Fart
(Breaking wind; Passing gas; Foolishness; Wind) Passing gas in a dream
means hearing or speaking vile words, or suffering from adversities, or it could
mean dispersing a group of people, telling a shocking news, stupidity, belittling
people, lies, using insulting words, or it could represent the sound that could
emanate from beating someone. If one breaks wind with a loud sound in a dream,
it means that he will address someone with harsh words. If one sees himself
sitting with people and unwillingly passes gas or breaks wind in a dream, it
means that his difficulties, sorrows or stress will be dispelled, though with
horridness and repulsiveness. If one breaks wind intentionally in such a
gathering in a dream, then it means committing an evil act and suffering from
its consequences. If one passes gas without noise in his dream, it means that he
will receive a sarcastic commendation that matches the smell of his fart. If one
breaks wind in a dream while sitting with a group of people who are experiencing
difficulties, it means that their difficulties will be dispelled, and their suffering
will ease. If they are merchants, it means that their merchandise will move
faster. If one forces himself to break wind in a dream, it means that he will carry
a burden greater than he can bear. If one breaks wind along with passing gas
in his dream, it means that he will attain success in his life, and he will receive
honor and profits from an important business trip. However, it is possible that
his interests will become diverse, or that he could lose his focus, then he will
return home free from such burdens. To fart from the mouth in a dream means
faltering or a slip of a tongue, an accident, suffering from gum irritation, a stroke
that will affect one’s speech, or it could mean developing ill habits that will cause
him to feel ashamed of himself in public.

Dye
(Color; Expose; Hair; Henna; Hide; Gray hair) Applying henna or a dye to
one’s hair or hands in a dream represents a pharmacist, celebrations, glad
tidings, tenderness, or it could mean compassion. Dyeing one’s hair in a dream
also means veiling or protecting one’s personal life and that of others. To dye
the gray hair of one’s beard in a dream means ostentatiousness and adorning
one’s merchandise or deeds to make them look better than reality. Dyeing one’s
hair in a dream also connotes a display of blessings and favors, or it could mean
dictating one’s conditions to his enemy, if the person is in such position.
However, if not, it means difficulties, aggravation, distress, debts or dropping
off one’s ties with those who love him. Interpreting woman’s dyeing of her hair
in a dream is the same as that of a man. To dye one’s gray hair in a dream means
strength, dignity and valor. Applying henna dye to one’s head and not to one’s
beard in a dream means emulating the traditions of God’s Prophet, upon whom
be peace. To dye both the head and the beard in a dream means concealing one’s
poverty, though one will keep asking people to pay him respect or to recognize
him in their circles. If one’s hair accepts the dye in the dream, it means regaining
one’s status, though with less emphasis on his pride, or it could mean that he
will make contentment his new ornament or trim. If one uses a dye other than
what is commonly used, and if it works in the dream, it means that he will be
saved from an adverse condition through miraculous events. If the new dye does
not work in the dream, it means that his true nature will be exposed and he will
have no solutions to protect himself from defamation or public abuse. If he tries
to dyes his hair with dry henna clay, and if his hair still accepts it in the dream,
it means that he is an ignorant person, though he will ultimately repent for his
sins, amend his actions and improve himself. If a woman sees her hands dyed
with gold in a dream, it means that she will give all her wealth to her husband
and that she will be satisfied to see him happy, though in reality she too will gain
power and status in her family. If a man sees his feet dyed and tattooed in a
dream, it means that he will be struck with family problems. A dyed hand in a
dream means hardship in making ends meet. If one dips his hand into a laying
corpse in a dream, it means that he will witness a conspiracy. If one sees his
hands dyed in a dream, it also means that he has reached the end of the rope
with his money or business. If one sees his dyed hands wrapped or bandaged in
a dream, it means that he will lose a trial or a fight with his rivals, or that he
will fail to meet such a challenge again. Dyeing only the finger with henna in
a dream represents branches of dates or clusters of grapes. In general, dyeing
one’s hands with henna or one’s hair with regular dye as a makeup in a dream
represents joy for the husband and wife as long as they do not exceed the norms.
Dyeing one’s hands and feet in a dream means redecorating one’s house. If a poor
person sees himself dyeing his hands or hair in a dream, it means that he will
cover up the loss of his ablution during prayers or during his reading of the Holy
Quran or during other ritual occasions where he is required to have ablution
before proceeding. It could also mean that he cares little about attending his
prayers. As for women, dyeing means happiness, new clothing, receiving gold,
or a wedding celebration. If the dye exceeds the required surface of the hands
or the feet in the dream, it means being struck with fear and worries caused by
one’s business or friends. If a man sees himself in a dream dyeing his hair or
beard with other than henna, it means that he will suffer from what he fears
most. Dyeing or suppressing one’s feelings for a sick person means recovering
from his ailment. Dyeing one’s hair black in a dream means hiding one’s bad
conditions, spoiling the benefits of one’s deeds, or hiding one’s evil intentions.
This is taken from the practice of Egypt’s Pharaoh who sometimes dyed his hair
black, thus trying to hide his appearance and ignorance.

Tailor
(Couturier; Marriage) A tailor in a dream represents unity, a peacemaker,
a scribe, a secretary, or an officiant who conducts the marriage ceremony and
witnesses the signing agreement. A tailor in a dream also represents someone
who regrets his wrongdoing, or amends his conduct for the better. To become a
tailor and sew one’s own garments in a dream means struggling to build one’s
livelihood. If one sees himself unable to do a good sewingjob in a dream, it means
that he is trying to bring opposites together but to no avail. Sewing a robe for
a woman in a dream means that he will be afflicted with a major trial. If one
sees himself as a tailor or altering garments in a dream, it means prosperity,
setting up a business venture, getting married, having a progeny, or putting
things where they belong. A tailor in a dream also represents piety and a good
character. (Also see Shoemaker; Alterations)

Book
(Decree; Flyer; Letter; Publication; Public announcement; Record; Scroll;
Write; Writing) Holding a book or a letter in one’s hand in a dream signifies
power. A book or a letter in a dream also signifies fame or public knowledge. If
one sees himself carrying a sealed letter in a dream, then it means that he will
receive confidential news or a report. If a book or a letter is carried by a child
in a dream, it means glad tidings. If it is carried by a servant or a housekeeper,
then it means glad tidings and good news. If a letter is carried by a woman, then
one could expect a quick relief from his trouble. If the letter which the woman
is carrying in the dream is an open letter, and if the woman is wearing a veil,
it means that the news she is bringing must be treated carefully. If the woman
is wearing perfume, then one could expect good news and a commendation for
his work. If one sees himself holding a closed book in a dream, it means the end
of his life in this world. If one sees a flyer or a public announcement in display
by the authorities in a dream, it means that he will gain leadership, happiness
and income. If one sends a sealed letter to someone, which is returned to him
unopened in the dream, it means losing a war to one’s enemy. If he is a merchant,
it means that he will suffer losses in his business. If he is seeking marriage, it
means the denial of his request. If one sees himself carrying a book, a record,
or a letter in his right hand in a dream, and if he had an argument, or a confusing
deal, or doubt about something, it means that he will bring clarity to that
problem. If he is incarcerated or if he is suffering from persecution, it means that
he will bring proof of his innocence and escape from his difficulties. If he is
depressed, it means that he will be able to dispel his worries. If he is travelling
in a foreign country, it means that he will find a way back to his mother land,
where he will find happiness again. Carrying a book ora letter in one’s left hand
in a dream means that he has done something bad, or something which he will
regret. Carrying a book in the right hand denotes a prosperous year. If a
stranger takes one’s book away from him in the dream, it means that someone
will take away from him his most precious and endeared thing. Tearing a book
into pieces in a dream means getting rid of one’s trouble or becoming free from
trials or evil encounters and receiving benefits. Holding to a sealed book, decree,
or a letter in a dream also signifies abidingby the rules of one’s superior. Holding
a sealed book in one’s dream also signifies success, leadership and honor. If one
is seeking marriage and sees a sealed book in his hand in a dream, it means that
his betrothal to someone will end in marriage. Seeing or receiving a blank letter
or a book from someone in a dream means absence of his news, or not knowing
where he lives. If one sees a book descending to him from the heavens and if he
thinks in the dream that he understood the contents, then whatever good or bad
news it brings, it will be the same in wakefulness. A book in a dream also
represents one’s companion, or an intimate friend. Seeing a book in a dream also
could signify recovering from an illness. A hardcover book if the content is
unknown represents dishonesty, deceit, a cheap product or selling a sealed
package with undisclosed contents, or it could represent an old woman. Bringing
books into one’s home in a dream signify hearing news about an honest and a
pious person, learning happy stories from a reporter or becoming acquainted
with religious thoughts. (Also see Encyclopedia; Letter; Write; Writer)

Medicine
(Drug; Inkwell) Taking medicine in a dream means correcting oneself,
or it could mean fulfilling one’s religious obligations. If one takes a medicine for
his illness in a dream, it means that he will correct his conduct. If it denotes
knowledge in the dream, it means that he will benefit from what he learns and
accepts the good advice. If one refuses to take his medicine in the dream, it
means that he will deviate from the path of his Lord and shift his interests to
his allotment or luck in this world. Medicine in a dream also denotes an inkwell.
Licking medicine with one’s index finger in a dream means proclaiming the
truth, or it could mean profits from the direction the index finger is pointing at
in the dream. Swallowing medicinal powder means greed, self-absorption,
reclusion and withdrawal. Taking liquid medicine orally means profits. Swal¬
lowing pills in a dream means obliging a sinner to correct himself, to repent,
or to go on the straight path. It also could mean caring to teach an ignorant
person. If a woman applies a medicinal make-up in a dream, it represents her
menstruation. As for an unwed girl, it means marriage, and for a barren
woman, it means a child. Inserting a suppository into the rectum in a dream
means spying or eavesdropping. To take a laxative in a dream means attempting
to correct one’s religious devotion, or it could mean washing one’s body from
impurities. The success of one’s attempt depends on the potency of his medi¬
cine. Seeking good health in a dream means trying to amend one’s life for the
better. The same meaning applies if one sees himself using an ointment for his
eyes. A yellow colored medicine in a dream means illness. A laxative in a dream
means a cure for a sick person and a warning for a healthy person to correct
himself. A bad tasting medicine in a dream means a fever followed by a chill.
Good tasting medicine in a dream is beneficial for rich people, though bad for

interpreting recovering without a medicine. (Also see Grapes)

Scholars
(Early companions; Legist; Masjid; Men of knowledge; Mosque; Reli¬
gious doctors; Righteous men) A scholar in a dream represents glad tidings, a
promotion, or a commendation and it represents one who acts upon what he
knows and says. Seeing one of the early scholars in a dream means increase in
one’s knowledge, for they were the wise representatives of God’s message on
earth. Seeing them also means increase in one’s wisdom, happiness, joy, and
one’s dream could mean that one will stand to admonish people or counsel them.
Seeing the early righteous people and the blessed companions of God’s Prophet,
upon whom be peace, in a dream means growth of one’s righteousness. If one sees
a scholar who is considered to be a reference in religious knowledge, and if one
accepts his admonition in the dream, though in wakefulness he does not follow
this school of thought, it means that he will be tried with an adversity that will
be remembered by people for sometime to come, though his testimony will be
accepted by the people. If a well-known early scholar appears in one’s dream
when the dwellers of that locality are experiencing adversities, economic
distress or a drought, it means that their calamity will be lifted. Seeing an
unknown scholar, or an unknown religious doctor in a dream means that a
physician or a philosopher may visit one’s house. (Also see Legist; Companions

seeker of knowledge. If he is given what he is begging for in a dream, it means

submission when asking means victory. Beggars in a dream also imply sorrow,
worries, distress, or contemplation. If one sees a beggar receiving or taking
something from him in a dream, it means being in dire need for something, or
he could represent the death of the person intended in the dream. If one sees
beggars entering his house or his town in a group in a dream, it means dispersal
of his family or household and if they take something from his house, it means
a catastrophe. A beggar in a dream also represents a student, and the giver
represents the teacher or shaikh. If one sees himself begging, but to no avail in
a dream, it means that he will be humiliated. (Also see Hobo; Poverty)

If one sees himself darning his own shirt in a dream, it means that he will have
an argument with a relative or befriend a person of evil character. Darning one’s
clothes in a dream also represents the roar of arguments or disputes. In some

the sun rises inside one’s house in a dream, it means that he will receive an
important political appointment, or that he should be careful about his asso¬
ciation with someone in authority, or it may mean marriage. If the sun rises

house in a dream, it means that she will marry a wealthy person, and that her
horizon will expand. The radiance of the sun in a dream means reverence, might
and justice of the ruler of that land. If one sees the sun talking to him in a dream,
it means that he will be honored and commended by the governor. If one sees
the sun or the moon talking to him, and if he then strolls away with them in the
dream, it represents his death. If one sees the sun rising from an unusual
direction in a dream, it represents a beneficial knowledge he will acquire. If the
sun shines over one’s head and not the rest of his body in a dream, it means that
he will receive a prominent responsibility. If its rays rise to shine over his feet
and not the rest of his body in the dream, it means a farming project that brings
him prosperity and lawful earnings. If the sun discretely shines over one’s belly
and without people’s noticing it in the dream, it means that he will be struck
with leprosy. If it shines over his chest and not the balance of his body in the
dream, it means a sickness. If a woman sees that the sun has embraced her from
her neck down in a dream, it means that she will marry a person in authority
and for one night only. Should such a person divorce her the next morning, it
means that she may become a prostitute. If the sun rises from one’s open belly
in a dream, it means his death. If one sees the sun setting and himself walking
behind it, it also means death. If one sees himself walking behind the sun in a
dream, it means that he will be captured and imprisoned. If one sees the sun
turned into an old man in a dream, it means that the governor will become a
pious and God-fearing person. Otherwise, if the sun turns into a young man in

illness. If it turns black in the dream, it means losses. If one seeks the sun after
it sets in a dream, it means that whatever is destined for him whether it be good
or bad has passed. If one sees the sun rising at times different than its usual
sun rising time in a dream, it means that an uprising against the government
will take place in different parts of the country. If one sees himself with the sun
in a dream and should he be working in the government, or the army, it means
that he will betray his superior, or the ruler of that land. Otherwise, it means
that his condition will deteriorate and life will turn against him. If the sun has
no rays in the dream, it means that the governor or the general of the army will lose respect.
If he is an administrator, it means that he will be dismissed from his function.
If he is a subject or an employee it means that he will lose his source
of income. If a woman sees a sun that has no rays in a dream, it means that her
husband will deprive her of her needs. If one sees the sun split in two in a dream,
it means losing one’s dominion. If one sees the sun falling down in a dream, it
means that a major calamity will befall the inhabitants of the earth. If it falls

people of one’s locality. If a traveller sees the sun too bright in a dream, it means

that land. If one swallows the sun in a dream, it means distress, sorrow or death.
If the sun rises from the West, then it means defamation, exposing the ills of the
person seeing it, or divulging a secret. The rising of the sun from the West also
means recovering from an illness, and for a businessman, it means profits from
that direction, but in general, it may mean revealing a secret, or it could mean
a scandal or death. The same interpretation is given if one sees the sun rising
from the South to set in the North. If the sun changes its nature in a dream, it
means trouble in that land. If one sits under the sun in a dream, it means that
he will receive honor and blessed profits. Grabbing some rays of the sun in a
dream means receiving undiminishing wealth. The sunrise in a dream also
means waking people up to go to work, seeking one’s livelihood, begetting a son,
or releasing a prisoner. If one is hiding something, then seeing the sun in his
dream means that his secret will be exposed. If one sees the rays of the sun
falling over his bed or threatening him in a dream, it means a painful sickness,
or inflammation of the skin. If the sun rays which are falling over his bed provide
him with good energy in the dream, it means a good harvest, or good health. If
travellers see many suns in the sky in a dream, it means profits and prosperity.
Running away from the sun in a dream means that one may leave his wife, or
he may run away from the governor of that land, or escape from an evil. If the
sun and the moon meet in one’s dream, it means a royal marriage, or a marriage
between a beautiful woman and a wealthy man. Clouds covering the rays of the
sun in a dream means an illness. If one carries the sun in a bag in a dream, it
means money. The sun in a dream also could represent a wise man, or a teacher
one whose company is sought. Otherwise, the sun in a dream could represent,
the governor, one’s husband, wife, child, mother, daughter, aunt, father, or
grandfather and the above interpretations will relate to such a person. Whatever
happens to the sun in the dream, will then affect such people. If one sees the sun
rising, then immediately setting in the same direction in a dream, it means a
newborn who may die shortly after his birth, returning an ex-prisoner to jail
shortly after his release, earning amazing amounts of money, or repenting from
sin, reverting to wrongdoing, the return of a bride to her parent’s house
immediately after her wedding night, or it could mean reconciliation between
husband and wife. If one sees the sun and the moon shinning on him in a dream,
it means that his parents are pleased with him. If one sees himself prostrating
to the sun or the moon in a dream, it means that he will commit an awful sin,

in love with a beautiful face, or perhaps he will be hurt by someone he adores,
or it could mean loss of spiritual direction, or it could be a severe warning about
a woman he loves. If a woman sees herself carrying the sun in a dream, it means
that she will find a husband, or bear a son. If one sees the sun talking to him
in a dream, it means that he will discover a mystery or acquire knowledge about
spirits, or he could become a translator, an analyst, or a consultant. Seeing the
sun, the moon and the stars together in a dream denotes adversities, jealousy
