I think he meant , that you lived as a believer and is on right guidance and died a believer hence you answered the grave correctly. But guidance/faith can change overtime, so thats why he said may allah swt keep you with iman and take you with iman and did not guarantee that you would live with iman , and died with iman, so you should keep up with your faith. Inshallah

I can see there's a definite need for more `Ulamaa who are skilled in the field of Ta`beer (Dream Interpretation). Currently, I only know of those two, i.e. Mufti Salejee and Mufti Limbada.

There is bound to be more. I will try to find more and compile a list of such `Ulamaa, In Shaa Allaah.

The mufti shouldve been clear in his explanation, not that there was one, tbh, but, the brother who dreamt it felt good about it and it does seem like a good dream. Insha'allah it is a means of barakah for him.

Best is to have a beautiful interpretation of it, and better to keep it to loved ones.

Can i ask about those two muftis , do they belong to any sect, which jurisprudence do they belong , any school of thought?
 
There is another `Aalim who does dream interpretation:

www.alislam.co.za

Mufti Afzal Hoosen (A.H.) Elias, from Durban, South Africa. An associate of probably the most famous `Aalim of South Africa: Maulana A.S. Desai of the infamous "Mujlisul Ulama of South Africa".

I have to warn you, though: He tends to give very, very, very concise answers. I've seen people ask him questions a page long and he answers in three words. It is rare for him to give an answer that exceeds one sentence.
 
So far, the `Ulamaa who do dream interpretation:

1) Mufti Ebrahim Salejee.

2) Mufti Abdur Raheem Limbada.

3) Mufti A.H. Elias.

-------

We need to get more names on that list, In Shaa Allaah.

Question:

Question ID: 21681
when i was 16 i used to talk to a guy on phone. one day he called me on my number and a person which he said was a molvi asked me thrice if I accept him in my marriage and i said yes three times on phone. at that time I was alone, and i dont know anything about the other side of the phone that how many people were present, the speakers of phone were on or off, who was the person who asked me that, i dont know anything. i never signed any nikah nama. i met the guy 2,3 times after this incident but never formed relationship of husband and wife.
i know that whatever i did i wrong and a big sin, i soon repented, and completely stopped talking to that guy, i also started covering my face and started following islam completely.
its been 6 years now and today i am engaged to some one else. but i still doubt that i am in nikah of that guy. I dont know if it was a real nikah or a fake nikah
I want to ask that:
1) if it was a valid nikah?
2) can i marry now someone else without letting anyone know about my past? is it necessary to let my parents and my fiance know about whatever happened in my past?
if you can provide me with a reference of a hadees or qurani verse or any fatwah, it will free me from my suffering.
Ps: please note that i follow hanafi fiqh, so i request you to provide me answer in the light of hanafi school of thought if possible, i also request you to keep this question private
waiting for response.

There are three kinds of dreams:

1) True dreams, from Allaah Ta`aalaa. These are Bashaaraat (glad-tidings) for the Mu'min. Via true dreams, Allaah Ta`aalaa can show a person a person something of the Aakhirah, or give them some news of something which might happen, or show them the correct path to take or the correct decision to make regarding a particular thing, or have people who have moved to the Aakhirah visit them in these dreams by the Permission of Allaah Ta`aalaa.

2) Evil dreams / Nightmares. These are from Shaytaan. They do it for no reason other than to try and trouble the Muslim.

3) Adhghaathu Ahlaam (mixed-up dreams which have no meaning, and which can result from eating too much before sleeping.)

In one narration mentioned by Imaam an-Nawawi رحمة الله عليه in Kitaab al-Adhkaar, Hadhrat `Aa'ishah رضي الله عنها used to make the following Du`aa (i.e. in order to get true dreams):

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أسألُكَ رُؤْيا صَالِحَةً، صَادِقَة غَيْرَ كاذِبَةً، نافِعَةً غَيْرَ ضَارَّةٍ​

Allaahumma Innee As'aluka Ru'yaa Saalihah, Saadiqatan Ghayra Kaadhibah, Naafi`atan Ghayra Dhaarrah. (O Allaah! I ask You for dreams which are pious; true and not false; beneficial and not harmful.)

May Allaah Ta`aalaa grant all of us true dreams, as Bashaaraat.

آمين يا رب العالمين​

:salam:

Do dreams coming from oneself, i.e. desires/nafs, fall under the 3rd category? I.e. dreams about intimacy, where do these come from, the nafs, Shayateen/Jinn?

I wish I got a dream from Allah showing me guidance. may Allah :swt: grant us that. Ameen.

may Allah :swt: guide us to Tawheed and clarify us every detail, as this religion is on clarity. Ameen.

And Allah :swt: knows best.

Wow that's really to the point - on many sites the fatwas given by muftis can be pages long to a one sentence question. I suppose he doesn't feel like he needs to delve into any of those background details.

But it does provide the answers, and has a unique style to it

وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته​

Dreams of intimacy are from the Nafs, so they are part of "Adhghaathu Ahlaam".

May Allaah Ta`aalaa grant all of us true dreams.

آمين يا رب العالمين

​
Earlier in this thread I quoted Imaam ibn Hajar al-`Asqalaani رحمة الله عليه on the method of acquiring true dreams. I'll post it again:

-----------

Haafiz ibn Hajar al-`Asqalaani رحمة الله عليه states in Fat-hul Baari that a person who wants to get true dreams should do the following:

1) Sleep with Wudhoo.

2) Lay on his right side.

3) Recite Soorah ash-Shams, Soorah al-Layl, Soorah at-Teen, Soorah al-Ikhlaas, Soorah al-Falaq and Soorah an-Naas.

4) He should make the following Du`aa:

اللهم إني أعوذ بك من سيء الأحلام، وأستجيرك من تلاعب الشيطان في اليقظة والمنام، اللهم إني أسألك رؤيا صادقة نافعة حافظة غير منسية، اللهم أرني في منامي ما أحب
​

Allaahumma Innee A`oodhu Bika min Sayyi'il Ahlaam, wa Astajeeruka min Talaa`ub-ish-Shaytaan fil-Yaqazhati wal Manaam. Allaahumma Innee As'aluka Ru'yaa Saadiqah, Naafi`ah, Haafizhah, Ghayra Mansiyyah. Allaahumma Arinee fee Manaamee Maa Uhibbu.

(O Allaah, I seek protection in You from evil dreams, and I seek Your Protection from the playing of Shaytaan, both in wakefulness and in sleep. O Allaah, I ask You for dreams which are truthful, beneficial, remembered and not forgotten (after waking up). O Allaah, show me in my dreams that which I want to see.)


آمين يا رب العالمين​

There are three kinds of Fataawaa:

1) Long and detailed.

2) Extremely short and concise (like Mufti A.H. Elias).

3) Moderate length; enough details to be clearly understood and concise enough to not lose the person's attention.

Some of Mufti Elias's Fataawaa are so short that the people send a follow up question to clarify his Fatwaa. "Did you mean 'Yes, it's permissible.' or 'Yes, it's not permissible.'?" Mufti Elias's "Yes/No" answers are very often unclear to the questioner.

So the best is the third category. The middle path.
