The question

What happens to the human soul during sleep, and how does it leave the body and go to the world of Barzakh, and how are dreams formed, knowing that a righteous vision is from God and a dream is from Satan, and is there a scientific aspect that does not contradict the religious position on this?

The answer

Thank you for contacting us. We inform you that explaining the subject of the soul from a scientific perspective is not within our purview; you may consult specialists in this field. Many matters concerning the soul are hidden from humans, as Allah Almighty said: "And they ask you, [O Muhammad], about the soul. Say, 'The soul is of the affair of my Lord. And you have not been given of knowledge except a little.'" For more information, please refer to Fatwas no. 36702 and 38180.
