I have been asking so many people about this question but no one has been able to answer my question, I even emailed a sheikh to answer my question but he replied back saying that he does not answer questions regarding dreams. I really need my answer to following question, please brothers and sisters answer if you know
Q: What is the significance of two people having the same exact dream (by exact I mean exactly same even takes place, the environment and everything in the dreams are the same)
In my point of view, I think it is likely that the dream will come true, what do you think??
Jazakallah in advance

I'm not sure what the probability is but no doubt it happens to people now and again. It's probably more likely if you've done or talked about the same thing. If a group of friends all go to paintballing for the day, it's likely some of them will dream about paintballing. Maybe 2 of them will have the exact same scenario in their dream because they interpreted the day in a similar way? You and your friend might have been talking about something or had something on your mind for that day or week and then both dreamt about it.
Or of course it's not random and will come true.
Either way there's not much you can do about it; time will tell.
Assalaam Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,
That dream may come true.Allah knows best.I just point out some facts about dreams:
1.An important element of Sura Yusuf is Yusuf’s dream, just as the Qur’an shows in veiled fashion through verses like:
"And We made your sleep for rest"
that there are important truths contained in dreams and sleep.
2. Those who follow the path of reality are not in favour of relying on the interpretation of dreams and taking of omens by means of the Qur’an. The reason is this: the All-Wise Qur’an strikes at the unbelievers frequently and severely. When this severity against the unbelievers is shown to one taking omens, it causes him to despair; it confuses his heart. Dreams too, while good, since they sometimes appear to be opposed to reality, are thought to be evil, causing a person to fall into despair, destroying his morale, and causing him to think badly of things. There are many dreams which although they take a terrifying, injurious, or unclean form, their meanings and interpretations are very good. But since everyone cannot find the relation between the form of the dream and the reality of its meaning, they become unnecessarily anxious, despairing, and unhappy.
3. Dreams are of three sorts. Two of these, in the words of the Qur’an, are "A confused medley of dreams"; included among these, they are not worth interpreting. If they have any meaning, it is of no importance. Either due to an ailment, the power of imagination mixes things up and depicts them in accordance with the person’s sickness, or the imagination recalls some stimulating event which occurred to the person that day, or previously, or even at the same time a year or two earlier, and it modifies and depicts it, giving it some other form. This sort too are A confused medley of dreams, and not worth interpreting.
The third sort are true dreams. With the senses that bind man to the Manifest World and roam in that world resting and ceasing their activity, the dominical subtle faculty in man’s essential nature finds a direct relation with World of the Unseen and opens up a window onto it. Through that window, it looks on events whose occurrence is being prepared; it encounters the manifestations of the Preserved Tablet and one of the types of samples of the missives of Divine Determining; it sees some true occurrences. Sometimes the imagination governs in those occurrences, dressing them in the garments of form. There are numerous types and levels of this sort of dream. Sometimes they turn out exactly as dreamed; sometimes they turn out slightly concealed, as though under a fine veil; and sometimes they turn out heavily veiled.
I'm not sure what the probability is but no doubt it happens to people now and again. It's probably more likely if you've done or talked about the same thing. If a group of friends all go to paintballing for the day, it's likely some of them will dream about paintballing. Maybe 2 of them will have the exact same scenario in their dream because they interpreted the day in a similar way? You and your friend might have been talking about something or had something on your mind for that day or week and then both dreamt about it.
Or of course it's not random and will come true.
Either way there's not much you can do about it; time will tell.
I addition to what Dagless siad,one cant say this for sure whether it will come true or not.In some cases,such dreams come true but sometimes two different people who saw the same dream actually spend time in the same atmosphere.
The person who can say this for sure This time is you,yourself.Im sure you can interpret your dream or just have a rough idea what your dream means.If thats a bad one,dont worry,some dreams are just warnings and bad thing dont actually happen if you stay away from the people or places mentioned in your dream.Give some Sadaqa and trust in Allah swt,every thing will be fine Inshallah.And if thats a good one,then good luck,i pray that future will bring something good and benificial for you.
Asalaamu alaikum. Unfortunatley we as lay people cannot interpret dreams. There are not too many scholars who can either as dream interpretation is a specialised skill for which only a few have the necessery skills and knowledge to interpret.
Do not get too eager to have it interpreted. It may or may not have any significance but if something is decreed for you then it will happen no matter what and you will not be able to change that. Rely and trust in Allah and ask of him to do whatever is best for u in every aspect of your life. That is sufficient for you.

well... no I have not talked or or had something in our mind when it happened
The weird thing is I havent even seen this person I had a dream about, what I mean is that 3 years ago i had a dream (not tellin what it was about) then three years later I met this peson online and I never told my friends or anyone about my dream. In my dream the picture of the person was blurry so I did not know who it was really. Anyways three years later when I met this person online, about two months later this peron told me about their dream and it was exactly the same dream, we were wearing the same colour clothes, same environemnt, same things happened aswell and the freaky thing is that the peron didnt even know I had that dream yet this person ended up having the same exact dream as me.
