Dreams are the images, emotions, ideas, and sensations that come into our mind during some certain stages of sleep.

The study of dreams is known as oneirology. Science has proven that all type of mammals dream. Develop the habit of Quran Recitation and you will know more about what Islam says about Dreams.

Dreams create a connection with the human subconscious. They range from normal and ordinary to bizarre and overly surreal. Dreams are of different nature, they can be exciting, magical, frightening, or adventurous. Most of the people are of the view that knowledge can be gained through dreams. Dreams can give you an opinion but not any valid information. It might include expectations and warnings.

It is also said that you must not tell your dreams to any person because of Satan. Once the Holy Prophet(P.B.U.H) told his dreams to all his companions, they all moved to Mecca. This dream did not come true and they all head back to Hudaybiyyah. After this incident, Almighty Allah sent down the verses:

“Allah confirms that dream of the Messenger is true. When the determined time of Allah comes, you all enter Al-Masjid-al-Haram, having your heads shaved or having your haircut, within security. He know what you do not before it, he granted you a victory.” (Surah-Al-Fath).Therefore, it is not wise to trust the dream, because they can be misleading. Because of this reason, Allah has sent down the verses for guidance of human beings.
