important business deal. If he is a student, it means that he will not complete

husband in a dream, it means that she will flirt with him and show him

someone’s right, refute the truth, or lie about a trust he received to keep for a

tongue in a dream represents one’s life or death, because for an animal, his
tongue is like a hand through which he takes things. If a scholar’s tongue is cut
off in a dream, it means that he will lose his argument, or it could mean the death
of his assistant, student or son. Losing one’s tongue in a dream represents the
malicious joy of one’s enemy, family, or neighbors for one’s losses, or it could
mean the death of a beloved, severing a relationship, or a plant disease that will
affect one’s fruit bearing trees. Perhaps losing one’s tongue in a dream could
mean separation between husband and wife, divorce, losing one’s job, or moving
to a new town. Having two tongues in a dream also means backbiting others,
or having two faces with people, for people say that so-and so has two tongues
or two faces. If the second tongue does not impede the person from speaking in
the dream, then it denotes his truthfulness, love and affection toward others.
One’s tongue in a dream also may represent something one fears, such as the
collapsing of a roof over his head, or it could represent an enemy. It also means
isolating oneself from people of knowledge and wisdom, or it could mean
remaining mostly silent, minding one’s own business, or offering devotion and
being grateful to God Almighty for His gifts and blessings. One’s tongue in a
dream also represents a captured prisoner of war, or a snake hiding in its pit.

moderately long or well trimmed in the dream, it means earning respect, rising
in rank, prosperity, beauty and sovereignty. If only the sides of one’s beard are
long and not the middle section in the dream, it means that one will work to save
money for someone else. If one’s beard is too long and lacks proper trimming in
a dream, it means indebtedness, distress and suffering from depression. If it
becomes long to the extent of reaching the floor in the dream, it means death.
If one’s beard grows long and thick in a dream, it means longevity or increase
in one’s wealth. If it reaches his belly in the dream, it means that he does not
obey God’s commands. If it grows longer than one’s grip in the dream, it means
that one lives from the interest he earns from usury. If the hair of one’s beard
is black in the dream, it means prosperity and satisfaction in one’s life. If its color
is greenish-black in the dream, it means extended wealth, power and rulership,
unless if one is a tyrant, for the color of Pharaoh’s beard was greenish-black. If
the color of one’s beard yields to yellow in the dream, it means poverty and
illness. If its color is blondish in the dream, it means a scare. If one grabs his
own beard in the dream and if its hair falls into his hand, and if he keeps holding
to the hair, it means incurring financial losses then recovering them, unless one
discards the hair in the dream. Pulling someone’s from his beard in the dream
means inheriting him. If one sees a young boy who has not reached the age of
puberty having a beard in a dream, it means the child’s death. If the child’s beard
is just starting to grow in the dream, it means that he will grow to lead and

Death
In a dream, death signifies religious failure, corruption and rising in status
in the world. This interpretation applies if one is carried on a bier or on a litter
and his funeral is accompanied with crying and lamentation except if he is
buried in the dream. If one witnesses his own burial in the dream, then it means
that his case is hopeless and that he will be seized by the world. One's followers
or assisting entourage will be as many as those who walk in his funeral in the
dream. However, he will conquer people and ride over their shoulders. If one dies
in his dream but does not have the look of dead people and there is no crying
over his death or a funeral in the dream, it means that one of his properties will
be torn down, or that a room in his house will collapse, or that a wall will cave
in, or it could mean that a pillar will breakdown. Such a dream also may signify
weakness in one's religious standing or blindness of his heart. Despite that, he
will live a long life. If one dies in a dream and finds himself looking like a dead
person, and if his body is washed and wrapped in a shroud, it also means
weakness in his religion. All the sorrow and crying one sees in this case,
represents his rising in rank and promotion in the world. Death in a dream also
signifies travels, or it could mean poverty. One's death and burial in his dream
also means that he will die short of repentance. If one comes out of his grave after

perfumed, and a bridegroom also takes a bath and anoints himself with
perfumes on his wedding day. If one dies and is carried over people's shoulders,
though they do not bury him in the dream, it means that he will conquer his

a deceased person sick in a dream, it means that his condition is contingent upon
the satisfaction of his debts and that he is awaiting the Divine justice to take

admonishing someone with a dead heart, or it could mean bidding farewell to

Almighty for his religious negligence. If the deceased person's face looks dark
or opaque in the dream, it means that he died as an unbeliever. If one sees a

abolishing of his fears. This is particularly stronger when one's deceased mother
is seen in the dream. Resurrecting a deceased person in a dream means giving

Tooth
Teeth in a dream represent one's identity, age, clan, a boy, a girl, his
family, money, servants, domestic animals, employees, weapons, life, death,
unity, separation, trusts, or savings. In a dream, male's or female's upper teeth
represent the male members of one's family from the father's side, and the teeth
ofthe lowerjaw represent the female members of one's family from the mother's
side. The closer the teeth are to the incisor, the closer is the relative. Divided
in two sections, the upper right incisor represents the father, and the upper left
incisor represents the paternal uncle, or it could represent one's sisters, sons,
or a close friend. The upper canines represent one's cousin. or two friends who
are as close as cousins. The bicuspids represent one's uncles from the mother's
side and their children, while the molars represent the grandparents and the
grand children. The lower right incisor represents the mother, and the lower left
incisor represents one's aunt from his father's side, or they could represent two
sisters, two daughters, or two close friends who have the same compassion,
concern and love. The lower canines represent one's female cousin from either the father or the mother's side. The lower canine tooth, or the eyetooth
represents the sire of the house, or the landlord. The upper and the lower molars
also represent the furthest members of one's family, including the grandmother
and her grand daughters. If a tooth moves in its place in the dream, it means
an illness. Ifit falls, or if it is lost, then it means death of the person to whom
it is attributed, or it could possibly mean that he will be separated from him and
can no longer see him. If one saves his lost tooth and does not bury it in the
dream, it means that someone will come forth and be to him as good as that
relative. Otherwise, ifhe does bury it, then it means the death of his relative.
(2)ln a dream, the human limbs also represent the members of his family, and
whatever condition they portray in one's dream may become visible in the
members of his family. Similarly, whatever may affect one's teeth in a dream
can be interpreted as affecting such family members. If one's incisors look
beautiful and bright in the dream, they denote the power, honor and prosperity
his father or uncle will gain. If extra incisors grow in one's mouth in a dream,

Ifone finds his teeth slightly deteriorating in a dream, it means a trial, or that
his family will engage in a disgraceful act that will bring him shame. If one

the girls. On the other hand, the teeth on the right side could represent the older
generation, and the teeth on the left side could represent the younger generation.
The incisors represent the young men in the family, and the canines represent
the young girls. As to the molars, they represent elderly people. If one loses a
molar tooth in a dream, it meansthe death of an elderly person in his household.
(4lHuman teeth in a dream also represent one's business and management of his
life. In that case, the molars represent one's private life, the eyetooth represents
what is semi-public, while the front incisors represent what is openly practiced,
one's public character, words and deeds. Ifone sees his teeth broken in a dream,
it means that he pays his debts slowly. Long teeth in a dream mean enmity or
a fight between members of one's household. If one sees his teeth curved and
deteriorating, and if one decides that it is better to pull them out in a dream,

turn gold in a dream, they represent benefits for a teacher or a preacher.
