Pearl necklace
(Covenant; Husband; Quran; Wisdom) A pearl necklace in a
dream represents woman’s beauty and ornaments. A pearl necklace, or a
necklace made of corals in a dream also means piety, fear of wrongdoing, or an
expression of reverence before God Almighty. All of that is subject to the value,
beauty and clarity of the necklace, or the number of gems it holds. As for a
woman, a pearl necklace in a dream represents her husband, or her young son.
If a man sees himself wearing a pearl necklace in a dream, it means that he is
a seeker of knowledge, spiritual understanding and wisdom. It could also mean
fulfilling a covenant, making a promise, or getting married. If one’s wife is
pregnant, it means that she will give birth to a son who will grow to be a wise
person, a man of knowledge, or a judge. This interpretation is possible in most
cases except if the necklace breaks in the dream. In this case, if the necklace is
broken, it means that one will break his promise, or forget his learning, become
heedless, suffer eviction, deportation, or be exiled from his home or country. If
one sees himself wearing one or even two pearl necklaces in a dream, it means
that he subscribes to God’s revelations, memorizes God’s Words, recites the holy
Quran, speaks words of wisdom, and that he is one of the carriers of the divine
trust who demonstrates trustworthiness, piety, trueness, religious commitment
and beauty of character. All depending on the beauty, radiance and clarity of
one’s necklace. If one sees himself in a dream carrying many necklaces and
decorations, and if he finds them heavy and unbearable to carry, it represents
his incompetence, or his inability to complete a job. (Also see Necklace)

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

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

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
