Summary/Abstract: Being a Qur’anic-Hadith category the interpretations of dreams is also a part of Islamic belief and practice. Dreams are not connected to people but to their meaning and as such they must not be a reason for repulsing people. Generally speaking, all dreams should be positively interpreted. Making up and magnifying dreams is a great sin. Bad dreamsshould not be narrated nor paid any attention to. Nice dreams are a gift that should be a cause for our gratitude and modesty instead of being arrogant and slightingly to other people. The only certain dream is a dream about the Prophet.
