The Ruling on Interpreting Dreams
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: My cousin interprets dreams, even though he has only obtained a high school diploma, and he has no religious knowledge other than what he acquires for himself. What is the ruling on interpreting dreams in our present time?
Answer:
Interpreting dreams, if it is done by a trustworthy person who has experience and possesses insight, is permissible. It is not a condition that he have studied it. This is something Allah places in some people by way of insight, intelligence, and precision in deduction. This is a quality Allah grants to some people, and not everyone interprets dreams. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
