(Caller to prayers; Muslim caller on the hour of prayers) In a dream, a
muezzin represents someone who calls for what is good and blessed, a broker,
an officiant who performs the wedding ceremony, the messenger of the king, or
his door attendant. If a muezzin recites the entire call to prayers in a dream,
it may denote the pilgrimage season. The call to prayers in a dream also may
represent a siren announcing a burglary or a fire. If a woman calls to prayers
on top of a minaret in a dream, it means innovation and that a major trial will
emerge in that locality. If a child calls to prayers from the top of a minaret and
at a time other than the hour of prayers in a dream, it means that ignorant
people will rise to govern and lead his community. The call to prayers in a dream
also represents an official announcement. An unknown muezzin in a dream
represents the governor, or the ruler of that land. (Also see Cock fighting;
Minaret; Masjid; Mosque; Ram)

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.

Cock fighting
(Gamecock) Cock fight in a dream means prodding and instigating
a dispute between close friends or colleagues, or it could mean provoking enmity
between scholars or a dispute between two muezzins who call to prayers in a
mosque.
Interpreted by Ibn Sirin
Mosque
(Jami; Masjid) The main city mosque or the central mosque in a dream
represents the king, the governor, or the ruler of a Muslim country, since he
takes care of establishing the divine laws as well as he is the symbol of Islam
and the decisive judge between the lawful and the unlawful. Smelling an apple
inside a mosque means getting married. A mosque in a dream is like the central
market that people intend daily and endeavor to make profit therein. It is a place
where people will profit according to their deeds and efforts. A mosque in a
dream also represents one who is to be obeyed, respected and revered such as
a father, a teacher, a shaikh or a man of knowledge. It also asserts justice if one
who enters a mosque in his dream is unjustly treated. The main city mosque in
a dream represents the Quranic revelation, the ocean of knowledge, a place of
purification and washing one’s sins, the graveyard where submissiveness and
contemplation are evoked, the washing and shrouding of the dead, medicine,
silence, focusing one’s intention and facing the qiblah at the Kaaba in Mecca.
Seeing the main city mosque in a dream also means to recognize something good
and to act upon it. It also could be interpreted as the shelter from one’s enemy,
and a sanctuary and a shelter of the believer from fear, and a house of peace.
The ceiling of the mosque represents the intimate and vigilant entourage of a
king. Its outstretch represents the dignitaries. Its chandeliers represent its
wealth and ornaments. Its prayer mats represent the king’s justice and his
knowledgeable advisors. Its doors represent the guards. Its minaret represents
the king’s vice-regent, the official speaker of the palace or it announcer. If the
main mosque in the dream is interpreted to represent the ruler of the land, then
its pillars represent the element of time. Its lights represent the noble retinue
and the wise men of his epoch. The ceiling represents the knowledge contained
in the books that protect his justice and his references. The minaret will then
represent his chief minister or advisor. The pulpit represents his servant. The
prayer niche represents his wife, or it may represent his lawful earnings, or a
righteous and a chaste wife. If one sees a mosque burning in a dream, it means
death, losses and political changes in the country. The main mosque of the town
also represents the pious people dwelling therein, the men of knowledge, the
wise men, devotion, or a hermitage. Its niche represents the leader of the people
(Imam). The caller to prayers (Muezzin) represents the judge or a gnostic from
that town or country who calls people to the right path and whose call is
harkened to by the believer. The doors of a mosque in a dream represent the
trustees and guards who shelter people from outside attacks. If one sees any of
that in a dream, or whatever condition these elements are in, they represent the
current condition of the people, and this is what the central mosque represents
in one’s dream. If one sees grass growing inside a mosque in a dream, then it
means a wedding. (Also see Imam; Kaaba; Masjid; Minaret; Minbar; Muezzin)

Caller to prayers

and blessed, or he could represent a broker or an officiant who performs wedding
ceremonies or the messenger of the king or his door attendant. (Also see Mu¬
ezzin)
Interpreted by Ibn Sirin
Crescent
(New moon) If the new crescent appears in its correct position in a
dream, it means begetting a blessed son or receiving an important appointment
or profits from one’s business. Seeing the gathering of several crescents in a
dream means attending the pilgrimage to Mecca. A red crescent in a dream
means a miscarriage. If a crescent falls to the earth in a dream, it means a
newborn. Seeing the new crescent when everyone else is looking an failing to
see it in a dream represents one’s death, or it could mean that one will be
aberrant and corrupt during that year of his life. Seeing the new moon at a time
other than the time of its birth in a dream means happy news, glad tidings, the
home returning of a long awaited traveller or having a newborn. The birth of
a new moon in a dream also denotes the truth of one’s promise, or it could mean
receiving money, for rent is usually due at the beginning of each month. The
appearance of the new moon or crescent in the wrong position, such as in the
South or the North in a dream means committing or witnessing a despicable
action that arouses abhorrence and that may die quickly, depending on how long
will that new crescent remain in that position. The new crescent in a dream also
represents a leader, an unexpected happy news or it could represent the cry of
a newborn or a rebel. If the new crescent stands surrounded with a gloomy
darkness, or if water or blood dribbles away from it, even if there is no rain
during that night in the dream, it denotes the arrival of a traveler from his
journey or the climbing of a muezzin to the minaret to call for prayers or the
standing of a preacher on the pulpit to give his sermon, payment of one’s debts,
performing one’s obligatory pilgrimage or the end of one’s life. If the new
crescent is opaque, or if it is created from yellow copper, or if it has the shape
of a serpent or a scorpion in the dream, then it denotes evil. Seeing the new
crescent in a dream in the same night it is supposed to be born means that one’s
wife will conceive a child. In a dream, a new crescent also represents a little
child, repentance from sin, dispelling adversities, release from prison or recovering
from an illness. Seeing the crescent when it is rising in a dream is better than
seeing it when it is declining. If the new crescent suddenly disappears in one’s
dream, it means that one’s project, object or intention will not be fulfilled. (Also
see Moon)

Column
(Pillar; Post) In a dream, a column represents one’s religion. If one sees
a column descending from the firmament in a dream, it means a divine favor and
a blessing to have a just, compassionate and a forbearing ruler in that land. If
one is hit with a post, or if he uses it to beat someone in a dream, it means hearing
or exchanging harsh words that describe the quality of the one who is struck.
If one sees himself leaning against a pillar that he bought or which is given to
him in his dream, it means that he will rely upon an old woman for his livelihood,
or that he will marry an old woman. A column in a dream also represents a friend
one can depend on. A leaning column in a dream represents a worker who cheats
his employer, disobeys him and who is a hypocrite. If a worker sees a leaning
post in his dream, it means that his employer will lean toward kindness and
appreciation of his workers. Columns in a dream also represent important and
strong men who are capable of managing their responsibilities. Owning a
column or becoming a column in a dream, and if one qualifies, it means that he
will become a leader of his community, a pillar in his own field, or a beacon of
knowledge and a pillar of wisdom who is sought by knowledge seeking people.
If one becomes a pillar in a dream, it also could mean his death, or it could mean
crying. A pillar in a dream also represents a father, a son, money, capital, a
partner, a vehicle, one’s wife or a leader. A marble column in a dream represents
a great wealth, a great man, or a great woman. A column made from granite in
a dream represents someone who despises himself. If it is from stone, it means
fast changing conditions. If it is a wooden column in the dream, then it
represents a hypocrite. The pillars of a mosque represent the Imam, the
muezzin, the servants and the people who pray in it. (Also see Base)

Minaret
(Spiritual guide; Letter carrier; Lighthouse; Minaret of a mosque) In a
dream, the minaret of a mosque represents a righteous man who fosters unity
and love between people, who calls them to live by their religious covenant and
guides them on the path of God Almighty. If a minaret is demolished in a dream,
it represents the death of such a spiritual guide, fading of his name, dispersal
of his community, and perhaps it could lead to the reversal of their conditions.
The minaret of the city’s central mosque in a dream represents a letter carrier,
or a guide calling people to God’s path. Falling down from the top of a minaret
into a well in a dream means marrying a strong minded woman who uses
vicious expressions, when one already has a pious wife with whom he enjoys
peace and tranquility. It also means losing one’s authority or control. Climbing
a wooden minaret and calling people to prayers in a dream means attaining
authority and rising in station through hypocrisy. Sitting alone on the top of
a minaret, praising God’s glory and glorifying His oneness in a dream means
becoming famous, while the loud glorifications mean that one’s distress and
sorrow will be lifted by God’s leave. The minaret of a mosque in a dream also
represents the chief minister of the ruler, or it could represent the muezzin.

Ram
In a dream, a ram represents a noble person. Holding a ram by its wool in
a dream means taking money from a noble person. Holding a ram from its horn
in a dream means being restrained by a noble man from engaging in something.
Holding a ram from its buttock in a dream means controlling or managing the
interests of a noble man, or it could mean inheriting him, or marrying his

noble person. Killing a ram for other than food in a dream means killing a noble
person. If one kills a ram during a wartime in a dream, then it represents his
enemy. A slaughtered ram in a dream represents a murder. Buying a ram from
a butcher in a dream means that a noble and a great person will come to need
the person seeing the dream who will save him from a foreseeable danger, or
help him to recover from an illness. Slaughtering a ram in a dream means
recovering from an illness. Carrying a ram over one’s head in a dream means
caring or managing the business or accounts of a noble and a rich person. Riding
a ram and driving it at will in a dream means conquering a great person. If one
sees a ram riding him in a dream, then it means that such a great and powerful
person will rise above him and control his life. Breaking the horns of a ram in
a dream means weakening a powerful person. Fighting with a ram in a dream
also means fighting with a powerful person. Whoever wins the fight in the
dream, will eventually win it in wakefulness. Seeing a dead ram in a dream
means the death of such a great person. Dividing the meat of a ram in a dream
means dividing the wealth of a great person after his death. Sacrificing a ram
to eat and to distribute from its meat as a charity to poor and needy people in
the dream means the release of a prisoner, his escape from capture, dispelling
distress and worries, payment of one’s debts, attending the annual pilgrimage
to God’s House in Mecca, or recovering from an illness. Slaughtering and
skinning a ram then hanging it in a dream means stripping one’s enemy from
his money and wealth. Seeing a skinned ram inside one’s house in a dream
means the death of a relative. If it is the leg of a ram, then it means the death
of the closest relative. Broiling a ram in a dream means governing for one year
after which period one may be imprisoned. The number of rams in a dream
represents the number of years. Thus, seeing them also represents the number
of years one will serve in his job. The wool of a ram in a dream means money.
A ram in a dream also represents the muezzin in a mosque, a general in the
army, a deposed ruler, or a humiliated person. If a ram attacks someone in a
dream, it signifies an attack by one’s enemy. If a ewe becomes a ram in a dream,
it means that one’s wife will no longer bear children. If one is not married, then
it means winning victory in his life. (Also see Ewe; Sacrifice; Sheep)
