Question:
Is it true that Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him) saw Allah in a dream? And can the vision be of Allah's true form?

Answer:
We answered you last night and said that it is permissible for a believer to see his Lord in a dream, if he believes in Allah with sincere faith and in His names and attributes. Allah the Exalted and Majestic may honor him by letting him see Him in the vision. The vision is not waking; the vision is not waking. Yes.
