Dream Interpretation

Imam Sadiq (pbuh) is a great academic personality which the human history has come to know. He has advanced this great colossal (amount) of constructive and effectual contributions, in the interest of service to humanity and the building of civilization. Such as, and indeed he has [contributed to], bettering off the Islamic intellect by means of what he propogated of the kinds of sciences full of fundamentals of life. And in addition to that, the brilliant intellectual treasures, and that which is considered to be the pillar of the academic revival to his era. So the Imam (pbuh) has left for us a collection of the visions transmitted from him regarding his interpretations of dreams. So that there is [a book] by Imam Sadiq (pbuh) of Dream Interpretations specifically by him, that is circulating among the people and to a nearby age.
And the reality is that a book specific for this subject was not provided by the Imam (pbuh). Rather it was upon our gathering of visions ascribed to the Imam, we discovered a large collection from these visions in the book (Ta’ateer AlAnam) by Nablusi, and of which the author backing [the chain of narrations] is Imam Ja’afer AlSadiq is from a book ascribed to him called (Biltaqseem(By Distribution)). And the author cites in his book: (And I have accredited) concerning that upon the foremost books and the respected Sheikhs’ views such as: Essentials by Daniel AlHakeem, and the book the Distribution by Ja’afer AlSadiq, and the book the Compilers by Muhammed bin Seereen.
And we cherish the reader when we place before you this book that we ask our Master, Praise and Glory to Him, to grant the good of His acceptance. And lastly our supplication is that all praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
