Enjoining good

Classical interpretations

If a person sees himself enjoin people to good in a dream, saying perform the prayer, fast, pronounce the declaration of faith, and recite the Qur'an, it signifies faith in Allah Most High and fulfilling His due. By contrast, seeing oneself command evil in a dream signifies hypocrisy and strife, and corruption in religion.

Seeing oneself pour away raki and wine, break musical instruments, and throw away backgammon and playing cards signifies faith and good deeds, sincerity in religion, and truthfulness. His holiness Ibn Sirin said: Seeing oneself command and domineer in some matter one wishes is a sign of being jealous of one's brothers.

Seeing oneself order someone to sell one wheat signifies lawful provision. Kirmani said: Seeing oneself command and forbid according to the rulings of the Sharia is goodness itself. Commanding something contrary to the Sharia, however, is not good. A person who sees himself commanded to do something good will attain goodness and blessing.
