How to interpret a dream in which one sees his father angry with him?

The questioner : Shaykh, a person whose father has passed away sees him in his dreams, and on some nights he sees him angry with him?

The Shaykh : Do not pay attention to this, and I will give you a benefit that will put your minds at ease. Every disturbing dream is from Shaytan. Any dream, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, any dream you see that disturbs you is from Shaytan. So what is the way to get rid of it? The way, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded, is that you say: And when you wake up and you are in your bed, turn over to the other side. If it returns to you and disturbs you, get up, perform wudu, and pray. Do not tell anyone, because if you tell someone and they interpret it according to the dream, it will come true. For the dream is on the wing of a bird; if it is interpreted, it falls. And how many are those who ask about dreams they see in their sleep that disturb them, but we guide them to what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) guided them to, which is that he says, what? And he does not tell anyone, and he ignores it. This is Shaytan appearing in the form of his father, as if he is angry with him, to disturb him and upset his peace. The way to that is that you say: I seek refuge in Allah from the evil of Shaytan and from the evil of what I saw. And do not speak to anyone about it, and be distracted from it, and it will not harm you.

The questioner : ... charity.

The Shaykh : No, no charity and nothing else. Yes.
