In August 2012, two months before I was extradited to the US, I saw a dream. I made a note of it in my diary.
I saw that I was alone in an American prison bus. The bus came out of these huge black prison gates and then stopped.
I got out of the bus but for some reason I waited there instead of going on my way.
Minutes later another bus came through those same gates. There was one man in that bus. It was Shaker. He came out of the bus, I hugged him and I cried.
At the time I saw this dream I did not know when, or if, I or Shaker would ever leave prison alive, let alone whether we would ever meet each other again.
My interpretation of this dream was that I would be released from prison first, and Shaker would be released very soon after me.
By the Grace of Allah, in July 2015, three years after Allah showed me this dream, I was released and returned to my family. Three months after I came home, Shaker was released in October 2015.

True dreams are a part of Prophethood, as it was reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “True dreams are one of the forty-six parts of Prophethood.”
(al-Bukhaari, 6472; Muslim, 4201)
Dreams marked the onset of Revelation
(al-Bukhaari, 3; Muslim, 231).
The truthfulness of the dream is related to the sincerity of the dreamer. Those who have the most truthful dreams are those who are the most truthful in speech.
(Muslim, 4200)
Towards the end of time, hardly any dreams will be untrue. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “That will be because the Prophethood and its effects will be so far away in time, so the believers will be given some compensation in the form of dreams which will bring them some good news or will help them to be patient and steadfast in their faith.”
(al-Bukhaari, 6499; Muslim, 4200)

Whoever wants to have true dreams should strive to speak honestly, eat halaal food, adhere to the commandments of sharee’ah, avoid that which Allaah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) have forbidden, sleep in a state of complete purity facing the Qiblah, and remember Allaah until he feels his eyelids drooping. If he does all this, then his dreams can hardly be untrue.

Akhi you are an inspiration. You, Shaker Amer, Moazzam Begg, Shafiq Rasul and Ruhel Ahmed are heroes and a big inspiration. You people have been through big stressful challenges and are still smiling. You guys are positive and optimistic. I can relate to you a lot akhi because I am also going through big difficulties and I know exactly how you felt. Believe me my health problems are severe. Getting through each day is a major feat. I am full of uncertainty and worry. Pray for me brother. I always think about my past. Before I got anxiety and depression I was a different person. I could concentrate and enjoy every minute. But there is hope for the future.
