho wa Taala you would remember every single detail in a very vivid manner.
On the other hand, dreams are from your imagination. The next day morning most of the time we will
forget these dreams there are many dreams that we experienced. But we can't remember those dreams
The next day morning because they have completely been erased from our subconscious. Or apart from
that you would only remember bits and pieces of the dream it would be very hazy. But on the other
		

			hand greens are from Allah subhanho wa Taala are very clear and very vivid you would remember every
single detail of that particular dream.
		

			And this particular category, my dear respected elders and brothers in Islam is the category that
the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa sallam used to always experience because their dreams could not be
tempered by the devil. The devil has no access to the dreams of the Prophet sallahu wa Salatu was
Salam know where they are dreams figments of their own imagination, whatever they dreamt was from
Allah subhanho wa Taala. Like say, for example, the dream of Ibrahim alayhi salatu salam, when he
saw himself sacrificing his son, and he went on to act upon that dream because it was divine
revelation from Allah Subhana Medina. And apart from that, the ayah that I read the the inception
		

			use Valley salat wa salam he sees 11 stars 11 stars, the sun and the moon prostrating unto him and
the dream as you all know, comes true manifests itself itself later on towards the end of the story.
So, in terms of the Prophet sallahu wa Salatu was Salam they used to experience only this particular
category of dreams. Now, in terms of general human beings, this particular category divides itself
into two, one is known as wildish in the Arabic language where the dream is clear, it is cut and
right basically, you see something in your dream and the message is that now this type of a dream is
something that Allah subhanho wa Taala bestows upon the righteous individuals, as the professor
		

			Allison is reported to have said, the the truthfulness of an individual's dream is based on that
individual's integrity. If he is truthful in speech, then his dream will be true. According to the
Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam, there is one particular category and the next category is known
as a symbolic category. Now these dreams are cryptic dreams, okay, that contains symbols that need
interpretation that need interpretation, they're not cotton, right? You see a particular dream and
you need to get that dream interpreted.
		

			Like say, for example, towards the end of the story of use valleys that was the RAM, the king of
misser. He sees 17 cows and seven fat cows, he sees the 17 cows devouring the seven fat cows, and no
one at that time could interpret the dream of the king, except for use valleys that was ceram
because use valleys, not wassalam was given that knowledge but Allah subhanho wa Taala. So he
interpreted that dream as the seven fat cows being seven years of abundance in the sense that people
of misery would be blessed with seven years of prosperity and abundance, only to be followed by 17
cows IE seven, seven years of scarcity and difficulty. So he deduced a very powerful mechanism and a
		

			protocol from that dream where he educated the king, that during the seven years of abundance, don't
be neglectful. And he, you know, don't be don't indulge in heedlessness, but instead Prepare
yourselves for the seven years of scarcity and difficulty. So that's what the king did at the end of
the day, use Valley slackbot ceram was appointed as the Minister of Finance and treasuries if you
will. And they stopped themselves for seven years and when the seven years of scarcity
		

			did come about, they had enough provisions to keep themselves safe. And not only that, they were
also able to provide provisions to the neighboring cities. And that's how the brothers of use Valley
snap wassalam came to Egypt to seek help. Anyway, like I said, Now these dreams are cryptic and need
interpretation. So now let's quickly touch on dream interpretation, one or two minutes and then
we'll wrap off inshallah, in terms of dream interpretation, if you see a dream that is symbolic,
that is cryptic, you need to get that dream interpreted. Now, something to be clearly understood
about dream interpretation is that it is a science taught by Allah subhanho wa Taala. It is not a
		

			science that is taught by men to men, you can ask any scholar on Earth, who has spent 10 years
studying the sciences of Islam, 20 years studying the sciences of Islam, there is never ever a
subject taught about dream interpretation. Why? Because this is a science that is not taught by men
to men, nor can you get your dreams interpreted by flicking through a dream dictionary. There are
those who see a dream and then go through the dream dictionaries that are out there and try to get
their dreams interpreted. Now, it doesn't work that way as well. This is a science that I was behind
on what Allah blesses certain individuals with, as Allah subhanho wa Taala says about the Prophet
		

			Yusuf alayhi salatu salam in Surah Yusuf workaholic HGTV carob bukoba, who come into Villa Heidi,
Allah says that he taught us Valley salat wa salam, the interpretation of dreams. This is a science
that is best stowed upon by Allah subhanho wa Taala, to individuals whom He wills. So there are
certain individuals who are good at interpreting dreams, and this is based on their righteousness.
This is based on their knowledge. And this is based on their closeness that they enjoy with Allah
subhanho wa Taala. And there are individuals who are not bestowed with access to this particular
science. If you have not been blessed with it, you can't acquire it except unless of our subhanho wa
		

			Taala. Will so so if you see a dream, and if you want to get it interpreted, firstly, a controverse,
the Prophet salallahu alaihe salam in terms of the good dreams, you're not supposed to even tell
your good dreams except to love once, and people who have a sound knowledge of interpreting dreams,
and they are the people of knowledge, they are the scholars. And like I said, not every scholar, but
if you trust a particular scholar, if you are close to that scholar, then you may go ahead and ask
him in regard to the interpretation of that particular dream, if he can interpret it because at the
end of the day, the righteous scholars they do not lie, he will say yes, I can interpret it and he
		

			will try to interpret it. But if he is not familiar with the interpretation of dreams, he will say
I'm sorry, I'm not able to interpret this particular dream. And one more final note in regard to
symbols is that if you see a dream, for example, in Sri Lanka, or if someone in Africa were to see
an elephant in his dream, now that symbol, according to his context, and according to where he comes
from, could have a different message for him and say, a person in the United Kingdom if he were to
see an elephant in his dream, that symbol would have a different meaning for him. So individuals who
see dreams are supposed to go to the people of knowledge from their own locality, from their own
		

			vicinity, who know their context, who know a little background about themselves, so that they are
able to interpret the dreams accordingly. So important points, many respected elders and brothers in
Islam. If you see a nightmare, don't go around telling anybody about that nightmare. Suppose to seek
refuge in Allah subhanho wa Taala in terms of dreams, from your own imagination, completely dismiss
them they have nothing to do with good or evil. On the other hand, dreams are from Allah subhanho wa
Taala. And like I said, most of the time, the dreams that we see are symbolic and cryptic dreams
that need interpretation in terms of the interpretation, go to people who are firmly grounded in
		

			knowledge, who are righteous, who are close to Allah subhanho wa Taala, who you trust, and apart
from that you may tell your loved ones and the whole reason behind not telling others is to avoid
jealousy, like how the father of use valleys that wassalam advised his son, don't tell this dream to
your brothers. Don't tell this dream that you saw Oh my son to your brethren, because for your key
do like a K there, they might plot against you a mighty plot in a shape on an insomniac movie.
Indeed, Shere Khan is a clear and manifest enemy to mankind. May Allah subhanho wa Taala protect us
