religious scholar, a learned person, a lawyer, or a judge in a dream means to need

sins and bigotry. (Also see Advice; Beggar)

Thunder
(Curse; Omen; Policeman; Warning sign) In a dream, thunder without
rain means a scare, a warning or an ultimatum. It also represents good
promises, gracious orders, or the sound of drums. Seeing thunder in a dream
means repayment of one’s debts, and for a sick person, it means recovering from
his illness. Thunder, lightening and rain in a dream represent fear for a
traveller, or the greed of a merchant. Hearing about an awesome blast in a
distant land in a dream means that the dwellers of that place will be struck with
a major calamity or sudden mass casualties. The sound of thunder in a dream
represents a murder, a fight, a dispute, an argument, lack of religious atten¬
dance, loss of money, or the release of a prisoner. A thunderstorm with rain when
needed in a dream represents a good harvest for that year. Hearing a thunderous
sky without seeing the lightening in a dream means an assassination, deception,
falsehood or slander. Hearing the sound of thunder in a dream also means being
reprimanded by a higher authority. There are no benefits in hearing the sound
of thunder in the darkness without seeing lightening in the dream, this would
be interpreted as apostasy or disloyalty. This can be particularly true when it
is accompanied with an earthquake. If one hears thunder in its season in a
dream, it means good news and blessings. Otherwise, out of its usual season,
thunder in a dream represents an army on the move, or a foreign occupation of
a country. Hearing the sound of thunder in a dream also represents hymns,
praising God Almighty, glorifying Him, or it could mean a sickness, fear,
deafness, or the sound of drums in a wedding. If the one seeing the dream is an
atheist, it means that he will be guided and have faith in God Almighty. If he
is a sinner, it means that he will repent for his sins. Hearing the roaring of
thunder in a dream on the first day of October means death. If it is heard during
the first six days of that month, it means benefits, or lower prices, but if it is
heard near the end of the month, then it means a plague or a disaster. Hearing
the sound of thunder at any other time during the month of October in a dream
means evil. If it is heard during the month of November in a dream, it means
blessings for the land, prosperity, the spreading of God’s words in a new land,
the falling of a comet in a populated area, the death of a leader, a pollution that
will devastate bird life, or a heavy rainstorm with limited damages. If the sound
of thunder is heard during the first ten days of December in a dream, it means
the death of famous people within the Western hemisphere, inflation, rising
prices, degradation of social behavior, decrease in harvest, inflation, or playing
dirty politics. Hearing the sound of thunder during the last seven days of
December in a dream means that the winter will be cold and dry, though the
forthcoming spring will be cool and wet. Hearing the sound of thunder in the first
six days of the month of January in a dream means that a major event will take
place, such as an earthquake, death, destruction, or a war in Iraq. If this dream
is witnessed during the last week of the month of January, then it represents
a solar eclipse, or the death of a Western leader, a plague, or the birth of a planet
that signifies the destruction of a great city on earth. Hearing the sound of
thunder on the first day of February in a dream means a good harvest, lowering
or stabilization of prices, discovering a new disease in the East, death in the
seas, heavy rains in Mecca, fear, devastation and famines in Ethiopia, or that
a Western leader will move his armies to the East and control the land for a short
period of time. Hearing the sound of thunder during the first six days of March
in a dream means good harvest, lowering of prices, stabilization of the market
and prosperity. Hearing the sound of thunder at the end of March in a dream
means famines, destruction, or that a swarm of locusts may devastate the lands,
or it could mean a drought that will kill African cattle. Also in this type of
dreams, if the sound of thunder is heard on the twenty first day of April, it means
that Western armies will drive East and establish military bases there. If the
first of April happens to be a Sunday, then March will be a month of great fear
and disturbances in the East, meanwhile, a conflict between the Western armies
will end by the death of a Western leader and the defeat of his army. If the dream
is seen on the eleventh day of April, it may mean that earthquakes or cyclones
will devastate many countries. If the dream takes place on the thirteenth day
of April, then it means that inflation will strike and price hiking will burden the
common people. If the dream is seen on the seventeenth day of April, it purports
a major political dispute between the leaders of the world, and if it is seen on
the twenty second day of April, it means that a disastrous evil will contaminate
many societies. If the dream takes place on the twenty third day of the month
of April, it means abundance, falling prices, fertility in the lands, while if it is
seen on the twenty fifth day of April, it will mean price hiking. If it is seen on
the twenty ninth day of April, it means that blessings, fertility, relief and joy
will spread in the land. If the sound of thunder is heard during the first nine
days of the month of May in a dream, it means the death of noble and leading
people in Turkey. During that period, rain will be in abundance, the land will
be fertile and the farms most productive. If the dream takes place between the
tenth and the twentieth day of the month of May, it means plagues. If the sound
of thunder is heard in a dream during the first ten days of June, it means the
death of renowned scholars, people of knowledge, religious leaders, or noble
people in Egypt. Meanwhile, prices will fall, and abundance will ease the
economy into a major economic turnaround. If the dream is seen during the first
six days of July, it means that good rain will fall during the following December
and that the land will be fertile. During that year, several Western leaders will
die, and a war may take place in Persia. Meanwhile, evil will spread throughout
Egypt, and it will be brought about by its own leaders. If the dream takes place
during the last seven days of July, it means that peace will spread throughout
the earth, prices will fall in Iraq and in East Africa, and a new disease will affect
fruit trees, banana trees, date trees, though wheat will be available in abun¬
dance, even if the farmers were concerned about it in the early part of the year.
If the sound of thunder is heard during the month of August in a dream, it
means blessings for the people in Syria and the people of Azerbaijan on the
Caspian Sea. At that time, sea passages will be blockaded, the highways will be
forsaken and a war may take place in China. If the sound of thunder is heard
at the end of the month of August in a dream, it means the end of a drought in
Egypt, risingprices, death, earthquakes, or major political changes. If the sound
of thunder is heard during the first eight days of September in a dream, it
announces a drought during the early part of the year that will be followed by
heavy rains and results in a good harvest. It also means that a long and
destructive war will take place. If the thunder takes place on the tenth day of
September in one’s dream, then it means a drought in Morocco. God knows best
what He has reserved for His creation and He is the best of judges.
Thunderbolt: Thunderbolts in a dream are signs of punishment, illness or death.
If a thunderbolt hits and burns something in the dream, it means false rumors,

in a dream also means a warning for a sinner, the punishment for his crime,
devastation, calamities, diseases, tornados, plagues, a blast, a major political
shift, tyranny, decapitation, a bad death, inceneration, burining people alive,
or a robbery. If one is under surveillance, then seeing a thunderbolt in a dream
means a crackdown on his house or business. If thunderbolts strike people’s
homes in a dream, they mean the arrival of covetous and despicable criminals
in the company of decent and innocent people who are not aware of the true
identity of their companions. If thunderbolts strike the fields and damage the
crop in a dream, they represent taxes or an investigation. If one sees a town hit
and burnt with a thunderbolt in a dream, it means that an unjust governor will
rise in that town, and his government will bring fear, rising prices, economic
chaos, injustice or war. If a thunderbolt does not carry fire in the dream, then
it represents a new leader. (Also see Earthquake)

Table
(Dining table) A dining table with its food ready to serve in a dream means
blessings, accepting an invitation to dinner or lunch, financial comfort, status
and winning victory over one’s enemy. In this case, one’s enemy is hunger. The
food placed on the table represents a booty. Clearing the dinner table in a dream
means cessation of comfort and blessings. The dinning table of one’s house in
a dream represents his livelihood and sustenance, an important project that
requires the help of many people, or a great person who is gracious, true and
generous. Sitting on such a table in a dream means joining the company of such
great man. If the dining table is topped with clean food and fresh bread in the
dream, it means love between friends and brethren. To have little food and
some bread on the table in a dream means lack of such love between brethren.
Accepting the invitation to share a loaf of bread with someone in a dream means
love, unity and prescribing to the prophetic traditions. If one sees one or two
dishes on his table in a dream, it means profits for oneself and sustenance for
his dependents. Having good appetite in a dream means longevity. If the dining
table is cleared after one’s meal in the dream, it denotes the conclusion of one’s
life. If a crowd of people sits on a table to partake their meal in a dream, they
represent one’s dependent. If two opponents sit on the same table in a dream,
it means war, and particularly if their is broiled meat and herbs on the table.
The dining table in the dream then represents the battlefield, and eating their
meal means fighting. A dining table in a dream also represents piety. If one
shares his meal in a dream, it means that he will meet new friends and enjoy
their company, then a conflict will rise concerning his livelihood and earnings.

Arabic months
(Lunar months: 1- Muharram; 2- 3- Rabi-'uIAwal; 4- Rabi'u
Thani'; 5-Jamadul Awwal; 6- Jamadu Thani'; 7- Rajab; 8- Sha'ban; 9- Ramadan;
10- Shawwal; 11- Zul-Qi'dah; 12- Zul-Hiliah) Seeing a dream during the month of Muharram means that the dream is most true as it is seen. Thus, having a
dream during the month of Muharram could be even called a vision and it never
fails. Such a dream means success, relief from difficulties, release from a prison,
or recovering from an illness. If the person had retreated from his town, he will
return to it. This interpretation is based on the story of God's prophet Jonah,
upon whom be peace, after he emerged from the belly of the whale. Perhaps the
person in the dream may face a great spiritual challenge in his life, or it could
mean the death of a great man of knowledge or the emergence of such a gnostic
or wise man in that city. If the person seeing the dream is a sinner, it means that
he will repent of his sins, for God Almighty has accepted the repentance ofAdam,
upon whom be peace, during that month. If the person in the dream is one who
hopes for a station of honor, he will attain it, because God Almighty has raised
the prophet Enoch (Idrls) upon whom be peace, to a high station during that
month. If a traveller sees a dream during that month, it means that he will safely
return home from a long journey, because it is the month in which the prophet
Noah upon whom be peace, was saved with his people, and it is the month in
which the arc settle on top of Mount Judiyyi. If the seer desires a son, then he
will beget a righteous son, because it is the month in which God's prophets
Abraham and Jesus, upon both of them be peace, were born. If the person seeing
the dream is suffering from tight financial circumstances and if he desired a way
out, it means that he will see the light or escape from the danger of his enemy,
because this is the month in which God's prophet Abraham was saved from the
fire ofNimrod, or perhaps, ifhe had followed a path of innovation and falsehood,
he will turn back to God Almighty and repent of his sin, because it is also the
month in which God Almighty forgave the prophet David, upon whom be peace.
If the person in the dream is impeached from his leadership position or stripped
from his status, he will return to his office and regain honor, because it is also
the month in which God Almighty returned the prophet Solomon to his kingdom.
If one is bedridden, it means that he will recover from his illness, because it is
the month in which the prophet Job (uwbp) recovered from his illness, or
perhaps it could mean that one will be sent as an emissary with a mission, or
as an ambassador, because it is during this month that God Almighty spoke to
His prophet Moses upon whom be peace. As for the second lunar month, known
in Arabic as Safar, having a dream during it could be interpreted as follows: If
one is pessimistic about what he saw, then it could mean the opposite. If he is
sick, it means recovering from his illness. If one is needy, it means that his needs
will be satisfied. If one is suffering from stress and worries, it means that they
can cause him no harm. If one sees his dream during the third lunar month,
known in Arabic as Rabt-rul Awwal, and if he is a merchant, it means that his
business will grow, prosper and that his money will be blessed or perhaps he may
conceive a child during that month. If he is under stress and worries, they will
be dispelled. Ifhe is persecuted or treated unjustly, he will end in a triumph,
or it could mean that he will hear good news, or he may be appointed as a
governor, or he may admonish people to do good and discard evil, for it is the
month in which God's Prophet Muhammad, upon whom be peace, was born to
this world. If one's dream takes place during the fourth lunar month, known in
Arabic as Rabi'u Thiini, and if it suggests glad tidings, then one may have to
wait and exercise patience, but ifit suggests evil, then such happening will come
fast. During this month, seeing a dream also means victory over one's enemy,
or it could mean conceiving a blessed son who will grow to become a gnostic, or
a hero, for it is during this month that the Imam 'Ali, may God bless his
countenance and be forever pleased with him was born. As for the fifth lunar
month, known in Arabic as Jamiidul Awwal, seeing a dream during this month
means that one should slow down or scrutinize his buying and selling, or it could
mean that he may lose his daughter or wife, for it is in this month that the daughter of God's Messenger, upon whom be peace, Fatima died. May God. be
forever pleased with her. If the dream happens during the sixth lunar month,
known in Arabic as Jamadu Thaw, and if the dream carries a good meaning,
it will come, but slow and one should not contradict it. If one sees this dream
during the seventh lunar month, known in Arabic as Rajab, it means that he
will gain honor and status, for it is the month of the prophet's Ascension (Mi'raj)
and his night journey to the seventh heaven. A dream during the eighth lunar
month, known in Arabic as Sha'ban, represents honor and ranks, for during
this month, every good deed will be honored. As for the ninth lunar month,
known in Arabic as Ramadan, in it, all difficulties will be suspended, evil will
be shun and stinginess will be dispelled. During this month all what is good will
manifest and bad dream will dissipate to become null and void. During this
month, the dreams of a believer may be differently interpreted than the dream
of a disbeliever. If one sees the month of Ramadan in his dream, his dream
means blessings, profits, commanding good and forbidding evil. If the person is
seeking knowledge, then knowledge will be given to him, for it is during this
great month that the Holy Qur'an was revealed. If the person is inflicted with
epilepsy, he will recover from it, for the devils and all evil spirits are shackled
and are rendered powerless during this month. As for the tenth lunar month,
known in Arabic as Shawwal, if one's dream suggests a war or a conflict, it
means that he will come first in it, and that he will triumph. If one sees the
month of Shawwal in his dream, it means that he will come out of difficulties
and finds happiness and devotion, for it is the month during which that God's
House, known as the Ka'aba was built. As for the eleventh lunar month, known
in Arabic as Zul-Qi'dah, if one's dream suggests a trip, then the person should
refrain from taking that trip or perhaps he should delay it for the better. He also
should guard himself where he lives. If the dream denote stress or worries, then
he should avoid whatever may cause them. However, if one's dream takes place
during the twelfth lunar month, known inArabic as Zul-Hijjah indicates a journey
then one may take it, or if it denotes a good business, one should seek it, for it
is a most blessed month and it is the month of festivities and sacrifices. If one
sees this month in his dream or sees himself offering sacrifices in it, or if he sees
himself praying the festival of Sacrifice prayers in it, his dream means paying
one's debts or fulfilling one's vows, repentance from sin, guidance or perhaps his
dream may indicate the death of great people of knowledge, the impeachment
of governors, the changing of governments, or it could mean a sudden war.

Mountain
A mountain in a dream represents a great and a noble man who
possesses a strong and a commanding voice, who commands good administration
of his affairs and an excellent leadership. It also can be interpreted as a son, a
difficult and austere woman, or a businessman. If the mountain is rounded or
flat in the dream, it means difficulties or distress. A mountain in a dream also
could mean achieving one’s goal, a journey, or fulfilling a promise. If the
mountain is standing distinct from other mountains in the dream, the above
meanings become stronger. If the mountain has pasture and stores a source of
water, and if it is used as a permanent guarding post, then it represents a pious
ruler. However, if it stores no water, and if no pasture grows therein in the
dream, it represents a tyrant and a ruler who is an atheist, for in that case, it
is dead and does not glorify God Almighty, nor can people benefit from it. In a
dream, a mountain that stands high is alive, but a crumbling mountain which
has turned into a pile of rocks is dead. If a person sees himself climbing an erect
mountain, eating from its plants and drinking from its water, and if he qualifies
to govern, it means that he will be appointed to a governing post under the
auspices of a stringent ruler, though his subjects do receive benefits from his
government. The size of benefits the governor will acquire is equal to the
quantity of food and the measure of water he drinks from it in his dream. If the
person is a merchant or a business man, a mountain in his dream represents
profits and earning a good reputation. If climbing the mountain is easy, then
there are no benefits in that climbing in the dream, for there are no benefits
without hardships. If at the end of his climbing one thanks God Almighty for
what he has reached in the dream, it means that he will become a just ruler.
If he calls to prayers on the top of a mountain or performs his prayers thereat
in the dream, it means that he will be appointed to govern. If one sees himself
descending a mountain in a dream, it means loss of rank, business losses, or
regret. If one is accompanied with his king and soldiers in a dream, it means
that he is in the company of God Almighty and that of His angels, therefore,
he shall be victorious, whereby, he can win a war, conquer an enemy, or
renounces his attachment to the world. If climbing a mountain with difficulty
means distress, then descending it in a dream means relief. If climbing means
gaining a higher station, then descending in a dream means losing rank. If one
sees himself climbing a mountain, though at a certain height he finds himself
no longer able to climb or to descend in the dream, it means that he will die
young. If one sees himself falling from a mountain in a dream, it means that he
will fall into sin. If he falls and breaks a leg in the dream, it means that he will
become despised by his superiors. A mountain on fire in a dream represents the
death of a dangerous person. Leaning against a mountain in a dream represents
friendship with someone in authority. Living in the shadow of a mountain in a
dream means earning one’s livelihood from such a person and living happily
there. Carrying a mountain in a dream means carrying the responsibility of
managing the business of a notable merchant, and such responsibilities will
bear heavy on him. If the mountain is radiant with lights, it means that one’s
responsibilities will be light too. If he sees a mountain descending from the
heavens in a dream, it represents a visit of the local governor to that locality.
If one sees the mountain rising into the skies in a dream, it means that the
governor of that town will be dismissed. Throwing stones from the top of a
mountain in a dream means insulting others. If the mountain is beautifully
dressed in the dream, it means that one will command a greater authority.
Seeing a mountain at a distance in a dream means a journey. If one sees an
earthquake hitting a mountain in a dream, it means that calamities will befall
that land or country. If an evildoer sees a mountain in his dream, it means that
he will surely suffer for his sins. Swallowing a mountain in a dream means
commanding and controlling ruthless and strong men. Climbing a mountain
until one reaches a flat surface in a dream means serving orphans, or nursing
sick people. Entering a cave inside a mountain in a dream means reaching
safety. The good or evil emanating from seeing a mountain in one’s dream
depend on its fertility or bareness. Climbing a mountain and enjoying its
vegetations and its sweet fresh waters in a dream means sheltering one’s
chastity in the company of one’s wife, or learning a knowledge or a trade that
will satisfy one’s needs. Climbing a mountain through a straight path in a dream
means facing things the way they are. If one sees mountains moving forward
with him, it means a war or a major conflict between people of knowledge.
Falling down from the top of a mountain into the middle of beasts, crows,
vultures, snakes, mammals, mire, filth, or rats and their different kinds in a
dream means abstaining from sins, or refraining from innovation if escaping
from them leads one into a mosque where he can enter to pray, or a garden where
he can rest in peace. If the mountain crumbles, and if it is transformed into ashes
or dirt in the dream, it means that whoever is meant in that dream shall lose
his devotion and waste his life. (Also see Ascending in the skies)
