it represents honor, longevity and respect. Whatever comes out of one's nose in
a dream is good and whatever goes into it in a dream may not be beneficial. A
bleeding nose in a dream means receiving or giving money. If one's nose is cut
off in a dream, it means circumcision, falling in rank, or it could mean his death.
Inhaling water and clearing one's nose in a dream represents someone who

meaning than the upper lip. It is also said that lips in a dream represent one's
relatives. The upper lip represents the male relatives and the lower lip represents
the female relatives. Sealed lips in a dream mean difficulties or adversities. The
mouth in a dream represents a key, one's livelihood, the conclusion of one's life,
death, illness, strength, a coffer, a marketplace, a door attendant, a chief
minister, or a door. If one's mouth is sealed in a dream, it means a scandal. One's

allegation. An elongated tongue of a judge in a dream means clarity and justice.
A tied-up tongue in a dream means poverty, sickness, depression, a calamity,
or it could represent an unworthy person. Having two tongues in a dream means
praiseworthiness and acquiring two types of knowledge. Seeing what is inside
one's mouth in a dream means exposing one's ills. Biting on one's tongue in a
dream means regret. Watching one's tongue in a dream means protecting
oneself from pitfalls. Carrying one's tongue by hand in a dream means receiving indemnity for bodily injury or receiving blood money. If one sees his throat
blocked in such a way that he could not speak in a dream, it denotes his
stinginess toward his own family. Ifone sees one of his limbs speaking against
him in a dream, it means that someone will report him to the authorities or
become a witness against him in court. If one sees himself in a dream riding over
the shoulders of his enemy, it means that he will commit a wrongdoing or a
shameful act. If there is no enmity between them, and if he sees himself riding
over the shoulders of a friend in a dream, it means earning something from him.
Carrying something over one's shoulders in a dream means debts. If one sees
himself carrying a hypocrite over his shoulders in a dream, it means that he may
work in a lumberyard or carry wood to earn a living. One's shoulders in a dream
also represent his parents, brothers, partners, station, or beauty. Anything that
affects them in a dream will manifest in any of the above. In a dream, one's neck
represents an embrace, a donation with terms, a legal will, or a conditional
endowment. The neck and the shoulders in a dream represent one's trust or
trustworthiness. A healthy and strong neck in a dream means trustworthiness
and ability to meet one's obligations. Wounds, festering or purulence in one's
neck in a dream mean betraying God's trust. If one sees a nice bird sitting over
his neck in a dream it means benefits or an alibi. If it is not a gentle bird, then
it becomes a bad omen, or a rebuke. If one sees a necklace, a rope, a wire, or a
thread around his neck in a dream, it means fulfilling one's promise, acquiring
knowledge and honor. A long neck in a dream could mean four things, that is:
justice, leadership, attainment of one's goals or calling people to prayers. The
left hand represents one's helper, friend, savings, or a compassionate relative.
Longhands in a dream represent a charitable person, or a capable one, and short
hands mean the opposite. Long hands also could mean longevity, wealth,
helpers, borrowing money, governing, fulfilling one's commands, profits from
one's business or having business sense. If one's hand is cut off in a dream, it
means the death of his brother, his father, his partner, or a close friend or his
assistant. If the right hand is cut off in a dream, it means a vow one takes to
deprive someone from his rights. It also means loss of one's job or cutting off one's
blood ties, or it could mean that he has committed a theft. If a righteous person
sees his hand cut off in a dream, it means abstaining from wrongdoing or
eschewing evil. If one's left hand is cut off in a dream, it means reestablishing
his relationship with his family and rediscovering the benefits of good qualities.
If one's hand is broken in a dream, it means an adversity, illness, loss of
business, or loss of a dear person. The cracking skin of one's hands in a dream
means loss of wealth. Stretched hands in a dream means ill caused by a close

a family reunion, or a wedding. If one's hands are trembling in a dream, it means
weakness, illness, old age or longevity. If one's hands feel dry in a dream" it
means that such a person does little good in his life. If one enters his hand under
his arm's pit in a dream, then brings it out bright and radiant in a dream, it
means that he will acquire knowledge and may develop wisdom. Otherwise, it
could mean profits. If he brings forth his hand from under his arm's pit in the
dream, and if it reveal a flame in his dream, it represents a manifestation of
divine power and a blessed victory. If one pulls his hand from under his arm's
pit and it brings forth water in the dream, it means that he will receive great
benefits and growth in his life, or perhaps that a long awaited traveller will
shortly arrive to his doorsteps. If a right-handed person sees himself being left-
handed in a dream, it means hardships. If one sees himself walking with his
hands in a dream, it represents his dependence on a relative to provide for his
needs. If one's hands say something nice to him in a dream, it means financial comfort. If one's hand is cut-off in a dream as punishment for a sin, it could mean
marriage, a bad wife, or lack of trustworthiness. If one washes his hands with
soap in a dream, it means that he will abandon something he initiated, or that
his intention will not be fulfilled. If a form of life or a good spirit comes out from
one's hands in a dream, it indicates benefits. If such a life is a malignant one,
then it means the opposite. If one takes someone by the hand in a dream, it
means that he will help him and save his life. If something sprouts in one's hands
or if one's hands turn into iron, or a vegetable in a dream, it means negative
repercussions in wakefulness. Hands in a dream are interpreted in twelve ways:
that is a brother, a sister, a partner, a son, a compassionate friend, one's
strength, wealth, leadership, money, proof, a craft, or work. The condition in
which the palm of one's hand looks in a dream indicates the state of one's health
and fitness. Clapping one's hands in a dream could either mean joy and
happiness, or it could mean nothing. Wearing a glove in one's hand in a dream
means ceasing the course of wrongdoing. Slapping one's own face with both
hands means sorrow, sadness or calamities. Hitting the back of one's hand into
the palm of the other hand in a dream means separation. In a dream, the fingers
of the right hand represent the daily five time prayers. The thumb represents
the pre-dawn prayer, the index represents the midday prayer, the middle finger
represents the mid-afternoon prayer, the ring finger represents the sunset
prayer, and the little finger represents the evening prayer. As for the fingers of
the left hand in a dream, they are interpreted to represent one's nephews. To
cross or intertwine one's fingers in a dream means difficulties and poverty. One's
toes in a dream represent the beauty of his character and denote his straight-
forwardness. Any defect or crookedness in them in a dream will mirror in
wakefulness. If a toe or a finger is bitten or crushed in a dream, it denotes evil
or perhaps an accident. If one sees milk coming forth from his thumb and blood
coming forth from his index finger in a dream, it means that he will marry a
mother, then will he marry her daughter, or it could mean that he will rape the
mother, then her daughter. Cracking one's fingers in a dream means exchanging
bad words between relatives or being sarcastic or making fun of other people.
If one's fingers are paralyzed in a dream, it means that he has committed an
awful sin. If one sees his right hand paralyzed in a dream, it means injustice
toward a weak person or inflicting losses upon an innocent person. If one's left
hand is paralyzed in a dream, it means the death of his brother or sister. As for
the fingernails in a dream, they denote beauty, courage, strength, a religious
covenant, or money. If one's fingernails are chipped, extracted, or broken in a
dream, they means loss of money and strength. If they look nicely clipped in a
dream, they mean both spiritual and material benefits. Long nails at the point
of a near breaking in a dream mean distress, sorrow, fears and depression. If
one's nail becomes a claw in a dream, it means rising against one's enemy and
opposition. If one does not have fingernails in a dream, it means bankruptcy.
If one's fingernails turn yellow, green or blue or if they are broken in the dream,
it means death. Clipping them in a dream means dispelling calamities or
distress. If a thorn or a chip of wooden enters under one's fingernails in a dream,
it means loss of power or money. If one sees himself in a dream knocking his
fingernails against his teeth in a dream, it means committing a despicable and
a loathsome act. As for seeing one's chest in a dream, if one sees himself having
a broad and a nice looking chest (See Chest), it means repentance of a sinner,
or being eager and willing to follow the truth and to comply with it, or to make

his daughter. Man's breast in a dream means a woman, and woman's breasts
in a dream represents a man. Breasts in a dream mean five things: a little boy,
a little girl, a servant, a friend, or a brother. One's abdomen in a dream means
money, children, relatives or prosperity. If one sees his abdomen being cut open and washed, then stitched back to normal in the dream, it means blessings from
God Almighty, forgiveness for one's sins, and it could mean that one will receive
spiritual guidance. One's abdomen in a dream also denotes his good conduct,
amiable character, blessed enterprises and protection from the evil of the
accursed Satan. If one sees a newborn son or daughter coming out of his
abdomen in a dream, it means that such a child will be born and will grow to
govern that household. As for one's livers in a dream, they represent knowledge, money or children. If a man of knowledge sees his livers flying away from
his body like birds in a dream, it means that he will forget his knowledge, or if
one has children, they may die, or perhaps the government may seize his
property even if he has nothing. If one sees himself eating his own livers in a
dream, it means earning his livelihood. If they are cooked in the dream, then
they represent a lawful income, or they could mean gobbling the property of
one's own children. Ifa liver is removed in a dream, it means the death of a child.
Removing a liver in a dream also could mean injustice. One's kidney in a dream
means having a good business connection, dispelling adversities, distress,
trouble, safety from danger, a husband and a wife, one's parents, or it could

courageous and a hard working man who serves someone in authority, or he may
become a personal guard, or an assistant to the governor. As for one's lungs in
a dream, they represent joy, happiness, or sorrow. Donating a lung to someone

As for seeing one's intestines in a dream, they represent earnings, leadership,
a child, unlawful money, intercession, hatred, livelihood, work or they could
mean changing one's mind about doing something which could cause a disaster.

interpretation is given to the intestines or the umbilicus or the navel and the
three of them represent one's relationship with his wife. As for the ribs (See Ribs)
in a dream, they represent women. The loins or the spinal column in a dream
represent one's progeny. One's back in a dream (See Back) represents his strength,

one sees himself carrying a heavy load in a dream, it means that he is carrying
his sins. If he carries merchandise in the dream, it means debt. If he carries
woods in the dream, it means backbiting others. If one sees himself carrying a
dead person on his back in a dream, it means that he takes care of orphans. As
for one's heart (See Heart) in a dream, it means intelligence, vigilance, aware-
ness, guidance, clarity and piety. One's buttocks and the rear end in a dream
represent his earnings, job and profits. If one sees himself licking someone's rear
end or buttocks in the dream, it means giving high praises to an unworthy and
an impious person or commending him. The male and female sexual organs
in a dream represent a good father or one's profession. What comes or goes into
the male organ or woman's vagina in a dream of good or bad will reflect in their
lives. Seeing one's penis in a dream means children, money, pride, state, or
authority. The testicles represent one's livelihood, one's daughters, protection
and maintenance. The meaning of the penis and the testicles may be transposed
in the dream interpretation. One's anus in a dream means a pouch, a store, a
resting place, or a coffer. The knee represents one's capital or one's attendance
to his work and earning his livelihood. As for the legs, they too represent one's
capital, paying attention to one's work and conduct. Man's leg represents a
woman, and a woman's leg represents a man. If one's leg turns into wood or iron in a dream, it means that he will fail to earn his livelihood.
One's feet represent his parents, his livelihood, a journey or his wealth. (See Feet; Foot).
If one foot is broken or cut off in a dream, it means either the death of a parent or loss of half of one's capital. If one's feet turn into iron or copper in a dream, it means
longevity. If they turn into glass in the dream, they denote his short life. The

Masjid
(arb. God’s House; Mosque; Place of worship) In Arabic, the word masjid
means a place of prostration, while the word Jami means a place of gathering.
A masjid or a mosque in a dream represents a scholar and its gates represent
men of knowledge and the guardians, or the attendants of God’s House. Building
a masjid in a dream means emulating the traditions of God’s Prophet, upon
whom be peace, fostering the unity of one’s family, or becoming a judge, should
one qualify for such an office. A masjid filled with people in a dream represents
a gnostic, a man of knowledge and wisdom, or a preacher who invites people
to his house, advises them, brings their hearts together, teaches them the
precepts of their religion and explains the wisdom behind the divine revelations.
Seeing a masjid being demolished in a dream means that such a gnostic, or
religious scholar and devout believer will die in that locality. In a dream, if the
roof of a masjid caves in, it means that one will indulge in an abominable action.
If one sees a stranger performing his prayers in a masjid in a dream, it means
that the Imam of that masjid will dies from a terminal illness. If one enters a
masjid in the company of a group of people, and if they dig a small hole for him
inside the masjid in the dream, it means that he will get married. If one’s house
becomes a masjid in a dream, it means that he will attain piety, purity of heart,
escetic detachment and an honor he will receive from his brethren. He will also
call upon them to follow what is true and to abstain from what is false. If a masjid
is transformed into a bathhouse in a dream, it means that a chaste person will
turn corrupt or become heedless. A masjid in a dream also represents a
marketplace or a business. If one has to climb up a staircase to reach the masjid
in a dream, then the masjid represents a thrifty person who does not like to
share what he has. If one has to climb down a staircase to reach the masjid in
a dream, it means that his needs will be satisfied. If a masjid in the city is moved
to a remote village in a dream, it means stagnation of one’s business, being
ostracized from one’s community, or it could mean legal complications related
to one’s inheritance. If a ruler builds a house for God Almighty or a masjid in
a dream, it means that he will be a just ruler and he will govern his subject by
the divine laws. If a religious scholar builds a masjid in a dream, it means that
he will author a book that will benefit others, or delivers a commentary on a
complex religious issue, or if he is wealthy, it means that he will pay the alms
tax due on his assets. Building a masjid in a dream also means getting married,
or conceiving a child who will grow to become a righteous and a knowledgeable
scholar, or if one is poor, it means that he will become rich. Otherwise, it means
that one will serve God’s House and fill it with invocations, supplications,
serving the interest of the community, leading the people to unity and love, and
teaching them to value obedience to God’s commands. Building a masjid in a
dream also could mean becoming a real estate agent, or repenting from one’s
sins, or receiving guidance on God’s path, or to die as a martyr, hence, what one
builds for God Almighty in a dream, represents his house in paradise. Such
interpretation applies if one builds a masjid following the proper procedures
and with lawfully earned money, and using proper materials. Otherwise,
building it with what is unlawful of money or materials in the dream, or
changing the direction of the prayer niche, etcetera, then one’s dream will carry
the opposite meaning. If one builds a masjid or a fellowship house in a dream,
it means that he will seek the path of knowledge and wisdom, or that he will
attend a pilgrimage during that same year, or establish a permanent business,
such as a hotel, a bathhouse or a shop, etcetera. Building the roof of a masjid
in a dream means taking care of orphans, or sponsoring homeless children.
Expanding a masjid in a dream means increase in one’s good deeds, repentance
from a sin, adopting good conduct, or being just. Seeing oneself inside a new
masjid one does not recognize in a dream means attending the pilgrimage to
God’s House in Mecca during that same year, or joining religious circles to learn
about one’s religion. If one’s shop becomes a masjid, or if the masjid becomes a
shop in the dream, it denotes lawful earnings, or it could mean mixing lawful
and unlawful earnings. A forsaken masjid or mosque in a dream means
intentionally ignoring the value of gnostics and religious scholars, or denying
the necessity to command what is good and to eschew what is evil. A forsaken
masjid in a dream also denotes the presence of ascetics who have renounced the
world and its people and care less about their material possessions. A known
mosque in a dream represents the city where it is erected. For instance, the Aqsa
mosque in a dream represents Jerusalem, the Sacred mosque represents Mecca,
the Prophet’s Mosque (uwbp) represents Medina, the Omayyad mosque represents
Damascus, Al-Azhar mosque represents Cairo and the Blue mosque represents
Istanbul, etcetera. A known mosque in a dream also could represent the
renowned scholars who live in that place, or the ruler of that country, or any
of his ministers. If one enters a mosque and immediately after crossing the
entrance gate, he prostrates himself to God Almighty in the dream, it means
that he will be given the opportunity to repent for his sins. If one comes to a
masjid and finds its doors locked, then if someone opens the door to him in a
dream, it means that he will help someone in paying his debt, then extol his good
virtues in public. If one enters a mosque riding on an animal in a dream, it means
that he will cut off his connection with his relatives, leave them behind and
forbid them to follow him. If one dies in a masjid in a dream, it means that he
will die as a true penitent. If the carpet or the straw mat of a mosque becomes
a shredded rag in the dream, it means that the community of that masjid is
divided and corrupt. Building a masjid in a dream also means overcoming one’s
enemy. Entering the Sacred Mosque in Mecca in a dream means arriving with
one’s bride to their new home and it could mean fulfillment of a promise, being
truthful, dispelling one’s fear and reaching the shore of safety. (Also see Minaret;
Minbar; Mosque)

dream represent the graves of martyrs. Yellow represents strain, sickness,
repentance, a son, or it could mean chivalry. (Also see Flag; Garment)

shirt or a blouse in a dream, it also means her marriage. A torn shirt in a dream
means divorce. If one’s shirt is torn in a dream, it means breaking up a business

happiness and the enjoyment of a rich life in this world. The same could reflect
the state of her husband. Wearing a green or a white shirt in a dream denotes
piety. Wearing a blue shirt in a dream may not be praiseworthy. Wearing a red
shirt in a dream means fame, while a yellow shirt in a dream means an illness.
A wet shirt in a dream means obstacles in one’s travels. If one’s wet shirt dries

without a collar, a pocket, buttons, or button holes in a dream means wearing
one’s shroud at the time of his preparation for burial. Wearing a shirt with
stripes in a dream means travels, or it could mean performing a pilgrimage.
Wearing a shirt that does not properly cover one’s body in the dream means
falling short in performing one’s religious duties. Wearing a black shirt in a

dream means reversal of one’s condition, or having a loathsome and a forbidden
type of sexual relationship with one’s wife from the anus. A shirt in a dream also
represents one’s house or shelter. If one’s shirt is torn in half vertically in a
dream, it means relief from anxiety or depression. If one’s shirt is torn from the
back in a dream, it means that one will suffer from defamation, or be falsely
accused of sexually harassing or abusing a woman. If one’s shirt is torn from the
front in the dream, then it becomes a proof of his guilt. Seeing the shirt of the
Prophet Joseph (uwbp) in a dream means that an emissary of good intent will
bring glad tidings, and for someone who is suffering from eye problems, it means

Flesh
(Meat) Human flesh in a dream represents one’s health, strength, earnings,
sickness or one’s shop, piety, religious attendance, fear of wrongdoing, scruti¬
nizing the difference between the lawful and the unlawful, patience, forbear¬
ance, anger, distress, sexual desires, suffering from adversities and punishment
for sins. If one’s flesh grows bigger than what one actually has in a dream, it
means prosperity, and if one is sick, it means recovering from his illness. If one
sees himself having less flesh than what he actually has in a dream, it means
stagnation of his business or loss of his money and property. If a devoted
worshiper sees growth in his physical fitness in a dream, it means slackening
in his devotion and occupying himself more in material gains and worldly
pleasures. If one sees himself emaciated in a dream, then it means the opposite.
Buying a piece of human flesh in a dream means having a stagnant merchandise.
If a judge or a ruler finds that his flesh has grown in a dream, it means that he
will become famous for his verdicts, rulings or that he will become rich, or
perhaps he might grow in fury or develop anger. Growth in one’s fitness in a
dream also denotes happiness, joy and celebrations, while emaciation in a
dream represents distress and adversities. If one sees his flesh black or blue, or

or a punishment for his sins. Eating the growth of one’s own flesh in a dream
means usury, or living on income from usury and saving one’s capital. Eating

Hell-fire
Entering hell-fire in a dream means committing major sins such as
murder or adultery. If one comes out of it unharmed in the dream, then it
represents worldly adversities. If one sees the fire of hell coming near him in a
dream, it means difficulties, debts, losses, fines and adversities from which one
will not be able to escape. If one sees himself entering hell-fire and holding his
sword unsheathed in a dream, it means that he speaks evil of others and
commits abominable actions against his own soul. The same interpretation
applies if one enters it smiling in his dream. Finding oneself prisoner in hell not
knowing when was he incarcerated in the dream means constraint, poverty,
deprivation, failure to pray, fast or to remember his Lord. Walking across
burning coal in a dream means exceeding one’s bound regarding people’s rights.
Eating food from hell means becoming a tyrant and a blood thirsty person. If one
sees himself inside hell-fire, where his eyes turn dark-blue and his face charcoal
black in the dream, it means that he befriends God’s enemy and consents to their
deception and chicanery. Consequently, he will surely be humiliated and
despised by people, and in the hereafter, he will suffer the consequences of his
sins. Seeing hell in a dream means that one should avoid incurring the wrath
of a ruler. Entering hell in a dream also means notoriety, or becoming known
as an evil person. It also means heedlessness and pursuing one’s indulgence in
abominable actions. Whatever knowledge such a person acquires will bear evil
consequences. Hell in a dream also represents loss of one’s prestige, status and
it means poverty after wealth, despair after comfort, unlawful earnings, inso¬
lence, and if it leads to an illness, it will end in a shocking de ath as a punishment.

religion, innovation, absence of truth, indulgence in what is forbidden, stinginess,
denying the Day of Judgment, a blazing fire forthe devils, joining with agroup
of evildoers in committing atrocities, denying the sovereignty of God Almighty
and ascribing human characteristics to Him. Seeing Malik, the guardian angel
of hell-fire in a dream means receiving guidance after heedlessness. If one sees
Malik coming toward him in the dream, it means his salvation and the
restoration of his faith. However, if one sees Malik turning his back to him or
going away from him in the dream, it means that he will commit an act that will
deliver him to the blazing fire of hell. The angels in charge of punishing the
sinners in hell in a dream represent the authority, soldiers, or tax collectors. If
one enters hell-fire then comes out of it in his dream, it means that, God willing,
his life will culminate in paradise. If he sees his limbs reprimanding him in the
dream, it means that one’s own body is telling him something, or admonishing
and trying to awaken his conscious to the realities of the hereafter and the Day
of Reckoninh. (Also see Bathhouse; Fire; Malik; Mental hospital)
