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

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,
Burhan
