Five times prayers
(Communication; Communion; Invocations; Prayers; arb. Salat)
To see oneself performing one’s obligatory prayers (arb. Fardh ) in a dream means
receiving a high ranking appointment, spiritual advancement, leadership,
presiding over people, delivering a message, performing a duty, paying dues,
turning over one’s trust or satisfying obligatory deeds and enjoying peace. If one
sees himself in a dream performing one of the five obligatory prayers on time,
having performed the proper ablution and correctly completed its obeisance of
the proper standing, bowing and prostrating postures, standing with reverence
and piety and facing the Ka‘aba, it means that he will perform a religious duty
or attend the annual pilgrimage in Mecca. It also means that he will extricate
himself from an unjust deed he fell into and repent, or it could mean eschewing
evil. Performing the divinely ordained prayers in dream also means loyalty to
one’s promise, employment for a person who could not find a job, or reconcili¬
ation with a long forsaken friend or relative. If one leads the prayers in his
dream, it means that he will guarantee something to someone, or it could means
that he will borrow money for a term. If one prays behind an Imam in the dream,
it means that he will become a burden to others. The midday prayers known in
Arabic as Zuhur signify a manifestation, a proclamation or exposing what is
hidden. Praying Zuhur in a dream means attaining one’s goal, satisfying every
need, obtaining everything one has asked for from earthly gains in this world,
or it could mean spiritual benefits in the hereafter and particularly if one sees
himself completing his prayers in the dream. Completing one’s prayers means
achieving one’s goal. If one is incarcerated because of a debt and sees himself
completing his Zuhur prayers in a dream, it means that someone will pay his
debt for him and gets him released from prison and he will then prosper. If one
sees himself performing his Zuhur prayers in a clear day and feels happy about
it in his dream, it means that he will engage in some work that will make him
famous and that he will enjoy the fruits of his work as much as he did in that
clear and beautiful day in his dream. If one performs his midday Zuhur prayers
in a cloudy day in a dream, it means that his work will be distressful. As for the
mid-afternoon prayers, known in Arabic as Asr, performing it in a dream means
taking a vow or making a promise. This prayer in a dream also represents one’s

that what he is asking for will materialize, though after some hardships and
adversities. If one does not complete his ‘Asr prayers in a dream, it means that
what he is asking for may not take place. If one sees himself performing the
sunset prayers, known in Arabic as Maghrib in a dream, it means that what he

which is similar to death. If one sees himself performing the daybreak prayers
before dawn in a dream, it means that the morning has come and it will be soon
before he hears either good or bad news. On another level, if one sees himself
praying the evening ‘Isha prayers in a dream, it means that he is committed to
attend to his family’s needs as commanded by God Almighty, such as providing
for their food, clothing, shelter and teachings. If one sees himself praying in the
middle of the night (arb. Witter) in a dream, it means that he does attend to his
family’s needs and perhaps they feel comfort in his presence. If one sees himself

the inevitable, such as working to provide for his family. If one sees himself
performing the midday Zuhur prayers at the time of the mid-afternoon prayers
in a dream, it means that he will repay his debts. If one’s midday Zuhur prayers
or his mid-afternoon ‘Asr prayers are interrupted in the dream, it means that
he will pay half of what he owes. If one sees himself performing the mid¬
afternoon prayers in a dream, it means that his job will shortly be completed and

a dream means finishing one’s duties and it is time for him to take a rest. The
night ‘Isha prayers in a dream means veiling things or entering the privacy of
one’s home. On a third level, the midday guhur prayers mean repentance, dis¬
missal or abrogation of laws. The midday Zuhur prayers also could mean
struggling against Satan and one’s enemies, which struggle takes place usually
at the time of one’s midday nap. The mid-afternoon ‘Asr prayers in a dream also
represents victory in one’s life, or it could mean guidance, blessings and
observing God’s laws. The sunset Maghrib prayers in a dream means losing a
parent, the passing away of one’s guardian, the death of a close friend or the
impeachment of the person the dream indicate. Seeing oneself praying the night
‘Isha prayers in a dream means preparing for a journey, or it could mean
marriage, moving from one place into another, or it could mean suffering from
cataract, weakness of one’s vision, or it could denote the vastness of what is to
come, for ‘Isha prayers are distant from the dawn Fajr prayers. Performing the
dawn Fajr prayers in a dream indicates a vow one pledges. Praying the mid¬
afternoon ‘Asr prayers in a dream means attaining ease after suffering from
hardships. Performing the sunset Maghrib prayers in a dream means having
crossed something that will come back later, and performing the night ‘Isha prayers
in a dream means deception and a tricks. If one sees himself performing the

If one discovers that he has missed the time of the prescribed prayer and could
not find a place or time to perform it in his dream, it means that he will face
difficulties finishing something or paying a debt or satisfy a worldly goal. If one
intentionally neglects to do an obligatory prayer, or if he plans to do the m la ter

judgment will be wrong or that he may follow his own mind, or it could mean
affectation, falsehood, hypocrisy, hiding the truth or unjustly confiscating

a dream, it means that his religious performance is worthless and that his
adherence is despicable. If one sees himself standing in prayers toward the
wrong direction in a dream, it means that he does the opposite of what he is
required to do, or that he acts the opposite of what God Almighty has ordained.
If one sees himself turning his back toward God’s House in a dream, it means
that he is an apostate who rejects God’s religion or that he does not care about
it. If one sees the people in the mosque facing another direction in his dream,
it means that their leader or judge will be dismissed from his office, or that he
neglects to follow the prescribed rules of his religion, or that he follows his own
mind and desire in making religious interpretations. However, performing one’s
prayers and turning with helplessness toward any direction and crying for help
in a dream means seeking God’s nearness, or asking to be accepted by other
believers for an unacceptable indulgence or a non-permissible opinion, or it
could mean travelling in the direction he faced in his dream. If one sees himself
praying eastward or westward and beyond the point of God’s House in Mecca
in a dream, it means that he is a despicable person who is full of arrogance, who
backbites and slanders others and who is daring to indulge in sin and disobedience

or it could mean receiving glad tidings and dispelling evil. Praying inside the
holy Kaaba in a dream means enjoying the guardianship and protection of
someone in authority, and safety from one’s enemy. Entering inside the holy
Kaaba in a dream means entering before a ruler. Taking something from inside

Messenger, upon whom be peace. Seeing the Kaaba inside one’s own house in
a dream means that one is still in power and living with grace. If the holy Kaaba
does not look right in one’s eyes in the dream, then it means adversities. If one
sees the holy Kaaba as his own house in a dream, the holy Kaaba then
represents the Imam of all Muslims who is the representative and vice-regent
of God’s Messenger (uwbp), and it means that one truly follows the Imam.
Praying on top of the holy Kaaba in a dream means becoming an apostate.
Entering the holy Mosque in Mecca and praying on the roof of the holy Kaaba
in a dream represents peace, tranquility, presiding over others, it also means
that one will become victorious wherever one goes, though with a questionable
conduct, he also may follow innovation and depart from the traditions and
teachings of God’s Messenger, upon whom be peace. Walkingby the holy Kaaba,
or leaving it behind in a dream means going against the traditions of God’s
Prophet, upon whom be peace, following the path of innovation, or interpreting
things according to one’s own mind and liking. If one sees angels descending
from the heavens to lift away the pillar of God’s House from Mecca and place
it in a different town in the dream, it means that people have gone astray and
the time of destruction has come. It also means that the pillar of the faith, the
righteous guide of the believers and God’s vice-regent on earth Al-Mahdi will
soon emerge to dwell in that town. If one sees the holy Kaaba burning in a
dream, it means that one has neglected or abandoned his prescribed prayers.
Any changes, decrease or increase in the shape of the holy Kaaba, moving of it
away from its place, or changing its look in a dream will reflect upon the Imam,
or the guide of all Muslims. Circumambulating the holy Kaaba or performing
any of the prescribed rites in a dream means walking the path of righteousness,
or correcting one’s religious life as much as one does in his dream. Failure to
perform some of the prescribed rites that are associated with being at the holy
Ka‘aba in a dream indicates one’s deviation from God’s path, and such innovation
is equal to changing the direction ( arb. Qiblah ) of one’s prayers. The holy Kaaba
in a dream also represents one’s prayers, for it is the focal point of all praying
Muslims. The holy Kaaba in a dream also represents God’s House, a mosque,
a community center of all Muslims, and it represents a teacher, a guide, Islam,
the holy Quran, the prophetic traditions, one’s son, a religious scholar, a shaikh,
a master, a husband, one’s mother, and the heavenly paradise. The holy Kaaba
is God’s House, and thereat people will be gathered and led into paradise. The
holy Kaaba in a dream also represents the annual pilgrimage to Mecca, the
gathering of believers, the local markets and the vicinity of the holy Mosque. If
one sees that his own house has become the Kaaba and people are seeking it
and crowds are gathering at his door in a dream, it means that he will be
endowed with wisdom, gain knowledge and act upon it, and that people will
learn at his hand and follow his example. Performing some of the required rites
at the holy Kaaba in a dream also means that one may work for someone in
authority, or serve a man of knowledge, a shaikh, a renunciate, one’s father,
one’s mother, or it could mean that one has a master who demands clarity, true
following and hard-work from his students and disciples. (Also see Circum-

by God’s leave and returned his father’s sight. Joseph’s shirt in a dream means
dispelling distress, sorrows and recovering from illness. If the shirt is spotted
withblood in the dream, then it means separation and imprisonment. Ifhis shirt
is torn from the back in the dream, it means a false accusation. If a woman sees
Joseph (uwbp) in a dream, it means that she will lose her comfort and sight. She
will also live unhappy because of her separation from her beloved, and she will
fall in love with a great man. If the woman who is actually suffering from such
adversity sees such a dream, it means that God Almighty will turn to her with
mercy and guide her to repentance. If she is unmarried, it means that she will
get married. If she is poor, it means that she will become rich, and her life in
this world as well as in the hereafter will turn to her advantage. Seeing Joseph
(uwbp) as a young boy in a dream means having little or no luck with one’s
brethren. He will be lied to, suffer from imprisonment and other trials before
he recuperates, to rise and triumph over them. They will all then become his
subject. One who sees God’s prophet Joseph (uwbp) in a dream will also be a
pious, generous, charitable, and shares his good advice with those who need it,
or ask for it. If Joseph (uwbp) talks to someone, or gives him something in a
dream, it means that one will understand dream interpretations and learn
about Chronicles, or the two biblical books of History. Seeing him (uwbp) in a
dream also means marriage to a beautiful woman who will truly love her
husband. (Also see Jacob; Sale; Introduction p.p. xvi, xvii, xuiii)

Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream also means spending a lifetime in devotion and
servitude to one’s Lord, commanding good and forbidding evil. If a ruler sees

him. Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream also means crying and lamentation, disputes
with one’s family, rising prices, relief from distress, adversities and having
recalcitrant children. Seeing him in a dream also represents a flourishing
business, farming, a ship building industry, travelling with several types of
food, or mixing different species of animals. God’s prophet Noah (uwbp) in a
dream also may represent a genealogist, a zoologist, a botanist, a phytologist,
a horticulturalist, an ecologist, or a mammalogist. Seeing God’s prophet Noah
(uwbp) in a dream also may mean regretting something, distress, penitence for
an attitude toward one’s own family, or perhaps that one’s son will stray away
from God’s path, or it could mean the death of a son because of his disobedience
to his father. If a woman sees God’s prophet Noah (uwbp), or God’s prophet Lot
(uwbp) in a dream, it means that she is disobedient to her husband, and rather
she obeys her own family and clan. On the other hand, if a woman sees Egypt’s

Preacher
(Khatib; Sermon) A preacher delivering his sermon in a dream represents
purity, submission, repentance, crying, rising in station, longevity, mixing with
a fellowship of believers, commanding what is good and forbidding what is evil,
