Masjid
(arb. God’s House; Mosque; Place of worship) In Arabic, the word masjid
means a place of prostration, while the word Jami means a place of gathering.
A masjid or a mosque in a dream represents a scholar and its gates represent
men of knowledge and the guardians, or the attendants of God’s House. Building
a masjid in a dream means emulating the traditions of God’s Prophet, upon
whom be peace, fostering the unity of one’s family, or becoming a judge, should
one qualify for such an office. A masjid filled with people in a dream represents
a gnostic, a man of knowledge and wisdom, or a preacher who invites people
to his house, advises them, brings their hearts together, teaches them the
precepts of their religion and explains the wisdom behind the divine revelations.
Seeing a masjid being demolished in a dream means that such a gnostic, or
religious scholar and devout believer will die in that locality. In a dream, if the
roof of a masjid caves in, it means that one will indulge in an abominable action.
If one sees a stranger performing his prayers in a masjid in a dream, it means
that the Imam of that masjid will dies from a terminal illness. If one enters a
masjid in the company of a group of people, and if they dig a small hole for him
inside the masjid in the dream, it means that he will get married. If one’s house
becomes a masjid in a dream, it means that he will attain piety, purity of heart,
escetic detachment and an honor he will receive from his brethren. He will also
call upon them to follow what is true and to abstain from what is false. If a masjid
is transformed into a bathhouse in a dream, it means that a chaste person will
turn corrupt or become heedless. A masjid in a dream also represents a
marketplace or a business. If one has to climb up a staircase to reach the masjid
in a dream, then the masjid represents a thrifty person who does not like to
share what he has. If one has to climb down a staircase to reach the masjid in
a dream, it means that his needs will be satisfied. If a masjid in the city is moved
to a remote village in a dream, it means stagnation of one’s business, being
ostracized from one’s community, or it could mean legal complications related
to one’s inheritance. If a ruler builds a house for God Almighty or a masjid in
a dream, it means that he will be a just ruler and he will govern his subject by
the divine laws. If a religious scholar builds a masjid in a dream, it means that
he will author a book that will benefit others, or delivers a commentary on a
complex religious issue, or if he is wealthy, it means that he will pay the alms
tax due on his assets. Building a masjid in a dream also means getting married,
or conceiving a child who will grow to become a righteous and a knowledgeable
scholar, or if one is poor, it means that he will become rich. Otherwise, it means
that one will serve God’s House and fill it with invocations, supplications,
serving the interest of the community, leading the people to unity and love, and
teaching them to value obedience to God’s commands. Building a masjid in a
dream also could mean becoming a real estate agent, or repenting from one’s
sins, or receiving guidance on God’s path, or to die as a martyr, hence, what one
builds for God Almighty in a dream, represents his house in paradise. Such
interpretation applies if one builds a masjid following the proper procedures
and with lawfully earned money, and using proper materials. Otherwise,
building it with what is unlawful of money or materials in the dream, or
changing the direction of the prayer niche, etcetera, then one’s dream will carry
the opposite meaning. If one builds a masjid or a fellowship house in a dream,
it means that he will seek the path of knowledge and wisdom, or that he will
attend a pilgrimage during that same year, or establish a permanent business,
such as a hotel, a bathhouse or a shop, etcetera. Building the roof of a masjid
in a dream means taking care of orphans, or sponsoring homeless children.
Expanding a masjid in a dream means increase in one’s good deeds, repentance
from a sin, adopting good conduct, or being just. Seeing oneself inside a new
masjid one does not recognize in a dream means attending the pilgrimage to
God’s House in Mecca during that same year, or joining religious circles to learn
about one’s religion. If one’s shop becomes a masjid, or if the masjid becomes a
shop in the dream, it denotes lawful earnings, or it could mean mixing lawful
and unlawful earnings. A forsaken masjid or mosque in a dream means
intentionally ignoring the value of gnostics and religious scholars, or denying
the necessity to command what is good and to eschew what is evil. A forsaken
masjid in a dream also denotes the presence of ascetics who have renounced the
world and its people and care less about their material possessions. A known
mosque in a dream represents the city where it is erected. For instance, the Aqsa
mosque in a dream represents Jerusalem, the Sacred mosque represents Mecca,
the Prophet’s Mosque (uwbp) represents Medina, the Omayyad mosque represents
Damascus, Al-Azhar mosque represents Cairo and the Blue mosque represents
Istanbul, etcetera. A known mosque in a dream also could represent the
renowned scholars who live in that place, or the ruler of that country, or any
of his ministers. If one enters a mosque and immediately after crossing the
entrance gate, he prostrates himself to God Almighty in the dream, it means
that he will be given the opportunity to repent for his sins. If one comes to a
masjid and finds its doors locked, then if someone opens the door to him in a
dream, it means that he will help someone in paying his debt, then extol his good
virtues in public. If one enters a mosque riding on an animal in a dream, it means
that he will cut off his connection with his relatives, leave them behind and
forbid them to follow him. If one dies in a masjid in a dream, it means that he
will die as a true penitent. If the carpet or the straw mat of a mosque becomes
a shredded rag in the dream, it means that the community of that masjid is
divided and corrupt. Building a masjid in a dream also means overcoming one’s
enemy. Entering the Sacred Mosque in Mecca in a dream means arriving with
one’s bride to their new home and it could mean fulfillment of a promise, being
truthful, dispelling one’s fear and reaching the shore of safety. (Also see Minaret;
Minbar; Mosque)

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
backbiting, a theft, announcing a major move or blowing the trumpets of war,
or it could denote rank and honor or obeyed commands of the one seeing the
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
adequately calling to prayers in a dream, it means that he will be appointed to
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,
it means that he will call people from another land to walk the path of God
Almighty, to follow the jurisprudence He made obligatory upon humanity, and
to adopt the divine laws as their way of life and religion. If calling from inside
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.

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
liability. If one sees himself performing the ‘Asr prayers in a dream, it means
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

dream, it means that he will get what his heart desires. As for the night prayer,

dream, it means that he will complete his work and get what he wants, or it could
mean the end of his life, following which, one u su ally attends to his resting time,
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
performing the dawn Fajr prayers in a dream, it means that he will start with
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
only little work is left for him to finish. Praying the sunset Maghrib prayers in
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

eating honey in a dream, it means that he may engage in sexual intercourse with
his wife during the fasting hours. If a woman sees herself performing the
obligatory (arb. Fardh) prayers shortened to two grouping of prostrations in a
dream, it means that she will have her monthly menstrual period on that day.
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
(arb. Qada’) in the dream, it means that he takes his religious commitment
lightly and hopes to correct his attitude at a later time. Performing the Friday

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

Supplication
(Imploring; Invocations) In a dream, supplications represent worship,
a special prayer, or asking for a specific need. Invocations in a dream mean that
one’s needs are satisfied. If one’s supplications are done under dire need, or if
they involve strong emotions, sobbing or grief in the dream, then they represent
trying moments in one’s life, or they could mean temptations. Loud or solemn
supplications in a dream may indicate a special prayer for rain. If the suppli¬
cations do not call for God’s favors, or if they are not directed toward Him in the
dream, then they represent falsehood. If the supplications are silent in the
dream, they could mean that one will beget a blessed son. If one sees a group
of people gathering in a circle of prayers, or doing Zikr and invoking the divine
attributes in a dream, then they represent a gathering of children, growth,
blessings, or waiving away sufferings. If one sees himself praying to God
Almighty, or that prayers are invoked on his behalf in a dream, it means
happiness and money. Supplications in God’s house or in a mosque in a dream
are more beneficial than prayers which are offered anywhere else. If one prays
in the dark in a dream, it means that he will be saved from trials. If one sees
himself imploring another person in a dream, it means that he fears him. (Also
see Prayers; Zikr)

Glorifying
Glorifying God’s sovereignty in a dream is a confirmation of one’s true
faith. If in real life the person is ill, imprisoned or in fear, glorifying God
Almighty in a dream means his cure, freedom and peace. If one sees himself
performing his prescribed prayers, then following that with invocations of God’s
glory in a dream, it means that one will receive a verdict of innocence, fulfil a
vow, comply with the divine command, or that God Almighty will provide him
with resources to pay his debts from sources he does not anticipate.
