The Categories of Visions and Their Ruling

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says that she has been afflicted with the evil eye for a long time, and she has continued with treatment through ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), oil, and honey, and she has sought reward from Allah. She saw a vision and it was interpreted as being a sign that she is well, and that this is a trial, so be patient, for it will be better for you. Honorable Shaykh, regarding supplication in such misfortunes, and these visions that I saw, do they indicate anything?

Answer:
Visions are of three types: some are true, some are the ramblings of dreams, and some are from Shaytan. These three categories are from Shaytan to confuse the Muslim. The ramblings of dreams have no reality; for example, a person thinks about something before sleeping, and then when he sleeps, that thing appears to him. These are the ramblings of dreams. The third is the true vision, the genuine vision, and this is one of the good omens, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us; it is one of the good omens. Yes.
