Remembering Allah

If a person sees in his dream that he remembers Allah and worships Him, this is interpreted as indicating that he will be delivered from the evil of his enemies, the gates of goodness will be opened to him, he will be secure from afflictions, and difficult matters will be made easy for him.

If a person sees in his dream that he says, “There is no deity but Allah,” this signifies that he will attain abundance and comfort shortly, and that his entire life will pass without experiencing distress.

To see oneself saying in a dream, “There is no power and no strength except through Allah,” indicates that one’s wealth will increase and that all of it is under the protection of Allah.

According to the interpretation of Ibn Kathir: Remembering Allah in a dream is always interpreted as goodness and blessing. To recite the tasbih in a cave in a dream, to remember Allah, or to hear others remembering Him, signifies the abundance of blessing and goodness in that place; and to see oneself remembering Allah in an assembly is interpreted as indicating that the person will be of benefit to the Muslims.

According to the interpretation of Imam al-Nabulsi: If a person remembers Allah in his dream, this denotes attaining mercy and forgiveness, receiving honour, and being delivered from the torment of the grave.

To remember Allah by one of His thousand and one names in a dream, or to see and hear Him being remembered thus, is interpreted according to the indication of that name. For example, to hear Allah being remembered by His name al-Qahhar signifies that the enemies of the one who hears it will be destroyed and that he will be secure from the evil of Satan.

To remember Allah collectively in congregation among a group signifies conversing with, or drawing near to, a company of the saints and the great men of Islam, and benefiting from the service of the community.

If a person sees in his dream that, although he is present at a gathering of remembrance, he does not join in the remembrance performed there and remains merely a spectator, this is interpreted as not being very auspicious for that person. For he has been deprived of the mercy that descends upon the people of remembrance.

If a person who is upright in his remembrance speaks words concerning wisdom in his dream, this denotes deliverance from sorrow and grief, recovery from illness, release from debt and distress, victory over an unjust person, and security from his evil.

To feel in a dream that one has seen Allah, the Exalted: This signifies the completeness of one’s faith.

According to the Prophet Daniel, it gives strength to those who possess faith.

According to Ibn Sirin, the one who sees this has earned Paradise. It is also a sign of honour and chastity.

To see Allah in a dream signifies attaining comfort, being delivered from troubles, and the necessity of calling other people to the path of truth.

With the right perspective, it can signify restoring balance, recovery, and developing a new understanding.

Uncertainty, indecision, or a tendency to take on excessive burden may be observed.

In the interpretation, the themes of work and responsibility, spiritual signs, home and environment, success and reputation, the emotional tone in the dream, and how the symbol concludes in the dream should be evaluated together.
