Minaret
(Spiritual guide; Letter carrier; Lighthouse; Minaret of a mosque) In a
dream, the minaret of a mosque represents a righteous man who fosters unity
and love between people, who calls them to live by their religious covenant and
guides them on the path of God Almighty. If a minaret is demolished in a dream,
it represents the death of such a spiritual guide, fading of his name, dispersal
of his community, and perhaps it could lead to the reversal of their conditions.
The minaret of the city’s central mosque in a dream represents a letter carrier,
or a guide calling people to God’s path. Falling down from the top of a minaret

vicious expressions, when one already has a pious wife with whom he enjoys
peace and tranquility. It also means losing one’s authority or control. Climbing
a wooden minaret and calling people to prayers in a dream means attaining
authority and rising in station through hypocrisy. Sitting alone on the top of
a minaret, praising God’s glory and glorifying His oneness in a dream means
becoming famous, while the loud glorifications mean that one’s distress and
sorrow will be lifted by God’s leave. The minaret of a mosque in a dream also
represents the chief minister of the ruler, or it could represent the muezzin.
