Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

There is no need to be perplexed over the dream. One should also take caution and refrain from narrating the dream to others. In future, merely spit lightly towards your left shoulder and recite:

أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم 

Transliteration: A’uthu Billahi Mina Ash-Shaytaanir Rajeem

Translation: I seek refuge with Allah from the accursed Shaytan

أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ غَضَبِهِ وَعِقَابِهِ وَشَرِّ عِبَادِهِ وَمِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَأَنْ يَحْضُرُونَ 

Transliteration: A’uthu Bi Kalimatillahit Taammati Min Gadhabihi Wa ‘Iqaabihi Wa Sharri ‘Ibaadihi Wa Min Hamazaatish Shayaateen Wa Ayy Yahdhuroon.

Translation: I seek refuge with His complete words from His wrath, His punishment, the evil ones amongst his servants, and from the whispers of Shaytaan. And I seek protection from (these) coming to me.

When seeing a bad dream it is advisable to give some Sadaqah (charity). 

Furthermore, dreams can be visualized as a person driving down the highway where there are many different types of cars and sceneries. The person does not stop to examine every car or watch every scenery. He is concerned about arriving at his destination and continues to move on. Similarly, don’t ponder too much over your dreams and focus on the real objectives of life.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

 صحيح مسلم (4/ 1771)

 حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ، وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، جَمِيعًا عَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ – وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ أَبِي عُمَرَ – حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ أَرَى الرُّؤْيَا أُعْرَى مِنْهَا، غَيْرَ أَنِّي لَا أُزَمَّلُ، حَتَّى لَقِيتُ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «الرُّؤْيَا مِنَ اللهِ، وَالْحُلْمُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، فَإِذَا حَلَمَ أَحَدُكُمْ حُلْمًا يَكْرَهُهُ فَلْيَنْفُثْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ ثَلَاثًا، وَلْيَتَعَوَّذْ بِاللهِ مِنْ شَرِّهَا، فَإِنَّهَا لَنْ تَضُرَّهُ

 سنن الترمذي ت بشار (5/ 429)

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: إِذَا فَزِعَ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي النَّوْمِ فَلْيَقُلْ: أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ غَضَبِهِ وَعِقَابِهِ وَشَرِّ عِبَادِهِ، وَمِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَأَنْ يَحْضُرُونِ فَإِنَّهَا لَنْ تَضُرَّهُ. فَكَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، يُلَقِّنُهَا مَنْ بَلَغَ مِنْ وَلَدِهِ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ مِنْهُمْ كَتَبَهَا فِي صَكٍّ ثُمَّ عَلَّقَهَا فِي عُنُقِهِ.
