Slapping on the cheek
(Blow; Criticize; Smack) To lightly slap someone in a
dream means to reprimand him, or to oblige him to recognize a favor, boasting
about one’s generosity, or constantly reminding the other person of some shabby
assistance. If one playfully slaps someone lightly on his cheek in a dream, it also
means that the latter owes him something or a favor and the opposite is
interpreted accordingly. Slapping someone’s face with anger in a dream means
that the victim will triumph over the assailant. To slap someone in a dream also
means recognition of his seniority or superiority. Threatening someone in a
dream also maybe a recognition of his superiority. (Also see Digging up the past;
Slapping; Threat)

Shadow
(Under the sun, in the dark, or otherwise.) In a dream, a shadow
represents changes affecting one’s life in the world and his elevation or abasement.
A shadow in a dream also means guidance, repentance, true monotheism and
contemplating the Maker and His creation. If one moves but does not see his
shadow moving in a dream, it means abrogating the laws, discarding what is
permissible, adopting what is unlawful, death, becoming motionless, or losing
one’s senses. The same interpretation applies if one’s shadow disappears under
the sunlight, or under the moonlight, or in the night lights, or if his reflection
disappears from the water surface, or from any shiny surface. If one sees his
shadow dancing in a dream, it means falsehood, lies, stealing people’s money,
shifting one’s faith according to one’s personal interests, or that he criticize the
conduct of God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace. Dancing one’s shadow over a
carpet in a dream means invoking evil spirits, speaking their words after being
possessed by them, and it means trials, temptations and evil. (Also see Shade)

Funeral
Joining the funeral prayers in a dream means fostering brotherhood with
people on God’s path. Walking by a funeral procession in a dream is interpreted
to represents a hypocrite who destroys or kills an evil person. If one sees himself
laid in a coffin though no one carries it in a dream, it means that he will be
imprisoned. If one’s coffin is carried by a group of people, it means that he will
support and serve a man of authority, then collect a financial reward for his
support. Involuntarily following a funeral procession in a dream means serving
a non-religious person in authority. Sitting on top of a coffin in a dream means
increase in one’s wealth. If one sees himself lifted and placed in a coffin in a
dream, it means that people will appoint him to a leadership position. If one sees
a group of people performing a funeral prayers and crying over the loss of the
deceased in a dream, it means that the conclusion of his life will be commendable.
Otherwise, if they express no sorrow for his loss or cry over him, but instead
criticize him in the dream, it means that the conclusion of his life will be
contemptible. If a merchant, a governor or a leader sees himself sitting over a
coffin that is moving freely by itself in the dream, it means taking a trip by sea.
If one sees the coffin flying in a dream, it means that a great man of knowledge
will die in that town and people will not know of it, or that a known person will
die in a foreign land or on the way to or back from a pilgrimage. If a funeral
reachs the cemetery in a dream, it means that people will surly regain their
rights. If one sees a large number of coffins scattered in a specific locality in a
dream, it means that the people of that community will break into violence,
adultery and evildoing. Carrying a coffin in a dream means earning unlawful
income. If a woman sees her own funeral in a dream it means that she will get
married. If she is married, it means payment of her debts. A funeral crossing
a marketplace in a dream means liquidation of merchandise. Paying tribute to
a funeral in a dream means bidding farewell or paying respect to a travelling
friend. Paying tribute to a passing funeral procession in a dream represents
one’s concern for his own comfort. If the deceased in the coffin points at the
person seeing the dream, it means that the latter will conduct his funeral, and
he will receive a reward for his service. If he serves that funeral till the burial
and the closing of the grave in a dream, it means that he will receive double that
reward, the value of which reward is known only to God Almighty. (Also see
