Can Ibn Sirin's book be relied upon for interpreting dreams?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
It is not possible to definitively attribute the book of dream interpretation to Ibn Sirin, as there is no indication of this in his biography, despite his fame for interpreting dreams. Even if the attribution were correct, it cannot be relied upon entirely, because dream interpretation varies with time, place, and circumstance. A qualified person may use it and other books of interpretation for reference.
