This reflects the Islamic emphasis on *niyyah* (intention), where the value of actions is judged by the purity of one's heart. However, the nature of the goal and the means of achieving it are critical factors in determining whether the dream carries a positive or negative connotation. If the goal is aligned with Islamic principles, it signifies blessings and divine favor.
