al-Muqaddimah/Prelude
There’s Ahlām/Dreams I’ve had throughout my Life, which’ve had Paramount/Irreversible-Effects on me. The Sabab/Reason why: all of These-Ahlām were all True-Dreams.
The Maslahah/Purpose of al-Hulm/Dreaming
It’s wellknown, Islāmically, that al-Ahlām represent 3 Seperate-Ashyā’/Things:
1. al-Āyāt/Signs from Allah of Things to come, while one is Sleeping.
2. al-Waswās/Deception from ash-Shaytān/Satan, while one is Sleeping.
3. That which the Mind&Heart formulates, while one is Sleeping.
(al-Bukhārī&Muslim)
The Best-Way to comprehend Signs from Allah, via al-Hulm, is studying the Life of Yūsuf/Joseph (Peace be upon them). Because, out of all of al-Anbiyā’/Prophetic-Individuals (Peace be upon them altogether), it’s only Yūsuf whom received all of the Wahī/Tanzīl (Revelation) sent to them by Allah via al-Ahlām.
(Noble-Qur’ān: Chpt.12)
The Best-Way to comprehend Deception from ash-Shaytān is to study their Hasad/Envy against al-Insān/Humanity.
(Noble-Qur’ān: Chpt.30-39; Chpt.10, V.10-27; Chpt.113&114)
There’s Continuous-Research, as per how/why the Mind&Heart formulate al-Ahlām. There’s definitely an Undying-Connection between the Mind&Heart though. So, it makes Sense that the Mind&Heart fumction as One via al-Ahlām.

My Ahlām which completely confirmed for me my Destiny
I’ve noticed that there’s Ahlām I’ve had, which were so powerful that it’s been impossible to ignore/avoid. Without any of the Dreams I’m referting to: it’s highly probable that I wouldn’t even be a Muslim. I’ll be detailing Amthāl/Examples of what I mean.
Pre-Reversion
I distinctively remember Several-Ahlām, prior to me becoming a Muslim, about what I now know from The Noble-Qur’ān as Sūrat-uz-Zalzalah (Chapter of the Greatest-Earthquake). Before I reverted to al-Islām, I kept having Ahlām about all the Sifāt/Descriptions about Yawm-il-Qiyāmah (the Day-Of-Standing). When I finally became a Muslim: once I began learning The Qur’ān, especially learning Sūrat-az-Zalzalah, it immediately reminded me of the Multiple Earthquake-Dreams I used to have.

My Wellness/Mental-Health Lecturing via the United Kingdom
I remember having a Hulm/Dream about traveling through the RBCK (Royal Borough of Kensington&Chelsea), London, UK. It was Years later, when I was on my Way to lecture at Cambridge University, UK: my Lecturing at Cambridge University was predicated upon my Iftā/Research concerning at-Tajnīn (Jinn-Influence/Possession) Versus Mental-Illness. We were driving from Wokingham (where I was staying while in the UK) to Cambridge…we ended-up driving through London. Quite literally though: the Same-Places we drove past, I remembered that I saw such Places via my Hulm. I was completely in a State-Of-Awe, realizing that the Hulm I had actually materialized via Real-Life. The Irony is that this wasn’t even the 1st-Time I’d ever been to the UK. However, it was the Only UK-Exprrience I’d ever dreamt about.

My Return to KSA/Saudi Arabia
I first went to Makkah for al-Hajj/Pilgrimage back in 1426, AH/2005, CE. (Between 1426 & 1443, AH/2005 & 2021, CE) I’ve had a Combined-Total of 10 Different-Ahlām about what would end-up being my 2nd-Experience in Makkah. I even dreamt about Hotels we stayed at, Shopping-Areas we ventured to, etc. Everywhere we went that appeared in my Ahlām: Allah clearly wanted me to recall what I dreamt about it. Even the very Article I authored about my Return to Makkah: I literally had a Hulm about that as well.

The Tajnīn-Experience
I had a Hulm about a Fellow-Muslim (who I’m not even Cool with anymore) who had died. Myself & Another-Muslim (whom I’m actually Cool with) in the Dream were the Only-Persons capable/able to do the Janāzah (Islāmic-Burial Rites) for the Muslim who died. As soon as I woke from the Dream: I got a Random-Message from a Fellow-Muslim I don’t even know personally, from a Different-Part of the Planet I’ve never even been to before or yet, etc. asking me to help their Family deal with at-Tajnīn (Jinn-Influence/Demon-Possession). Ironically, this literally connects with the UK-Dream I had.

How/why are al-Ahlām important?!!!
#GoodQuestion…
…#Answer:
As Muslims, we know that there’s no more Wahī/Tanzīl being sent to Humanity, because Muhammad (Peace be upin them) stated: “There’s no Nabī (Prophetic-Individual) after me.”. In spite of such a Fact, Allah still allows Certain-Persons to be forewarned about Future-Happenings which’re either Positive-Things or Negative-Things. Afterall, Muhammad did in fact confirm that al-Hulm is 1/46 of an-Nubuwwah (Prophecy/Prophethood). And, ironically, al-Hulm is the Only-Sifah/Characteristic of an-Nubuwwah which Allah chose to not lift/remove from ad-Dunyā/the Mundane. At the Dame-Time: it’s actually clear to me, how/why Allah has allowed ash-Shaytān to even deceive via Dreaming. The Waswās of ash-Shaytān serves as a Fitnah/Test, to ensure that People don’t get the Idea that they’ve some sort of “Secret-Knowledge” of al-Ghayb (the Unknown/Unseen). Ironically, even in spite of the Waswās of ash-Shaytān: People still attempt to have “`Ilm/Knowledge” of al-Ghayb. It’s meant to keep People humble, so that we exclusively depend/rely upon Allah, anytime we dream something. Also, Muhammad stated: “If one dreams something which pleases them, then it’s a Sign from Allah. So, they should relay it.”.
(al-Bukhārī, Muslim, ad-Dārimī, at-Tirmidhī, Abū-Dāwūd, ibn-Mājah, Ahmad, Shākir, ibn Abī-Shaybah, at-Tabarānī)
So, what’s the Conclusion about al-Ahlām?!!!
#GoodQuestion…
…#Answer:
I, personally, from the Time I’ve become a Muslim: I’ve often paid Close-Attention to my Ahlām. Ever since I learned/knew of the “Deja Vu” Concept: it’s been something I’ve always taken seriously. “Deja Vu” actually has occured to be very often…more often than I’ve ever expected. So, for me: I play my Ahlām very closely. Allah has shown me, more than once, that al-Ahlām do come true: we just have to believe in Allah firstly.
