Question

I have done istikhara for the purpose of marriage, what I have seen in my dream is that I am sitting on a stage as if a function is taking place, wearing a white dress and green scarf, but my lower lip is bleeding. I repeated my istikhara for several days, what I saw was the same dream but no blood this time, and a third time I also saw the to be groom smiling in one dream, after repeatedly doing istikhara I felt content, now different fears come to my mind, which I guess is natural considering such a big decision in your life. Can you guide me to the interpretation of my dreams? The bleeding concerns me.

Answer

It is a good dream. If you and your parents are pleased with the boy's Deen, character and mannerisms, then you may accept the proposal.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
