Ornaments
(Decoration) In a dream, ornaments are a sign of poverty. If one sees
the world decorated for him and he is able to ask for whatever he wishes from it
in a dream, it means that he will become poor, or that he may face destruction.
As for unusual ornaments that are not recognizable, or decorated lands one does
not recognize, then ornaments are a good sign, and the same goes for wearing
customary or traditional ornaments one is used to adorn himself with. (Also see

Leprosy
(A blood disease; An infectious skin and nerve affecting disease; Albino)
To see oneself as a leper in a dream means that one may receive an inheritance,
money, or a garment without ornaments. Leprosy in a dream also means
working in vain, or losing the benefits of one’s deeds because of one’s arrogance
toward his Lord, and consequently, he will earn God’s displeasure. It also means
being innocent from false allegations, or being subject to people’s slanders. If
one’s leprous condition spreads throughout his entire body in the dream, it
means a lasting prosperity. If one sees himself praying under leprous condition
in a dream, it means possessing unlawful and forbidden earnings, or forgetting
whatever one has memorized from the Quran. (Also see Albino)

accursed Satan. If one sees a newborn son or daughter coming out of his
abdomen in a dream, it means that such a child will be born and will grow to
govern that household. As for one's livers in a dream, they represent knowledge, money or children. If a man of knowledge sees his livers flying away from

property even if he has nothing. If one sees himself eating his own livers in a
dream, it means earning his livelihood. If they are cooked in the dream, then

or a bangle in a dream, it means disappointment or losses caused by one's
friends. If a man sees himself wearing a bracelet in a dream, it means tight

Meadow
(Beauty; Grass; Green; Knowledge; Paradise; Wisdom) In a dream, a
meadow represents an easy and a trouble free money, or it could represent a
wife who has little reservation and tactfulness. Seeing a meadow in a dream
also means receiving inner knowledge that is imparted directly by God Almighty
through mystical inspirations, or it could mean establishing a charitable
endowment. A meadow with its pasture, streams, perennials and spireas in a
dream represents the world, its ornaments, attractions and wealth. A meadow
in a dream also may mean a place of business or a work place. To see and cherish
a green meadow without being able to unfold its reach in a dream represents
the vastness and essence of Islam. If a poor person sees himself walking
through the meadows, gathering grass, leaves, herbs, flowers and eating them
in his dream, it means prosperity. If a rich person sees that in his dream, it
means that his wealth will increase. If someone who has renounced the
pleasures of this world or an ascetic sees such a dream, it means that he will
return to desiring it, or that he will be seduced by the world again. Walking
between meadows in a dream means going on a business trip or changing one’s
profession. The same interpretation is given if one sees himself walking
between two different markets. If one sees a deceased person sitting in the
meadows in a dream, it means that he is in paradise. Meadows in a dream also
represent the world and its pleasures, or they could represent a rich wife.
Seeing an unusual meadow which is admired only when beheld, and enjoyed
especially when visited in a dream represents a revered place, a house of God,
a mosque, the grave of a prophet, or the graves of the righteous ones. A meadow

wisdom, or paradise. If one sees himself walking from the midst of meadows

Cummerbund
(Belt; Cincture; Sash; Waistband) In a dream, the broad band worn
around the waist, also known as a sash or a cummerbund represents one’s
father, mother or paternal uncle. Tying a cummerbund around one’s waist in a
dream means that one has exhausted half of his life. Owning many cummer¬
bunds in a dream means longevity. A cummerbund in a dream also represents
one’s son or it could denote a bigman. If a ruler offers a cummerbund to someone
in a dream, it means that he is appointing him to a high ranking position.
Wearing a cummerbund without ornaments in a dream means that one will
receive the help of a great and a noble person, including moral and financial
support. If one is rich, then it means that he will have a great friend to support
him and whose inner thoughts and intentions are better than what one may
think. If a poor person ties a cummerbund around his waist in a dream, it means
extra earnings or power. If the cummerbund is studded and adorned with jewels
in the dream, then such jewels represent one’s helpers, supporters or obedient
subjects. Such associates will carry on his commands whether they purport good
or evil. Somehow, such a leader will also be unjust and hypocritical. If the
ornaments are made of iron in the dream, it means that his associates are a
group of strong people. If the ornaments are made from copper, then such
associates care only for worldly gains. If the ornaments are made from led in the
dream, it means that they are weak people. If the ornaments are made from
silver in the dream, it means that the master or leader is a wealthy person and
he will be followed by a strong son who will carry the work of his father. If one
is given a cummerbund, and if he does not wear it in the dream, then it means
travels. A broken cummerbund in a dream means loss of power or perhaps one’s
death. If one sees a snake rather than a cummerbund around his waist in a
dream, it represents a money belt. A cummerbund in a dream also means work
for a jobless person, a wife for an unmarried person, and should it be carrying
many ornaments, then it means the added blessing of having several children.

Transformation
(Changing form) Transformation by substitution in a dream
where one thing is converted into something else. If a withered tree is trans¬
formed into a blossoming one in a dream, it means political changes, changes
in worldly conditions, or reversal of conditions from good to bad, or from bad to
good. This element includes the transformation of inner substances or physical
ones. For example, if sees himself as an old person in a dream, when in real life
he is young, it means progress in his spiritual life and gaining honor. If he is an
old person and sees himself as a young boy in a dream, it means indulging in
wrongdoing. If one sees a known old person regaining his youth, it means that
the material conditions of the person seeing the dream will turn around to one’s
advantage or otherwise, i.e., richness into poverty and vice-versa, or if he is sick,
he will recover from his illness. If one is transformed into a beautiful shoot of
green or a blossoming branch of a tree in a dream, it means that he may die
within a short time. Becoming taller in a dream means longevity, prosperity, or
begetting a son. If one finds himself missing partial mental keenness or physical
abilities or a limb in a dream, it means that he may suffer losses relating to his
worldly interests. If a man sees himself transformed into a woman, and wears
her apparels, ornaments and make-up in a dream, it means that he may suffer
humiliation, adversities and abuse. If a woman sees herself transformed into a
man, or if she grows a beard in a dream, it means that she will reestablish her
connection with a missing child. As a man in the dream, and if she is pregnant,
it means that she will beget a son who may die in his early youth, but if she is
not pregnant, it means that she is no longer fertile. If one sees himself flying with
wings in a dream, it means travels. If one sees himself transformed into a
wooden staff in a dream, it represents his insolence. If one sees himself
transformed into an iron rod in a dream, it means longevity. If one sees himself
transformed into a bridge in a dream, it means that he may become a ruler, a
wise man, or a man of knowledge whom people will seek to benefit from his
wisdom. If a person sees his sick child turn into a bird in a dream, it means the
death of the child. If one sees himself turned into a beast in a dream, it means
that he will be segregated from the believers to live alone because of his evil
qualities. If one sees himself turned into a deer, a gazelle or an antelope in a
dream, it means that he will become obsessed with his sexual life, or that he will
become mentally deranged to the degree of indulging in bisexual practices. If he
turns into a pig in a dream, it means prosperity surrounded with absence of
human dignity. If one sees a steer transformed into a wolf in a dream, it
represents a government employee who will turn unjust. However, according to
Islamic interpretations of the human transformation into a lower category of
creatures phenomena, if such transformation takes place in real life, it connotes
a curse and a punishment, and it does not last for more than three days, and
it will culminate in death. (Also see Changing form)

Pearl necklace
(Covenant; Husband; Quran; Wisdom) A pearl necklace in a
dream represents woman’s beauty and ornaments. A pearl necklace, or a
necklace made of corals in a dream also means piety, fear of wrongdoing, or an
expression of reverence before God Almighty. All of that is subject to the value,
beauty and clarity of the necklace, or the number of gems it holds. As for a
woman, a pearl necklace in a dream represents her husband, or her young son.
If a man sees himself wearing a pearl necklace in a dream, it means that he is
a seeker of knowledge, spiritual understanding and wisdom. It could also mean
fulfilling a covenant, making a promise, or getting married. If one’s wife is
pregnant, it means that she will give birth to a son who will grow to be a wise
person, a man of knowledge, or a judge. This interpretation is possible in most
cases except if the necklace breaks in the dream. In this case, if the necklace is
broken, it means that one will break his promise, or forget his learning, become
heedless, suffer eviction, deportation, or be exiled from his home or country. If
one sees himself wearing one or even two pearl necklaces in a dream, it means
that he subscribes to God’s revelations, memorizes God’s Words, recites the holy
Quran, speaks words of wisdom, and that he is one of the carriers of the divine
trust who demonstrates trustworthiness, piety, trueness, religious commitment
and beauty of character. All depending on the beauty, radiance and clarity of

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)

of respect, for only harm could come from looking into a silver mirror in a dream.
Silverware, silver cups or silver pitchers, as well as the golden ones in a dream
also may represent good deeds that lead to paradise, or they could mean good
business and prosperity. To see expensive silver items mixed with trivial
imitations in a dream means innovation and suspicious behavior. Silver ornaments
in a dream mean forcing one’s way, or obliging a jealous person to revert the
course of his actions. Buying something with silver coins of unknown origin, or

person in the dream it means that he will receive good news. Seeing Jinn
standing by one’s door in a dream means losses, a vow that must be fulfilled, or
experiencing bad luck. Seeing Jinn entering one’s house and doing work there
in a dream means that thieves may enter that house and cause major losses. If

dream means familiarity with, and keeping the company of men of knowledge,
or people of inner knowledge. If one marries a female from amongst the Jinn in
a dream, it means that he will marry an insolent wife, or that he may suffer a

means that he holds fast to his prayers, fasting, controls his carnal self and base
desires. Engaging in a battle with Jinn in a dream means that one will be safe
from their evil. To befriend a known leader from amongst the Jinn in a dream
means becoming a police officer and make it one’s profession to pursue criminals
and bandits. It also could mean that one might become a guided man of
knowledge or a teacher. Seeing Jinn gathering in a known locality in a dream
