What is the legal interpretation of seeing auspicious dreams whose outcomes are completely contrary to their interpretations?
The interpretation of dreams is not absolute; rather, it varies according to circumstances and individuals, and it is not available to everyone. Knowledge of dream interpretation does not come from books, such as those by Ibn Sirin, but rather through understanding circumstances, times, sagacity, and knowledge of meanings. The loss of sustenance or other calamities does not indicate that a person lacks standing with Allah, for Allah may test His believing servants, as stated in His exalted قول (قوله تعالى): "And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient," and His قول (قوله): "You will surely be tested in your possessions and yourselves."
