Thread: Islam & Dreams and Sleep (#1)

Dreams in Islam is a big subject and if I want to talk about it then I'm going to every thing then it's going to talk a lot of time and effort, that's why I've decided to talk about it in different threads and I'll take one subject at a time.



What happens when you sleep?


(Verse from The Quran)

[ ٱللَّهُ يَتَوَفَّى ٱلۡأَنفُسَ حِينَ مَوۡتِهَا وَٱلَّتِى لَمۡ تَمُتۡ فِى مَنَامِهَاۖ فَيُمۡسِكُ ٱلَّتِى قَضَىٰ عَلَيۡہَا ٱلۡمَوۡتَ وَيُرۡسِلُ ٱلۡأُخۡرَىٰٓ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ۬ مُّسَمًّىۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٲلِكَ لَأَيَـٰتٍ۬ لِّقَوۡمٍ۬ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ]

(translation):

(42. It is Allah Who takes away the souls at the time of their death, and those that die not during their sleep. He keeps those (souls) for which He has ordained death and sends the rest for a term appointed. Verily, in this are signs for a people who think deeply.)

(What does it mean?)

It means that when people die, Allah takes their souls and the same thing happens when people go to sleep and they meet and they talk to each other, and when then Allah sends back the souls of the livings and keeps the souls of the deads.

To be continued ...

For any questions feel free to ask.

This belongs in R/S, because it will be flamed.

I disagree, it'll get flamed more in R/S.

Yes, but at least in R/S people can't get banned for said flaming.

Which is why I'm leaving it here. This is about dreaming, flaming should warrant a ban.

mkk911, please continue, just stay out of R/S. Most people here don't believe in religion, but most are tolerant except for in R/S

Yea, I for one am very interested and I'm not religious in the least. But I would like to know just about what the Quran says about dreaming, without having to read it myself In fact I'd like to know what every 'main' religion thinks dreaming is, without having to drudge through debates about religion or long texts about religion hahaha

Hi there

It's so strange to find this site ... when I was at varsity I participated in a study where they were interviewing lucid dreamers. I thought I was abnormal before then. I must have collected many many dream journals over the years since then.

Anyhow ... there I go again ... i see a reference to kabbalah here and I watched a powerful video on it recently - insightful but also cleverly done! The linked sites make comments about zohar and dreaming and stuff.

Go have a sqizz: LINK REMOVED ... seems like a shameless advert plug, please speak to staff first next time. Consider this a warning, as it is against rules
