Khimar
(A piece of fabric worn by some women as part of their headdress; To
conceal one’s face; Attire; Cap; Garb; Mantle; Mantilla; Veil) In a dream, a
khimar represents a husband, protection or an ornament. The extent of its size
shows the man’s prosperity. Its finesse connotes clarity and the color white
represents honor and dignity. If a woman sees herself wearing a mantilla in a
dream, it means maliciousness, a bad omen, or rancor and falsehood of female
companions that might cause difficulties, or separate between a husband and
a wife. If the khimar is made of black torn fabric in the dream, it means poverty
of one’s husband, or his being natural, or unsophisticated. Damage to one’s veil
in a dream means difficulties affecting one’s marriage, loss of business or a
calamity caused by a guardian, a father or a brother. If a man sees himself
wearing a mask in a dream, it means that he will commit adultery with his
servant. If a woman sees herself removing her veil in public in a dream, it means
that she will be tried with a calamity that will take away her sense of shame.
If she loses her khimar in the dream, it means that she may lose her husband.
If she finds it again in the dream, it means that her husband will return to her.
In a dream, a khimar also represents one’s religion. (Also see Veil; Yashmak)

(Adornment; Attire; Costume; Garb; Veil) In a dream, one’s apparel vary
in meaning depending on their contents, colors or type, etcetera. Wearing one’s
garb in the winter in a dream is better than wearing it in the summer. Wrapping

represents a man and a leader. An attire for a scholar, or a merchant, or a leader
in a dream represents his trade through which one earns his livelihood and
which protects him from adversities. If one’s apparel is dirty in the dream, then
it reflects his life and appearance. If one wears a beautiful garb in the
summertime in a dream, it means that he is ostentatious, arrogant and
vainglorious. It also could mean that he is under great pressure and suffering
from a painful distress, for the heat of a summer in a dream signifies distress.
If a woman sees herself wearing a man’s apparel in a dream, it means piety and
success in her material and spiritual life. If a man sees himself wearing a
woman’s apparel in a dream, it means that he will be afflicted with fear,
depression, subjugation, humiliation, trials, then all of it will be lifted away
from him. (Also see Veil; Yashmak)
