(See Praises)
Interpreted by Ibn Sirin
Ishaq
(Also known as John in Western traditions. God’s prophet Ishaq, son of the
prophet Jacob, upon both of them be peace.) In a dream, seeing him indicates
adversities and hardships. If one has a son who ran away in disobedience to his
father, and if he sees God’s prophet Ishaq in a dream, it means that he will
return to his home and be obedient again. This dream also indicates a surge of
glad tidings, peace and tranquility. Seeing Ishaq (uwbp) in a dream also means
suffering from persecution by the senators of one’s town, or from some of his
relatives, and finally God Almighty will come to his help, and grant him back
his integrity and honor. If one sees him in his best form and radiant beauty, it
becomes a sign of glad tidings, whereby one’s progeny will engender leaders,
governors and righteous people. Seeing him in a dream also may mean coming
out of tight circumstances into a more relaxed ones, changing from heedlessness
into guidance, poverty into richness, and from disobedience to one’s parents to
obeying them again. If one sees himself transformed into Isliaq (uwbp) or to wear
his robe in a dream means that he may near his death then be saved from it.
Islam: (Religion of Islam; Surrender to God’s will; Submission) To see oneself as
a Muslim, praising God Almighty, thanking Him, facing the Ka‘aba in one’s
prayers, or to see oneself embracing Islam in a dream means straightening one’s
life, or repentance from one’s sins. If one sees himself renewing his Islam in a
dream, it means safety from plagues, sickness, or adversities. To proclaim the
two testimonies: ‘There is no god other than Allah, Muhammad is the Messenger
of Allah,” in one’s dream means relief from distress, or guidance after heedlessness.
Saying these testimonies in a dream also may mean returning to one’s parents
after having abandoned them. It also means returning to a place one has earlier
deserted, or to using earlier criterions in one’s life. If a Muslim recites these
proclamations in a dream, it means that he will testify to the truth in a court
of justice, or become known for his truthfulness. (Also see Exalting God’s one¬
ness; Exclamation of God’s sovereignty; Imam; Meadow; mosque; Quran; Pil¬
grimage)

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)

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.

Tattoo
If a person sees his hands tattooed with henna in a dream, it means that
he cheats to earn his livelihood, or that he tricks others to get what he needs.
Consequently, he will be exposed and his enemy will rejoice at his misfortune.
If a woman sees her hands tattooed in a dream, it means that she will trick
someone to repossess her rightfully owned jewelry. If the tattoo is made with
gold in the dream, it means performing an old but a polite trick. If the tattoo is
done with mud in the dream, it means praising God Almighty. If a woman sees
the lines of her tattoo mixing together, or as though the dye has started to run
in the dream, it means difficulties with her children. If a man sees his feet dyed
and tattooed in a dream, it means that he will be tried with family problems.

Praising God Almighty and thanking Him in a dream means receiving
benefits and a great reward. It also means finding guidance for one’s religious
life. Praising God Almighty in a dream is also interpreted as begetting one or
two sons who will grow to become religious scholars. As for a poor man, praising
God Almighty in a dream means wealth. If one sees people praising him in a
dream, it means that he will live up to it and do good. If he sees them showering
him with money in the dream, it means that they are speaking ill of him.
