In a dream, it means sorrow, or earnestly seeking knowledge,
desiring to become wealthy, preparing to perform a pilgrimage, or celebrating
a religious festival. If one sees himself marching alone in a campaign in a dream,
it means that he might endanger his own life, lose his wealth, or that he may
face an awesome trial that will bear heavily on him.

Thunder
(Curse; Omen; Policeman; Warning sign) In a dream, thunder without
rain means a scare, a warning or an ultimatum. It also represents good
promises, gracious orders, or the sound of drums. Seeing thunder in a dream
means repayment of one’s debts, and for a sick person, it means recovering from
his illness. Thunder, lightening and rain in a dream represent fear for a
traveller, or the greed of a merchant. Hearing about an awesome blast in a
distant land in a dream means that the dwellers of that place will be struck with
a major calamity or sudden mass casualties. The sound of thunder in a dream
represents a murder, a fight, a dispute, an argument, lack of religious atten¬
dance, loss of money, or the release of a prisoner. A thunderstorm with rain when
needed in a dream represents a good harvest for that year. Hearing a thunderous
sky without seeing the lightening in a dream means an assassination, deception,
falsehood or slander. Hearing the sound of thunder in a dream also means being
reprimanded by a higher authority. There are no benefits in hearing the sound
of thunder in the darkness without seeing lightening in the dream, this would
be interpreted as apostasy or disloyalty. This can be particularly true when it
is accompanied with an earthquake. If one hears thunder in its season in a
dream, it means good news and blessings. Otherwise, out of its usual season,
thunder in a dream represents an army on the move, or a foreign occupation of
a country. Hearing the sound of thunder in a dream also represents hymns,
praising God Almighty, glorifying Him, or it could mean a sickness, fear,
deafness, or the sound of drums in a wedding. If the one seeing the dream is an
atheist, it means that he will be guided and have faith in God Almighty. If he
is a sinner, it means that he will repent for his sins. Hearing the roaring of
thunder in a dream on the first day of October means death. If it is heard during
the first six days of that month, it means benefits, or lower prices, but if it is
heard near the end of the month, then it means a plague or a disaster. Hearing
the sound of thunder at any other time during the month of October in a dream
means evil. If it is heard during the month of November in a dream, it means
blessings for the land, prosperity, the spreading of God’s words in a new land,
the falling of a comet in a populated area, the death of a leader, a pollution that
will devastate bird life, or a heavy rainstorm with limited damages. If the sound
of thunder is heard during the first ten days of December in a dream, it means
the death of famous people within the Western hemisphere, inflation, rising
prices, degradation of social behavior, decrease in harvest, inflation, or playing
dirty politics. Hearing the sound of thunder during the last seven days of
December in a dream means that the winter will be cold and dry, though the
forthcoming spring will be cool and wet. Hearing the sound of thunder in the first
six days of the month of January in a dream means that a major event will take
place, such as an earthquake, death, destruction, or a war in Iraq. If this dream
is witnessed during the last week of the month of January, then it represents
a solar eclipse, or the death of a Western leader, a plague, or the birth of a planet
that signifies the destruction of a great city on earth. Hearing the sound of
thunder on the first day of February in a dream means a good harvest, lowering
or stabilization of prices, discovering a new disease in the East, death in the
seas, heavy rains in Mecca, fear, devastation and famines in Ethiopia, or that
a Western leader will move his armies to the East and control the land for a short
period of time. Hearing the sound of thunder during the first six days of March
in a dream means good harvest, lowering of prices, stabilization of the market
and prosperity. Hearing the sound of thunder at the end of March in a dream
means famines, destruction, or that a swarm of locusts may devastate the lands,
or it could mean a drought that will kill African cattle. Also in this type of
dreams, if the sound of thunder is heard on the twenty first day of April, it means
that Western armies will drive East and establish military bases there. If the
first of April happens to be a Sunday, then March will be a month of great fear
and disturbances in the East, meanwhile, a conflict between the Western armies
will end by the death of a Western leader and the defeat of his army. If the dream
is seen on the eleventh day of April, it may mean that earthquakes or cyclones
will devastate many countries. If the dream takes place on the thirteenth day
of April, then it means that inflation will strike and price hiking will burden the
common people. If the dream is seen on the seventeenth day of April, it purports
a major political dispute between the leaders of the world, and if it is seen on
the twenty second day of April, it means that a disastrous evil will contaminate
many societies. If the dream takes place on the twenty third day of the month
of April, it means abundance, falling prices, fertility in the lands, while if it is
seen on the twenty fifth day of April, it will mean price hiking. If it is seen on
the twenty ninth day of April, it means that blessings, fertility, relief and joy
will spread in the land. If the sound of thunder is heard during the first nine
days of the month of May in a dream, it means the death of noble and leading
people in Turkey. During that period, rain will be in abundance, the land will
be fertile and the farms most productive. If the dream takes place between the
tenth and the twentieth day of the month of May, it means plagues. If the sound
of thunder is heard in a dream during the first ten days of June, it means the
death of renowned scholars, people of knowledge, religious leaders, or noble
people in Egypt. Meanwhile, prices will fall, and abundance will ease the
economy into a major economic turnaround. If the dream is seen during the first
six days of July, it means that good rain will fall during the following December
and that the land will be fertile. During that year, several Western leaders will
die, and a war may take place in Persia. Meanwhile, evil will spread throughout
Egypt, and it will be brought about by its own leaders. If the dream takes place
during the last seven days of July, it means that peace will spread throughout
the earth, prices will fall in Iraq and in East Africa, and a new disease will affect
fruit trees, banana trees, date trees, though wheat will be available in abun¬
dance, even if the farmers were concerned about it in the early part of the year.
If the sound of thunder is heard during the month of August in a dream, it
means blessings for the people in Syria and the people of Azerbaijan on the
Caspian Sea. At that time, sea passages will be blockaded, the highways will be
forsaken and a war may take place in China. If the sound of thunder is heard
at the end of the month of August in a dream, it means the end of a drought in
Egypt, risingprices, death, earthquakes, or major political changes. If the sound
of thunder is heard during the first eight days of September in a dream, it
announces a drought during the early part of the year that will be followed by
heavy rains and results in a good harvest. It also means that a long and
destructive war will take place. If the thunder takes place on the tenth day of
September in one’s dream, then it means a drought in Morocco. God knows best
what He has reserved for His creation and He is the best of judges.
Thunderbolt: Thunderbolts in a dream are signs of punishment, illness or death.
If a thunderbolt hits and burns something in the dream, it means false rumors,
damages, financial losses, recession, or dumping of merchandise. A thunderbolt
in a dream also means a warning for a sinner, the punishment for his crime,
devastation, calamities, diseases, tornados, plagues, a blast, a major political
shift, tyranny, decapitation, a bad death, inceneration, burining people alive,
or a robbery. If one is under surveillance, then seeing a thunderbolt in a dream
means a crackdown on his house or business. If thunderbolts strike people’s
homes in a dream, they mean the arrival of covetous and despicable criminals
in the company of decent and innocent people who are not aware of the true
identity of their companions. If thunderbolts strike the fields and damage the
crop in a dream, they represent taxes or an investigation. If one sees a town hit
and burnt with a thunderbolt in a dream, it means that an unjust governor will
rise in that town, and his government will bring fear, rising prices, economic
chaos, injustice or war. If a thunderbolt does not carry fire in the dream, then
it represents a new leader. (Also see Earthquake)

Dragon
A dragon in a dream represents a tyrant and an unjust ruler, or it could
mean a killing fire. The more heads a dragon has in a dream, the greater is his
danger. If a sick person sees a dragon in his dream, it means his death. If a
pregnant woman sees herself delivering a dragon in a dream, it means that she
will give birth to a child who will be chronically ill. Giving birth to a dragon in
a dream also represents a child who will be a great speaker or who will be known
by two different names, or that he might become a fortuneteller, a monk, an evil
person, a bandit or an insolent person who will be killed later. A dragon in a
dream also connotes the stretch of time. If one sees a dragon coming his way
without causing fear, and if the dragon talks to him with clear expressions, or
if the dragon gives him something, it mean glad tidings or good news. If a giant
dragon is transformed into a man or a woman in a dream, it represents an army
of male or female jinn {see alphabetically), and a marching army of female jinns
in a dream means an enemy who conceals his true purpose or identity. Such an
enemy has many heads and ways in the arts of ugly actions and evil thinking.
Each head from one to seven represents an adversity of a different magnitude
or an art of evildoing. If the dragon in one’s dream has seven heads, it represents
an enemy that cannot be equalled and whose evil designs cannot be paralleled.
If one sees himself owning and controlling a dragon in a dream, it means taking
advantage of a person who is mentally ill. (Also see Jinn)

Earthquake
In a dream, an earthquake represents fear of a higher authority. An
earthquake in a dream is also interpreted to indicate major changes in that
particular place, or a calamity that will befall a town or a country. If one sees
the mountains rumbling, shaking and crumbling, then being restored to their
original state in a dream, it means that a great happening will devastate such
a place. If one sees the earth shaking or caving in, and if everything sinks into
the ground, hitting a segment of the community and sparing another segment
of it in the dream, it means that a calamity will befall that place, and it will
manifest through social disorder, injustices or a plague. If one sees the earth
shaking and the firmament rent asunder in a dream, it means that major
adversities will hit their properties, cattle, farms and institutions, etcetera, as
a divine chastisement for people’s sins. If one sees the earth moving under his
feet in a dream, then it represents one’s striving and pursuit of his business
needs or livelihood. An earthquake in a dream also represents exposing secrets,
hearing bad news, a general scare, public disturbances, the surfacing of new
diseases. If one sees the walls crumbling and caving in a dream, it means his
death. Seeing an earthquake in an arable land in a dream means fertility or a
good harvest. An earthquake in a dream also may mean travels, dancing,
abstraction of business or having an argument with one’s family. If the destruc¬
tion hits the buildings in urban areas in the dream, it means business growth
for construction workers, contractors or related industries. Seeing an earthquake
hitting a fruit farm in a dream means a good harvest. If the quake takes place
during the month of May, it means a fierce battle, fights between people or
public disorder. If one’s dream takes place during the month of June, then it
means destruction of evil trades and their people. If the dream takes place
during the daylight time, then it means appointment of people of knowledge to
leading positions in the government. If one dreams of an earthquake during the
month of July, it means that a great person will die in that place. If it takes place
during the month of August, it means that an enemy will attack that country.
If it takes place during the month of September in the dream, it means that
a stranger will enter that town and subsequently, the town will be hit with a
severe plague and sufferings. If it takes place during the month of October in
one’s dream, then it represents a common illness, safety of pregnant women and
lowering or stabilization of prices. If it takes place during the month of November
in the dream, it means frequent miscarriages. If it takes place during the month
of December in a dream, then it represents severe calamities, plagues and
death, though no enemy threat is visible. If it takes place during the month
January in one’s dream, then it means the death of young people. If it takes
place during the month of February in the dream, then it means hunger and
miscarriages. If it takes place during the month of March in the dream, then
it means prosperity and a good harvest. If a pregnant woman sees an earthquake
in her dream, it means that she is delivering her baby. (Also see Cave in; De¬
struction; Earth; Thunder; Tremor)
