I normally don’t pay attention to what I dream about. I rarely have dreams anyway. But considering my current situation (I am expecting) & the feeling I got after having this dream & now thanks to Mr. Google I am a little concerned.
I will ask the Mr. to give some sadqa on his way back from work but I was wondering if anyone could shed some more light on the meaning that I read online.
I am not going to go into the details of my dream because in Islam you are not supposed to share your bad dreams but in simple words I saw lightning (huge, scary, ugly bang) no one was harmed & then black funnel clouds forming vicious tornadoes all at once. These black tornadoes had a demonic feel to them. Again despite feeling just a tad bit fearful in the dream no one was harmed. These tornadoes died as quickly as they had formed in front of me & there was a calm feeling after that.
This might have been near Fajr time. I woke up right away but was not in a scared state. The only thought my sleepy mind had was I need to work on my namaaz & then I went back to sleep. Lately I haven’t been doing great with my salaat. I do wudhu couple of times a day but namaz rarely happens after that.
This morning my silly self decided to Google the meaning of lightning & tornadoes in Islam. I am not too sure I like the interpretations.
Lightning without rain: impending disaster
Tornadoes: death & destruction
Source. Myislamicdream.com. How accurate is this stuff? Does anyone here know that this is in fact the meaning of seeing such things?
I know & understand that dreams don’t always have to have a meaning but I do know that sometimes they do have a meaning & crap does happen after seeing things with bad meanings. Sometimes it won’t happen right away but it does happen.
And before anyone mentions that my hormones are at work. Then no, I know the difference between the "hormones inducing scary dreams" that some pregnant women get. As embarrassing as it sounds I have had a few of those a month back but ironically as scared I was in the dream. When I woke up I was all fine & I never gave it a second thought.
Above mentioned stuff was on a different level. In the dream I felt imminent danger but also knew things were in control & no harm will come. That matter of fact "sukoon" during & after the dream is what's gotten me a little concerned.
Jazak Allah Khair Iraj. Ayat ul Kursi is my best friend. I read it a lot for different things I do during the day. But I wasn't reading it for the baby.
I often read "Ya Salamo" just for the baby. Will try to read it more often thinking of the baby. Can you tell me the significance of reading Surah Ikhlas?
respected sister i ve no idea of dream..but i would say...ignore your dream.....just sadqa dey dein...n recite Quran as much as you can...and surah falaq surah nas...rest not necessary everyone has the same meaning of dream as you mentioned...i believe only Allah knows...you just take care of yourself...keep reciting darood as well..
may Allah protect you n your baby from all kind of evil..may you be blessed with healthy and lovely baby Ameen
Going to sleep in Wuzu and reciting Surah Al-Faitha, the four Quls and Ayat-ul-Qursi before going to sleep should help you against such dreams and protect you from Shaitaan and his followers.
Sheeda except for Surah Al Fateha. I already do the rest. Dua before sleeping, first Kalima, Ayat ul Kursi followed by the four Quls. I have been doing this since I was 16. No matter how tired I am at night or whether I am sleeping in a hotel or a different bed. I just can’t seem to fall asleep if I skip reading all of this.
Another thing to do in case of nightmares is to dry spit over your left shoulder three times and recite auzubillahi min ashaytaanirajeem. Also giving sadaqa in these cases is always good.
I agree. I am not much into interpretation but sometimes you just get this uncomfortable feeling long after having the dream. Alhumdulillah I am feeling fine today. Not uncomfortable as I was yesterday when I opened this thread. Ultimately if something is to happen it will happen. If not then not. For all it is, it was a reminder to work on my Namaaz.
