Classical meaning
"This is a weak explanation. A stronger inter pretation is to say that one who sees God's Prophet (uwbp) in a dream has seen him in reality however his resemblance may appear. Whether the resemblance in the dream is known or not." In a separate commentary, Shaikh Al-Baqlani added: "What AI-Qiigi 'Iyag has said does not contradict what Imam Al-Nawa wi has said." This is because the first dream does not require interpretation, according to AI-Qagi 'Iyag. In the second type of dream, that is discussed in Imam Al-Nawawi's comments, one's dream does require interpretation or analysis. This is to mean that since no Satan can impersonate God's Prophet (uwbp), then whatever appearance he displays in one's dream is true. The meaning of God's prophet's saying: "For Satan cannot impersonate me," implies that since God's guardianship ('Isma) is inviolable, and since God's Prophet, upon whom be peace, is sacrosanct, then as he was protected during the time of delivering God's message to humanity, he is still protected by the same guardianship after God Almighty took him back to Himself. Thus, whoever sees God's Prophet (uwbp) in any appearance in a dream, it is as if has seen him in reality, regardless whether one sees him as a young man, or at the time of delivering his message, or as an old person. If one sees him looking old in a dream, it means peace. If one sees him looking young in a dream, it means war. If one sees him smiling in a dream, it means that one is truly emulating his traditions. Seeing God's Prophet (uwbp) in his known and recognized appear ance in a dream means that the one seeing the dream is a pious person, that his integrity is inviolable, and that his success is unquestionable. Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream frowning represents the ill state of the one seeing the dream.
Allah knows best. This is not a fatwa.
