Islamic Interpretation
Seeing God’s Prophet Zachariah (peace be upon him) in a dream signifies divine remembrance, mercy, and the fulfillment of long-awaited prayers. It indicates that God Almighty will restore fertility and blessing to the dreamer and his spouse, even after a prolonged period of barrenness or at an advanced age, demonstrating that divine power transcends natural limitations. Such a vision also foretells the birth of a righteous and virtuous son, one who will grow to become a leader, noble progenitor, or person of lasting influence. This offspring will be distinguished by upright character, wisdom, and devotion, and will carry forward a legacy of faith, honor, and remembrance of God. Seeing Prophet Zachariah (peace be upon him) in a dream is therefore a sign of hope, answered supplication, renewal of life, and enduring lineage, accompanied by divine favor and blessing.
