Governors
If one sees them in a good state in a dream, it means that he will attain
his goals, be it profits, knowledge, guidance or uprightness. A governor in a
dream also represents an orthopedist, an engineer, gentleness or conformity. If
a governor sees himself hearing a petition from a deranged person, a stupid
person, a street sweeper, a baker, a trash collector, a servant, a dancer or a
musician in a dream, it means that the governor will consent to the opinions or
advice of others in his ruling, or perhaps he will lean toward the interests of some
opportunists. A governor in a dream also represents a father or a mother who
teach their children justice and righteousness and in turn, the child will benefit
from them and particularly if he follows their advice. ( Also see Earth)

Spiritual gathering
(Admonition; Fellowship; Gathering; Meeting; Religious
meeting) If one who does not qualify to be a spiritual leader or a scholar sees
himself holding a religious gathering and admonishing people to do good and to
forbid evil in a dream, it means distress and an illness which he is praying hard
for it to be lifted by God’s leave. However, if he does speak wisdom during such
a spiritual gathering in his dream, it means praying hard to have one’s distress
and illness lifted by God’s leave. Consequently, and God willing, he will recover
from his illness and be able to dispel his adversities. His condition will change
from tightness to abundance. He will repay his debts and overcome his oppressors.
If one sees a spiritual gathering where God’s Name is glorified, the holy Quran
is read and wisdom is spoken in his dream, it means that such a place will be
established as a spiritual center or as a mosque. Such a place will also become
a center where spiritual leaders and governors will gather and speak. If love
songs of light nature are played during such a gathering in a dream, it means
that falsehood will overtake such a place. If one sees himself sitting in the center
stage, in the middle of learned people and religious scholars in a dream, it means
that he will receive a greater knowledge and honor in his life. A gathering that
involves a court case, or a marriage in a dream represents an unknown adversity
that will safely pass. Admonishing people in a public gathering in a dream
means that one’s command will be obeyed. Sitting in the center stage in a
spiritual gathering in a dream represents one’s station or rank, or it could
represent one’s wife, child, property, or personal secretary. Anything that
happens to such a gathering in the dream may reflect on any of them. (Also see
Fellowship; Gathering; Mosque)

Ishaq
(Also known as John in Western traditions. God’s prophet Ishaq, son of the
prophet Jacob, upon both of them be peace.) In a dream, seeing him indicates
adversities and hardships. If one has a son who ran away in disobedience to his
father, and if he sees God’s prophet Ishaq in a dream, it means that he will
return to his home and be obedient again. This dream also indicates a surge of
glad tidings, peace and tranquility. Seeing Ishaq (uwbp) in a dream also means
suffering from persecution by the senators of one’s town, or from some of his
relatives, and finally God Almighty will come to his help, and grant him back
his integrity and honor. If one sees him in his best form and radiant beauty, it
becomes a sign of glad tidings, whereby one’s progeny will engender leaders,
governors and righteous people. Seeing him in a dream also may mean coming
out of tight circumstances into a more relaxed ones, changing from heedlessness
into guidance, poverty into richness, and from disobedience to one’s parents to
obeying them again. If one sees himself transformed into Isliaq (uwbp) or to wear
his robe in a dream means that he may near his death then be saved from it.
Islam: (Religion of Islam; Surrender to God’s will; Submission) To see oneself as
a Muslim, praising God Almighty, thanking Him, facing the Ka‘aba in one’s
prayers, or to see oneself embracing Islam in a dream means straightening one’s
life, or repentance from one’s sins. If one sees himself renewing his Islam in a
dream, it means safety from plagues, sickness, or adversities. To proclaim the
two testimonies: ‘There is no god other than Allah, Muhammad is the Messenger
of Allah,” in one’s dream means relief from distress, or guidance after heedlessness.
Saying these testimonies in a dream also may mean returning to one’s parents
after having abandoned them. It also means returning to a place one has earlier
deserted, or to using earlier criterions in one’s life. If a Muslim recites these
proclamations in a dream, it means that he will testify to the truth in a court
of justice, or become known for his truthfulness. (Also see Exalting God’s one¬
ness; Exclamation of God’s sovereignty; Imam; Meadow; mosque; Quran; Pil¬
grimage)

Flag
(Banner; Woman) In general, flags in a dream represent leaders, governors,
judges and scholars. Carrying a flag in a dream means signing a marriage
contract. A flag in a dream also means avoiding a dispute. Carrying a flag and
a spear in a dream represents one’s death or the sudden death of his son. A
hoisted banner inside one’s house in a dream means a funeral. Carrying a flag
in a dream also connotes a woman. Carrying a red flag in a dream also could
represent an evil woman. If it is a white flag, then it represents a pious and a
chaste woman. Carrying a flag of many colors in a dream represents a corrupt
woman. If one is given a flag to carry, and if he leads a parade of colorful flags
in his dream, it means that he will rise in station and receive honor. To take
a flag away from someone in a dream means removing him from office. If one
sees a black flag in a dream, it could represent an ominous woman. A black flag
in a dream also represents a man of knowledge. A white flag in a dream
represents jealousy. A yellow flag represents an epidemic disease and a green
flag means a journey by land. (Also see Banner; Colors; Honor; Laurel)

Cemetery
(Burial ground; Grave; Graveyard) Seeing a cemetery or a graveyard
in a dream means appeasement and comfort for a terrified person, and dismay
to a comfortable and a relaxed person. A graveyard represents the elements of
fear, hope and return to guidance after heedlessness. A cemetery represents the
hereafter, because it is its vehicle. A cemetery in a dream also represents the
prison of the body, but in a dream, it also means seclusion, devotion, abstinence,
asceticism or admonition. A cemetery also can be interpreted as the dead looking
drunkard in a bar, a man laying flat in a prostitution house, the home of a
heedless person who often sleeps rather than pray or a hypocrite whose deeds
are not subject to receiving a heavenly reward, etcetera. If a sick person walks
into a funeral procession in a dream, it means that his illness will culminate in
his death. If he is not sick and then during that procession he weeps or prays
for the deceased person in the dream, it means that he will repent of his sins,
join spiritual study circles and serves the people of knowledge. Such a person
also may attain a blessed spiritual station and benefit from what he hears and
sees. If one sees himself walking in a funeral procession and neglecting respect
and contemplation, and instead laughs and jokes, it means that he will befriend
evildoers and accept their evil conduct as a standard norm of behavior. If one
sees himself visiting a graveyard for seclusion, self-awakening and self-re¬
straint, then if he reflects about words of truth, wisdom and repentance in his
dream, it means that he will be asked to judge between two people, and that he
will rule with justice. If one does not contemplate thus in the dream, it means
that he will forget about something important or dear to his heart. If one enters
the graveyard calling to prayers in a dream, it means that he will admonish
people, commands what is good and forbids what is evil. If one sees himself
entering a graveyard and walking over the scattered bones of the dead people
in a dream, it means that he will die and be buried there. A cemetery in a dream
also represents admonition, reading the Quran, crying, reminiscence, piety,
surrender to one’s destiny and discarding worldly gains. A cemetery in a dream
also may represent the scholars, ascetics, governors, leaders, camps or a brothel.
The graves of saints or shrines in a dream signify innovation, heedlessness,
intoxication, adultery, corruption and fear. A stone tomb or a sarcophagus in a
dream signifies profits, war prisoners, a booty or exposing one’s personal
secrets. (Also see Burial; Grave; Shrine)

Seer
(Dream interpreter) If a seer who predicts events or a dream interpreter sees
himself falling into a deep well in a dream, it means that he will be involved with
the life of governors, or high society who will seek his council to interpret their
dreams. (Also see Dream interpreter)

Arabic months
(Lunar months: 1- Muharram; 2- 3- Rabi-'uIAwal; 4- Rabi'u
Thani'; 5-Jamadul Awwal; 6- Jamadu Thani'; 7- Rajab; 8- Sha'ban; 9- Ramadan;
10- Shawwal; 11- Zul-Qi'dah; 12- Zul-Hiliah) Seeing a dream during the month of Muharram means that the dream is most true as it is seen. Thus, having a
dream during the month of Muharram could be even called a vision and it never
fails. Such a dream means success, relief from difficulties, release from a prison,
or recovering from an illness. If the person had retreated from his town, he will
return to it. This interpretation is based on the story of God's prophet Jonah,
upon whom be peace, after he emerged from the belly of the whale. Perhaps the
person in the dream may face a great spiritual challenge in his life, or it could
mean the death of a great man of knowledge or the emergence of such a gnostic
or wise man in that city. If the person seeing the dream is a sinner, it means that
he will repent of his sins, for God Almighty has accepted the repentance ofAdam,
upon whom be peace, during that month. If the person in the dream is one who
hopes for a station of honor, he will attain it, because God Almighty has raised
the prophet Enoch (Idrls) upon whom be peace, to a high station during that
month. If a traveller sees a dream during that month, it means that he will safely
return home from a long journey, because it is the month in which the prophet
Noah upon whom be peace, was saved with his people, and it is the month in
which the arc settle on top of Mount Judiyyi. If the seer desires a son, then he
will beget a righteous son, because it is the month in which God's prophets
Abraham and Jesus, upon both of them be peace, were born. If the person seeing
the dream is suffering from tight financial circumstances and if he desired a way
out, it means that he will see the light or escape from the danger of his enemy,
because this is the month in which God's prophet Abraham was saved from the
fire ofNimrod, or perhaps, ifhe had followed a path of innovation and falsehood,
he will turn back to God Almighty and repent of his sin, because it is also the
month in which God Almighty forgave the prophet David, upon whom be peace.
If the person in the dream is impeached from his leadership position or stripped
from his status, he will return to his office and regain honor, because it is also
the month in which God Almighty returned the prophet Solomon to his kingdom.
If one is bedridden, it means that he will recover from his illness, because it is
the month in which the prophet Job (uwbp) recovered from his illness, or
perhaps it could mean that one will be sent as an emissary with a mission, or
as an ambassador, because it is during this month that God Almighty spoke to
His prophet Moses upon whom be peace. As for the second lunar month, known
in Arabic as Safar, having a dream during it could be interpreted as follows: If
one is pessimistic about what he saw, then it could mean the opposite. If he is
sick, it means recovering from his illness. If one is needy, it means that his needs
will be satisfied. If one is suffering from stress and worries, it means that they
can cause him no harm. If one sees his dream during the third lunar month,
known in Arabic as Rabt-rul Awwal, and if he is a merchant, it means that his
business will grow, prosper and that his money will be blessed or perhaps he may
conceive a child during that month. If he is under stress and worries, they will
be dispelled. Ifhe is persecuted or treated unjustly, he will end in a triumph,
or it could mean that he will hear good news, or he may be appointed as a
governor, or he may admonish people to do good and discard evil, for it is the
month in which God's Prophet Muhammad, upon whom be peace, was born to
this world. If one's dream takes place during the fourth lunar month, known in
Arabic as Rabi'u Thiini, and if it suggests glad tidings, then one may have to
wait and exercise patience, but ifit suggests evil, then such happening will come
fast. During this month, seeing a dream also means victory over one's enemy,
or it could mean conceiving a blessed son who will grow to become a gnostic, or
a hero, for it is during this month that the Imam 'Ali, may God bless his
countenance and be forever pleased with him was born. As for the fifth lunar
month, known in Arabic as Jamiidul Awwal, seeing a dream during this month
means that one should slow down or scrutinize his buying and selling, or it could
mean that he may lose his daughter or wife, for it is in this month that the daughter of God's Messenger, upon whom be peace, Fatima died. May God. be
forever pleased with her. If the dream happens during the sixth lunar month,
known in Arabic as Jamadu Thaw, and if the dream carries a good meaning,
it will come, but slow and one should not contradict it. If one sees this dream
during the seventh lunar month, known in Arabic as Rajab, it means that he
will gain honor and status, for it is the month of the prophet's Ascension (Mi'raj)
and his night journey to the seventh heaven. A dream during the eighth lunar
month, known in Arabic as Sha'ban, represents honor and ranks, for during
this month, every good deed will be honored. As for the ninth lunar month,
known in Arabic as Ramadan, in it, all difficulties will be suspended, evil will
be shun and stinginess will be dispelled. During this month all what is good will
manifest and bad dream will dissipate to become null and void. During this
month, the dreams of a believer may be differently interpreted than the dream
of a disbeliever. If one sees the month of Ramadan in his dream, his dream
means blessings, profits, commanding good and forbidding evil. If the person is
seeking knowledge, then knowledge will be given to him, for it is during this
great month that the Holy Qur'an was revealed. If the person is inflicted with
epilepsy, he will recover from it, for the devils and all evil spirits are shackled
and are rendered powerless during this month. As for the tenth lunar month,
known in Arabic as Shawwal, if one's dream suggests a war or a conflict, it
means that he will come first in it, and that he will triumph. If one sees the
month of Shawwal in his dream, it means that he will come out of difficulties
and finds happiness and devotion, for it is the month during which that God's
House, known as the Ka'aba was built. As for the eleventh lunar month, known
in Arabic as Zul-Qi'dah, if one's dream suggests a trip, then the person should
refrain from taking that trip or perhaps he should delay it for the better. He also
should guard himself where he lives. If the dream denote stress or worries, then
he should avoid whatever may cause them. However, if one's dream takes place
during the twelfth lunar month, known inArabic as Zul-Hijjah indicates a journey
then one may take it, or if it denotes a good business, one should seek it, for it
is a most blessed month and it is the month of festivities and sacrifices. If one
sees this month in his dream or sees himself offering sacrifices in it, or if he sees
himself praying the festival of Sacrifice prayers in it, his dream means paying
one's debts or fulfilling one's vows, repentance from sin, guidance or perhaps his
dream may indicate the death of great people of knowledge, the impeachment
of governors, the changing of governments, or it could mean a sudden war.

Well
In a dream, a well inside one’s house means prosperity, riches, a wife,
business, a teacher, poverty, deception, fulfillment of one’s needs, travels, goals,
stinginess, generosity, or it could mean a servant. The structural condition of
each well in a dream has its own interpretation. A well in a dream also represent
a woman who has a loud laughter, or it could represent a pleasant and an in¬
spiring woman. If a woman sees a well in a dream, it means meeting a man of
good character. If one sees himself looking into a well in a dream, it means that
he is thinking about a particular woman for marriage. A well in a dream is also
interpreted to represent knowledge, marriage, a big man, prison, ties, or
deception. If one digs a well and finds water in it in his dream, it means that
he will marry a wealthy woman whom he will deceive. If the water gushes forth,
rises and runs outside of an old well in the dream, it represents crying and grief
in that place. Digging a well and finding water to channel for one’s garden in
a dream means taking an herbal remedy to cure one’s impotence, or to save his
marriage. Falling into a well of muddy waters in a dream means that one may
become subject to the tyranny of an unjust ruler. If the water he falls into is clear
in the dream, it means that he will willingly work to serve a righteous man and
for a nominal wage. Falling into a well in a dream also means demotion, or it
could mean travels. Sitting at the edge of a well in a dream means dealing with
a deceiving person. A collapsed well in a dream represents a dying woman.
Reaching a well which is dug for the general public to draw from its water means
getting relief after suffering from difficulties. Finding a well adjacent to a
barmaid in a dream means finding a spiritual teacher, or joining a fellowship
and a school for the seekers. If one sees the well of Zamzam quenching the thirst
of people in a particular neighborhood other than Mecca in a dream, it means
that a gnostic will come to that town, and whose knowledge and wisdom will
greatly benefit its people. It also may denote the bounty and blessings which are
imparted to that town, or it could denote the victory of its people over their real
enemy. Drinking from such a well in a dream means fulfillment of one’s
intentions and satisfaction of his needs. In a dream, a well also means a prison
or depression. If one is in such a state, it means that his adversities will
dissipate, and that he will reestablish himself in the circles of people in
authority. If the person in the dream is a seer who predicts events, then he may
be involved in the circles of governors, particularly to interpret their dreams.
It is possible that he also might receive emissaries of notable people who will
bring him what pleases him. It also could mean a fight in one’s family involving
jealousy, envy, betrayal, though at the end one will triumph over them. Falling
into a well in a dream also means being indicted in an alleged crime from which
one is clearly innocent. A well in a dream is also interpreted as levying taxes,
or it could mean circumcision. Digging a well in a dream also represents a crafty
and an artful deceiver.
