The science of interpreting visions is a noble science, akin to issuing fatwas. Only someone with knowledge and expertise should undertake it. The more righteous and pious the dreamer and the interpreter, the truer the vision and the more accurate the interpretation, unlike soothsayers and astrologers who rely on devils. Therefore, only a just person of sound religious practice should be consulted regarding visions.
