The Early Muslim Tradition of Dream Interpretation

The Early Muslim Tradition of Dream InterpretationExplores dream interpretation among the early Muslims, who saw dreams as a type of prophecy. Reportedly, the prophet Muhammad told his followers that after he was gone prophecy would come only through "true dreams." Based on this and other statements, early Muslims created what might be called a theology of dreams. Dreams were regarded as an important means used by God to guide the faithful, especially after the cessation of Koranic revelation.
