Seeing a deceased person in a dream inviting one to go with them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: It is widespread among many common people that if a sleeping person sees a deceased person in his dream, and that deceased person invites him in the dream to go with him, then that is a sign that his time of death is near. Is there a basis for this in the Shari'ah?

Answer:
Allah knows best. We ask the interpreters of dreams. Yes.
