The questioner : Honorable Shaykh, I often see my deceased father in a dream asking me for things, and this happens frequently with me and my siblings, even though he passed away when we were young. What is the interpretation of this, Honorable Shaykh?
The Shaykh : There is no action to be taken regarding a vision, and nothing is entailed by it. However, a vision may sometimes be a warning to the person, depending on the circumstances. But the rule is that Satan may present things to a person in his sleep, depicting disturbing things that cause him anxiety and sadness. The remedy for such a vision is for the person to spit to his left three times and say: “I seek refuge in Allah from the evil of Satan and from the evil of what I saw.” He should also turn over to the other side and not tell people what he saw. If he does these things, this vision will not harm him, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said.
The questioner : May Allah bless you.
