A palace in a dream represents a prison, tightness, shortage of cash, or
loss of respect for an abominable and sinful person. If a rich person sees a palace
in his dream, then it means rising in station, or repayment of his debts. Seeing
a palace from a distance in a dream also means prosperity. A palace in a dream
represents an unknown person, or a private person who maintains a steady
religious life. Entering a palace in a dream means gaining authority, rising in
station, and a growing religious adherence. If one sees himself managing his
own palace in a dream, it means exaltation, power and reverence. If the palace
he is managing in the dream belongs to someone else, then it means earnings
from such a person. A palace in a dream also denotes good deeds. Entering a
palace in a dream also means getting married. Entering a palace made of glass
means a marriage that will not last. It is thus said that a palace in a dream can
be interpreted in eight different ways: that is blessings, money, leadership,
rank, management, authority, attaining one’s goals and happiness. Residing in
one of the palaces of paradise in a dream means leadership, victory, or marriage.

assiduity, piety, a pretext, an illness, an ongoing debt, cognizance of the one who puts the chain, or a rope around one's hands. A silver band in a dream means
a lasting marriage. Ifit is a brass band in the dream, then it means decisiveness
but with trickery and regarding something loathsome. Ifthe bond is made from
lead in the dream, then it means having determination about something weak
or unworthy of such attention. A bond made with a rope in the dream signifies
piety and religiousness. If it is mad of wood in the dream, then it means
persistence in hypocrisy. If it is a bond made of a piece of cloth, or a thread in

a bond also means delays when one is intending to travel, and for a merchant
it means salability of his merchandise, and as for someone suffering from
depression, it means perseverance of his sorrows. To see oneselftied-up in God's
cause in a dream means caring for one's family. Seeing oneself tied-up or
fettered in a city or a village in a dream means living there. Being bound inside

an already bound and bed stricken person in a dream means his death and for

Wearing a yellow garment in a dream means sickness. Ifone sees himself tied-

quences. In general, a bond in a dream signifies distress and poverty. (Also see

Arched bridge
(Bridge; Stone bridge; Viaduct) An arched bridge or a viaduct in
a dream represents suspicious matters or mundane questions or worldly vs.
ungodly concerns. An arched bridge or a viaduct in a dream also could represents
one’s wife, or it could mean dispelling of one’s worries or trouble. Driving over
an arched bridge or through a viaduct in a dream means riding a vehicle . An
arched bridge or a stone bridge in a dream also signifies richness, luxury,
longevity, a sickness, renouncing one’s allegiance, or it could mean breaking a
promise. An arched bridge in a dream also could represent a middle man, a wise
man, or a ruler, except if the bridge leads to a loathsome place, or to a dead end.
Crossing an arched bridge that leads to the palace of a ruler in a dream means
receiving money, or it could mean getting married to a noble person. An
unknown bridge in a dream represents the world and particularly if it connects
the city with the cemetery. It also could represent a ship, or the Bridge of the
Day of Judgement, for it is the last hurdle before reaching paradise. If one
crosses an arched bridge in his dream, then it means that he will cross the abode
of this world into the abode of the hereafter and particularly if one meets
departed souls from the world or enters unknown places or sees uncommon
structures, or if a bird carries him by air, or if a beast swallows him, or if he falls
into a ditch or flies into the heavens in his dream, all of which also means
recovering from an illness or undertaking a long journey, or it could mean
returning home from a long journey. If on the other side of the bridge one ends
in a fertile farm, luscious fields, or meets with an old woman in his dream, it
means money, benefits and prosperity. If the other side of the bridge leads to
a mosque in the dream, it means that one will achieve his goal, fulfill his
intention or perform a pilgrimage to God’s House in Mecca. If one becomes a
bridge in a dream, it means that he will acquire extensive powers or becomes
an inspiration to others, or that people will come to need his authority and help.
Crossing a wooden bridge in a dream means meeting with a group of hypocrites.

Clouds
(Concealment; Gloom; Dream; Life; Rains; Skies; Soldiers; Sufferings;
Vapor; Water) In a dream, clouds represent the course of life which provides
people with rainwater to drink, water to wash their dirt, water for their crops
and sustenance. Clouds in a dream also represent knowledge, understanding,
wisdom, clarity as they show the divine kindness. Clouds in a dream also
represent an army or friends who carry the water and the water represents life
and the original element from which they were created. Clouds in a dream also
represent ships, airplanes, or if they are black or carry stones or bring thunder,
then they represent the antagonistic character of a leader who deprives his
people from their rights or causes them to suffer through restrictive laws or
harsh mandates. If one sees a cloud inside his house or descending upon him in
his room in a dream, it means that he will join the company of believers or
receives an award, or that he is endowed with wisdom, or should he wish for a
child, his wife will conceive one. If he is a merchant, it means that his
merchandise will arrive to its port of destination. If one sees himself riding over
a cloud in a dream, it means exaltation or marriage to a pious woman, or that
one will attend a pilgrimage should it be his wish. Otherwise, should he wish
for it, he will become renowned for his knowledge and wisdom. Should he
qualify, it means that he will lead an army, or that he will rise in rank, or that
he will be sent as an emissary of his government or as an ambassador. If people
are expecting clouds to water their farms, and should one see masses of clear
clouds carrying rains and coming in that direction in the dream, it means a
calamity. If the clouds carry poisonous rains or acid rains or polluted rains, or
if they are driven by heavy winds, or if they carry fires or dust or ashes or rocks
from a volcano, they mean that a calamity will strike that locality, or that they
will receive news about travellers the majority of whom will perish during a trip.
Clouds also mean innovations and man made religions that may spread throughout
the land. If one sees himself merging with the clouds in a dream, it means that
he associates himself with a person in authority or a wise man or a man of
knowledge. If one sees himself eating clouds in his dream, it means that he will
gain lawfully earned money from such a person, or that perhaps he may gain
wisdom. If one sees himself amassing clouds in a dream, it means that he will
learn wisdom at the hand of a close associate. If one sees himself mixing with
the clouds but does not carry anything out of them in a dream, it means that he
will mix with people of knowledge and learn nothing from what they say, or
practice nothing of what they teach. If one sees himself riding over the clouds
in a dream, it means that he may become famous for his wisdom and knowledge.
If one sees his own son turned into a cloud in a dream, it means that he earns
his livelihood from teaching wisdom or religious knowledge to others. Black clouds
in a dream mean wisdom, forbearance, honesty and joy. If the black clouds also
carry a threat or cause fear in the dream, it means that one will be reprimanded
by such a wise person. If one sees himself building a house over a cloud in a
dream, it means that he lives an honest life, earns lawful money and lives his
life with wisdom and integrity. If one builds a palace over a cloud in a dream,
it means that through his wisdom, he avoids committing sins. It also means that
he prospers from such a wisdom or builds a palace in paradise with his deeds.
If one sees a cloud in his hand and rain falling from it in a dream, it denotes the
wisdom he speaks. If one turns into a rainy cloud in a dream, it means that he
lives wealthy and benefits people from his money. If one turns into a cloud that
rains gold in a dream, it means that he will learn wisdom from a great man.
Clouds in a dream also represent the people in authority who do others favors
and ask for no reward. If one hears a human sound calling him from behind a
cloud in a dream, it means that God willing he will attend a pilgrimage. ( See
Invisible caller). A black cloud in a dream also represents a just judge, while a
white cloud represents a blessed and a noble justice. Clouds in season in a dream
represent benefits, profits and prosperity. A mass of black clouds carrying no
rain in a dream mean benefits, extreme cold, sadness or sorrow. Red clouds in
a dream mean distress, adversities or a sickness. A cloud covering a town in a
dream means blessings. If the person who sees such black clouds in his dream
is intending to take a trip, it will take place, though his safety cannot be insured.
On the other hand, if he is unhappy about something, then if he sees such a
dream, it means that his sorrow will be dispelled. White clouds in a dream are
a sign of work, a job or business. Rising fog in a dream means taking a journey,
or returning from one. Red clouds in a dream means lack of work. A gloomy cloud
in a dream means stress. If one sees clouds welcoming him in a dream, it means
glad tidings. If he is an evil person, it means a calamity and a chastisement for
his sins. If one sees clouds covering the sun in a dream, it means that the ruler
of that land is ill. If one sees himself wearing a shirt of clouds in a dream, it
means blessings that God Almighty has favored him with. Clouds in a dream
also represent virtues, miracles, favors, rains, love and blessings, because they
also appear when a prophet or a saint pray for rain or to shelter a blessed person
from the heat of the sun. Clouds in a dream also mean travel by sea or air.

King
(God Almighty; Governor; Mayor; President; Royalty; Sultan) The true King
is God Almighty. If the king is pleased with someone in a dream, it means that
God Almighty is pleased with him, and if the king is angry with him in the
dream, it means that God Almighty is displeased with him. If one sees the king
frowning in a dream, it means that he fails to properly perform his prayers or
show true religious devotion. If one sees him smiling in a dream, it means profits
in one’s material as well as spiritual life. If one sees that God Almighty has
appointed him as a king over a land, it means that he will receive such a regency,
should he qualify. Later on, unrest will bring tyrants, or dictators to justice,
while people of knowledge and piety will survive and regain their authority. If
one sees himself as a calif or as an Imam in a dream and should he qualify, it
means that he will receive such an honor, rank, trust and fame in the land,
though his vice-regency will not become hereditary. However, it is a bad omen
if he becomes a calif in the dream and does not qualify for such an appointment.
In such a case, and by contrast, he will be humiliated and dispersed, and his own
helpers will become his superiors, while his enemies will rejoice at his misfortune.
If one sees himself as a king in a dream, though in reality he does not qualify,
it means that he may die quickly, and the same is true if a sick person sees
himself turned into a king. If he is healthy, it means that someone in his family
may die shortly. Seeing a king in a dream also denotes exposing hidden secrets.
If a philosopher or a fortuneteller sees himself transformed into a king in a
dream, then it denotes glad tidings should he not complain about it in his dream.
If a slave sees himself becoming a king in a dream, it means that he will be set
free. If one sees himself becoming one of the great kings of this world in a dream,
it means that he will attain worldly success in his life, though it will be
accompanied with religious failure. If the person is a natural con artist, it means
that he will be captured and imprisoned. If a man sees himself awarded a
knighthood that is suitable only for woman, then it means his death. If one sees
the kingreprimandinghim in a dream, it means peace between them. If one sees
himself arguing a case with knowledge and wisdom before a king in a dream,
it means that he will win his case and receive what he came for. If one sees
himself complaisant with the king about his case in the dream, it means that
he will lose his case and the judgment will go the king’s way. If one sees himself
walking with a king and rubbing shoulders with him in the dream, it means that
he will oppose the king or disobey him. If he sees himself following the king in
a dream, it means that he will pursue the king’s traditions during his lifetime
or after his death. If one enters the king’s palace prostrating in a dream, it means
that he will be appointed in a leadership position and receive the king’s pardon.
If one sees himself mixing with the king’s harem, or sleeping with them and
should there be signs of comfort, trueness, or wisdom in his act in the dream,
it means that he will enter the king’s inner circles. Otherwise, should he in the
dream fear the consequences of what is happening, or if he lacks trueness, or
if he slanders them, or indulges in what is unlawful for him to do, then should
he reach the king’s door, it means that he will triumph against his enemies
inside that palace, and they can cause no harm to him. If in his dream, the king
gives him a gift, it means that he will win victory and honor in his life to equal
the value of that gift. If the king gives him a brocaded silk garment in the dream,
it means that he will give him a wife from the royal family. If the king speaks
to someone in a dream, it means honor, fame, wealth after poverty, release from
jail, expansion of one’s business, or victory over one’s enemy. If an appointed
governor sees himself looking into a mirror in a dream, it means that he will be
dismissed from his post. If an appointed king sees someone who looks like him
sitting in his throne in a dream, it means that he will beget a son. If he divorces
his wife in a dream, it means that he will abdicate his throne. To see oneself
sleeping with the king in the same bed and without a curtain between them, and
if the king leaves the bed while one remains resting therein in the dream, it
means that his mixing with the king will incur jealousy, or that he will inherit
him. If one leaves the bed before the king, it means that he will escape from a
great danger. If one sees himself sleeping alone in the king’s bed in a dream, it
means that he will marry a woman from the governing family, or that he may
spend from his own money for the sake of a woman in that palace. If the bed is
in the palace though unknown in the dream, it means that he will become a
member of that government. If a king hears his subjects praising him in a dream,
it means that he will show good qualities. If his subjects shower him with money
in a dream, it means that they speak ill of him or cast blame at him. If they
shower him with sugar in the dream, it means they speak nicely of him, and if
they shower him with stones in the dream, it means that they will speak harshly
of him. If one sees the people paying obeisance and bowing to him in a dream,
it means that they will stand humbly before him. If they prostrate themselves
before him in a dream, it means that they truly praise him. If a king sees himself
following the opinion of a woman in a dream, it means that he will lose his
kingdom or fall victim to depression, or that he will be thrown into jail. If he
opposes her in the dream, it means that he will escape from a great danger. If
a king sees himself walking in a dream when a common subject comes near him
and whispers something in his ear, the commoner here represents the angel of
death ‘Izrail, and it means that the king may die a sudden death. Eating from
the hand of one’s servant in a dream represents the growing of one’s authority,
increase of his business, knowledge, or wisdom. If a king sees himself preparing
a banquet for guests in a dream, it means that his opponents will come to argue
their case, though he will win over them. If he sees himself placing food on the
table in a dream, it means that a messenger will come to see him concerning a
dispute. If the food is sweet, then the problem will end nicely. If the food is
greasy, then the problem will be a lasting one. Sour food then means steadfastness.
Eating on the table of a just and a righteous king in a dream means blessings
and honor. If the king is seen walking alone in the markets in a dream, it means
that he is a humble, just, and a strong ruler. A sick king in a dream represents
weakness in his faith and injustice toward his subjects. If the king is carried over
people’s shoulders in a dream, it means lack of faith and lack of attendance to
one’s religious obligations, or weakness in his ruling. If the king dies and does
not get buried in a dream, it means that the king and his subjects are deviates.
If he is buried and the people walk away from his grave in the dream, it means
that one will pursue something of no benefit, unless God Almighty decrees
otherwise. If one sees the king’s head transformed into a ram’s head in a dream,
it means that the king is a just and a kind ruler. If his head is transformed into
a dog’s head in the dream, then it represents his vile nature. If his chest turns
into a stone in the dream, it means that his heart will become like a rock. If one
sees his own hand turn into the king’s hand in a dream, it means that he will
receive a leadingjob. If one sees the king flying with wings in a dream, it means
that his authority will spread. If his fingers increase in shape or number in the
dream, it means that his greed and injustice will manifest. Any dream about a
deceased king will manifest in his successors or in his progeny.

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)

Tile maker
A tile maker in a dream represents distress, adversities, trouble,
hoarding money for the benefit of others, or he could represent anyone who has
no descendents or posterity. In a dream, a tile maker also represents wealth, a
palace, the high society, beauty, unity and love. Laying tiles in a dream means
preparing oneself for something important, or building a corridor or a pathway.

S.iddiqun
He is the arc angel Saddiqiin, upon whom be peace, who is in charge
of interpreting the meaning of dreams and visions, or giving explanatory
parables drawn from the heavenly Preserved Tablet. Seeing him (uwbp) in a
dream represents glad tidings, festivities, fulfilling promises, recognizing the
inevitability of death, enjoying life, travels, coming home, marriage, children,
a high ranking appointment, gaining power, victory, or perhaps defeat and
humiliation. Whatever this blessed angel of dreams gives or tells will take effect
as it is, for he is in charge of such a duty. The arc angel Saddiqiin in a dream
also represents the speaker of the house, the translator of the palace, the one
who delivers the royal decree and knows the inner secrets. Seeing him in a
dream also represents piety, medicine, clarity, perspicacity, transparency of
one’s vision, the school teacher who keeps looking at the blackboard, the
librarian, an official speaker, logs, or books.
