Dream is a phenomenon come into existence with the fi rst man and attracts
people from ancient times. Although it was the subject of researches of
early times, the biological content, functioning and causality of dreams could
not be completely understood. Dream is divided into three types as divine, satanic
and physiological i n Islamic literature. 1. Divine dream: It is a dream that
shown by Allah to his servants. This dream is also called; a loyal dream, a good
dream, mubessirat/evangelist. 2. Satanic dream: These are complex dreams
that result from delusions of Satan. Such dreams are also called, hulüm, edğâsü
ahlâm and a liar’s dream. 3. Psychological dream: These are dreamed by the
infl uence of imagination and illusion and outer effects during the sleeping and daily routines. These could be also called subconscious dreams. The prophets’
dreams are evidence because they have a divine inspiration quality and also the
people who believe in Allah must accept these dreams. The dreams of anyone
apart from the Prophets are not evidence in fiqh because the evidences which
base on the provisions must be far from any subjectivity, they must be objective
and regular and must be measured by scholarly principles.
Hence it could not be exactly judged that according to a dream which
cannot been offered with the scholarly principles and all the time is open to
the effect of satan or physiological or psychological impact. And also it could
not been established rules on these kinds of dreams. For the subjects which are
not related with the base of religion and provision we can benefi t from the encouraging
and telling good news dreams. Distracting and scary dreams should
not be taken into consideration. This practice known as “İstihâre” is based on a
dream to be believed. However istihare is a pray to Allah for anything which is
legitimate and permissible decided after the necessary research and consultation,
if it is benefi cent, pray for Allah to simplify and predestine or if not, pray
for Allah to not predestine. The “İstihâre” does not mean a sign, inspiration and
dream coming from Allah. Instead, it is a prayer after doing necessary research
and consultation.
Rüya insanla birlikte var olan ve ilk çağlardan itibaren insanın dikkatini çeken
bir olgudur. Fakat ilk çağlardan beri hakkında çalışmalar yapılmasına rağmen rüyanın,
biyolojik içeriği, işleyişi ve amaçları tam olarak anlaşılamamıştır. Hz. Peygamber
(s.a.s.)’in bir hadisinden hareketle rüyalar, genel olarak, rahmânî, şeytânî ve nefsânî
olmak üzere üçe ayrılabilir. Peygamberlerin gördüğü rüyalar vahiy mahiyetinde olduğu
için delildir. Peygamberlerin dışındaki kimselerin rüyası ise, delil değildir. Çünkü
hükümlerin dayandığı delillerin, her türlü sübjektifl ikten uzak, objektif ve kurallı
(munzabıt) olması; ilmî kriterlerle ölçülebilmesi gerekir. Dinin esası ve ahkâmla ilgili
olmayan konularda, müjdeleyici, teşvik edici rüyalardan yararlanılabilir. Huzursuzluk
veren, korkunç rüyalara ise itibar edilmemelidir. İstihâre, gerekli araştırma ve istişâreyi
yaptıktan sonra karar verilen meşrû ve mubah bir işin, hayırlı ise kolaylaştırıp nasip
etmesi, değilse nasip etmemesi için Allâh’a dua etmektir.
