What is the ruling on interpreting dreams, doing so excessively, and giving it much attention?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: What is the ruling on interpreting dreams, doing so excessively, and giving it much attention?

Answer:
The one who has the qualification to interpret dreams interprets them when there is a need. He does not make it a profession or earn a living from it, or open a shop or a website or a station for dream interpretation; this is not permissible. He does not earn a living from it. But if Allah has given him knowledge in interpreting dreams, and there is a need for it, there is nothing wrong with it, and if the dream is good, he interprets it. Yes.
