DREAMS OF ISLAM

We are two Western Muslims, a British educator and an American writer, who are interested both in how dreams relate to the spiritual life, and in how Islam is presently perceived by Muslims and non-Muslims both in the west and in traditionally Muslim lands. We hope to collaborate on a book with the provisional title of Dreams of Islam.

We are looking for striking or significant dreams about Islam from both Muslims and non-Muslims, dreams which have had a strong impact on you the dreamer, whether or not you think the content would seem "interesting" to an outsider. The Islamic content could refer to people, events, places, beliefs, practices, symbols, memories or associations, architecture, works of art, written or spoken words - anything specifically Islamic, or with an Islamic flavor.
