Does the dream of engagement preparations mean yes to the proposal?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
(1) I saw that I was going to my kitchen from my room and there was a lizard on wall and I also saw a small thin snake sitting on a plate of ours on the large water boiling steel dish/pot which is on our stove. But the stove was off. Snake was looking at me.
(2) A friend of my father went on sah roza (3 day tabligh jamah) when he came back he told my dad that in jamah he saw a dream in which he saw my dad eating an apple. Note: my dad also goes in jamah but was not completely religious.
(3) In a dream I saw that I was looking in my dresser mirror and in place of my face was a scary women face. This dream came before I started Shariah purdah/hijab.
(4) After the 3rd or 4th day of my istikharah for a proposal I got, I saw (may be after Fajr azan) that my engagement/mangani preparations were being performed. Does this mean yes to the proposal? Please interpret the above dreams.

Answer

(Fatwa: 192/163/N=1434)

(1) Read Surah al- Falaq and Surah al-Naas in the morning and evening.
(2) If your father shows interest in religious affairs and adopts religiousness then in-shaAllah, he will achieve both religious and worldly progress.
(3) It indicates towards the ugliness of immodesty, now Almighty Allah has given you taufiq of Shariah purdah, pay thanks to Allah for the same.
(4) It indicates that your proposal shall be accepted in-shaAllah soon, but as much dreams you have mentioned they does not seem to say anything about the proposal of marriage right now hence you should keep on doing istikharah regarding the proposal.
