then they represent the antagonistic character of a leader who deprives his

his room in a dream, it means that he will join the company of believers or
receives an award, or that he is endowed with wisdom, or should he wish for a
child, his wife will conceive one. If he is a merchant, it means that his
merchandise will arrive to its port of destination. If one sees himself riding over
a cloud in a dream, it means exaltation or marriage to a pious woman, or that
one will attend a pilgrimage should it be his wish. Otherwise, should he wish
for it, he will become renowned for his knowledge and wisdom. Should he
qualify, it means that he will lead an army, or that he will rise in rank, or that
he will be sent as an emissary of his government or as an ambassador. If people
are expecting clouds to water their farms, and should one see masses of clear
clouds carrying rains and coming in that direction in the dream, it means a
calamity. If the clouds carry poisonous rains or acid rains or polluted rains, or
if they are driven by heavy winds, or if they carry fires or dust or ashes or rocks
from a volcano, they mean that a calamity will strike that locality, or that they
will receive news about travellers the majority of whom will perish during a trip.

knowledge. If one sees himself eating clouds in his dream, it means that he will
gain lawfully earned money from such a person, or that perhaps he may gain
wisdom. If one sees himself amassing clouds in a dream, it means that he will
learn wisdom at the hand of a close associate. If one sees himself mixing with
the clouds but does not carry anything out of them in a dream, it means that he
will mix with people of knowledge and learn nothing from what they say, or
practice nothing of what they teach. If one sees himself riding over the clouds
in a dream, it means that he may become famous for his wisdom and knowledge.
If one sees his own son turned into a cloud in a dream, it means that he earns
his livelihood from teaching wisdom or religious knowledge to others. Black clouds
in a dream mean wisdom, forbearance, honesty and joy. If the black clouds also
carry a threat or cause fear in the dream, it means that one will be reprimanded
by such a wise person. If one sees himself building a house over a cloud in a
dream, it means that he lives an honest life, earns lawful money and lives his
life with wisdom and integrity. If one builds a palace over a cloud in a dream,
it means that through his wisdom, he avoids committing sins. It also means that
he prospers from such a wisdom or builds a palace in paradise with his deeds.
If one sees a cloud in his hand and rain falling from it in a dream, it denotes the
wisdom he speaks. If one turns into a rainy cloud in a dream, it means that he
lives wealthy and benefits people from his money. If one turns into a cloud that
rains gold in a dream, it means that he will learn wisdom from a great man.
Clouds in a dream also represent the people in authority who do others favors
and ask for no reward. If one hears a human sound calling him from behind a
cloud in a dream, it means that God willing he will attend a pilgrimage. ( See
Invisible caller). A black cloud in a dream also represents a just judge, while a
white cloud represents a blessed and a noble justice. Clouds in season in a dream
represent benefits, profits and prosperity. A mass of black clouds carrying no
rain in a dream mean benefits, extreme cold, sadness or sorrow. Red clouds in
a dream mean distress, adversities or a sickness. A cloud covering a town in a
dream means blessings. If the person who sees such black clouds in his dream
is intending to take a trip, it will take place, though his safety cannot be insured.
On the other hand, if he is unhappy about something, then if he sees such a
dream, it means that his sorrow will be dispelled. White clouds in a dream are
a sign of work, a job or business. Rising fog in a dream means taking a journey,
or returning from one. Red clouds in a dream means lack of work. A gloomy cloud
in a dream means stress. If one sees clouds welcoming him in a dream, it means
glad tidings. If he is an evil person, it means a calamity and a chastisement for
his sins. If one sees clouds covering the sun in a dream, it means that the ruler
of that land is ill. If one sees himself wearing a shirt of clouds in a dream, it
means blessings that God Almighty has favored him with. Clouds in a dream
also represent virtues, miracles, favors, rains, love and blessings, because they
also appear when a prophet or a saint pray for rain or to shelter a blessed person
from the heat of the sun. Clouds in a dream also mean travel by sea or air.

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

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

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

Hole
(Deception; Plot; Profits; Fall) Digging a hole, a water well, or an irrigation
and planning to water the plants with them in a dream means attending one’s
needs and serving the interests of his family. Eating from the dirt one piles from
digging in his dream represents a swagger, or someone who acquires money
through deception. Seeing oneself inside a hole in a dream also means divorce.
To see oneself outside of such a hole looking at it in a dream means having an
argument with one’s spouse that will end in reconciliation. If a sick person or
a prisoner sees himself coming out of a hole in a dream, it means that he will
become free from his trials. Falling into a hole and crying for help to no avail
in a dream means taking a short trip. A hole in a dream also represents a poor
woman who strives to cover others pitfalls, though she cannot veil her own.
Hiding inside a hole in a dream also means appeasement of one’s fears, or ending
of one’s adversities. If while hiding, one finds food, or fresh water, or a cloth to
cover himself in the dream, it means profiting from sources one does not
anticipate, or making peace with an opponent. To put a hole in one’s shoe in a
dream means facing trouble and adversities. (Also see Den; Mouse hole; Tunnel)
Holy Book: (Quran; The Last Revelation) In a dream, the Holy Book, or the Quran
represents a king or a judge who deals with Islamic jurisprudence. If a king, a
ruler, or a judge sees that the Holy Book does no longer exist, or if he sees it
burning, or if its contents are washed away in a dream, it means his death. If
one sees a ruler or a governor handwriting a copy of the Holy Book in a dream,
it means that he is a just person who uses the divine laws in making his decision.
If a judge sees himself handwritings copy of the Holy Book in a dream, it means
that he does not share his knowledge, and that he is audacious about his rank
and status. If a religious scholar or a theologian sees himself writing a copy of
Holy Book in a dream, it means that he will profit from a business deal. If one
sees a king, or a ruler swallowing the Holy Book in a dream, it means that he
may die soon. If a judge swallows the Holy Book in a dream, it means that he
accepts bribes. If a ruler sees himself erasing what is written in the Holy Book
in a dream, it means that he will be exiled. If a judge erases what is written in
the Holy Book in a dream, it also means his death. If he erases it by licking it
with his own tongue in a dream, it means that he will commit an awful sin. If
a witness erases it in a dream, it means that he will deny his own testimony.
Carrying the Holy Book, or buying a copy of the Quran in a dream means living
by its criterion. Reading from the Holy Book before God’s Prophet, upon whom
be peace, in a dream means that one will commit himself to memorizing it.
Eating the pages of the Holy Book in a dream means accepting bribes. If a
layman eats the pages of the Holy Book, or few lines from some pages in a dream,
it means that he earns his livelihood from reciting the Holy Quran or teaching
it. Eating the pages of the Holy Book in a dream also means earning one’s
livelihood from copying and selling it. Seeing the Holy Book in a dream also
mans growing in wisdom. Handwriting copies of the Holy Book in a dream
denotes one’s piety, or it could represent a religious scholar who lives by the
book, act by its commands and shares his knowledge with others. Tearing off the
pages of the Holy Book in a dream means ingratitude toward God’s revelations,
or denying God’s favors, or questioning some of them. If one does something to
the Holy Book in his dream that he would abhor to do in wakefulness, it means
that he has lost his religious devotion and faith. Carrying a copy of the Holy Book
in a dream means attaining power and acquiring knowledge. The Holy Book in
a dream also represents a husband, a wife, a son, or wealth. If a sick person sees
it in his dream, it means that he will recover from his illness. If the one who sees
it in his dream is facing an enemy, it means that he will triumph over him. If
he is a sinner, it means that he will repent of his sins and turn to his Lord, or
it could mean that he may receive an inheritance. If one sees himself following
innovations and he recognizes that in his sleep, his dream denotes a warning
from God Almighty. Seeing the Holy Book in a dream also could mean seeing
wonders, witnessing a miracle, hearing news, receiving happy news, or it could
mean longevity for one who browse through it from cover to cover in his dream.
The Holy Book in a dream also represents gardens, heavens, places of worship,
or a person one is commanded to obey, such as a ruler, or a father, a mother, one’s
teacher, or shaikh, or it could mean making a true oath, receiving glad tidings,
admonition or a warning. Seeing the Holy Book or any of the early divine
revelations in a dream means that one may preside over people. If one sees
himself carrying the Holy Book, or even any book of revelations, and if when he
opens it finds the pages blank with no writing inside it in the dream, it means
that he portrays himself to be what he is not, or that he impersonates a scholar,
or pretends to be religious. Kissing the Holy Book in a dream means revering
what it contains and adhering to what it commands. If one looks into the pages
of the Holy Book and finds its lines crooked in a dream, it means that he lives
satisfied with what he has, and fulfills his required duties accordingly. Stealing
a copy of the Holy Book and hiding it in a dream means that one cheats in
performing his own prayers, or fails to do them properly. If one sees himself
looking in the Holy Book, then writing from what he is reading on his own
garment in the dream, it means that he interprets the Quranic revelation
according to his own liking. If one sees a Holy Book sitting in his lap, then if a
chick comes and picks all the words written therein in a dream, it means that
one will beget a child who will memorize and read the Holy Quran as an
inheritance, and benefit from the piety of his father, and as a trust, a lawful
earning and a source of strength in his life. Buying a copy of the Holy Book in
dream means benefits, prosperity and becoming a renowned and a distinguished
religious scholar. If the Holy Book is snatched away from someone’s hands in
a dream, it means that he will lose his knowledge, or perhaps lose his employment.
If one sees himself spreading the pages of the Holy Book on a flat surface in a
dream, it means that he is seeking wisdom which he will get, or that he may
receive an inheritance. If one sees himself putting the Holy Book over his
shoulders in a dream, it means that he will receive an appointment, or be
entrusted with a duty to guard, or that he will memorize the Holy Quran. If one
finds himself trying to eat the pages of the Holy Book in a dream, it means that
he is a regular reader of the Quran. If one sees himself trying to eat the pages
of the holy Book but is unable to do so in a dream, it means that he tries to
memorize the Holy Quran from time to time but keeps forgetting what he
learns. (Also see Quran)

excretes in an unknown place in a dream, it means that his deeds will not be
acknowledged, nor will he receive any reward for them. Going to the bathroom
in a dream means dispelling one’s worries, paying one’s debts or paying an
unavoidable alimony for his children. Putting a shirt in the wilderness and
defecating inside it rather than in the field in a dream means committing a sin
and carrying its consequences for sometime to come. Excreting in the wilder¬
ness, then covering one’s feces with dirt in a dream means hiding money. To
defecate in a marketplace in public in a dream means incurring God’s displeasure
and the curse of His angels. Throwing feces at someone in a dream means
starting a fight or opposing him in opinion, being unjust to him, or causing him
great losses. The consequences also may backfire at the assailant. If one sees
himself standing inside the sewers and searching through the filth with a stick

or misuse of people’s money. Seeing human excrements in a dream means
abstraction of movement, stalling of businesses, or facing complex and harmful

Digging
(Excavate) Digging the earth in a dream means profits equal to the
measure of earth one piles-up if the dirt is dry. However, if the ground is wet
in the dream, it means deceiving someone else in a business venture, whereby,
he gains nothing from it but headache and exhaustion equal to the amount of
earth he piles-up. The digger’s plot also may backfire. If a sick person or if
someone in his household who is sick sees himself digging the earth in a dream,
it could mean digging a grave. If a business traveller sees himself digging the
earth, it represents his travels and the dirt he gathers represent his profits.
Digging a hole, a water well or irrigations and planing to water the plants

at it in a dream, it means an argument with her which will end in reconciliation.
If a sick person sees himself coming out of a hole in a dream, it means recovering
from illness or being set free from prison. If one sees himself digging the earth

Underground granary
(Granary; Pantry; Storrage room; Subterranean storehouse)
An underground grain storage house in a dream represents a caring mother, a
single parent or a foster mother. This interpretation comes from the example
of a fetus in his mother’s womb and its dependence on her to supply the
necessary nourishment. Once the stored food is consumed, then it is necessary
to depend on a new source. If one sees an underground granary demolished or
filled with dirt in the dream, and if his mother is sick, it means that she may
die from her illness. If one’s wife is pregnant, it means that she will soon deliver
her infant. A demolished underground granary in a dream means finding a
buyer for one’s grains, and the dirt that fills the storehouse in the dream
represents money. If the stored grain turns into dirt in a dream,
it means that market prices will come down, or it could mean the loss of one’s investment.
Seeing a granary filled with food in a dream means that one’s wife is pregnant.
If a fire consumes the stored grain in a dream, it means rising prices. If one sees
a granary filled with sugar or dates in a dream, it means that prices will stabilize
and become attainable, while the type of food stored therein will be in limited
supplies and consequently, its price will rise. If a sick person falls into an
underground granary in a dream, it means his death, or drowning in the sea,
or facing a highway robbery. As for one who is engaged in a fight, an underground
granary in his dream represents a prison or a visit to a brothel.

Excretion
(Ritual impurity) If one’s bowels discharge excess excrements in a
dream, it means hindrance of one’s travel plans. If one discharges solid feces in
a dream, it means that he does not spend his money on sickness. If it is an
abnormal discharge of liquid matters from one’s bowels in the dream, it means
that he will squander most of his money. If one uses a lavatory near a known
ablution area in the dream, it means that his spendings relate to his passion,
desires and wantonness. If the location is unknown in the dream, it means that
he unknowingly, but willingly spends his wealth in unlawful avenues, whereby
he will reap no reward or benefit from it. Discharging feces in the open and
covering it with dirt in a dream means burying money in a hole and covering it
with dirt. (Also see Impurity; Feces; Urinating)

Bathhouse
(Sauna; Steam room; Sweat room; Rest room) Washing one’s dirt with
hot water in a dream brings benefits. If one builds a bathhouse in his dream,
it means committing a sin or searching for a woman to partake in it, then
suffering its consequence. If the bathhouse is heated and the water is lukewarm
in the dream, it represents his family’s compassion toward him, trying to help
him out of his breach. If the bathhouse is cold and if its water is cold in the dream,
it means that his family has ostracized or banished him. If one witness the hot
water pipes breaking, whereby he could not control the flow of water in the
dream, it means that someone will betray him with his wife, though he will keep
trying to control the situation, but to no avail. A water leak from the boiler that
flows through the floors of the bathing quarters in a dream means incurring the
anger of one’s wife. Entering a bathhouse in a dream means suffering from a
fever. Drinking hot water directly from the boiler in a dream means sickness,
stress, depression and a scare from evil spirits. If one sees himself drinking cold
refreshing water from the regular water tab in a dream, it means comfort and
joy. Taking abath with cold water in a dream means recovering from an illness.

attendant represents the judge himself. A bathhouse in a dream also represents

their dwellers, a woman and a pimp, or a cadet posing as her husband. If one
goes to a public bath, then after completing his wash wears a white garment,
and takes a carriage back home in his dream, it means that he will shortly die
and the elements of his dream represent his washing, shrouding, coffin and
funeral. The element of a bathhouse in a dream also represent a library,
knowledge, guard’s post, house of worship, a mosque, a church, idol worship, a
prison, or a marketplace. It also represents repentance, guidance, richness,
healing, an ocean or marriage. If one sees himself taking a bath with his clothe

a good appetite, a ladle, a son, a comfortable financial standing, a hard working
man, a helper, a hard working and a patient woman, or business activities. (Also

Headgear
(Tiara; Turban) A headgear in a dream means a presidency, travels,
or marriage. If one receives a headgear, or a tiara in a dream, it means that he
may undertake a distant trip. If one wears a headgear in his dream, it means
that he may hold a seat in the government. If one is accustomed to wearing a
headgear then wearing it in a dream represents his superior, the governor, his
brother, his father, his uncle, his teacher, or a scholar, for they all have equal
right upon him. Wearing a dirty and a worn out headgear in a dream means
sorrow, difficulties and distress. If one’s headgear is stripped off his head, or if
it falls to the ground in a dream, it means the death of his superior, or any of
the abovementioned people. If a king offer someone a headgear or a tiara in a
dream, it means that he will have the power to appoint people in different
administrations. If a mishap befall one’s headgear or the turban of an Imam in
a dream, it will reflect upon his faith and the state of his congregation. Wearing
ablack turban in a dream means authority, or it could mean sitting in the judges’
bench. Wearing a headgear which is topped with a white feather in a dream
means becoming a leader. Wearing a headgear that is made from animal fur or
hide in a dream means becoming unjust and blinded to one’s own injustice, or
it could portray the wicked personality of one’s superior at work. A headgear,
a turban, or a tiara in a dream also could represent an ascetic. (Also see Overseas

Ceiling
A ceiling in a dream represents a well respected person. If it is made of
wood, then it represents a fallacious and a deceptive person. If the ceiling looks
as if it were going to cave over one’s head in a dream, it means being afraid of
someone in authority. If consequently some dirt falls over his shirt from the
ceiling in the dream, it means that he will receive money in compensation for
his pain and sufferings. If the central pillar that holds the ceiling cracks and
falls in the dream, it means the death of the man of that house. If the ceiling
collapses in the dream, it means the death of the man of that house. If one hides
under a roof in a dream, it means that he will enter his house and rob his family’s
belongings. If water is leaking from one’s ceiling in a dream, it means crying in
that house for the sake of a departed soul or crying because of a sick person in
that family. If rain dissolves the ceiling in a dream, it means loss of money and
falling-out from grace. If one sees himself standing on the ceiling of his house
and cannot come down in the dream, it means his imprisonment. In a dream,
the central beam that carries the ceiling represents a hypocrite who supports
the business of an alliance of profiteers. Should the central beam break down
and fall in the dream, it means that such a person will be removed from his office.
If the ceiling falls over someone’s head in a dream, it means that punishment
and sufferings will befall him too. If one sees the stars under the roof of his house
in a dream, it means that his ceiling may actually cave-in. (Also see Cave-in)

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)

who travels extensively transporting money between the lands, an odious, dirty
and abominable person, or an evil servant. A female beetle in a dream means
the death of a woman in childbed, or it could represent a stubborn and a
relentless woman. If one sees a beetle turning into a scorpion in a dream, it

Burial
If one sees himself being buried after his death in a dream, it means that
he will undertake a long journey during which he will be short of money. If one
sees himself being buried alive and if he recognizes the one buiying him in the
dream, it means that the latter will assault him, oppress him, imprison him or
cause him injustice. If he dies in his grave after his burial in the dream, it means
that he may die from such sufferings. Should he survive such adversities in the
dream, it means that he will escape from such fear, prison or injustice. If he sees
the other person driving him to the edge of his grave in a dream, it means that
he will lead him to his death, though his name will be praised after his death.
If the other person places him inside a coffin in a dream, it means that he will
move to a new home. If the other person fills the grave with dirt on top of him
in the dream, it means that he will be piled with money equal to the amount he
is being buried under in the dream. It is said that to be buried alive in a dream
means losing one’s spirituality or religious commitment, unless one comes out
of it alive. If one walks out of his grave covered with dirt, then shakes off the
dust in the dream, it means that his state is hopeless or that his repentance has
little chance to hold. To be buried alive in a dream means imprisonment or
despise by others, or a severe punishment which makes one’s chastisement an
exemplary lesson to others, If a gnostic or a wise man is seen buried alive inside
his own house, or if he is brought out of it alive in a dream, it means that one
will inherit him in knowledge, wisdom and status. The same interpretation is
given if one sees a prophet or a holy man walking out of his grave alive. To be
buried after death, after sunrise, at noon or at the sunset hour in a dream means
that one is being warned about doing what is good and abstaining from what is
evil. To be buried alive in a dream is wrong and means betrayal. It could also
mean marriage, prosperity or peace and tranquility after suffering and hard¬
ships. If one sees a deceased person burying him alive in a dream, it means that
one’s due debts are not payed, or that one will be imprisoned to satisfy his debts,
or that his collateral was not accepted. To bury a dead person twice means that
one is covering his faults. If one sees a deceased person burying another
deceased person in a dream, it means unity, clearing of the hearts, love and
friendship between relatives, or perhaps it could mean imprisonment, marriage,
a sickness, a trust, or guaranteeing a loan. Seeing oneself being buried after
death in a dream means that one needs to repent before death. Should he still
walk alive from his burial in the dream, it means that he may repent again. God
knows best. (Also see Cemetery; Grave)

Fountain
In a dream, a fountain placed in a suitable place or as a decorative item
in the middle of a yard or a park represents honor, dignity, dispelling worries
or adversities, hearing good news or listening to good music, squandering
money, dispersal of one’s interests, breaking a gathering, or adding and sub¬
tracting if seen near an accountant. A fountain in a dream also means avoiding
evil actions. If one is told that such a fountain is a blessed one in the dream, it
means the opposite, and should one wash himself with its water or drink from
it in a dream, it means depression and trouble. A fountain in a dream also could
represent a beautiful, rich and a noble woman. If no water is coming from the
fountainhead in the dream, then it represents a poor woman or a barren woman.
(Also see Fountainhead; Spring)
Fountainhead: A fountainhead in a dream represents blessings, grace, bounty and
attaining one’s goal. If one sees many springs gushing forth inside his own house
in a dream, and if he is not a discrete person, it represents a calamity that will
bringhim and his family to their knees with sorrow and tears. If one sees himself
taking a ritual ablution for prayers from a fountainhead in a dream, it means
that he will receive lawful money. Discovering a fountainhead in a dream means
prosperity. If the spring gushes forth inside one’s house or from the walls of one’s
house in the dream, then it means a calamity or a misfortune that will be caused
by a woman, a brother or a brother in-law. If the water flows into the street in
a dream, it means that such a calamity or adversity will leave that house and
peace will finally prevail. If the water is pure and clean in the dream, it means
depression along with a strong and a healthy body. What is disliked in such
dreams is the murky water. If one owns a stream in a dream, it represents one’s
livelihood, his shop, business, work, or one’s good deeds that remain beneficial

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
his burial in the dream, it means that he will repent for his sins before dying.
Death in a dream also signifies marriage, for a deceased person is washed and
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
enemy and should he qualify for leadership, he will attain it. To come back to
life after dying in a dream means that one will become rich and dispense with
poverty, or it could mean that he will repent for his sins. This dream also means
the safe home coming of a traveller. The death of an unknown woman in a dream
means absence of rain or dearth, and if she comes back to life in the dream, it
means rain. In general, the death of a woman in a dream means the death of a
child in wakefulness and vice-versa. If a deceased person tells someone in a
dream that he did not die, it means that he is blessed in the hereafter. Carrying
a deceased person in a dream means carrying the provisions or food supplies of
an irreligious and an ungodly person. Carrying a dead person in a different way
than one carries a deceased person to bury him in a dream means acquiring
unlawful money. Carrying a deceased person to bury him in a dream means
working for the governor.If one sees a deceased person sick in a dream, it means
that he is being questioned about forsaking his religious attendance during his
lifetime. If one sees the dwellers of the graveyards coming out of their grave to
eat people's harvest or food supplies in a dream, it means rising of food prices.
If he sees them drinking from the wells in a dream, it means that a great plague
will befall that town. If one sees a deceased person die, then if he walks in his
funeral in the dream, it means that someone among his children or in the family of that person will shortly die. If no crying or sorrow follows his death, then it
means that someone in his progeny will get married. What a deceased person
says about himself in a dream is true, for he has reached the abode of truth and
he can exercise no falsehood in that abode. If a deceased person tells something
in a dream, and if it does not take place, then it means that one is experiencing
confused dreams. If one sees a deceased person well dressed in a white or a green
garment, smiling and happy in a dream, it means that he is in that state one
witnessed in his dream. Otherwise, if one sees him disheveled, dirty, frowning
or crying in a dream, this also denotes his condition in the hereafter. If one sees
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
its course. Performing a funeral prayer for deceased people in a dream means
asking for forgiveness on their behalf or visiting their graves, or it could mean
admonishing someone with a dead heart, or it could mean bidding farewell to
traveling people or taking care of needy people. If one's wife dies and returns
back to life in a dream, it means making profits from a plantation or a farm.
Discovering a body of a deceased in a dream means finding money. Walking
behind a deceased person in a dream means following his footsteps or emulating
his trade or traditions, whether they be material or spiritual. If the Imam of the
country dies in a dream, it means destruction of that city by war. On the other
hand, if one sees a city in ruins in a dream, it means that the Imam has died.
If one sees that he is immortal in a dream, it means the nearing of his death.

features of a dead person means longevity. To suffer from death-pangs in a
dream means being unjust to oneself or to others. To sees oneself dead and naked

in a dream, it means that he will get married. If a sick person gets married in
a dream, it means that he will shortly die. If a married person dies and gets
buried in a dream, it means that he will divorce his wife or break a business
partnership or separates from his brothers, sisters and friends, or it could mean
that he may emigrate to another country. Otherwise, if he has already migrated
from his homeland, it means that he will return to it. Death in a dream has
positive connotation for someone in fear of something or a sad person or a sick
person. The death of one's brothers in a dream means the death of one's enemies,
or it could mean saving one's capital. Walking amidst dead people in a dream
means befriending some hypocrites. Walking in the company of a deceased

a commodity will become expensive. If one sees himself laying on a washing
table in a funeral home in a dream, it means that his sins will be washed away
and that his debts will be paid. If a deceased person asks someone to wash his
cloth in a dream, it means that he needs the prayers and forgiveness of the
person who saw him in his dream, or it could mean that one needs him to pay a debt he left behind or to ask people to forgive him his sins or to fulfill his will.

something he left. If he looks beautiful, happy and well dressed in the dream,
it means that such happiness will become the inheritance of his descendants.
If one sees a deceased person busy, worried and ill dressed in a dream, it means
that he is engaged in a struggle that can only subside by the will of God
Almighty. If he is sick in the dream, it means that he is answerable to God
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
deceased person sprightly, pleasant and casual in a dream, it means that one's
dream is mere hallucination, or that he is experiencing disturbed dreams, for
dead people do not joke and have their own duties to respond to. If one's deceased
father or mother come back to life in a dream, it means relief from distress and
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
guidance to an unbeliever or admonishing an innovator. This also could mean
admonishing heedless people who will repent for their sins. If one sees a
deceased person die again in a dream, it means that someone by the same name
will shortly die. If a deceased person complains about a migraine headache in
a dream, it means that he is being questioned about his religious negligence or
his injustices or his abominable attitude toward his father or mother. If the
deceased person complains about his eyes in the dream, it means that he is being

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

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

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
