I'm speaking about volumes if possible, specifically for dreams

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream_interpretation

In Arabic the internet is full of Ibn Sirin (654–728) book narrations, but their credibility to be sourced to him is not credible since I don't have the source.

You don't really need source material.  Interpret your dreams however you like and you'll never be wrong.

I just dreamed that Allah is not real and that prophet Mohammed was a liar - what does it all mean?

I suspect the fact that there can be no wrong answers will prove sadly and totally inadequate to the task of preventing those who seeks to have their dreams interpreted from arriving at the wrong answer.

It means you dream better than Muslims.

The "symbolism" is what the interpretation materials are for. Say you dream about a "fish"; the fish symbolizes something in the dream, the ancient text tells you what it means.

It is accurate sometimes

Dreams have meaning. Even if you abandon the spiritual meanings you have to believe in the scientific meanings :

What triggers your emotions when you are asleep? is it someone sending you a message?

Dreams are intensely personal.  If you think a fish means a fish, you're right (although it won't mean a fish to everyone).  If you think it means a concrete abutment at the west  end of a suspension bridge, you're right (same caveat).
