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,
celebrations, weddings, or anniversary meetings. If an unwed woman sees him
in her dream, it means that she will get married through a third party
involvement. The same goes for an unwed man, or it could indicate his search
for a wife. If a suitable person sees himself being a preacher in a dream, it means
that he will be appointed to manage a sensitive position of authority. If one sees
himself delivering a sermon (Kh utha) in accordance with the prescribed method
and prophetic traditions in a dream, it means that he will be helped at doing his
work. If he wears a white garment instead of a black one when delivering his
sermon in the dream, it means that he will rise in station and that his earnings
will increase. If one sees himself sitting down rather than standing up when
delivering his sermon in a dream, it means that he will preside over his
companions. If one sees himself sitting on the pulpit rather than standing up
and delivering his sermon in a dream, this maybe interpreted as afflictions and
disgrace. If an unqualified person sees himself delivering a sermon during the
pilgrimage season in a dream, in this case his dream may refer to someone in
his company who will do so, or it may mean that he will suffer from an illness
or a mishap. If he delivers a sermon and people hearken to his words in the
dream, it means that he will become a respected and obeyed guardian or leader.
If he does not finish his sermon in the dream, it means that his guardianship
will not last, or that he will resign or be fired from his job. If a woman sees herself
delivering a sermon and admonishing people in a dream, it means that she will
gain power, or marry a strong and a righteous man. If she sees herself giving
a sermon on Friday’s congregational prayers in a dream, it means that she will
be divorced, or conceive a child from adultery. (Also see Friday; Setting out)

Storyteller
In a dream, a storyteller may represent the Imam of a mosque, or the
Khatib who delivers the Friday sermon. A storyteller in a dream also may
represent one’s livelihood, or intestinal and bowel problems, or he could
represent travels. If the stories are new, then they mean disturbances in one’s
life. If they are stories of chivalry, then they represent a war. A pleasant story
one tells to a king, or to man of authority in a dream represents wealth, or great
profits which are distributed equitably. As for a merchant, hearing a pleasant
story in a dream represents easy and quick profits from his business, and for
a craftsman, it represents a sizeable contract, or an important new account.
