Referring to the exams, who remembered or even heard stories about dreams to foresee the exam questions? I remember an excellent friend who cannot understand the Arabic subject. When the exams were at doors, he was very worried about it. Once in night he dreamt of his Arabic teacher beside the school in his car, and he noticed the car window was opened and an envelope is on the seat on which "Arabic subject exam questions" is written. So, he opened the envelope quickly but leaved it because he was scared and ran away. Here I interfered to interpret the dream (as the psychologists do): "the dream in general reflects your desire to pass the exam but your subconscious tried to solve this dilemma by fabricating this dream. And because you are a noble person your conscious mind refused this guilt. As for the open window it's ....." here he interrupted me saying "hold on. I didn't continue my dream. The next night I saw the same dream and details. But this time I opened the envelope and read 3 out of 7 questions; however, I returned the document back because I panicked. And the weird thing that the real exam consisted of 7 questions and the 3 questions I read was there. What about that?" Here I could not answer him (it's a different situation) but I told him that his dream classified as a foreseen dream as we told by Mohammed the Prophet (PBUH) in Hadith: "dream is one of the forty-six parts of prophecy" and "Nothing Left of Prophethood except glad tidings of Good vision". It's known, from Islamic view, that dreams are divided 3 types: Soul and suppressed desires (the hungry dreams of a loaf of bread); God inspiration (foreseeing the future); and devil dreams (nightmares and evil worries). The psychologists agreed with the first type and rejected the others. Any way, as we start the essay with a dream (concerned the exams and its worries) we can continue telling similar stories: Some education instructor said that one night he was praying to God to pass a difficult exam. When he fell asleep, he dreamt as if he was in the exam class looking at the question paper which was marker with a black spot in the upper left side. The next morning he entered the exam class and got the question paper with the same black spot and the same questions. In his diaries, Sheikh Hassab Al Banna mentioned that he dreamt as if he was riding a boat with his Arabic Grammar teacher who was studying the subject with him and ordered him to study and revise specific pages. In his senior exams in Teachers College, he read the same questions as explained by his teacher. Finally, some judge of Sari'ah Court foresaw the next day exam. After praying Fajr, he focused on those questions and was not surprised by the same questions in the exam the next day. He got the full score in this subject (as he is a noble person he told the dean with this dream).
