(Alligator; Thief) A crocodile in a dream represents a policeman. A
crocodile in the water in a dream represents a person no one can trust, whether
he is a friend or a foe. A crocodile in a dream also represents a thief or an
untruthful merchant. If one sees a crocodile pulling him into the water where
he kills him in the dream, it means that one will be caught by a policeman who
will kill him, then steal his property. If one escapes from the crocodile in the
dream, it means that he will escape from such a danger in real life. In general,
a crocodile in a dream means insolence, sins, a bandit, unlawful earnings, fear
and depression. It may also mean the end of one’s life, portrayed by his
drowning. Seeing him in water is bad while seeing him on dry land means that
he is weak and humiliated. If a crocodile pulls someone into the waters in a
dream, it means that someone in authority will force him to do something he
despises. If one sees himself eating the meat or flesh of a crocodile, or if one sees
himself dragging a crocodile out of the water in a dream, it means that he will
triumph against his enemy or opponent. (Also see Alligator; Policeman; Thief)

Thief
(Assassin; Illness; Robber) In a dream, a thief represents an illness,
deficiency in one’s character, or a physical ailment. If the thief is a black man,
it means that the illness relates to one’s black bile. If the color of his skin is red,
then it relates to one’s blood. If the color of his skin is yellow, then it relates to
his galls. If the color of his skin is white, then it relates to his chest and phlegm.
Whatever a thief takes in the dream should be interpreted in relation to the
substance of what he took. If he takes nothing from one’s house, then it denotes
a passing ailment. If one catches the thief, or holds to his shirt in the dream,
it means that he knows the cure. A thief in a dream also represents an assassin,
the angel of death, a visitor, or someone asking for marriage. If there is a sick
person in the house and a thief enters that house in a dream, it means the death
of the ailing person. If a thief comes to one’s house and takes nothing from it in
a dream, it means the recovery of sick person from his illness. A thief in a dream
also can be interpreted to represent a cunning person, a deceiver, an adulterer,
a hunter, a backbiter, someone who asks for things that do not belong to him,
a lion, a snake, a Satan, eavesdropping, or one’s mind, desire and passions. If
a scholar sees a thief in his dream, it means that he will learn wisdom from an
anecdote. A thief in a dream also represents a liar, or the humiliation inflicted
upon such a person. (Also see Crocodile; Illness; Robbery)
