Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks: Is it permissible to interpret dreams and believe in their interpretation, given that many shaykhs have appeared in various places interpreting dreams?

Answer:
Do not let dreams occupy you. Most dreams, most dreams are from Shaytan and are confused dreams. They are not true dreams. True dreams are rare and few. Do not let these matters occupy you. This is a new thing among people now. It is a new thing among people now, causing fear and terror.
Everyone who sees a vision takes an interest in it, goes to ask, and listens to the interpretation of people's dreams, occupying people with these matters.
This was not known among the Muslims. This is something new. Something new that was not known among the Muslims.
Occupying oneself with dreams to this extent, and taking an interest in them to this extent, was not known. So do not pay attention to these matters. Yes.
