beautiful son, a treasure, an agreement, a consent, deputyship, devotion,
straight path, swearing in, testimony or wisdom. Losing a banknote in a dream
means losing one’s son or missing one’s prayers. If one sees himself moving piles
of banknotes to his house in a dream, it means that money will be delivered to
his hand. Though banknotes are blessings and they are what people need,
nevertheless, they are also Satan’s arrows. If one sees himself handling a large
quantity of banknotes in a dream, they mean trusts he receives for saving or as
a business. If one sees himself holding a banknote in his hand in a dream, it

him on demand. A counterfeit banknote means illegal money or income from
unknown source. A banknote carrying the denomination five, represents the
five time daily prayers in Islam. If one loses one in the dream, it means that he
neglects his required prayers. In some interpretations, banknotes represent a
book. They also represent benefits to a poor person. Perhaps banknotes in a
dream could represent the punishment of a hypocrite, or a person who respects
no commitment toward his friends, or perhaps they could represent a beloved,
mutual support, helping others, or good news. Common denominations such as
one hundred represent working for the government. If one sees himself receiving
a coin of money, or a banknote (e.g. One dollar), it means that he is suffering from
oppression. If one sees himself giving someone a banknote of the denomination
one, then if he finds it shred’ded into pieces in the dream, it represents a severe
enmity, a grievance, or a fight. If he finds it thrown to the floor in the dream,
it signifies heavy fighting between two people. (Also see Money)
