The dream is one of the most frequent motifs in mystical proses, which was considered a kind of honor. It is used as a medium to gain knowledge and understanding because it brought information from the unseen world (the afterlife). In these dreams, the question of “What did the God Almighty do to you?” is very frequent because of the fear Sufis had of the afterlife and the consequences of their actions. The inquirer asks the teller to enlighten him about the events of the purgatory. If God has absolved him of his sins, what was the reason for that? And if he has been tormented or punished for his sins, what negligence or mistake was he punished for? To answer the abovementioned questions, eighteen mystical proses were analyzed. The analysis of the obtained results showed that, in most cases, the teller talks about the favor and mercy of God and that the affairs of the afterlife are easier than what people think, so much that for fifty-nine cases of God's mercy, only nine cases of punishment were seen during the analysis. Contemplation on the proses shows that first, God’s favor and “causeless mercy” or, to be more precise, His “generosity and beneficence” are not only toward mystics and righteous people but also toward normal people, sinners, and murderers; hence God’s true nature is of justice and mercy. And second, that heaven and its blessings are the least of rewards given to the blessed by God; while the more exclusive rewards are seeing God and His companionship, God’s consent and satisfaction in His servants, the prophet greeting the mystic, and being the companions of prophets and righteous people.
