Companions of the Prophet (uwbp)
(Followers; Righteous people; Successors) If
one sees in a dream that one of the companions of God’s Messenger, upon whom
be peace, his followers or their successors entering a town or locality that is
suffering under natural adversities, oppression or war, it means relief for its
people and reversal of their conditions. It could also mean that their leaders will
become guided again. To see the gnostics of a land means increase in one’s
knowledge. To see the wise men of a land, means increase in one’s wisdom. To
see the preachers of a town in a dream means spiritual growth and increase in
one’s happiness. To see the righteous dwellers of a land and God’s trustees
therein in a dream means increase in one’s devotion. If one sees past companions
alive in a dream, it means prosperity, justice and economic growth for the
inhabitants, coming from a God-fearing leadership. If one sees himself resur¬
recting one of the companions, their followers or successors in a dream, it means
that he will revive his practices and traditions. If one sees himself turned into
one of the known righteous companion or followers of God’s Prophet, upon whom
be peace in a dream, it means trials in one’s life to equal the exalted station of
such blessed beings, though the end is praiseworthy. (Also see Righteous people;
Scholars)

Buffalo
(Wild ox) A buffalo in a dream represents a strong, innovative and a
forbearing leader, who is courageous and well respected by his followers. If a
woman sees herself having buffalo’s horns in a dream, it means that she will
preside over a group of people or marry a man who is a leader in his community.
A buffalo in a dream also represents an intelligent but fraudulent person who
travels extensively and who is persistent in his demands. In a dream, a buffalo
also means striving, toiling and tight handedness, though others may still
benefit from him. If a buffalo is used in plowing in a dream, it connotes an insult,
or a misdeed. (Also see Caw; Counting buffaloes; Steer; Oryx; Ox)

Prophet
In a dream, each one of God’s prophets, upon all of them be peace and
blessings, is like a compassionate father toward his son, who is trying to save
his child from the hell of this world and the hell-fire in the hereafter. In a dream,
a prophet also represents a teacher, a tutor, a shaikh, a warning, or glad tidings.
If one sees them standing in a stately form, or if one prays behind them, or
follows them on the road, or eats something from their delicious food, or drinks
from their drink, or if one is anointed with their perfume, or learns something
from them, or acquires a particular knowledge from them in a dream, it
demonstrates his trueness, faith in God’s oneness, following His Messenger and
being faithful to his traditions. Otherwise, if one walks before them, or leads
them into a narrow lane, or stones them, or mocks them, or argues with them
in a dream, it means that he is an innovator and a heedless person. This could
also mean that he will be persecuted by his superiors, for a prophet in a dream
also represents a ruler or a king, and God’s prophets are in truth the guardians
of the souls, and they are kings in this world and in the hereafter. A prophet in
a dream also represents a religious scholar, because religious scholars are the
heirs of the prophets, upon all of them be peace. Religious scholars also know
God’s prophets better than the common people. They understand their message
and follow their traditions of glorifying God’s Oneness, devotion, piety, prayers,
charity, acting upon what they know and admonishing others to follow the path
of truth and righteousness. A prophet in a dream also represents one’s superior,
a preacher, a righteous Imam, a conscientious teacher and a caller to God
Almighty. Seeing any of God’s prophets looking gracious, stately and courtly in
a dream also represents his people’s devotion, or that a major and a positive
change will take place among his followers. If such a prophet looks spurious,
unhappy in a dream, or if he appears in a state that does not befit God’s prophets,
it means that his followers in the world have deviated from his path and created
their own religion, opposing his commands, falsifying and interpreting his
message to their own liking and abusing his admonition. If one claims to be a
prophet in a dream, it means that he will become known in his field, or if he
qualifies, he may become a ruler, a judge, a teacher or a caller to God Almighty,
commanding what is good and forbidding what is evil. Otherwise, it means that
he will be inflicted with a great calamity because of a falsehood he fosters, or
innovations he practices. If one becomes a messenger in a dream or a caller to
God Almighty, and if someone hearkens to him and accepts his message in the
dream, it means that he will rise in rank. Otherwise, it means that he will
become a broker, a liar, a defrauder, a swagger, depending on his level of
knowledge, or it could mean that he will be struck with a major calamity in his
life. Such a calamity will be of the same caliber, degree and nature that a
messenger of God Almighty may have suffered from his own people. Seeing one
of God’s prophets in a dream also means living the experience of time, space and
condition in which he saw him in the dream. Wearing the cloak of one of God’s
prophets in a dream means attaining one’s goals, or presiding over people, or
acquiring true knowledge. Consequently, one will become renowned, revered
and his opinions will be respected by most people. If one becomes a prophet in
a dream, it means that he will die as a martyr, or become poor and be gifted with
patience and endurance. He will then be granted victory, and God willing, all
his needs will be satisfied. Emulating the devotion of a prophet in a dream
means trueness in one’s faith, compliance with God’s religion, certitude and
determination. Becoming one of God’s prophets, upon all of them be peace and
blessings, in a dream means commanding good and forbidding evil, suffering
from adversities and distress equal to those endured by such a prophet, then one
will escape from destruction or humiliation by God’s leave and through His
subtle kindness. If one sees a prophet suffering from poverty and asking for help
in a dream, it means that God Almighty will satisfy all the needs of the person
seeing such a dream for the sake of the blessings reserved for that prophet. If
one kills a prophet in a dream, it means that he will betray a trust, negate a
promise, or deny a covenant. Living in the time of one of God’s prophets on earth
in a dream means honor, dignity, success, piety and wealth if one is suited for
such gifts. Otherwise, it means that Satan is deceiving him. If a prophet of God
Almighty beats a righteous and a sincere believer in a dream, it means that he
will attain peace and salvation in his life in the hereafter. If a prophet talks to
someone in a dream, it means that he will receive blessings, honor, status,
knowledge, wisdom and fame in his life. (Also see Muhammad, upon whom be
peace.)

Tooth
Teeth in a dream represent one's identity, age, clan, a boy, a girl, his
family, money, servants, domestic animals, employees, weapons, life, death,
unity, separation, trusts, or savings. In a dream, male's or female's upper teeth
represent the male members of one's family from the father's side, and the teeth
ofthe lowerjaw represent the female members of one's family from the mother's
side. The closer the teeth are to the incisor, the closer is the relative. Divided
in two sections, the upper right incisor represents the father, and the upper left
incisor represents the paternal uncle, or it could represent one's sisters, sons,
or a close friend. The upper canines represent one's cousin. or two friends who
are as close as cousins. The bicuspids represent one's uncles from the mother's
side and their children, while the molars represent the grandparents and the

or it could mean problems in one's house. If the crown or the enamel of one's
eyetooth is damaged, or if it falls in a dream, it means the death of one's son.

molar teeth represent the male members and the incisors represent the female

someone's ideas, or it could mean a family dispute. Fallen teeth in a dream may
denote that the husband and the wife sleep in separate beds, or it may mean
poverty, or that one may die in a foreign land, or that the term of one's life span
in this world may be extended. Ifone pulls out his teeth and buries them in the
dream, it means that his entire clan or family will die before him. Pulling out
one's teeth in a dream also means exposing one's secrets. Losing a tooth in a
dream may imply a punishment for a wrongdoing. Ifone finds the teeth of his
