public knowledge, fame, presidency, laurel of victory, a man of knowledge, an
Imam, or an ascetic who is vigilant and courageous, or a rich and a generous
man, or a strong and a victorious hero whose example is loved and followed. If
the banner is red, then one will reap happiness from the person it represents,
or he may engage in a war against him. As for a woman, a banner in a dream
represents her husband. If one sees banners flying during a parade, they mean
rain. If the banners are black in the dream, they mean that one will meet a man
of knowledge. If the banners are white, then they represent ajealous person who
will never be married. If they are yellow, they represent an epidemic disease.
If they are green, they mean a journey by land. A banner or a flag in a dream
also means that one will be wrapped in ambiguity in relation to a particular
matter and he will not find a way out. If one sees a flag and a brigade in a dream,

overcome his sadness and adversities. His heart will have peace and his path
will open before him. If the flag represents a country in the dream, it means that
one may visit such a country. If a woman sees herself burying three banners in
a dream, it means that she will marry three men who belong to the noble class
of the society. Such three people will die one after the other. As for a pregnant
woman, a flag in a dream means a son and for an unwed woman, it means a
husband. A large banner in a dream means rain and winds. The carrier of the

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

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)

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

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 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

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)

him in a dream, it means that he will face tribulations and punishments in his
life. If he considers the archangel Gabriel and the archangel Michael as equals
in a dream, it means that he agrees with the people of Jewish faith. To his own
detriment, such a person might steer into an activity that is opposite to God’s
instructions and consequently earns himself God’s wrath. If the archangel
Gabriel (uwbp) greets someone in his dream, it means that such a person will
become a great man of knowledge and he will be recognized and distinguished
in his own field. The archangel Gabriel in a dream also represents the messenger
of the king, the confidant, the carrier of glad tidings or the person who
announces the birth of a son. Seeing him in a dream also indicates increase in
one’s devotion, learning and acquiring in-depth knowledge of mystical realities.
Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream also signifies the smooth rising of the soul after
death for someone who is dying. The archangel Gabriel in a dream also

religious knowledge or learning the secrets of astrology. If one sees the arch¬
angel Gabriel distressed in a dream, it means that a calamity will befall the
person seeing the dream. If one becomes Gabriel in a dream, it means that he
will become generous, magnanimous and blessed in his actions and performances.
