Can a vision be repeated?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The chapter on when a she-camel is seen being slaughtered: Is there evidence for the repetition of a vision?
The Shaykh : In what respect?
The questioner : There is evidence for the repetition of the vision, yes. Every year he saw the vision twice.
The Shaykh : There is nothing else.
The questioner : Because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw this in Madinah, because he saw in Madinah that he would migrate.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : That I am migrating.
The Shaykh : Yes, he saw this in Makkah, which implies that he saw it in Makkah.
The questioner : And he saw a second vision, saying: "It is as if I am in a fortress of iron, and I see a she-camel being slaughtered." So the first fortress of iron was Madinah when he came out to his companions.
The Shaykh : Your vision can be repeated for confirmation.
