Writer
(Author; Book; Letter; Scribe; Secretary; Starling; Write) A writer in a
dream represents a dishonest, cunning, deceitful and a fraudulent person. If a
writer sees himself unlettered in a dream, it means that he will forget his
pranks, or lose his mind, or waste his religion, or develop a weak spiritual

he suddenly becomes a writer in a dream, it means that he will develop pranks
and deceive his opponent or enemy. Discovering oneself as a writer in a dream
means that one will attend to the comfort of others rather than to his own
comfort. Consequently he will get exhausted from such exercise and find that
he gained nothing from it. If a sick person sees such a dream, it means his death.
If a worker sees that dream, then it connotes his honesty and loyalty, or it could
mean that he will be promoted, or get a raise from his employer. A writer in a
dream also represents a tailor, a farmer, or a locomotive engineer. Seeing a
scribe, or the secretary of managerial people, or someone in authority in a dream

Eve with her beautiful countenance in a dream, then she represents his mother,
for Eve is the mother of humankind. Should he then be under the pangs of
adversities, it means that he will be saved.

Eating trotters or licking up their marrow in a dream signifies swindling the

Buffalo
(Wild ox) A buffalo in a dream represents a strong, innovative and a
forbearing leader, who is courageous and well respected by his followers. If a
woman sees herself having buffalo’s horns in a dream, it means that she will
preside over a group of people or marry a man who is a leader in his community.
A buffalo in a dream also represents an intelligent but fraudulent person who
travels extensively and who is persistent in his demands. In a dream, a buffalo
also means striving, toiling and tight handedness, though others may still
benefit from him. If a buffalo is used in plowing in a dream, it connotes an insult,
or a misdeed. (Also see Caw; Counting buffaloes; Steer; Oryx; Ox)

Fox
A fox in a dream represents a lethal enemy, a perfidious person, a liar, a poet,
someone who defraud people, a schemer and a trickster. Somehow, a fox in a
dream is also interpreted generally as a fortuneteller, a dangerous state
inspector, a physician or a good business manager. Killing a fox in a dream
means taking advantage of a noble woman. A fox in a dream also means
ingratiating oneself before a noble man or a noble woman. If one sees a fox
toadying him and seeking his protection in a dream, it represents his fear of
spirits, jinns or human beings. If one sees himself battling a fox in a dream, it
means that his wife has committed adultery. Capturing a piece of fox skin or his
hair in a dream means victory and strength, or it may be interpreted as receiving
an inheritance. A fox in one’s dream also represents profits, new clothing, one’s
wife or marriage. (Also see Fur)

A jeweler’s shop in a dream means happiness, celebrations, a
wedding, ornaments, Adam’s apple, or a Quran study circle. (Also see Jeweler)
Jihad: (Inner and outer struggle) Joiningthe warriors in the battlefield in a dream
means that one is a true worshiper who attends to his regular prayers and pays
his charities and due alms. If one sees the people charging toward the battle¬
field, it means that they will receive an endowment of divine forgiveness,
victory, might and unity between the believers. To die as a martyr on God’s path
in a dream means joy, happiness and prosperity. Joining a jihad battle in the
sea in a dream means poverty, failure and walking toward destruction. Winning
a sea battle in Jihad against a tyrant in a dream means restoring one’s religious
commitment, and it could represent a protective jealousy for one’s wife, or
winning a struggle in favor of one’s parents. Victory in the battlefield during
Jihad means profits in one’s business. Returning from a holy war against an
oppressor in a dream means that one may lose his religious commitment or
disobey his parents, which is a major sin in Islam. (Also see Inner struggle)
Jinn: (Sing. Jinni) A creation from a smokeless fire. Among the Jinn, some are
believers while others are satans. This is in contrast to human beings who are
created from earth and among them some are believers and others are human
satans. Jinn in a dream represent fraud, deceit, cunning, perfidy, treachery,
theft, alcoholism, invented religious practices, travels, music, bars, tricks,
sleight of hand, illusion, sorcery and magic. If one is transformed into a Jinni
in a dream, it means that he will acquire such qualities. If one meets a Jinni who
displays truthfulness, knowledge and wisdom which is recognizable by the
person in the dream it means that he will receive good news. Seeing Jinn
standing by one’s door in a dream means losses, a vow that must be fulfilled, or
experiencing bad luck. Seeing Jinn entering one’s house and doing work there
in a dream means that thieves may enter that house and cause major losses. If
one sees himself teaching the Quran to a gathering of Jinn in a dream, it means
that he will be appointed to a leadership position. Accompanying Jinn in a
dream means familiarity with, and keeping the company of men of knowledge,
or people of inner knowledge. If one marries a female from amongst the Jinn in
a dream, it means that he will marry an insolent wife, or that he may suffer a
great calamity. If a righteous person sees himself chaining Jinn in a dream, it
means that he holds fast to his prayers, fasting, controls his carnal self and base
desires. Engaging in a battle with Jinn in a dream means that one will be safe
from their evil. To befriend a known leader from amongst the Jinn in a dream
means becoming a police officer and make it one’s profession to pursue criminals
and bandits. It also could mean that one might become a guided man of
knowledge or a teacher. Seeing Jinn gathering in a known locality in a dream
also may indicate the presence of snakes, scorpions, or what human beings may
fear in the wilderness. (Also see Dragon; Pumpkin)

Prophet
In a dream, each one of God’s prophets, upon all of them be peace and
blessings, is like a compassionate father toward his son, who is trying to save
his child from the hell of this world and the hell-fire in the hereafter. In a dream,
a prophet also represents a teacher, a tutor, a shaikh, a warning, or glad tidings.
If one sees them standing in a stately form, or if one prays behind them, or
follows them on the road, or eats something from their delicious food, or drinks
from their drink, or if one is anointed with their perfume, or learns something
from them, or acquires a particular knowledge from them in a dream, it
demonstrates his trueness, faith in God’s oneness, following His Messenger and
being faithful to his traditions. Otherwise, if one walks before them, or leads
them into a narrow lane, or stones them, or mocks them, or argues with them
in a dream, it means that he is an innovator and a heedless person. This could
also mean that he will be persecuted by his superiors, for a prophet in a dream
also represents a ruler or a king, and God’s prophets are in truth the guardians
of the souls, and they are kings in this world and in the hereafter. A prophet in
a dream also represents a religious scholar, because religious scholars are the
heirs of the prophets, upon all of them be peace. Religious scholars also know
God’s prophets better than the common people. They understand their message
and follow their traditions of glorifying God’s Oneness, devotion, piety, prayers,
charity, acting upon what they know and admonishing others to follow the path
of truth and righteousness. A prophet in a dream also represents one’s superior,
a preacher, a righteous Imam, a conscientious teacher and a caller to God
Almighty. Seeing any of God’s prophets looking gracious, stately and courtly in
a dream also represents his people’s devotion, or that a major and a positive
change will take place among his followers. If such a prophet looks spurious,
unhappy in a dream, or if he appears in a state that does not befit God’s prophets,
it means that his followers in the world have deviated from his path and created
their own religion, opposing his commands, falsifying and interpreting his
message to their own liking and abusing his admonition. If one claims to be a
prophet in a dream, it means that he will become known in his field, or if he
qualifies, he may become a ruler, a judge, a teacher or a caller to God Almighty,
commanding what is good and forbidding what is evil. Otherwise, it means that
he will be inflicted with a great calamity because of a falsehood he fosters, or
innovations he practices. If one becomes a messenger in a dream or a caller to
God Almighty, and if someone hearkens to him and accepts his message in the
dream, it means that he will rise in rank. Otherwise, it means that he will
become a broker, a liar, a defrauder, a swagger, depending on his level of
knowledge, or it could mean that he will be struck with a major calamity in his
life. Such a calamity will be of the same caliber, degree and nature that a
messenger of God Almighty may have suffered from his own people. Seeing one
of God’s prophets in a dream also means living the experience of time, space and
condition in which he saw him in the dream. Wearing the cloak of one of God’s
prophets in a dream means attaining one’s goals, or presiding over people, or
acquiring true knowledge. Consequently, one will become renowned, revered
and his opinions will be respected by most people. If one becomes a prophet in
a dream, it means that he will die as a martyr, or become poor and be gifted with
patience and endurance. He will then be granted victory, and God willing, all
his needs will be satisfied. Emulating the devotion of a prophet in a dream
means trueness in one’s faith, compliance with God’s religion, certitude and
determination. Becoming one of God’s prophets, upon all of them be peace and
blessings, in a dream means commanding good and forbidding evil, suffering
from adversities and distress equal to those endured by such a prophet, then one
will escape from destruction or humiliation by God’s leave and through His
subtle kindness. If one sees a prophet suffering from poverty and asking for help
in a dream, it means that God Almighty will satisfy all the needs of the person
seeing such a dream for the sake of the blessings reserved for that prophet. If
one kills a prophet in a dream, it means that he will betray a trust, negate a
promise, or deny a covenant. Living in the time of one of God’s prophets on earth
in a dream means honor, dignity, success, piety and wealth if one is suited for
such gifts. Otherwise, it means that Satan is deceiving him. If a prophet of God
Almighty beats a righteous and a sincere believer in a dream, it means that he
will attain peace and salvation in his life in the hereafter. If a prophet talks to
someone in a dream, it means that he will receive blessings, honor, status,
knowledge, wisdom and fame in his life. (Also see Muhammad, upon whom be
peace.)
