The Real Reason Behind Forgetting Dreams — and How to Get Them Back

You used to remember your dreams clearly. Then you started ruqyah or the right treatment — and everything began to fade away? In the Shaykh's explanation, this is no coincidence — it is planned. Learn why, and what to do, in sha Allah.

What Happens, and Who Causes It?

• The moment you decide to go to a raqi or begin the right program, you suffer severe forgetfulness in dreams — nothing is remembered
• Along with this, mistakes and distraction increase even in salah and the adhkar

The cause (Wallahu a'lam): the malicious 'arid inside the body — in most cases it takes position in the head; it is cunning and skilled in magic. The Shaykh says that in most cases this is a Shaytan of hasad, and at the same time has the nature of a magician. Even if it is elsewhere, it rises to the head as soon as it senses danger.

Why Are Dreams Specifically Erased?

Because the key to diagnosis and treatment lies hidden in dreams — especially in dreams during a ruqyah program.

A correct tashkhis (diagnosis) rests on the symptoms and on dreams seen repeatedly. The 'arid knows this.

So it clouds your memory — so that you can never identify the right treatment.

In other words, forgetting dreams is itself a major sign — that something inside wants to block the treatment, Wallahu a'lam.

The Remedy — Dukhan Bakhur, 7 Days

1. Mix lote tree leaves (sidr) and rue leaves (sazab) well together.
2. Recite Surah Ad-Dukhan over the mixture — 1, 2 or 3 times
3. Take the bakhur (smoke) of that mixture to your head and face — 1-2 minutes, inhaling gently; not too much.
4. Every day — for 1 week, in sha Allah.

Tawakkul (reliance on Allah) comes first, the means come after — the Shaykh reminds us of this again and again.

What to Listen to Alongside

Along with the bakhur, the Shaykh has said to listen to "Ruqyat al-Inzal" — the ruqyah that brings the 'arid down from the head, drawing it out through the feet, in sha Allah.

When these two go together — everything will gradually begin to become clear, you will begin to remember your dreams, and you will find relief from that 'arid in the head, in sha Allah.

As soon as dreams return, write them down — they are the key to diagnosing your condition.
