As Salaamu Alaikum. I had a dream and would like to have it interpreted Insha Allah. I was in a house with about 5 other people both male and female, I don’t think any were Muslim except for me. Something broke and 2 went to the basement to fix it, while down there, the house exploded and everyone died. In my dream we were re-created and taken back to the time before the explosion without clear memory of what was to happen. We were reading a book with stories and it became clear to me that the book was reminding me what was going to happen. I knew it was the Will of Allah SWT so I didn’t fight it or try to convince other people. Instead, when I recognised the time approaching for the explosion I rushed to make wudhu & make salah as I wanted to die in a state of salah. At the time of the explosion, nothing happened. I finished my prayer and went to see the other people. One man who had gone downstairs to fix the problem(as in the beginning) smiled at me and showed me his hand which was burnt. Can you please tell me what this means? May Allah SWT reward you for your time and effort.

As the sins and evils in the society are spreading it is getting difficult to protect iman and aamal. Every day new sins are coming up which cause disaster to society and is getting into marsh of deviation. The only way for protection is to strengthen iman and do good deeds. The abovementioned dream indicates that it is very much necessary to protect oneself from sins, do good deeds along with correct and strong beliefs. A spark of sin is enough to burn down the iman and good deeds:
أللھم احفظنا من المعاصي والمنکرات و من شرور أنفسنا و سیئات أعمالنا
Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
Darul Ifta,
