Coffin
(Arc) In a dream, a coffin means a great wealth. If one sees himself hiding
inside a coffin in a dream, it means fearing one’s enemy and that one is incapable
of facing him, though this element in a dream also could mean salvation or
escape from dangers that will follow. If one sees himself riding on top of a coffin
in a dream, it means that either his name is mentioned in a will, or that he will
face a dispute regarding an inheritance that will turn to his advantage. If one
is given a coffin in a dream, it means that he is given knowledge, peacefulness

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)

prison in a dream represents a grave. If one sees himself living in a grave in a
dream, it means that he will be incarcerated in a prison. Building a grave in a

funeral in his dream, it means that he will buy a house. Digging a grave in a
dream means getting married, though through tricking the woman to get her
consent. Standing over a grave in a dream means committing a sin. If one sees
himself digging a grave and upon completing his work, if he discovers that what
he has dug is standing on the surface of the earth and has no walls in the dream,
such ground represents the abode of the hereafter. If he then enters it in his
dream, it signifies that his life term in this world has come to its conclusion. If
he does not enter it in the dream, then there are no consequences to his dream.
Seeing a known grave in a dream is a proof of what is true and a sign of what
will unfailingly come. An unknown grave in a dream represents a hypocrite.

of a scholar, then it means wanting to acquire his knowledge. If it is the grave
of a rich person in the dream, then it means becoming rich or receiving an

means that such money will constitute unlawful earnings, while in the first
instance, the knowledge or wisdom one is seeking will be true, except if the
person in the grave is dead in the dream. A stone tomb or a sarcophagus in a
dream means profits, a war prisoner, a booty or exposing one’s personal secrets.
