In Islamic dream interpretation, certain disturbing or repetitive dreams can indicate the presence of black magic (Sihr) or influence of evil jinn (spirits). Today, we’ll explain four common types of dreams typically seen by people suffering from spiritual issues like black magic, jinn possession, or psychic attacks.
Seeing Animals in a Dream
If someone frequently sees animals like buffaloes, bulls, camels, lions, or other animals chasing or attacking them in a dream, this is one of the signs of black magic or jinn involvement. The dreamer often finds themselves running, screaming, or trying to escape.
Note: Occasional animal dreams are normal, but if this repeats, it can indicate spiritual harm.
Seeing Dangerous Creatures in a Dream
The second type of dream involves seeing snakes, lizards, scorpions, or other poisonous creatures following or attacking the dreamer. If a person sees a snake biting them or a lizard attacking them, this too may be a sign of black magic or jinn influence.
Important: Merely seeing a snake doesn’t always mean black magic, but if it’s chasing, attacking, or repeatedly appearing — it can be a warning sign.
Seeing Oneself Trapped in a Dream
The third common dream is seeing oneself trapped inside a room, alley, valley, jungle, or mountainous area without a way out. The person feels helpless, lost, and unable to escape. Such dreams often symbolize spiritual blockages caused by black magic.
Seeing Lost or Missing Objects in a Dream
Another frequent dream for people under black magic influence is seeing their belongings missing or lost in the dream, like losing shoes or personal items, and desperately searching for them but unable to find them. This is also considered a symptom of evil interference.
What to Do If You See Such Dreams
If you experience these types of dreams repeatedly:
-
Recite A’udhu Billahi Minash Shaitanir Rajeem (اعوذ باللہ من الشیطان الرجیم) three times upon waking.
-
Give charity (Sadaqah) immediately.
-
Pray for Allah’s protection against evil and harm.
