Question:
He asks: Is the interpretation of dreams part of issuing fatwas?
Answer:
It is a type of fatwa, but it is based on conjecture. It is not based on conjecture, nor is it for a legal ruling. It is for a legal ruling only in the case of the dreams of the Prophets (peace and blessings be upon them), for those are revelation. As for the dreams of other than the Prophets, they are conjectural.[Yusuf 12:43] He said: “Give me an interpretation.” It is a type of fatwa, but it is built on conjecture. [Yusuf 12:42] Yes.

وَقَالَ لِلَّذِي ظَنَّ أَنَّهُ نَاجٍ مِّنْهُمَا اذْكُرْنِي عِندَ رَبِّكَ
