Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.  (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

 

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Respected Brother,

I like to Rushullah Salla -a-aslam in the dream. I read lot of books. If I practice their formul, I am able to see. I know it is hard. When I can see Rushullah salla-a-aslam. If I can see, I will go to perform haZZ. I know it difficult question. My life is miserable. I want to get relieve. If you have time, pls say some thing. I need God compassion. I think, I am the sinfull person in the whole world.

That's why God is giving me punishment.

Thanks for your time.

Answer:

 

See Prophet in dream

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person,  no grave, no prophet,  no imam,  no dai,  nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

My beloved brother in Islam,  it is indeed a condition of faith to believe that Prophet Mohamed (saws) was indeed the Last and Final Messenger of Allah;  but it is not necessary to see him!  What is important is that every believer,  who sincerely fears Allah and the Last Day,  believes in Prophet Mohamed (saws),  follows his Sunnah,  obeys his guidance, commands,  and teachings,  and loves him.  

 

Besides,  it is not a condition that one ‘has’ to see the Prophet (saws) in his dream to go to the obligatory pilgrimage of Hajj;  and it does not behove a believer to make such conditions by himself! 

 

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 9.122         Narrated by Abu Huraira

I heard the Prophet (saws) saying, "Whoever sees me in a dream will see me in his wakefulness, for Satan cannot imitate me in shape."

 

It is in the Power and Domain of Allah Subhanah Alone to show Prophet Mohamed (saws) in a dream to anyone He Wills and Pleases.   Indeed,  it would be a huge and magnanimous honor for any believer to see the Messenger of Allah (saws) in his dreams;  and that honor is given by Allah Subhanah Alone to whomever He Wills and Pleases.

 

Your Statement: I need God compassion. I think, I am the sinfull person in the whole world.  That's why God is giving me punishment.

There is not a thing in the universe which is independent or does not need the Merciful Lord’s Compassion and Mercy;  and it is indeed the Compassion and Mercy of the Lord which encompasses everything in existence.   And especially those whom Allah Subhanah,  in His Sublime and Infinite Mercy,  has honored and guided to the Straight Path of Islam are never ever left out of His Compassion and Grace! 

 

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 39 Surah Zumur verses 53-54:(O Prophet) say: “O My servants who have wronged their own souls….Do not despair of Allah’s Mercy!  Surely,  Allah forgives all sins.   He indeed is the All Forgiving,  All Merciful.   Return to your Lord and submit to Him before the scourge overtakes you;  for then you may get no help from anywhere.”

 

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah Anaam verse 54:When those come to you who believe in Our Signs,  say: "Peace be on you!  Your Lord had inscribed for Himself (the rule of) Mercy.  Verily if any of you did evil in ignorance,  and thereafter repented and amended (his conduct),  Lo! He is Oft-Forgiving,  Most Merciful."

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me.  Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your Brother in Islam,
