Cloud of smoke
(Adversities; Fight; Pollution) In a dream, seeing a cloud of heavy
smoke over a town represents a calamity from God Almighty or a harsh
punishment of a ruler. However, if one sees smoke coming out of his house in
a dream, it means that he will be defamed, or that he will be struck by a severe
illness, an injury or a fever that will result from his work or place of business.
He will then recuperate from his illness, regain the upper hand and turn things
around. If the smoke is caused by a fire or rises to spread from under a cooking
pot in a dream, it means joy after distress and prosperity after poverty. If the
smoke has no burning odor in the dream, it means an atrocity or an ugly
experience which will be followed by exposure and defamation. If one sees

from a high fever. If one suffers from the heat of smoke in a dream, it means

its effects on everyone. If the smoke causes harm to the people and affect their
sights or limits their vision in the dream, it means injustice, depression,

Call to prayers
(Azan; Muezzin) Hearing the call to prayers in a dream denotes
the pilgrimage season or announces its holy months. It also may indicate

dream, or perhaps announcing a wife for an unmarried man, and it could mean
telling the truth. Hearing the call to prayers in a language other than the Arabic
in which it was revealed in a dream means lies and backbiting. If one sees a
woman calling to prayers, standing on the top of a minaret in a dream, it means
innovation and trials. If children give the call to prayers in a dream, it means
that people filled with ignorance will rule the land. This is particularly true
when the call is made outside the proper time. If a suitable person sees himself

govern a land which is as vast as his voice can reach in the dream. If one does
not fit the conditions of ruling, then it means that his enemies will increase in
number. If he is a merchant, it means that his business will grow. Hearing the
call to prayers in a dream also may represent invocations, supplications and
good prayers. If one sees himself calling to prayers from inside a well in a dream,

Almighty, to follow the jurisprudence He made obligatory upon humanity, and

a well is done from within a Muslim country in the dream, it means that he is
a spy or an innovator who is introducing changes to God’s laws. If one sees
himself calling to prayers from the top of the Scared House of Kaaba in a dream,
it means that he is an innovator. If he calls to prayers while laying down in his
bed in a dream, it means that his wife is backbiting and slandering the
neighbors. If he makes the call at the door of a king in a dream, it means that
he will testify to the truth in a court of justice. If one’s call is made while
travelling in a caravan or in a marketplace in a dream, it means that he will
expose a band of thieves. If he makes the call to prayers from inside a ruin in
a dream, it means that such a place will be rebuilt and people will live in it. If
one sees himself calling to prayer from inside a bathhouse or while under the
shower in a dream, it means that he will suffer from a fever. If he sees himself
calling and no one is answering his call in a dream, it means that he belongs to
the company of unjust people. If he calls with a beautiful voice and the people
hearken to his call in the dream, it means that he is seeking the approval of
people in authority. If he sees himself calling to prayer while being naked, it
represents his recklessness and contempt about his own religion. Calling to
prayer standing on a pile of trash in a dream means calling a stupid person to
make peace but to no avail. Hearing the call to prayers given inside a marketplace
means the death of one of the merchants.

Bread
(Loaf; Knowledge; Life; Longevity; Money; Mother; Nanny; Needs; Pros¬
perity; Religion; A strong person.) When bread is made from bleached flour in
a dream, it means blessed earnings and a comfortable life. When it is made with
unbleached flour in a dream, it means disturbances in one’s life. It is said that

to the financial standing of the person in the dream, or the type of work he
