The Strategic Importance of Dreams and Visions in Islam
On true dreams as a source of guidance in Islam, and their place in the age of trials.
Islam distinguishes the true dream from the ordinary one and treats it as a residue of prophecy. Hosein sets out that tradition, covering the categories of dream, the conditions for trusting one, and the examples in the Qur’an and the sunnah, and argues that in an age he regards as hostile to religious knowledge, dreams and visions take on a strategic importance for those trying to keep their bearings.
