"Why Am I Blamed for Not Having Children?": The Deceased Appeared in a Dream with a Shocking Claim

During a gathering for spiritual awakening and strengthening ahead of the High Holy Days, Rabbi Tzion Boaron revealed an amazing story about a dream his grandson had about a neighbor who passed away a few months earlier. After the passing, Rabbi Boaron's grandson decided to take upon himself the recitation of the Kaddish for the deceased - whose name was Shlomo Edri.

Rabbi Boaron explained that his grandson recited Kaddish for some time until the head of the yeshiva approached him and asked: You have parents, why are you saying Kaddish? "He came to me and told me this and asked what to do. I told him that in my opinion, you don't need to say Kaddish because your parents are alive. Someone else should recite the Kaddish," shared the rabbi, as reported on 'Kikar HaShabbat'. "This was on Friday, and on Shabbat evening at the yeshiva, he did not recite Kaddish."

However, on that Friday night, the grandson's sister had a dream, and in her dream, she saw the same Jew, Shlomo Edri. "She asked him 'How are you in the world of truth?' realizing he had died. Then he told her, 'Why am I blamed for not having children, why am I blamed that no one says Kaddish for me?'"

The granddaughter did not understand what the deceased meant, and on Shabbat morning, she told her grandfather about the dream. "When I heard this, I said to her: 'Wow, I am to blame. There was a young God-fearing man who said Kaddish for him, and I told him 'Don't say it.'"

Here, Rabbi Tzion Boaron learned a tremendous moral lesson that he now wishes to share with all of Israel. "From this, we understand how important it is, and nothing is more essential and sacred to a soul than the Kaddish. Therefore, one must be careful with it," he concluded.
