The Question
Question:
Assalamu Alaikum,
Sheikh.
I dreamed that my husband and I had finished marital relations, and I poured water into a bathtub so that we could perform the ritual bath (ghusl). While looking at the water, I noticed a lizard in it. Suddenly, my former husband appeared, picked up the lizard, and threw it onto my body.
Please, what is
the Islamic interpretation of this dream? May Allah reward you with goodness.
The
Answer
Wa
Alaikumussalam wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.
May Allah grant
you peace of mind and protect you from fear, distress, and harm.
Dear sister, it is
important to understand that we cannot establish a definite
interpretation of this dream from the details provided alone. Seeing a
lizard in a dream does not prove that you have an enemy, that someone is
practising magic against you, or that your former husband intends to cause
problems in your present life.
Likewise, the
dream is not evidence that your former husband is doing anything harmful to you
in reality.
1.
What Does This Dream Mean in Islam?
Islam teaches that
dreams can have different origins. Some may be good dreams, others may be
disturbing dreams, and some may reflect a person's thoughts and experiences.
The Prophet
Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) explained the different categories
of dreams in authentic narrations, including those recorded in Sahih Muslim,
Hadith 2263.
Therefore, we
should not claim that every dream contains a hidden message or predicts
something that will happen in the future.
Although the
appearance of your former husband and the lizard may have felt frightening,
there is no reliable basis for concluding that the dream predicts conflict,
indicates witchcraft, or reveals another person's intentions.
2.
What Should You Do If the Dream Frightens You?
The Prophet
Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) taught Muslims how to respond to
unpleasant dreams.
You may follow
these practices:
1.
Seek Allah's protection from Satan and from the evil associated with
what you saw.
2.
Blow lightly to your left three times, as described in the authentic
narrations concerning disturbing dreams.
3.
Turn onto your other side if you wish.
4.
Avoid dwelling on the dream or allowing it to create unnecessary fear
and suspicion.
5.
Maintain your regular supplications and remembrance of Allah.
These teachings
are reported in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim.
3.
Should You Be Worried About Your Former Husband?
You should not
accuse your former husband of wrongdoing merely because he appeared in your
dream.
If there are
genuine difficulties or concerns involving him in your waking life, address
them according to the actual circumstances and available evidence. If there are
no such concerns, there is no reason to assume that the dream indicates a
problem.
Your peace of mind
is important, and you should not let an uncertain dream become a source of
unnecessary anxiety.
4.
Maintain Your Daily Islamic Supplications
Continue observing
your daily prayers and reciting the supplications recommended in Islam. You may
also recite Ayat al-Kursi and Surah Al-Ikhlas, Al-Falaq, and An-Nas as part of
your regular remembrance of Allah.
Do these acts of
worship to seek Allah's protection and draw closer to Him, not because the
dream proves that you are under a spiritual attack.
Conclusion
Dear sister, there
is no sound basis for concluding that your dream means your former husband
wants to harm you, that someone has practised magic against you, or that you
are affected by envy.
Do not be
frightened or build accusations and decisions upon the dream alone. Seek
Allah's protection, maintain your supplications, and judge real-life situations
using evidence rather than dreams.
May Allah grant
you tranquillity, protect you from harm, and bless you with peace and
well-being.
