If a woman sees in a dream that someone is having intercourse with her, this is something natural, for women may experience erotic dreams just as men do. If a woman sees such things in her dream, then if something comes out of her as a result of that dream, she has to do Ghusl.

There is no Shar`iah-approved method to see Prophet Muhammad in a dream. Such dreams are only valid if the Prophet appears in his true image, as the Shaytan cannot imitate him. Following the Sunnah is considered the best way to spiritually connect with the Prophet.

• Abu Sa’id al-Khudri narrated that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: “If any one of you sees a dream that he likes, it is from Allah, so let him praise Allah for it and tell people about it. But if he sees something other than that, that he dislikes, it is from the Shaitan, so let him seek refuge with Allah from its evil and not mention it to anyone, for it will not harm him.” (Narrated by al-Bukhari, 7045)

Shaykh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah and others said that it is possible for a person to see Allah in a dream. A person may see in his dream that Allah is speaking to him, but whatever images he sees is not Allah because there is nothing like unto Allah, so there is nothing that resembles Him.
