Words of Messenger Elijah Muhammad Transcribed from Table Talks - June 16, 1974
"We have people in this old evil time that want you to believe they have been inspired by God just in an old dream. "You know I dreamed such and such a thing, I want to tell my dream." But in the Holy Qur'an such acts are condemned; it is very well put there to keep down anything like that which came up in Moses' time, a lot of diviners and a lot of dreamers. Isaiah's Teaching prophecy this same point: he says if you dream a dream, tell a dream. Don't try to make it other than what it is by calling it a Vision. This is what most of them would like for you to do, that is consider their dream a Vision. I didn't have a dream they say, I had a vision and I saw such and such a thing and I heard the Lord say so and so...They do that today in order to claim divinity. So the Bible is right when it warns us that if you have a dream just say I dreamed so and so, don't try to make it some kind of divine vision. I asked the Savior about dreams and He said Brother, we don't pay any attention to dreams. Now think over this. "
