What does my dream of leading prayers with a deceased person mean?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
As-Salaamu-Alaikum-Wa-Rahmatulla-Hi-Wa-Barakaatuhu!!! Dear Mufti Saahab, May Allah(SWT) bless you with the best for the work you are doing. Few days ago a very pious person passed away in our town. He was not a Aalim or Haafeez but a Daaiee who was involved very much in the work of Daawaah. I wasn’t there in my town during that time neither was I close to this person during his hayaat but, use to see him often while going and coming from prayers. Coming to the point. I with my family and my brother-in-law were discussing about this person after which we went to sleep. I dreamt about the person who passed away that “It is a time for prayers (Don’t remember which prayer but, I feel Magrib) and this person is asking me to lead the prayers and upon his saying I led the prayers and I started reciting aayaahs (Qiraat) and I remember that I was stopping after each aayaah and was very slow in recitation (Don’t remember which aayaahs). This person whom I am talking about, in the state of Salaah started reading the Aayaahs louder and little faster and I taught he is prompting me and even I started reciting it fast. Please interpret this dream of mine (Jazaakumullah).

The dream is an indication that you should also be religious and mindful of salah, and you should also be dayee (inviter) like him.
