Question: I had a dream about snakes last week. My brother and I found three large snakes in our house and caught them. One very large snake tries to escape but my father caught it and we got rid of them by calling experts who took them away. Is there any significance of this dream? I had a similar early his year and I remember having such dreams at least once a year since 2008. Every time the snakes do not harm me, I always get rid of them with the help of my brother or alone. Please pray that Allah protect me and my family from any harm. (2) Is it allowed to pray Shukrana namaz? My friends say that there is Shukrana sajdah but no Shukrana namaz. Kindly explain. I pray to Allah to reward your hard work.

Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 1998/B=396-TB=1432) (1) There is some enemy who is behind you. But he does not give you any harm due to your goodness and in-sha-Allah in future he would not do so. One should be alert from one's own and others. (2) Yes, performing Shukrana salah is permissible.
