Note: Tips To Have Special Dreams From Allah The Almighty

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Several minutes around Tahajjud time, I woke up from a dream in which I saw a friend, whose identity I won't specify, giving me a quick tour of a cute house which she supposedly designed. She then led me to a brightly lit chamber with many veils and hijabs of different styles and colors on display, later giving me a hijab or khimar that had a part which could be used as a niqab. Afterwards we found ourselves in a car where I was steering the wheel and she was somewhat guiding me, eagerly warning me to avoid the obstacles along the road. Alhamdulillah I take that as a sign from Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala that she's someone who shares the same goals as I do or she can be trusted, and she's one of those who are concerned about me, behind the scenes hoping I stay away from doing something that could only lead to regret.
In contrast, the image of another woman, a niqabi whom I'm not very acquainted with, appeared in an unforgettable dream where she and her kids were flying with us in an airplane. For some weird reason she angrily bit my face and I was caught off guard by her dreadful act of aggression. I'm guessing that was a warning from Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala for me to keep my distance from her since she probably talked badly about me in the past, has the potential to gossip, is jealous of me, or she doubts my reliability. In any case that could explain why I've lost interest in trying to know her in a more personal level after observing how abrupt and standoffish her text messages are.
Dreams don't occur without a reason, especially if they are lucid and easy to remember. The closer you are to Allah the Most Merciful and the more truthful you are as a striving Muslim, the higher the chances you get to receive special dreams with significant meanings, signs and warnings.
To be among those whom Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala blesses with good dreams:
1] Maintain Taqwa and a strong connection with Allah the Almighty.
2] Strive to be honest and trustworthy. Shun evil speech like backbiting and lying deliberately.
3] Choose your squad of trusted friends carefully. Focus on quality, not quantity.
4] Say the Adhkaar and recite the Surahs which are recommended to be recited before sleeping, particularly Ayatul Kursi and Surah Al-Mulk.
5] Sleep with wudhu/ablution as much as you can, and preferably facing towards the Qiblah or on your right side. Never sleep on your stomach if possible.
6] Think of positive thoughts and engage in productive self-reflection prior to sleeping.
7] Look forward to meeting Allah the Most Kind, in case your soul returns to Allah while you're asleep, with the niyyah/intention to pray Tahajjud/Qiyaam Al-Layl and Fajr prayer on time.

📖 Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "When one of you sees a dream that he likes, it is from Allah, so let him praise Allah for it and speak about it. When one of you sees something else which he dislikes, it is from shaytan so let him seek refuge from its evil and not mention it to anyone. It will not harm him."

📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "When the end of time approaches (before the Day of Judgment), the dream of a believer can hardly be false. The dream of a believer is one of forty-six parts of prophecy and whatever is from prophecy cannot be false."
In another narration, the Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The most truthful of you are those with the truest dreams. There are three types of vision (dream). The righteous vision is glad tidings from Allah, the distressful vision (nightmare) is from shaytan, and the vision arising from oneself (from one's nafs or frequent thoughts). If one of you sees something that he dislikes, let him stand to pray and not speak to people about it."
