The Interpretation of Dreams and Whether It Falls Under the Scope of Fatwas

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is the interpretation of dreams part of issuing fatwas?

Answer:
It is a type of fatwa (a scholarly legal ruling), but it is based on conjecture, and it is not a legal ruling, except for the vision of the Prophets (peace and blessings be upon them), for that is revelation. As for the vision of other than the Prophets, it is based on conjecture.

And he said to the one whom he knew would go free, "Mention me beforeوَقَالَ لِلَّذِي ظَنَّ أَنَّهُ نَاجٍ مِّنْهُمَا اذْكُرْنِي عِندَ
