Question

I have had many dreams of my aunt that passed away about two years ago(she was not muslim) and I was wanting to know if this means anything. Could you please clarify what it means if you dream of anyone who has died, if you visit them or they visit you in the dream.

Answer

Seeing dreams of the deceased is simply to remind one of death and to make the necessary preparations for it.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
