The MeshivasNefesh Chelek Even Haezer, Takanat Agunot 35.7 is quoted as permitting an aguna based on the combination of factors including a mother saying her son appeared in a dream saying he drowned and mentioned the area of the river.

Are there others who disagree with this ruling?

Note: CYLOR who will then call his gadol

  • Isnt that teshuva discussing a case where the dream gives over facts that no one could have known and then become like simanim? – sam Dec 17 '19 at 3:19

    It's not only because of the dream. – kouty Dec 17 '19 at 10:46

Yes ,I believe the Noda B'Yehuda would disagree. In Yoreh Deah Tinyana siman 30 he notes that dreams are not reliable and writes " where do we ever see halacha learned from a dream!?!?".further in the teshuva he writes " to bring a proof from a dream is nonsense and nothing at all". He is discussing a case about a certain fish(barbuta) which was debatable about its status of kashrus.
