707. Why Do We See Bad Dreams In Ramadhaan?

By Asma bint Shameem

You can still get bad dreams in Ramadhaan, even though the Prophet sal Allaahu Alayhi wa sallam said that the devils are chained in Ramadhaan.

What this means is that the most evil ones, the ‘bigger’ shayateen are locked up. 

As for the Qareen devil (companion devil), then he is not chained up. 

Proof 

When Safiyyah radhi Allaahu anhaa came to the Prophet sal Allaahu Alayhi wa sallam while he was in itikaaf and two men of Ansaar passed by so they quickened their pace, then the prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam called them and said: “she is Safiyyah”so they wondered at what he said. 

The the Prophet sal Allaahu Alayhi wa sallam said: 
“I was afraid lest Shaytaan should instill something (evil) in your hearts.” (al-Bukhaari)

And this incidence took place in Ramadhaan.

So just because it’s Ramadhaan that does not mean that ALL Shayateen are locked up. 

So make sure you make wudhu before you go to sleep and read the bedtime adhkaar. 

And of course pray your five daily prayers in time, and stay away from all sins especially music.

And Allaah knows best.
