Book Review: The Dreamer’s Handbook


The Dreamer’s Handbook: Sleep Etiquettes & Dream Interpretation In Light of the Sunnah

From the Inevitable Journey Series Book 5 compiled and written by Dr. Muhammad Mustafa al-Jibaaly and published by al-Kitab & as-Sunnah Publishing

My sister-in-law left some of her books with my wife, and me being the avid reader that I am, I immediately picked this one out of the stack. For one I knew the author personally when we both lived in Arlington, TX. At that time he had just finished the manuscript for Funerals, Regulations and Exhortations and was reviewing it in a class at Center Street Masjid. It is an excellent work.

This book is about 331 pages and contains an enormous amount of references and information regarding the issue of dreams and dream interpretation based on the Book and the Sunnah. He compiles a wealth of quotes and statements of the people of knowledge. This is a great reference book that may take a moment to ingest but is well worth the time.
