Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: What is your opinion on the spread of the phenomenon of interpreting dreams, and broadcasting that live on television, and other such things?

Answer:
This is not permissible because it causes doubts and whispers among people. The interpretation of a dream is not certain; it is merely a prediction by the interpreter, not a matter of certainty. So how can it be announced to the people? This is not appropriate, especially since some have made it a profession, taking money for it, or announcing it to the people in the press, newspapers, television, or radio. They announce this to the people seeking fame and seeking fame among the people in this work. In any case, this is an inappropriate act and should not be done. But if a person comes to you and says, "I saw such and such," and you are able to interpret it for him, interpret it for him between you and him. As for announcing this to the people, that is an inappropriate matter. Yes.
