Question

There was a gathering of mostly males, and a few females, we were all sitting doing dhikr of Allah loudly, and waiting for a special sheikh to come, when he arrived we all increased our dhikr, increased in eman, and I was experiencing something I had never experienced before, but then more women joined the gathering, and they started to make lots of noise, so the men got up and left, and I was left. Does this dream signify anything?

Answer

Dreams are of different types.
1. Pious
2. Reflection of the mind
3. Shaitaani
Pious and religious dreams are from Allah and are true. The dream referred to in the details is a pious one. It indicates zikr invoking the mercy of Allah which decreases upon any interruption.
