In a dream, a ring represents peace, tranquility, authority, a wife, a child,

ring in a dream, it means that she will give birth to a son. The king’s ring in a
dream represents his kingdom. Cutting off a tight ring with a pair of pliers in
a dream means the end to one’s authority. Any incrustations on one’s ring in a

mean the death of his child, or the loss of his business. A broken ring in a dream
means divorce. Wearing a ring made of iron in a dream means that one will
receive benefits though with great strain on him. Wearing a golden ring carry ing

and getting nothing out of it. Rings made of ivory or from an animal’s horn in
a dream represent glad tidings for a woman. Seeing someone in authority
stamping a document with his ring as a seal in a dream means that one will

a silver ring sees himself offering it as a gift to whoever he wishes in a dream,
it means that he will preside over an honorable post. Wearing the governor’s
ring in a dream means an appointment as a dignitary, or inheriting such a rank
from one’s father. If one’s father does not hold such a position, then it means the
opposite of one’s wishes. Finding a lost ring in a dream means earning money
from a foreign land, or having a new born son, or it could mean a marriage to
a righteous woman. If the stone of one’s ring seems unstable in the dream, it

that one maybe removed from his job. If a woman sees herself removing her
wedding ring in a dream, it means the death of either her husband or of a close
relative. A ring in a dream also connotes a band, an encumbrance, or a shackle.
If one’s ring disappears and only the stone remains in the dream, it means that
once the responsibilities are gone, good memories of the person will remain. A
man wearing a golden ring in a dream represents innovation, and the results
will bring about afflictions, betrayal, or a revolt. Wearing a tight ring in the
dream means that one will be let off from a vicious woman, or that he will be
spared from a wicked duty. A borrowed wedding ring in a dream represents an

sometime in his little finger, then in his middle finger, then in his ring finger
without his doing in the dream, it means that his wife will betray him with
another man. If he sells his ring for pennies or a handful of sesame, or for little
flour in a dream, it means that he will separate from his wife, though they will
have respect for one another, or it could mean that he will offer her a good
financial arrangement. Receiving a ring that is inlaid with a precious stone from
one’s son in a dream represents the good character and qualities of such a son.
A stone which is made from worthless glass beads in the dream denotes a weak
authority. A ring that is inlaid with a green sapphire in the dream means
begetting an intelligent son who will become a great man of knowledge. A
wooden ring in a dream represents a hypocritical woman. If a woman is offered

it means that she will give birth to a son. If the ring in one’s dream is interpreted
to mean money or clothing, then it represents one’s status and high esteem his
field. Receiving a ring as a gift in a dream also means happy news, or a marriage
to a beautiful woman. Seeing an atheist who publicly brags about his actions and
thoughts wearing a ring and turning its stone toward the palm of his hand in
a dream, it means that he engages in sodomy. If a believer turns his ring inside
during prayers in a dream, then it represents his modesty. Wearing a ring that
carries two gemstones, one to the outside and the other to the inside in a dream
means that one may chair two important appointments, material and a spiritual
ones, or inner and outer ones. Wearing a ring with a carnelian-red stone in a
dream means an end to one’s poverty. If a pious person, a religious person or an
ascetic receives a silver ring from God Almighty in a dream, it means his
salvation on the Day of Judgment. If he receives a silver ring from God’s
Messenger (uwbp) in a dream, it represents a gift of a greater knowledge. If it
is gold, iron, or copper, then it has negative consequences, because iron rings
represent the chains of the dwellers of hell-fire. Somehow, to wear a simple band
in one’s dream is better than wearing a heavy ring. Heavy rings in a dream also
may connote an assassination or deceit. On the other hand, large rings in a
dream also can be interpreted to mean something great, or something which
entails sizable benefits. Lead rings in a dream mean weak authority. If one
sends his ring to some people who returns it to him in the dream, it means that
he is asking to betroth someone from such a family, but his request will be
declined. If one sees his ring being forcefully pulled out from his finger in a
dream, it means that he will lose his rank or whatever the ring represents to
him. If one loses his ring in a dream, it means that he will experience something

Satan
Seeing the accursed one in a dream means evil, sin, lying, stealing,
jealousy, sorcery, separation between husband and wife, disdain from performing
one’s prayers, or it could mean preaching falsehood. Seeing the accursed one in
a dream also means propagation of an invented world or ideas. If in a dream one
becomes Satan, it is interpreted as loosing one’s sight. If one kills Satan in a
dream, it means that he will deceive and conquer a deceiver and an evil person.
In a dream, the accursed Satan also represents an enemy of the body and the
soul. He deceives, cheats, disbelieves, as well as he is ungrateful, jealous,
capricious, arrogant, heedless, impetuous, or he could represent a leader, a
minister, a judge, a policeman, a man of knowledge, a preacher, a hypocrite, or
one’s own family and children. Seeing Satan in a dream also means villainy, dirt,
passion and sexual devilry. If one sees Satan attacking him in a dream, it means
that he earns his money from usury. If Satan touches him in a dream, it means
that someone is slandering or trying to deceive his wife. If one is sick or under
stress, and if he sees Satan touching him in a dream, it means that he will put
his hand on material wealth. If one is suffering from the consequences of devilry
while he recognizes his trials and remains steadfast in remembering God
Almighty and calling upon Him for help in a dream, it means that he has many
enemies tryingto deceive him or to destroy him, though they will eventually fail,
and in turn, they will be defeated by God’s leave. If one sees Satan following him
in a dream, it means that an enemy is pursuing him to deceive him, and
consequently one will lose his status, rank and the benefits of his knowledge.
If one sees himself inwardly talking with Satan in a dream, it means that he will
join hands with his own enemy, and his strike will be against the righteous
people, though he will ultimately fail. If one sees Satan teaching him something
in a dream, it means that he will fabricate a story, speak falsehood, or recite
poems filled with lies. If one sees that Satan has descended upon him in a dream,
it means that he engages in falsehood and sin. If one sees himself presiding over
a band of satans, controlling them, commanding them, and if they obey him in
the dream, it means that he will receive a seat of honor and he will be feared
by his friend and foes. If one ties Satan with chains in a dream, it means that
he will win victory in his life together with might and fame. If one sees himself
deceived by a group of satans in a dream, it means that he will suffer financial
losses or lose his job. If Satan strips someone from his clothing in a dream, it
means that the latter will lose a battle to an enemy. If one sees Satan whispering
something in his ear in dream, it means that he will be dismissed from his job.
If one sees himself defying and fighting Satan in a dream, it means that he is
a true and a strong believer who obeys his Lord and who holds fast to his
religious obligations. If Satan frightens him in a dream, it means that the latter
is a sincere deputy and a protege of God Almighty, and that God will safeguard
him from any fear of the accursed Satan or his army. If one sees a meteor or a
flame shooting at Satan in the skies in a dream, it means that there is an enemy
of God Almighty in that locality. If that person is a ruler, then his secrets will
be exposed, and if he is ajudge, it means that a just punishment will befall him
for his injustice. If one sees Satan happy in a dream, it means that he engages
in sensuality, passion and loathsome actions. In general, Satan is a weak enemy,
if one sees himself fighting him with resoluteness in a dream, it shows that he
is a religious and a pious person. If Satan swallows someone or penetrates inside
his body in dream, it means a fright, losses and sufferings. Satan in a dream also
represents builders or ocean divers who work as spies. Seeing them in a dream
also could mean backbiting or slandering. If one sees himself as a Satan in a
dream, it means that he constantly frowns with people and that he is quick to
harm them, or that he may work at cleaning sewers, or perhaps he may perish
in a fire, or die as a heedless person.
