Should a mother give charity on behalf of her deceased family members if they ask her for water in a dream?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The interpretation of seeing someone asking for water in a dream indicates the deceased's need for what benefits them from the living, such as supplication (du'a) and the settlement of debts. These visions serve as a reminder to the living of the necessity to settle their debts, free themselves from the claims of those who have rights over them, be diligent in righteous deeds, and not neglect the deceased's need for prayers for mercy and forgiveness.
