Yusuf — the Quran’s own tabeer

رؤيا يوسف

The Quran did not leave tabeer to market booklets. Yusuf saw eleven stars, the sun, and the moon prostrating. His father said: do not tell your brothers. Two prisoners saw a press of wine and birds eating bread. Yusuf interpreted, and said: the matter is decided. The king saw seven fat cows and seven lean. Yusuf interpreted seven years of plenty and seven of drought, and he saved a country.

Ibrahim told his son a dream of sacrifice. Both submitted. Allah ransomed him with a great sacrifice. A dream of a prophet is true. You are not a prophet.

From the Quran

From the Sunnah

Yusuf’s gift was from Allah. Copying his story into a dream-app is not that gift.
