victim in the dream will attain excellence of expression and reach his goals. If

the subject of beating must be associated with the meaning of the limb affected

trip. If one receives one hundred lashes on his back in a dream, it means that

If one receives forty lashes in a dream, it means that he indulges in drinking
alcohol or uses intoxicants. If he is lashed eighty times in a dream, it means that
he slanders married women. If he is whipped by a deceased person in the dream,
it means that he is pursuing wrong ideas and should reverse his course, for a
deceased person dwells in the kingdom of truth and follows only what pleased
God Almighty. However, if one sees himself in a dream beating a deceased
person, this could be interpreted to denote the strength of his faith, certitude,
prayers and charitable nature. It also could mean benefits from a business trip
or pursuing a lost interest. Beating in a dream when it causes no pain, bleeding
or scratches means receiving a new garment, paying debts, or hearing sarcastic

or coarse sound represents sorrow and distress while any pleasant sound in a
dream represents happiness and joy. (Also see Invisible caller)
