Giving respite is indicative of punishment. If a person dreams thathe gave respite to a man, he will punish him, because Allah says: “So give a respite to the disbelievers; deal gently with themfor a while.” [Al-Taariq 86:17] It was said that it is a warning and indicates that the dreamer is indifficulty but relief is close at hand, because Allah says: “And if the debtor is in a hard time (has no money), then granthim time till it is easy for him to repay.” [Al-Baqarah 2:280] The correct way is to refer to the current situation in which thedreamer is, because that is the basis of dream interpretation.
Allah knows best. This is not a fatwa.
