Question Summary:
Dream interpretation

Question Detail:

I have researched this thoroughly but I have not been able to find one answer to this that I believe is correct and I would be so grateful if you could help me.  My friend had a dream in which he killed a lamb/goat and he didn't want to kill it but he needed it for food, and then he felt so bad for the goat/lamb. Could you please help me understand what the meaning of this dream would be in terms of Islam. 
Thank you so much, may Allah (SWT) reward you for all of your help on the issue.

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
The dream reflects your friend's soft nature and willingness for self sacrifice. This is a very beautiful quality; May Allah Ta'ālā bestow one and all with noteworthy qualities.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
