Seeing the Injil in a Dream

In the book Perfuming the Sleep in the Expression of a Dream, Nabulsi said, “Whoever is a Muslim and sees that he has the Book of the Injil will be devoted to worship and asceticism, and perhaps the Injil denotes isolation. If the seer has influence or strength, then his/her vision or dream expresses oppression of enemies or the prevention of grievances.”

Seeing the Injil symbolizes fulfilling a human message or responsibility. These tasks may be arduous because the Injil describes the suffering of Isa Al-Masih (His peace be upon us) while communicating His message to the world. As for the purchase of the Injil in a dream, this may signify an important knowledge gain and broad knowledge.

Seeing the Injil at home means that the house will witness good news soon.

The Injil in a dream is good news to the dreamer. If they have any hopes that something will happen, and they see the gospel in a dream, then he will achieve the hope.

The Injil in some old interpretations is a salvation from worries and sorrows. So, if the dreamer was distressed and saw in their dream that they were reading or browsing the Injil, they would escape anxiety, anguish and all sorrows.

Seeing the Injil in a patient’s dream expresses healing. If the sick person sees themselves holding the Injil, then by Allah’s mercy they will recover.

The Injil in a dream represents a covenant. It is a symbol of repentance because the Injil includes the New Testament from the Bible, and the term New Testament (Covenant) indicates constructive change or beneficial renewal.

The Injil also symbolizes pardon and forgiveness because its vision expresses tolerance, restlessness, and peace.

Seeing the Injil in a dream has many indications and meanings. Most of the interpretations given of the Injil are based on verbal and functional significance. The word “gospel or Injil” is of Greek origin and means good news or good tidings.

According to the significance of the word, seeing the Injil in the dream has positive meanings. It is a sign of good or joyful news, and it indicates that a comprehensive and positive change has occurred in the seer’s life. The Injil is the New Testament, so if the Injil appears in the dream, its significance means renewal, whether on the level of the spiritual life, social status, existence, or otherwise.

But if we rely on the functional significance of the Injil in mindfulness as a divine holy book, then seeing it in a dream means salvation or deliverance, because this book describes the journey of Isa Al-Masih (His peace be upon us) from His birth until His crucifixion and resurrection on the third day, for He came to this world to save man from sin.

Seeing the Injil in a dream symbolizes the salvation of the seer from sins or mistakes, as the Injil also indicates healing from sickness or illness. It also symbolizes spiritual and moral transcendence, and it is the interpretation of a sincere statement or news that is certain to happen.

In some ancient interpretations, the Injil in dreams indicates redemption, and it was said to symbolize the witness for those who were litigating or contesting. If the dreamer sees it written in the Arabic language, then he/she is a witness of truth, justice, and fairness.

The vision of the Injil in the dream of someone sick is a cure, and it is good news for the distressed, sad, innocent, and the prisoner wishing to be set free. The Injil also indicates for scholars and educators the wisdom of the seer and his knowledge. Whoever sees themselves in a dream reading the Injil is knowledgeable in religion or learns what benefits people, and the Injil symbolizes happy and good news.

  1. Alsalam Alaykoom. I dreamt that my sister was carrying a copy of the Injil and telling my mom that she will follow its guidance. What does that dream mean especially that we don’t believe in the Injil as it was corrupted?

    1. Wa alaikum salaam, Samia. Thank you for writing and sharing your dream with us. The Injil is Allah’s direct message of truth, guidance, and salvation through Sayidna Isa Al-Masih (His peace be upon us). When someone appears in a dream carrying Scripture and declaring their intention to follow it, this indicates that Allah is drawing that person to Himself and revealing His truth to them. The fact that your sister was sharing this declaration with your mother suggests this is not merely a private decision but one that will impact your family relationships. While you mention concerns about corruption, from a biblical perspective, Allah has preserved His Word throughout history (Tawrat, Isaiah 40:8, Injil, Matthew 24:35), and the manuscripts we have today are remarkably consistent and reliable. This dream is an invitation for you to examine the Injil for yourself with an open heart, as Allah often speaks through dreams to reveal truth that transcends our preconceived understandings. Allah is preparing your family for a spiritual journey and calling you to support your sister rather than oppose her search for truth. Consider praying and asking Allah directly to reveal His truth to you, as He promises to guide those who seek Him with sincere hearts (Tawrat, Jeremiah 29:13). May Allah continue to guide you on this journey of discovery, and may His peace rest upon your heart. Don’t hesitate to write us back if you have any questions.

  2. I’m a Muslim girl I had a dream where I was excavating and digging for valuables with a group, my sister included. I found ancient broken statues of someone’s feet, I was digging it up with ease. I see some words of some sort and I pull out a huge green holy bible from 1848…I flicked through it I saw like family trees. And the passages in general. The other things I dug up were these wooden looking things, perfectly preserved I thought they were shoes. I’ve never dreamt of a bible before it was so green, the inside was a light green tint with black text.

    1. Thank you, Hiba, for sharing and entrusting us with your dream. The act of excavating and discovering buried treasures symbolizes a divine call to seek deeper spiritual truth, as Sayidna Isa Al-Masih (His peace be upon us) taught in the Injil, Matthew 13:44 about the kingdom of heaven being like treasure hidden in a field. The broken statues of feet you uncovered first represent the inadequacy of man-made religious systems and idols that crumble over time, echoing the teachings found in the Tawrat, Isaiah 44 where false gods cannot save. The ease with which you unearthed these items suggests Allah (SWT) is making this revelation accessible to you without struggle. The central element of your dream the large green Holy Bible from 1848 is particularly striking. Green symbolizes life, growth, and renewal, pointing to the living Word of Allah that brings eternal life. That you’ve never dreamed of a Bible before indicates this is a significant spiritual moment orchestrated by the Spirit of Allah. The family trees you saw inside point to Jesu Sayidna Isa’s (His peace be upon us) genealogy and Allah’s redemptive plan through generations, ultimately fulfilled in Sayidna Isa Al-Masih (His peace be upon us). The preserved wooden objects that resembled shoes may represent the Injil message, the “beautiful feet” of those who bring good news (Injil, Romans 10:15) and the call to walk in truth. This dream is an invitation from Sayidna Isa Al-Masih (His peace be upon us) to explore the Injil personally, discovering that He is the fulfillment of all spiritual seeking. The Bible you found isn’t merely an artifact but the living Word calling you to know Sayidna Isa Al-Masih (His peace be upon us) intimately, as He said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life” (Injil, John 14:6). May the Lord bless you on your spiritual journey and lighten your path with His truth. Don’t hesitate to write us back if you have any questions.

  3. Asalam alaikom, last night I saw a book coming down from hevean surrounded by bright light so I ran to catch it, and when I got it I felt light entered to my heart, and I felt so clean and refreshed, like I was born again. When I open the book, I saw the word Injil on it, then I woke up. What does this mean?

    1. Wa alaikum al-salam, Faruq. We thank you for sharing your dream and letting us help you to interpret it. Seeing the Injil descending with bright light from heaven suggests a divine affirmation and emphasis on its message, and also confirms its divine source. The Injil is not corrupted as you may think, but it represents good news, is the Word of Allah and contains principles to guide you and prepare you for eternal life: “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the righteousness man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” (Injil, 2 Timothy 3:16-17). The light entering your heart and making you clean and refreshed confirms the power of the Word of Allah and the message of redemption and hope found in the pages of the Injil. The Qur’an does not cancel the Injil, but confirms it: “He sent upon you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming what existed before this. And He revealed the Torah and the Gospel” (Al-Imran 3:3, see also Al-Maida 5:46-47). “That is the Book! There is no doubt about it—a guide for those devoted to Allah”(˺ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْكِتَـٰبُ لَا رَيْبَ ۛ فِيهِ ۛ هُدًۭى لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ) (Al-Baqarah 2:2). Also, the Words of Allah cannot be changed: “There is no change in His words” (Al-Kahf 18:27). Your dream is showing that Allah’s message never changes, and the reverence for His word is part of true submission, confirming that the Injil is Holy and speaks about light, guidance and redemption. I encourage you to pray for wisdom and discernment and study the Injil for yourself to learn more. May Allah bless you abundantly. Please write again if you need more clarification. I also encourage you to explore our articles about the Holy Injil to understand more.

  4. Alsalam Alaykoom. I had a dream of an Injil being given to me by a relative. I didn’t understand where did he get it from and I woke up confused from that dream. What does the dream mean please?

    1. Wa alaikum al-salam, Fahid. We thank you for sharing your dream with us. Seeing a relative giving you the Injil points to spiritual heritage, a calling to spiritual awakening from a trustworthy source. Many believe that the Injil has been changed or corrupted, yet both reason and revelation show that Allah’s words cannot be altered by human hands. The Qur’an itself affirms the divine origin and preservation of the earlier revelations: “He sent upon you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming what existed before this. And He revealed the Torah and the Gospel” (Al-Imran 3:3, see also Al-Maida 5:46-47). “That is the Book! There is no doubt about it—a guide for those devoted to Allah”(˺ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْكِتَـٰبُ لَا رَيْبَ ۛ فِيهِ ۛ هُدًۭى لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ) (Al-Baqarah 2:2). This text points to the previous writings if you study it in its context. Also, the Words of Allah cannot be changed: “There is no change in His words” (Al-Kahf 18:27). Allah is not a weak god that can’t protect His own words and teachings. Every true believer who sincerely seeks the truth must approach divine revelation with an open heart willing to be guided: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.” (Injil, Matthew 5:6). Also, the Injil contains a message of life, redemption, mercy and guidance for every true believer: “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (Injil, 2 Timothy 3:16-17). I encourage you to study the Injil with prayer and an open heart: “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.” (Injil, Matthew 7:7). I also invite you to read our article with more clarification about the subject: https://dreamsofisa.org/en/the-holy-injil
      Please let us know if you have more questions, we will be happy to discuss more with you. May Allah bless you with wisdom and discernment always.

  5. AlSalam ALaikom. I saw a dream that I was out of home and my mom was calling me for prayer time and when I went inside I saw that she has put an Injil for me to read. I woke up confused cause the dream didn’t make sense for me but I am still thinking why did I have such a dream. Thanks for your help explaining things for me.

    1. Wa alaikum al-salam, Rajwa. We thank you for sharing your dream with us. Your mom calling you for prayer represents care, guidance, and nurturing and giving you the Injil to read, points to spiritual heritage and a calling to discover something that is not very familiar to you yet but it is important for you spiritual growth. The Injil was given by Allah to instruct and guide (Injil, 2 Timothy 3:16-17) and the Qur’an honors and confirms it: “He has sent upon you, [O Muhammad], the Book indeed, confirming what existed before this. And He revealed the Torah and the Gospel” (Al-Imran 3:3, see also Al-Maida 5:46-47). Furthermore, Allah’s Words cannot be changed: “There is no change in His words”( Al-Kahf 18:27). This confirms the importance of the Injil and its teachings, and reading and understanding the Injil is crucial for spiritual growth. So your dream is calling you to engage in the study of Allah’s words written in the Injil and He will guide you in truth and life. May Allah bless you.
