Companions of the Prophet (uwbp)
(Followers; Righteous people; Successors) If
one sees in a dream that one of the companions of God’s Messenger, upon whom
be peace, his followers or their successors entering a town or locality that is
suffering under natural adversities, oppression or war, it means relief for its
people and reversal of their conditions. It could also mean that their leaders will
become guided again. To see the gnostics of a land means increase in one’s
knowledge. To see the wise men of a land, means increase in one’s wisdom. To
see the preachers of a town in a dream means spiritual growth and increase in
one’s happiness. To see the righteous dwellers of a land and God’s trustees
therein in a dream means increase in one’s devotion. If one sees past companions
alive in a dream, it means prosperity, justice and economic growth for the
inhabitants, coming from a God-fearing leadership. If one sees himself resur¬
recting one of the companions, their followers or successors in a dream, it means
that he will revive his practices and traditions. If one sees himself turned into
one of the known righteous companion or followers of God’s Prophet, upon whom
be peace in a dream, it means trials in one’s life to equal the exalted station of
such blessed beings, though the end is praiseworthy. (Also see Righteous people;
Scholars)

Prophet
In a dream, each one of God’s prophets, upon all of them be peace and
blessings, is like a compassionate father toward his son, who is trying to save
his child from the hell of this world and the hell-fire in the hereafter. In a dream,
a prophet also represents a teacher, a tutor, a shaikh, a warning, or glad tidings.
If one sees them standing in a stately form, or if one prays behind them, or
follows them on the road, or eats something from their delicious food, or drinks
from their drink, or if one is anointed with their perfume, or learns something
from them, or acquires a particular knowledge from them in a dream, it
demonstrates his trueness, faith in God’s oneness, following His Messenger and
being faithful to his traditions. Otherwise, if one walks before them, or leads
them into a narrow lane, or stones them, or mocks them, or argues with them
in a dream, it means that he is an innovator and a heedless person. This could
also mean that he will be persecuted by his superiors, for a prophet in a dream
also represents a ruler or a king, and God’s prophets are in truth the guardians
of the souls, and they are kings in this world and in the hereafter. A prophet in
a dream also represents a religious scholar, because religious scholars are the
heirs of the prophets, upon all of them be peace. Religious scholars also know
God’s prophets better than the common people. They understand their message
and follow their traditions of glorifying God’s Oneness, devotion, piety, prayers,
charity, acting upon what they know and admonishing others to follow the path
of truth and righteousness. A prophet in a dream also represents one’s superior,
a preacher, a righteous Imam, a conscientious teacher and a caller to God
Almighty. Seeing any of God’s prophets looking gracious, stately and courtly in
a dream also represents his people’s devotion, or that a major and a positive
change will take place among his followers. If such a prophet looks spurious,
unhappy in a dream, or if he appears in a state that does not befit God’s prophets,
it means that his followers in the world have deviated from his path and created
their own religion, opposing his commands, falsifying and interpreting his
message to their own liking and abusing his admonition. If one claims to be a
prophet in a dream, it means that he will become known in his field, or if he
qualifies, he may become a ruler, a judge, a teacher or a caller to God Almighty,
commanding what is good and forbidding what is evil. Otherwise, it means that
he will be inflicted with a great calamity because of a falsehood he fosters, or
innovations he practices. If one becomes a messenger in a dream or a caller to
God Almighty, and if someone hearkens to him and accepts his message in the
dream, it means that he will rise in rank. Otherwise, it means that he will
become a broker, a liar, a defrauder, a swagger, depending on his level of
knowledge, or it could mean that he will be struck with a major calamity in his
life. Such a calamity will be of the same caliber, degree and nature that a
messenger of God Almighty may have suffered from his own people. Seeing one
of God’s prophets in a dream also means living the experience of time, space and
condition in which he saw him in the dream. Wearing the cloak of one of God’s
prophets in a dream means attaining one’s goals, or presiding over people, or
acquiring true knowledge. Consequently, one will become renowned, revered
and his opinions will be respected by most people. If one becomes a prophet in
a dream, it means that he will die as a martyr, or become poor and be gifted with
patience and endurance. He will then be granted victory, and God willing, all
his needs will be satisfied. Emulating the devotion of a prophet in a dream
means trueness in one’s faith, compliance with God’s religion, certitude and
determination. Becoming one of God’s prophets, upon all of them be peace and
blessings, in a dream means commanding good and forbidding evil, suffering
from adversities and distress equal to those endured by such a prophet, then one
will escape from destruction or humiliation by God’s leave and through His
subtle kindness. If one sees a prophet suffering from poverty and asking for help
in a dream, it means that God Almighty will satisfy all the needs of the person
seeing such a dream for the sake of the blessings reserved for that prophet. If
one kills a prophet in a dream, it means that he will betray a trust, negate a
promise, or deny a covenant. Living in the time of one of God’s prophets on earth
in a dream means honor, dignity, success, piety and wealth if one is suited for
such gifts. Otherwise, it means that Satan is deceiving him. If a prophet of God
Almighty beats a righteous and a sincere believer in a dream, it means that he
will attain peace and salvation in his life in the hereafter. If a prophet talks to
someone in a dream, it means that he will receive blessings, honor, status,
knowledge, wisdom and fame in his life. (Also see Muhammad, upon whom be
peace.)

Station of Abraham
( Maqam Ibrahim, arb.) One who stands at the Station of
Abraham at the Sacred Mosque in Mecca and offers his prayers in a dream is
a pious person who observes the divine laws and who may be invited to perform
a pilgrimage. If a terrified person sees himself entering inside the Station of
Abraham in a dream, it means that all his fears will be dispelled and that he
will reach the abode of safety. Entering the station of God’s prophet Abraham,
upon whom be peace, in a dream also means receiving honors, seeking knowledge,
or receiving an inheritance from one’s father or mother.
Standing up or sitting at the Station of Abraham in a dream also may signify living by the divine laws
until one’s soul returns to its Lord. (Also see Abraham)

Zachariah
( Zachar; to remember + ya; God; The prophet Zachariah, upon whom
be peace.) If one sees the prophet Zachariah in a dream, it means that God
Almighty will restore fertility to him and to his wife at an advanced age. Seeing
God’s prophet Zachariah (uwbp) in a dream also means begetting a righteous
son who will grow to be a sire. (Also see Zikr)
Interpreted by Ibn Sirin
Bat
( zool .) By God’s leave, a bat was one of the many signs of God’s prophet Jesus
son of Marry, upon both of them be peace. In a dream, a bat may represent a
monk. It also means glad tidings for a pregnant woman. Seeing a bat in a dream
is not considered as a good omen for a traveller. If a bat flies into a house in a
dream, it means the demolition of that house or the separation of that family.
A bat in one’s dream also represents a witch, or an unjust person who may have
suffered from deprivation in his childhood. A bat in a dream also signifies
blindness, heedlessness, a child of adultery, or a bastard son. In a dream, a bat
also means hiding from people because of one’s evildoing, such as theft or
eavesdropping. Seeing a bat in a dream also means the end of enjoying blessings
and not acknowledging their true provider. A bat in one’s dream also means
having to change one’s living standards.

Pardon
(Absolution; Amnesty; Acquittal) If one forgives someone a sin, or a
mistake, or an error in a dream, it means that God Almighty will forgive him
his sins. It also means that he will live a long life, earn fame for his piety, live
in God’s protection, have a good heart and a forgiving nature. If one pardons a
criminal in a dream, it also means that he will receive God’s forgiveness in this
world and on the Day of Judgment. To forgive and pardon someone when one
has the power to do so in a dream represents one’s faith, piety and fear of
wrongdoing. If God Almighty, or if His Prophet (uwbp) pardon of forgive one’s
sins in a dream, it means that one will repent for his sin, receive guidance and
attain a praiseworthy conclusion to his life in this world and in the hereafter.

Giving
(Allot; Distribute; Gift; Offer) Giving something in a dream indicates the
value or worth of the giver. If one gives his workers or a needy person little
money when they merit more, it denotes his disobedience to the commands of
God Almighty, or straying away from the prophetic traditions. If one is denied
what he is asking for in a dream, it means failure in his religious practices,
suffering from the consequences of challenging others and arguing about
religious laws, or it could represent one’s perilous pursuit of heedless thoughts.
If a sick person sees himself paying his debts in a dream, it means his death or
the spoiling of his wealth. If he is healthy, then it denotes a case of mental
derangement, anger, lack of self-control or raising one’s voice unnecessarily. If
a poor person sees himself paying someone’s debt in a dream, it means that he
will receive benefits. Receiving monetary compensation by a court order in a
dream denotes lawful earnings.

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)

Soldiers
(Angels; Travel) Soldiers in a dream represent God’s arc angels and the
soldiers of mercy, while mercenaries in a dream represent the soldiers of
punishment. If one sees himself as a soldier eating his meal inside the chambers
of a king in a dream, it means that he will control a land without much efforts
on his part. If one’s name is listed as a soldier in a dream, it represents his
welfare, satisfaction, or that he will continue his education. If a bedridden
person sees himself as a soldier in a camp, or that he is discharged from the army
in a dream, it means that his illness will end in his death, or it may mean
difficulties, distress and losses. A gathering of soldiers in a dream means
destruction of the wrongdoers and victory of the righteous ones. A soldier
carrying a scourge or arrows in a dream also represents good conduct. A count
of one hundred soldiers in a dream represents the chastisement and calamity
which God Almighty inflicts upon the people of the earth because of their sins
at the conclusion of each century, or at the beginning of a new one. Seeing one
thousand soldiers in a dream represents the blessed Night of Power which
occurs near the end of the fasting month of Ramadan. If soldiers are led by a
prophet, a king, a wise man, or a man of knowledge in one’s dream, it means
victory for the believers. If one sees an army entering a town in a dream, they
could represent rain. (Also see Night of Power)

Oryx
(Antelope; Gemsbok; Wild cow; Wild gazelle; Wild goat) In a dream, all kinds
of genus oryx of the wild large African and Asian antelopes with long and straight
horns represent a great leader, a pious and a reclusive person though he does not
follow the prophetic traditions, or he could be an ascetic, or an innovator. If one
finds the eyeball of an oryx in a dream, it means that he will marry a chaste and
a beautiful woman whose life will be short. If one’s head becomes that of an oryx
in a dream, it means prosperity, or that he will receive an appointment to a
leadership position. (Also see Buffalo; Mountain goat)

Masjid
(arb. God’s House; Mosque; Place of worship) In Arabic, the word masjid
means a place of prostration, while the word Jami means a place of gathering.
A masjid or a mosque in a dream represents a scholar and its gates represent
men of knowledge and the guardians, or the attendants of God’s House. Building
a masjid in a dream means emulating the traditions of God’s Prophet, upon
whom be peace, fostering the unity of one’s family, or becoming a judge, should
one qualify for such an office. A masjid filled with people in a dream represents
a gnostic, a man of knowledge and wisdom, or a preacher who invites people
to his house, advises them, brings their hearts together, teaches them the
precepts of their religion and explains the wisdom behind the divine revelations.
Seeing a masjid being demolished in a dream means that such a gnostic, or
religious scholar and devout believer will die in that locality. In a dream, if the
roof of a masjid caves in, it means that one will indulge in an abominable action.
If one sees a stranger performing his prayers in a masjid in a dream, it means
that the Imam of that masjid will dies from a terminal illness. If one enters a
masjid in the company of a group of people, and if they dig a small hole for him
inside the masjid in the dream, it means that he will get married. If one’s house
becomes a masjid in a dream, it means that he will attain piety, purity of heart,
escetic detachment and an honor he will receive from his brethren. He will also
call upon them to follow what is true and to abstain from what is false. If a masjid
is transformed into a bathhouse in a dream, it means that a chaste person will
turn corrupt or become heedless. A masjid in a dream also represents a
marketplace or a business. If one has to climb up a staircase to reach the masjid
in a dream, then the masjid represents a thrifty person who does not like to
share what he has. If one has to climb down a staircase to reach the masjid in
a dream, it means that his needs will be satisfied. If a masjid in the city is moved
to a remote village in a dream, it means stagnation of one’s business, being
ostracized from one’s community, or it could mean legal complications related
to one’s inheritance. If a ruler builds a house for God Almighty or a masjid in
a dream, it means that he will be a just ruler and he will govern his subject by
the divine laws. If a religious scholar builds a masjid in a dream, it means that
he will author a book that will benefit others, or delivers a commentary on a
complex religious issue, or if he is wealthy, it means that he will pay the alms
tax due on his assets. Building a masjid in a dream also means getting married,
or conceiving a child who will grow to become a righteous and a knowledgeable
scholar, or if one is poor, it means that he will become rich. Otherwise, it means
that one will serve God’s House and fill it with invocations, supplications,
serving the interest of the community, leading the people to unity and love, and
teaching them to value obedience to God’s commands. Building a masjid in a
dream also could mean becoming a real estate agent, or repenting from one’s
sins, or receiving guidance on God’s path, or to die as a martyr, hence, what one
builds for God Almighty in a dream, represents his house in paradise. Such
interpretation applies if one builds a masjid following the proper procedures
and with lawfully earned money, and using proper materials. Otherwise,
building it with what is unlawful of money or materials in the dream, or
changing the direction of the prayer niche, etcetera, then one’s dream will carry
the opposite meaning. If one builds a masjid or a fellowship house in a dream,
it means that he will seek the path of knowledge and wisdom, or that he will
attend a pilgrimage during that same year, or establish a permanent business,
such as a hotel, a bathhouse or a shop, etcetera. Building the roof of a masjid
in a dream means taking care of orphans, or sponsoring homeless children.
Expanding a masjid in a dream means increase in one’s good deeds, repentance
from a sin, adopting good conduct, or being just. Seeing oneself inside a new
masjid one does not recognize in a dream means attending the pilgrimage to
God’s House in Mecca during that same year, or joining religious circles to learn
about one’s religion. If one’s shop becomes a masjid, or if the masjid becomes a
shop in the dream, it denotes lawful earnings, or it could mean mixing lawful
and unlawful earnings. A forsaken masjid or mosque in a dream means
intentionally ignoring the value of gnostics and religious scholars, or denying
the necessity to command what is good and to eschew what is evil. A forsaken
masjid in a dream also denotes the presence of ascetics who have renounced the
world and its people and care less about their material possessions. A known
mosque in a dream represents the city where it is erected. For instance, the Aqsa
mosque in a dream represents Jerusalem, the Sacred mosque represents Mecca,
the Prophet’s Mosque (uwbp) represents Medina, the Omayyad mosque represents
Damascus, Al-Azhar mosque represents Cairo and the Blue mosque represents
Istanbul, etcetera. A known mosque in a dream also could represent the
renowned scholars who live in that place, or the ruler of that country, or any
of his ministers. If one enters a mosque and immediately after crossing the
entrance gate, he prostrates himself to God Almighty in the dream, it means
that he will be given the opportunity to repent for his sins. If one comes to a
masjid and finds its doors locked, then if someone opens the door to him in a
dream, it means that he will help someone in paying his debt, then extol his good
virtues in public. If one enters a mosque riding on an animal in a dream, it means
that he will cut off his connection with his relatives, leave them behind and
forbid them to follow him. If one dies in a masjid in a dream, it means that he
will die as a true penitent. If the carpet or the straw mat of a mosque becomes
a shredded rag in the dream, it means that the community of that masjid is
divided and corrupt. Building a masjid in a dream also means overcoming one’s
enemy. Entering the Sacred Mosque in Mecca in a dream means arriving with
one’s bride to their new home and it could mean fulfillment of a promise, being
truthful, dispelling one’s fear and reaching the shore of safety. (Also see Minaret;
Minbar; Mosque)

attending the pilgrimage in Mecca.

Star
(Astral; Celestial spheres; Constellation; Dog star; Moon; Procyon; Sirius;
Stars) In a dream, a star represents the best and the most noble of people. Seeing
the stars scintillating with lights and gathered inside one’s house in a dream
means that great people, or some of the leaders of the country will meet at that
house. If the stars are gathered in one’s house, and if their light is dimmed in
the dream, it means that such people will secretly meet in that house under
constraint, or because of a calamity. Holding a star in one’s hand in a dream
means begetting a noble son who will grow to be a great leader. Stealing a star
in a dream means stealing a valuable thing. Seeing a star falling from the skies
in a dream means that a calamity will befall that place and it will particularly
affect the life of a great and noble person, or it could mean the death of the
governor of that town. In general, stars in a dream represent political leaders,
the most knowledgeable of scholars, the most noble of people in the society and
the richest of the rich. Seeing many stars inside one’s house in a dream also may
signify having a large family. Seeing the seven major stars, or the fixed stars
of the solar system in a dream represents the trades, businesses, knowledge and
the leadership in the land. Each of such stars brings a different luck.
Seeing a brilliant star in a dream means happiness and leadership.
If a rich person sees the skies without stars in a dream, it means loss of his wealth.
If a poor person sees the skies without stars in a dream, it means his death. Holding little stars
in one’s hand in a dream means acquiring fame and presiding over people.
Seeing a star over one’s head in a dream means becoming renowned and
surpassing one’s associates, or it could mean serving in a high ranking position.
If one sees brilliant stars gathering in one place in his dream, it means that he
will reap benefits from a business trip, or safely return home from such a
successful business trip. Riding a star in a dream means leadership, strength
and wealth. If one sees the stars fixed under his roof in a dream, it means a
calamity, or destruction of one’s house, or it could mean the death of the head
of the household. Eating stars in a dream means swindling people of their
money. Swallowing a star in a dream means mixing with noble people and
sharing one’s personal life with them, or it could mean insulting or slandering
the companions of God’s Prophet upon whom be peace. Sucking on a star in a
dream means learning at the hands of great scholars or a wise shaikh. If a
fortuneteller or an astrologer sees himself eating stars in a dream, it means that
he will be selected to fill an important job from which he will prosper. As for the
majority of people, eating stars in a dream means death. Seeing the stars
scattered in a dream means the death of great leaders or scholars, or it could
mean a war. Seeing the stars falling down on earth then disappearing, or the
lights of meteors entering the earth atmosphere in a dream, represents a great
destruction and death. The falling of small stars in a dream signifies the death
of unknown people and the meek ones, while the falling of large stars represent
the death of renowned people. Seeing the stars falling from the skies also could
mean becomingbald or losing one’s hair. Whereby, the stars represent one’s hair
and the skies represent one’s head. Seeing the stars during the daylight time
in a dream means scandals, notoriety, or major events and calamities. Seeing
the morning stars in a dream means a wedding. Becoming a star in a dream
means acquiring wealth and fame. Seeing stars that denote the coming of winter
in a dream means distress and sorrow, while seeing the stars that denote the
coming of summer in a dream mean happiness and good living. (Also see Ce¬
lestial spheres; Ship)

Scepter
(Authority; Mace) A scepter in a dream means good conduct, emulating
the leading example of the Prophet Muhammad, upon whom be peace, rising to
a high ranking position, or becoming an authority. A scepter in a dream also
could represent a wild son, a crooked man, or a hypocrite. Playing with a scepter
in dream means using the help of such a person and assisting him to lay hands
on his rivals. The crosier represents the human heart and the staff represents
man’s tongue. Thus, playing with a scepter in a dream means playing at will.
Whatever may affect a scepter in a dream can be interpreted as affecting one’s
son or his tongue. If one sees himself hitting a small ball with a septer, or playing
with a ball in his dream, it represents a dispute with his wife, or a fight with
a hypocritical person. A scepter in a dream also indicates the presence of jinn
spirits, wars, devastations, or it could represent past benefits. Hitting someone
with a scepter in dream means getting what one desires from him, but through
crooked ways. If one sees his governor or his boss carrying a scepter in dream,
it means that he will be appointed to head an important project.

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
in a dream also may represent the Book of revelations, the Quran, knowledge,
wisdom, or paradise. If one sees himself walking from the midst of meadows
into a salt swampland or a marsh in a dream, it means that he follows
innovations, or that he indulges in sinful actions. Hearing the call to prayers
from inside a meadow in a dream means a good deed, guidance after heedlessness,
repentance, attending the congregational prayers, or following a funeral proces¬
sion.

Tablet
(Blackboard; Preserved Tablet; Records; Scrolls) Seeing the heavenly
Preserved Tablet in a dream means unveiling one’s actions and thoughts, glad
tidings for someone suffering from adversities, recovering from an illness for an
ailing person, or falling into sin for people whose indulgence in abominable
action is a common way of life. As for godly and righteous people, seeing the
Preserved Tablet in a dream means guidance relating to what God Almighty
has written of commands and prohibitions. As for niggardly people, seeing the
Preserved Tablet in a dream means acquaintance with one’s written shares and
certainty about one’s limitations and his life in this world. Seeing it also means
preserving knowledge, cataloging references, or saving money for one’s family
and heirs. It also represents a guardian for one’s properties, treasurer, the
keeper of one’s secrets, or a controller. Seeing the Preserved Tablet in a dream
also could denote enjoying peace after experiencing fear. If a ruler sees the
Preserved Tablet in a dream, it means that his sovereignty will expand, or it
could mean that he will discover a great treasure. As for the tablets that were
revealed to God’s prophet Moses, upon whom be peace, seeing them in a dream represents witnesses,
spiritual guides, guidance or admonition. A wooden blackboard in a dream represents one’s wife,
child, farmland, or finding peace after suffering from fear,
or it could mean knowledge if one is a seeker of such avenues. In general,
all boards in a dream represent admonition or prohibition
of sin. Receiving a writing tablet from an Imam in a dream means an appointment
to leadership, knowledge, understanding, or becoming an Imam, except if what
is written on the blackboard in the dream implies admonition to do good, then
the tablet means guidance and mercy. If the blackboard is made of iron in the
dream, it means that one will beget a son who will become a great scholar and
a strongman. A polished board in a dream means that one’s son will become a
man of courage who accomplishes what he intends, acquires what he wants, and
who will rarely be defeated. If the blackboard is corroded in the dream, it means
that one’s son will have no dynasty. If the blackboard is made of stone in the
dream, it means that his heart will be like a rock. If the blackboard is made of
copper in the dream, it means that one’s son will grow to be a hypocrite. If it is
made of lead in the dream, it means that one’s son will be an effeminate person.
A tablet in a dream also denotes a woman and the writing on it represent her
children, or it could represent an intelligent and a good natured boy who accepts
what he learns from his teacher. Receiving a blackboard from someone in
authority in a dream means gaining power. If a pregnant woman sees a
blackboard in a dream, it means that she will beget a son.

temptation. Censure in a dream also signifies love and compassion. If one
rebukes himself in a dream, it means that he had indulged in a wrongdoing
which he regrets and that he is blaming himself for it. (Also see Blame)

Shirt
(Blouse) One’s shirt in a dream represents his piety, godliness, livelihood,
knowledge, or it could mean glad tidings. Putting on a new shirt in a dream
means marriage to a woman who has no relatives or kin. If a woman puts on a
shirt or a blouse in a dream, it also means her marriage. A torn shirt in a dream
means divorce. If one’s shirt is torn in a dream, it means breaking up a business
partnership. A shirt in a dream also represents one’s religious and worldly
concerns. Wearing a shirt without sleeves in a dream means having piety but
no money, for sleeves in a dream represent money. If the pocket of one’s shirt
is torn in the dream, it means poverty. Having a wardrobe filled with shirts in
a dream represent one’s reward in the hereafter. Wearing a white shirt in a
dream means piety and religious assiduousness. Receiving a shirt as a gift in
a dream means blessings and profits. Wearing a dirty and a torn shirt in a dream
means poverty, distress and afflictions. If a woman sees herself wearing a new,
large and comfortable blouse in a dream, it denotes her piety, religiousness,
happiness and the enjoyment of a rich life in this world. The same could reflect
the state of her husband. Wearing a green or a white shirt in a dream denotes
piety. Wearing a blue shirt in a dream may not be praiseworthy. Wearing a red
shirt in a dream means fame, while a yellow shirt in a dream means an illness.
A wet shirt in a dream means obstacles in one’s travels. If one’s wet shirt dries
in the dream, it means that his hurdles have been removed. Wearing a shirt
without a collar, a pocket, buttons, or button holes in a dream means wearing
one’s shroud at the time of his preparation for burial. Wearing a shirt with
stripes in a dream means travels, or it could mean performing a pilgrimage.
Wearing a shirt that does not properly cover one’s body in the dream means
falling short in performing one’s religious duties. Wearing a black shirt in a
dream means sorrow, distress and worries. Wearing one’s shirt inside-out in a
dream means reversal of one’s condition, or having a loathsome and a forbidden
type of sexual relationship with one’s wife from the anus. A shirt in a dream also
represents one’s house or shelter. If one’s shirt is torn in half vertically in a
dream, it means relief from anxiety or depression. If one’s shirt is torn from the
back in a dream, it means that one will suffer from defamation, or be falsely
accused of sexually harassing or abusing a woman. If one’s shirt is torn from the
front in the dream, then it becomes a proof of his guilt. Seeing the shirt of the
Prophet Joseph (uwbp) in a dream means that an emissary of good intent will
bring glad tidings, and for someone who is suffering from eye problems, it means
that he will recover his sight.

Slave
(Bondman; Servant; Submission) If a free man sees himself as a slave, and
if he recognizes the person who enslaved him in the dream, it means that he will
serve such a person, or perhaps he may blackmail him. Becoming a slave in a
dream also means excessive borrowing of money until one becomes a slave to his
lenders, or that the compounded interest of his loans weigh heavy on his family,
or it could mean reorganization of one’s business, or that he may work for his
lender to repay his debts, or it could mean that he may develop heart problems,
or any debilitating illness. If one is sold as a slave in a dream, it means that he
will regain honor and dignity, or perhaps fall in a trap, for selling a free person
in a dream means humiliating him. Selling a human being in a dream also
connotes a good end, such as that in the story of God’s prophet Joseph, upon
whom be peace. If a bondman sees himself free in a dream, it means that he will
experience ease after he was subjugated to difficulties and hardships, or it could
mean paying his debts, recovering from an illness, attaining one’s goals, or
perhaps he may become a true servant of God Almighty, who commands good
and forbids evil, establishes regular prayers, pays his charities and fears
wrongdoing. Being a slave in a dream also means distress. Being sold in a dream
also means worries, unless if the buyer is a woman, then it means that he will
be honored and well treated. His value and comfort then will depend on the price
he is sold for in the dream. If an unmarried woman is sold as a slave in a dream,
it means that she will marry the one who bought her. If a man sells his wife in
a dream, it means that he will divorce her. If one is captured and turned into
a slave by his enemy in a dream, it means that he will learn something about
humiliation and submissiveness.

Knowledge
(Bread; Learning; Wall) To see oneself acquiring knowledge in a
dream means marriage and rising in status. Such a wedding will be announced
publicly. If one earns a title of recognition, or if he becomes renowned, or if he
is awarded a great prize for his work in a dream, it means glad tidings of a
beautiful son he will beget and who will follow his father’s footsteps, learn his
trade, or work at spreading his father’s knowledge or traditions, or he may
govern or lead after him. To learn about God Almighty, or about the prophetic
traditions of His Messenger, upon whom be peace, in a dream means being
encompassed with God’s mercy and subtle kindness. To learn about sorcery,
black magic or similar arts in a dream mean following innovation and walking
the path of heedlessness. (Also see Learning)

Grapes
(Bunch of grapes) In a dream, a sweet tasting bunch of grapes means
receiving benefits through a relative or a close friend. If the grapes taste sour
in the dream, then they mean regret. Grapes in a dream also represent money,
profits, earnings, a growing capital, savings or a needed capital to support a
business venture. Seeing grapes in season in a dream means material gains, and
out of season, they mean quick profits or unlawful earnings. Picking a bunch of
grapes in a dream means receiving money from a woman. Black grapes in a
dream represent the night and white grapes represent the daylight. Black
grapes in a dream has little benefit in wakefulness and may represent money
that does not last. White grapes in a dream represent recovering from an illness,
for the prophet Noah (uwbp) was once inflicted with tuberculosis and God
Almighty inspired him in a dream to eat white grapes and by God’s leave they
brought about his recovery. Grapes hanging on a grapevine in a dream denote
fear. Extracting the seeds and throwing away the pulp in a dream means an
argument with one’s wife that will end in regret. Seeing grapes in season in a
dream could mean distress and out of season they mean a sickness. Seeing
grapes in season in a dream also could mean success associated with women,

Vice-regent
(Calif; Caliphate; Deputy; Human being; Minister; Ruler; Secretary
of state; Vizier) In a dream, a vice-regent represents someone whom people seek
for his knowledge, or to learn the mastery of his craft, or he could represent an
appointed justice of the peace. He also represents someone who inherits good
and bad qualities, or whose character is different privately from the way he
portrays himself in public. If one sees the vice-regent of the land in a stately
appearance, or if he sees himself in such a form in a dream, it denotes his good
state in this world and his success in the hereafter. Seeing him wearing an
unsuitable garment in a dream reflects one’s own state, or it may mean that his
current religious state is weak, though it may become better at a latter stage
of his life. A vice-regent or a calif in a dream also represents someone who
establishes the laws of his religion and follows the example of God’s Prophet,
upon whom be peace. Whatever he is wearing in the dream connotes one’s own
state, or the growing or diminishing of his devotion. If one who is promised
something sees the vice-regent or the calif in his dream, it means that his
promise will be fulfilled, and his wishes will come true. Seeing him in a dream
also means that someone from a different circle is backbiting him, or speaking
of him without his consent, or that people are reporting him to the authorities,
or that scholars are discussing him, or mentioning his work. A vice-regent or a
calif in a dream also represents aloofness, seclusion, truthfulness, volunteering
one’s services, commanding what is good and forbidding what is evil, developing
one’s own certitude and faith, repentance, abstaining from sinful actions,
imprisonment, sickness, or travels. If one sees himself being awarded the seat
of the vice-regent or calif in a dream, though he does not suit the position, it
means that adversities and temptations will befall the land, though the people
of knowledge and the righteous ones will escape such danger. It could also mean
that he will suffer humiliation, and that the people whom he manages may rise
to preside over him.

Perhaps it could mean that one will befriend a noble person, or meet a good
companion on the road. Owning a mare in a dream means begetting a beautiful
son. If it is a nag or a workhorse in the dream, it means that he will live satisfied,
or that he may marry a rich and a noble woman who will bear his children.
Seeing a horse in a dream also may connote owning a good house. If it is a blond

in a dream represents a gathering of women for a funeral or a wedding. Owning

people, or it could mean managing a business. If a horse dies in one’s presence
in a dream, it means loss of his house or business. The fit of a horse in the dream
represent man’s own state. Descending from a horse in a dream means committing
a sin that will force one to resign from his position, or be dismissed from his work.
A hairy horse in a dream represents a large family. If the tail of one’s horse is
cut off at its end in a dream, it means that one may come to see the death of his
children and clan before his own eyes. If the tail of one’s horse is simply clipped
in the dream, it connotes his own death and that his name will be quickly
forgotten. If one is attacked by a horse in a dream, it means that a noble person,
or a young boy will stand to him and require a just retribution from him. A flying
horse with two wings in a dream means that one may be tried with affections
toward a perverted boy or a woman who will tempt him then follow him. If a
descendent of the family of God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace, sees himself
flying on a winged horse in a dream, it means that he will rise in station and
preside over people. If one sees horsemen coming through the skies in a dream,
it means that a war may take place in that land. Riding a horse and holding a
spear in one’s hand in a dream means forcing people to do something, or forcing
them to pay what they owe. If one sees his horse drowning in a dream, it means
that he may die from an illness. Buying a horse and tending the money to the
seller in the dream means profits in one’s business, or earning money from
teaching. Selling one’s horse in a dream means doing good and being grateful
for it. If one’s horse bites him in a dream, it means that he will lead an army
in a war. If one kills a horse in his dream, it means that he will be awarded
status, rank and money. Slaughtering a horse for other than food in a dream
means spoiling one’s livelihood. If one sees a horse whose owner is not known
entering a town in a dream, it means that a noble person will enter that town
and people of his trade will fear his competition or his becoming a danger to their
business. If such a horse reverts his course and leaves that town in the dream,
it means that a great, though unknown person from that locality will die shortly.
Horses running across the streets in a dream represent a destructive rain or
devastating floods. A feeble horse in a dream represents the weakness of his
owner. (Also see Dung; Horse fright; Nag)

Dye
(Color; Expose; Hair; Henna; Hide; Gray hair) Applying henna or a dye to
one’s hair or hands in a dream represents a pharmacist, celebrations, glad
tidings, tenderness, or it could mean compassion. Dyeing one’s hair in a dream
also means veiling or protecting one’s personal life and that of others. To dye
the gray hair of one’s beard in a dream means ostentatiousness and adorning
one’s merchandise or deeds to make them look better than reality. Dyeing one’s
hair in a dream also connotes a display of blessings and favors, or it could mean
dictating one’s conditions to his enemy, if the person is in such position.
However, if not, it means difficulties, aggravation, distress, debts or dropping
off one’s ties with those who love him. Interpreting woman’s dyeing of her hair
in a dream is the same as that of a man. To dye one’s gray hair in a dream means
strength, dignity and valor. Applying henna dye to one’s head and not to one’s
beard in a dream means emulating the traditions of God’s Prophet, upon whom
be peace. To dye both the head and the beard in a dream means concealing one’s
poverty, though one will keep asking people to pay him respect or to recognize
him in their circles. If one’s hair accepts the dye in the dream, it means regaining
one’s status, though with less emphasis on his pride, or it could mean that he
will make contentment his new ornament or trim. If one uses a dye other than
what is commonly used, and if it works in the dream, it means that he will be
saved from an adverse condition through miraculous events. If the new dye does
not work in the dream, it means that his true nature will be exposed and he will
have no solutions to protect himself from defamation or public abuse. If he tries
to dyes his hair with dry henna clay, and if his hair still accepts it in the dream,
it means that he is an ignorant person, though he will ultimately repent for his
sins, amend his actions and improve himself. If a woman sees her hands dyed
with gold in a dream, it means that she will give all her wealth to her husband
and that she will be satisfied to see him happy, though in reality she too will gain
power and status in her family. If a man sees his feet dyed and tattooed in a
dream, it means that he will be struck with family problems. A dyed hand in a
dream means hardship in making ends meet. If one dips his hand into a laying
corpse in a dream, it means that he will witness a conspiracy. If one sees his
hands dyed in a dream, it also means that he has reached the end of the rope
with his money or business. If one sees his dyed hands wrapped or bandaged in
a dream, it means that he will lose a trial or a fight with his rivals, or that he
will fail to meet such a challenge again. Dyeing only the finger with henna in
a dream represents branches of dates or clusters of grapes. In general, dyeing
one’s hands with henna or one’s hair with regular dye as a makeup in a dream
represents joy for the husband and wife as long as they do not exceed the norms.
Dyeing one’s hands and feet in a dream means redecorating one’s house. If a poor
person sees himself dyeing his hands or hair in a dream, it means that he will
cover up the loss of his ablution during prayers or during his reading of the Holy
Quran or during other ritual occasions where he is required to have ablution
before proceeding. It could also mean that he cares little about attending his
prayers. As for women, dyeing means happiness, new clothing, receiving gold,
or a wedding celebration. If the dye exceeds the required surface of the hands
or the feet in the dream, it means being struck with fear and worries caused by
one’s business or friends. If a man sees himself in a dream dyeing his hair or
beard with other than henna, it means that he will suffer from what he fears
most. Dyeing or suppressing one’s feelings for a sick person means recovering
from his ailment. Dyeing one’s hair black in a dream means hiding one’s bad
conditions, spoiling the benefits of one’s deeds, or hiding one’s evil intentions.
This is taken from the practice of Egypt’s Pharaoh who sometimes dyed his hair
black, thus trying to hide his appearance and ignorance.

Righteous people
(Companions of God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace; Follow¬
ers; Successors) Seeing God’s blessed people and His righteous ones, or any of
the early companions of God’s Messenger (uwbp), whether such a companion is
known or not in a dream represents blessings in one’s life and denotes one’s
correct following of their example, and their advice or comments in one’s dream
must be heeded. To see oneself as one of such true ones, or to enter their circles
in a dream means that one is following their example and enjoying or suffering
similar trials to theirs, then he will triumph over his enemies. To see one of the
companions living in a city in a dream also represents the joy, happiness,
prosperity, and justice the inhabitants of such a city enjoy under the leadership
of a righteous governor. (Also see Companions of the Prophet; Scholars; Serving;
Shepherd)

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.

Pledge of allegiance
(Contract; Homage) Making a pledge of allegiance to the

Turban
(Crown; Headgear; Tiara) In a dream, one’s turban represents his family
tree, his paternal uncle, or his paternal aunt. In a dream, one’s turban also
represents his crown, strength, integrity, state, or wife. If one’s turban is taken
away from him in a dream, it means that he may lose his job, divorce his wife,
or lose his wealth. The same interpretation is given for one who sees himself
wearing a golden turban in a dream. If a prophet of God Almighty, or a ruler
crowns someone with a turban in a dream, it means that he will receive an
important appointment, or that he may marry a pious woman. Putting on a
turban in a dream means increase in one’s strength, expansion of one’s control,
growth in one’s business, or it could mean becoming wealthy. If the turban is
made of wool in the dream, it means a spiritual appointment, and if it is made
of silk in the dream, then it means living a corrupt state of mind, or earning
unlawful money. Wearing a second turban on top of the first one in a dream
means increase in one’s power. Fixing a turban for oneself in a dream means
taking a journey. A yellow turban means sickness. A black turban means
happiness and unity. Wearing a turban in a dream also could mean that one may
lose his sight. If a bewildered person sees himself wearing a turban in a dream,
it means that his fears will dissipate. (Also see Crown; Headgear)

Hole
(Deception; Plot; Profits; Fall) Digging a hole, a water well, or an irrigation
and planning to water the plants with them in a dream means attending one’s
needs and serving the interests of his family. Eating from the dirt one piles from
digging in his dream represents a swagger, or someone who acquires money
through deception. Seeing oneself inside a hole in a dream also means divorce.
To see oneself outside of such a hole looking at it in a dream means having an
argument with one’s spouse that will end in reconciliation. If a sick person or
a prisoner sees himself coming out of a hole in a dream, it means that he will
become free from his trials. Falling into a hole and crying for help to no avail
in a dream means taking a short trip. A hole in a dream also represents a poor
woman who strives to cover others pitfalls, though she cannot veil her own.
Hiding inside a hole in a dream also means appeasement of one’s fears, or ending
of one’s adversities. If while hiding, one finds food, or fresh water, or a cloth to
cover himself in the dream, it means profiting from sources one does not
anticipate, or making peace with an opponent. To put a hole in one’s shoe in a
dream means facing trouble and adversities. (Also see Den; Mouse hole; Tunnel)
Holy Book: (Quran; The Last Revelation) In a dream, the Holy Book, or the Quran
represents a king or a judge who deals with Islamic jurisprudence. If a king, a
ruler, or a judge sees that the Holy Book does no longer exist, or if he sees it
burning, or if its contents are washed away in a dream, it means his death. If
one sees a ruler or a governor handwriting a copy of the Holy Book in a dream,
it means that he is a just person who uses the divine laws in making his decision.
If a judge sees himself handwritings copy of the Holy Book in a dream, it means
that he does not share his knowledge, and that he is audacious about his rank
and status. If a religious scholar or a theologian sees himself writing a copy of
Holy Book in a dream, it means that he will profit from a business deal. If one
sees a king, or a ruler swallowing the Holy Book in a dream, it means that he
may die soon. If a judge swallows the Holy Book in a dream, it means that he
accepts bribes. If a ruler sees himself erasing what is written in the Holy Book
in a dream, it means that he will be exiled. If a judge erases what is written in
the Holy Book in a dream, it also means his death. If he erases it by licking it
with his own tongue in a dream, it means that he will commit an awful sin. If
a witness erases it in a dream, it means that he will deny his own testimony.
Carrying the Holy Book, or buying a copy of the Quran in a dream means living
by its criterion. Reading from the Holy Book before God’s Prophet, upon whom
be peace, in a dream means that one will commit himself to memorizing it.
Eating the pages of the Holy Book in a dream means accepting bribes. If a
layman eats the pages of the Holy Book, or few lines from some pages in a dream,
it means that he earns his livelihood from reciting the Holy Quran or teaching
it. Eating the pages of the Holy Book in a dream also means earning one’s
livelihood from copying and selling it. Seeing the Holy Book in a dream also
mans growing in wisdom. Handwriting copies of the Holy Book in a dream
denotes one’s piety, or it could represent a religious scholar who lives by the
book, act by its commands and shares his knowledge with others. Tearing off the
pages of the Holy Book in a dream means ingratitude toward God’s revelations,
or denying God’s favors, or questioning some of them. If one does something to
the Holy Book in his dream that he would abhor to do in wakefulness, it means
that he has lost his religious devotion and faith. Carrying a copy of the Holy Book
in a dream means attaining power and acquiring knowledge. The Holy Book in
a dream also represents a husband, a wife, a son, or wealth. If a sick person sees
it in his dream, it means that he will recover from his illness. If the one who sees
it in his dream is facing an enemy, it means that he will triumph over him. If
he is a sinner, it means that he will repent of his sins and turn to his Lord, or
it could mean that he may receive an inheritance. If one sees himself following
innovations and he recognizes that in his sleep, his dream denotes a warning
from God Almighty. Seeing the Holy Book in a dream also could mean seeing
wonders, witnessing a miracle, hearing news, receiving happy news, or it could
mean longevity for one who browse through it from cover to cover in his dream.
The Holy Book in a dream also represents gardens, heavens, places of worship,
or a person one is commanded to obey, such as a ruler, or a father, a mother, one’s
teacher, or shaikh, or it could mean making a true oath, receiving glad tidings,
admonition or a warning. Seeing the Holy Book or any of the early divine
revelations in a dream means that one may preside over people. If one sees
himself carrying the Holy Book, or even any book of revelations, and if when he
opens it finds the pages blank with no writing inside it in the dream, it means
that he portrays himself to be what he is not, or that he impersonates a scholar,
or pretends to be religious. Kissing the Holy Book in a dream means revering
what it contains and adhering to what it commands. If one looks into the pages
of the Holy Book and finds its lines crooked in a dream, it means that he lives
satisfied with what he has, and fulfills his required duties accordingly. Stealing
a copy of the Holy Book and hiding it in a dream means that one cheats in
performing his own prayers, or fails to do them properly. If one sees himself
looking in the Holy Book, then writing from what he is reading on his own
garment in the dream, it means that he interprets the Quranic revelation
according to his own liking. If one sees a Holy Book sitting in his lap, then if a
chick comes and picks all the words written therein in a dream, it means that
one will beget a child who will memorize and read the Holy Quran as an
inheritance, and benefit from the piety of his father, and as a trust, a lawful
earning and a source of strength in his life. Buying a copy of the Holy Book in
dream means benefits, prosperity and becoming a renowned and a distinguished
religious scholar. If the Holy Book is snatched away from someone’s hands in
a dream, it means that he will lose his knowledge, or perhaps lose his employment.
If one sees himself spreading the pages of the Holy Book on a flat surface in a
dream, it means that he is seeking wisdom which he will get, or that he may
receive an inheritance. If one sees himself putting the Holy Book over his
shoulders in a dream, it means that he will receive an appointment, or be
entrusted with a duty to guard, or that he will memorize the Holy Quran. If one
finds himself trying to eat the pages of the Holy Book in a dream, it means that
he is a regular reader of the Quran. If one sees himself trying to eat the pages
of the holy Book but is unable to do so in a dream, it means that he tries to
memorize the Holy Quran from time to time but keeps forgetting what he
learns. (Also see Quran)

and winning victory over one’s enemy. In this case, one’s enemy is hunger. The
food placed on the table represents a booty. Clearing the dinner table in a dream
means cessation of comfort and blessings. The dinning table of one’s house in
a dream represents his livelihood and sustenance, an important project that
requires the help of many people, or a great person who is gracious, true and
generous. Sitting on such a table in a dream means joining the company of such
great man. If the dining table is topped with clean food and fresh bread in the
dream, it means love between friends and brethren. To have little food and
some bread on the table in a dream means lack of such love between brethren.
Accepting the invitation to share a loaf of bread with someone in a dream means
love, unity and prescribing to the prophetic traditions. If one sees one or two
dishes on his table in a dream, it means profits for oneself and sustenance for
his dependents. Having good appetite in a dream means longevity. If the dining
table is cleared after one’s meal in the dream, it denotes the conclusion of one’s
life. If a crowd of people sits on a table to partake their meal in a dream, they
represent one’s dependent. If two opponents sit on the same table in a dream,
it means war, and particularly if their is broiled meat and herbs on the table.
The dining table in the dream then represents the battlefield, and eating their
meal means fighting. A dining table in a dream also represents piety. If one
shares his meal in a dream, it means that he will meet new friends and enjoy
their company, then a conflict will rise concerning his livelihood and earnings.

Clothing
(Dwellings; Face; Look; State; Transient) One’s garment in a dream
represents his innermost thoughts that will eventually show in his attitude in
life. If one’s thoughts are good, then it will show, and if they are evil, they will
also manifest. If one wears a slipper over his head and a turban in his foot in
a dream, it means that he is carrying trouble. Depending on its type and name,
a garment in a dream could represent a man or a woman. Wearing a new
garment in a dream is better than seeing an old one. If a man sees himself
wearing a woman’s apparel in a dream, it means that he is a bachelor. If a woman
sees herself wearing a man’s garment in a dream, it means that she is
unmarried. Wearing a tightly buttoned shirt in a dream means experiencing
tight circumstances or reuniting with a traveller returning home, or it could
mean marriage for an unwed person. Wearing a stately apparel in a dream
means honor and dignity. Wearing a soldier’s uniform in a dream means war.
Wearing a scholar’s robe or a teacher’s vest in a dream means studying to become
a learned person. Wearing an ascetic’s woolen wrap in a dream means becoming
a renunciate. Wearing a salesman’s suit in a dream means hard work or looking
for work if the suit looks expensive in the dream, for people mostly wear
expensive looking suits when they are still searching for work. Wearing a white
garment in a dream means pride, honor and dignity. Wearing silk in a dream
means strength and occupying a high rank in a business or government. If one
sees a deceased person wearing a silken garment in a dream, it means that he

gold in a dream means victory over one’s enemy. A black garment means honor,
reign and having mastery over people. Wearing a green garment in a dream

a favor. Wearing a brocaded garment in a dream means receiving an important
and a revered message, rising in station, enjoying wealth or it could represent
the blessing of having a child. Wearing a robe that is trailing behind one’s feet
in a dream means rebellion and disobedience, while wearing a moderately short
coat in a dream means purity, virtues and chastity. Wearing any type of garment
in a dream means emulating the character of such people or becoming a prisoner
of war. Wearing a kufi or a headdress for prayers in a dream means atonement
for one’s sins. Wearing a jubbah or a long cloak in a dream means longevity.
Wearing an open sports jacket in a dream means ease in one’s life or financial
success. Wearing a special costume for a festival or a celebration in a dream
means prosperity and a wealth that is saved for one’s children, or it could mean
buying new merchandise for one’s shop. Wearing a military uniform in a dream
means distress, trouble or a scientific dispute. Wearing one’s traditional cos¬
tumes in a dream, or that of another community means to befriend them and
to celebrate their festivities with joy. (Also see Filth; Linen; Used clothing)

Scholars
(Early companions; Legist; Masjid; Men of knowledge; Mosque; Reli¬
gious doctors; Righteous men) A scholar in a dream represents glad tidings, a
promotion, or a commendation and it represents one who acts upon what he
knows and says. Seeing one of the early scholars in a dream means increase in
one’s knowledge, for they were the wise representatives of God’s message on
earth. Seeing them also means increase in one’s wisdom, happiness, joy, and
one’s dream could mean that one will stand to admonish people or counsel them.
Seeing the early righteous people and the blessed companions of God’s Prophet,
upon whom be peace, in a dream means growth of one’s righteousness. If one sees
a scholar who is considered to be a reference in religious knowledge, and if one
accepts his admonition in the dream, though in wakefulness he does not follow
this school of thought, it means that he will be tried with an adversity that will
be remembered by people for sometime to come, though his testimony will be
accepted by the people. If a well-known early scholar appears in one’s dream
when the dwellers of that locality are experiencing adversities, economic
distress or a drought, it means that their calamity will be lifted. Seeing an
unknown scholar, or an unknown religious doctor in a dream means that a
physician or a philosopher may visit one’s house. (Also see Legist; Companions
of the Prophet; uwbp; Masjid; Mosque)

Whale
(Fish; Jonah; Sea life) In a dream, a whale represents an oath, the temple
of righteous people and the prayer mat of the devotees. Seeing a whale in a
dream also means strains, depression, loss of rank, or a growing anger. Seeing
the whale which swallowed God’s prophet Jonah (uwbp) in a dream means
dispelling one’s fears, prosperity for a poor person and the coming relief for
someone in distress. In a dream, a whale also represents the chief minister of
sea life, while the ocean represents the king or the ruler. (Also see Fish)

Astrologer
(Foreseer; Fortuneteller; Predictor; Soothsayer) Seeing an astrologer
in a dream means associating oneself with spiritual masters and witnessing
some of their miraculous signs. An astrologer in a dream also may mean
knowledge of people’s secrets, curiosity, inquisitiveness, meddling in people’s
affairs, divulging people’s secrets, soothsaying, fortune-telling, backbiting,
predicting the future, hearsay, gossip, distress or trouble. If the one who is
seeing the dream suffers from any of the above ills, seeing an astrologer in a
dream also means dispelling such misfortunes. Seeing an astrologer in a dream
also signifies marriage, divorce, the death of a sick person, travels, delivering
a baby, hearing good or bad news. Seeing an astrologer in a dream also may
denote knowledge, following the true path and acting upon it, for a God fearing
astrologer mostly arbitrates by the prophetic rules. (Also see Astrolabe; Divi¬
nation; Fortuneteller)

Quran
(Garden; Holy Book; The Last Revelation) In a dream, the holy Quran
represents a garden because when one looks at it, it looks like a beautiful garden
and its verses are the fruit of knowledge and wisdom the reader can pluck.
Learning a Quranic verse, a saying of God’s Prophet (uwbp), a prophetic
tradition, or a craft in a dream means richness after poverty, or guidance after
heedlessness. If one sees himself in a dream reading from the pages the holy
Quran, it signifies honor, command, happiness and victory. Reciting the Quran
by heart and without reading the pages of the holy Book in a dream means
proving to be true, or having a true claim, being pious, commanding what is good
and forbidding what is evil. If one is told a verse from the holy Quran in a dream,
he should understand it, memorize it and comply with the same. If the verse
reads about mercy or glad tidings or other admonitions in the dream, the
interpretation of one’s dream should be the same. If the Quranic verses recited
in the dream connote an advice, one should act upon it in order for him to reap
its benefits. If one hears a Quranic verse containing a warning, promising
punishment for the disbelievers, or announcing a swift retribution for their sins,
then one should immediately repent for his sins, even if the verses relate to
previous nations or times. If one sees himself reciting the Quran and under¬
standing what it says in a dream, it denotes his vigilance, intelligence, faith and
spiritual awareness. If a Quranic verse is recited to someone, and if he does not
agree with the divine judgement in the dream, it means that he will suffer harm
from someone in authority, or that a punishment from God Almighty will soon
befall him. If an unlettered person sees himself reading the holy Quran in a
dream, it could also mean his death, or his reading of his own records. If one sees
himself reading the holy Quran without true interest in it in a dream, it means
that he follows his own mind, personal interpretations and innovations. If one
sees himself eating the pages of the holy Quran in a dream, it means that he
earns his livelihood from his knowledge of it. If one sees himself completing the
reading of the entire Quran in a dream, it means that a splendid reward from
his Lord is awaiting him, and that he will get whatever he asks for. If a
disbeliever sees himself reading the holy Quran in a dream, the verses of
admonition will help him in his life, the verses of punishment will be his warning
from God Almighty and the parables will denote his need to contemplate the
meaning. If one sees himself writing the verses of the holy Quran on slabs of
a mother of pearl, or on a piece of cloth in a dream, it means that he interprets
it according to his own liking. If one sees himself inscribing a Quranic verse on
the ground in a dream, it means that he is an atheist. It is also said that reading
the Quran in a dream means fulfillment of one’s needs, clearing of one’s heart
and establishment of one’s success in his life. If one discovers that he has
memorized the Quran in a dream, though in wakefulness he has not memorized
it, it means that he will own a large property. Hearing the verses of the holy
Quran in a dream means the strengthening of one’s power, reaching a praiseworthy
end to his life, and that one will be protected from the envy and jealousy of
evildoing people. If a sick person sees himself reciting a verse from the holy
Quran, but could not remember to what chapter it belongs in the dream, it
means that he will recover from his illness. Licking the holy Quran in a dream
means that one has committed a major sin. Reciting the holy Quran in a dream
means increase in one’s good deeds and rising in his station. (Also see Holy Book;

Abraham
(God’s bosom friend, upon whom be peace, arb. khalil) To see the
Prophet Abraham, upon whom be peace, in a dream is a good sign of wealth,
blessings, glad tidings, devotion, long life, assiduousness, healing of a sick,
noble goals, righteous progeny, commanding good and forbidding evil, discard¬
ing bad company, compliance with the divine ruling, knowledge, guidance,
success after failure and separation from one’s family and kin to seek God’s
nearness and pleasure. In a dream, Abraham represents the element of com¬
passion toward one’s son and family and sometime he represents the element
of adversities and finally of reachingsafety. (Also see Feast of Immolation; Station
of Abraham)

Kaaba
(God’s house in Mecca.) In a dream, the holy Kaaba represents the calif
of all Muslims, his chief minister, a leader of a country, or it may represent a
wedding. Seeing the holy Kaaba in a dream also means that one may enter it,
or it could mean receiving glad tidings and dispelling evil. Praying inside the
holy Kaaba in a dream means enjoying the guardianship and protection of
someone in authority, and safety from one’s enemy. Entering inside the holy
Kaaba in a dream means entering before a ruler. Taking something from inside
the holy Kaaba in a dream means receiving something from the ruler. If one of
the walls of the holy Kaaba crumbles in a dream, it means the death of the Calif
or the local governor. Entering the holy Kaaba and failing to perform any of the
prescribed rites in a dream means standing before God Almighty on the Day of
Judgment having performed one’s obligations, or it could mean repenting from
one’s sins. To look at the holy Kaaba in a dream means safety and protection
against fear. If one is given a job in Mecca in a dream, it means that he may
become an Imam. Stealing anything from the holy Kaaba in a dream means
committing a sin. Walking toward the holy Kaaba, or seeking it in a dream
means correcting one’s religious standing. Seeing oneself in Mecca mixing with
departed souls who are inquiring from him about the world in a dream means
to die testifying to the Oneness of God Almighty and to the prophethood of His
Messenger, upon whom be peace. Seeing the Kaaba inside one’s own house in
a dream means that one is still in power and living with grace. If the holy Kaaba
does not look right in one’s eyes in the dream, then it means adversities. If one
sees the holy Kaaba as his own house in a dream, the holy Kaaba then
represents the Imam of all Muslims who is the representative and vice-regent
of God’s Messenger (uwbp), and it means that one truly follows the Imam.
Praying on top of the holy Kaaba in a dream means becoming an apostate.
Entering the holy Mosque in Mecca and praying on the roof of the holy Kaaba
in a dream represents peace, tranquility, presiding over others, it also means
that one will become victorious wherever one goes, though with a questionable
conduct, he also may follow innovation and depart from the traditions and
teachings of God’s Messenger, upon whom be peace. Walkingby the holy Kaaba,
or leaving it behind in a dream means going against the traditions of God’s
Prophet, upon whom be peace, following the path of innovation, or interpreting
things according to one’s own mind and liking. If one sees angels descending
from the heavens to lift away the pillar of God’s House from Mecca and place
it in a different town in the dream, it means that people have gone astray and
the time of destruction has come. It also means that the pillar of the faith, the
righteous guide of the believers and God’s vice-regent on earth Al-Mahdi will
soon emerge to dwell in that town. If one sees the holy Kaaba burning in a
dream, it means that one has neglected or abandoned his prescribed prayers.
Any changes, decrease or increase in the shape of the holy Kaaba, moving of it
away from its place, or changing its look in a dream will reflect upon the Imam,
or the guide of all Muslims. Circumambulating the holy Kaaba or performing
any of the prescribed rites in a dream means walking the path of righteousness,
or correcting one’s religious life as much as one does in his dream. Failure to
perform some of the prescribed rites that are associated with being at the holy
Ka‘aba in a dream indicates one’s deviation from God’s path, and such innovation
is equal to changing the direction ( arb. Qiblah ) of one’s prayers. The holy Kaaba
in a dream also represents one’s prayers, for it is the focal point of all praying
Muslims. The holy Kaaba in a dream also represents God’s House, a mosque,
a community center of all Muslims, and it represents a teacher, a guide, Islam,
the holy Quran, the prophetic traditions, one’s son, a religious scholar, a shaikh,
a master, a husband, one’s mother, and the heavenly paradise. The holy Kaaba
is God’s House, and thereat people will be gathered and led into paradise. The
holy Kaaba in a dream also represents the annual pilgrimage to Mecca, the
gathering of believers, the local markets and the vicinity of the holy Mosque. If
one sees that his own house has become the Kaaba and people are seeking it
and crowds are gathering at his door in a dream, it means that he will be
endowed with wisdom, gain knowledge and act upon it, and that people will
learn at his hand and follow his example. Performing some of the required rites
at the holy Kaaba in a dream also means that one may work for someone in
authority, or serve a man of knowledge, a shaikh, a renunciate, one’s father,
one’s mother, or it could mean that one has a master who demands clarity, true
following and hard-work from his students and disciples. (Also see Circum-

distress, and be saved from their evil. Seeing God’s prophet Hud (uwbp) in a
dream also means that one will receive guidance, blessings and be able to save
others from plagues and destruction.

Joseph
(God’s prophet Joseph, upon whom be peace; arb. Yusuf) Seeing God’s
prophet Joseph (uwbp) in a dream means attaining high rank or a vice-regency.
Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream also could denote a time of rising prices, drought,
loss of one’s family, or suffering from people’s stratagem, entering a prison, then
be released by God’s grace. It also denotes one’s luck with women and adversities
related to one’s beauty and good character. Seeing God’s prophet Joseph in a
dream also means acquiring knowledge about dream interpretation, or catching
one’s enemy, then forgiving him, or digging a river, a water irrigation, or
transporting dead people from one country to another. It also could represent
a great advent or a miracle by the fact that he (uwbp) had performed a miracle
by God’s leave and returned his father’s sight. Joseph’s shirt in a dream means
dispelling distress, sorrows and recovering from illness. If the shirt is spotted
withblood in the dream, then it means separation and imprisonment. Ifhis shirt
is torn from the back in the dream, it means a false accusation. If a woman sees
Joseph (uwbp) in a dream, it means that she will lose her comfort and sight. She
will also live unhappy because of her separation from her beloved, and she will
fall in love with a great man. If the woman who is actually suffering from such
adversity sees such a dream, it means that God Almighty will turn to her with
mercy and guide her to repentance. If she is unmarried, it means that she will
get married. If she is poor, it means that she will become rich, and her life in
this world as well as in the hereafter will turn to her advantage. Seeing Joseph
(uwbp) as a young boy in a dream means having little or no luck with one’s
brethren. He will be lied to, suffer from imprisonment and other trials before
he recuperates, to rise and triumph over them. They will all then become his
subject. One who sees God’s prophet Joseph (uwbp) in a dream will also be a
pious, generous, charitable, and shares his good advice with those who need it,
or ask for it. If Joseph (uwbp) talks to someone, or gives him something in a
dream, it means that one will understand dream interpretations and learn
about Chronicles, or the two biblical books of History. Seeing him (uwbp) in a
dream also means marriage to a beautiful woman who will truly love her
husband. (Also see Jacob; Sale; Introduction p.p. xvi, xvii, xuiii)

Moses
(God’s prophet Moses, upon whom be peace.) If one sees God’s prophet
Moses, upon whom be peace, in a dream, it means that God Almighty will
destroy a tyrant at his hands. Following that, the person seeing the dream will
rise in station, continue to attain one victory after another, and he will never
be humiliated or defeated. Seeing Moses (uwbp) in a dream also denotes the
strength of righteous people, and the inevitable defeat of iniquitous people. If
at the time of seeing a dream with God’s prophet Moses (uwbp) there exist a
tyrant or an ungodly leader, it means that God Almighty will destroy him, and
one will be saved from his evil. If someone in authority becomes Moses (uwbp)
in a dream, or if he wears one of his cloaks, it means that he will vanquish his
enemy and fulfill what his heart desires. If one sees him (uwbp) in a prison or
persecuted, or if one fears a major event that could put and end to his life, or
an accident that could kill him, or a dangerous sea trip that could drown him,
it means that God willing, he will escape and survive such adversity. Seeing
Moses (uwbp) in a dream also means the end of tyranny, or victory in a war. If
one is oppressed, worried and distressed by his own family, and if he sees Moses
(uwbp) in a similar situation in a dream, it means that God Almighty will guide
him to a way to overcome them, or if a traveller sees such a dream, it means that
he will return safely to his home. Seeing Moses (uwbp) in a dream also indicates
trials duringone’s childhood, separation from one’s family, witnessinguncommon
miracles, or that one may suffer from his own family because of an admonition,
or it could represent a will he will leave to them, or it could mean commanding
good and eschewing evil. Seeing Moses (uwbp) in a dream also means love for
travel, praiseworthy intercession, sea travels, a safe return, profits, suffering
from slander and false accusations, or perhaps it could mean that one may have
weakness in his speech, or tottering, or that he may suffer from a head ill or
injury. If someone who has renounced worldly pleasures, an ascetic, or a pious
person sees Moses (uwbp) in a dream, it means increase in his wisdom, light in
his heart and elevation of his station. If a woman sees Moses (uwbp) in a dream,
she must fear loss of her child, or her dream could represent an adversity that
should have a happy ending. If a child sees Moses (uwbp) in a dream, the same
interpretation applies. If one sees himself carrying the staff of Moses (uwbp) in
a dream, it means that he will reach a high rank and win victory over his enemy.
If he is suffering from an evil spell or a sorcery, it means that it will be nullified.

Muhammad
(God’s Prophet Muhammad, blessings and peace be upon him; The
Seal of the prophets; The last Messenger) It is related that God’s Messenger,
upon whom be peace, has said: “One who sees me in a dream will see me in his
wakefulness, for Satan cannot impersonate me. ”He also has said: “One who sees
me in a dream, it is as if he has truly seen me, for Satan cannot impersonate me. ”
He also has said: “One who sees me in a dream will not enter the fire of hell. ”
Muslim theologians and scholars differ in opinion about the meaning of seeing
God’s Prophet (uwbp) in a dream. Imam Ibn Seerin used to ask someone who
tells of such a dream to describe the Prophet, upon whom be peace. If any of the
details did not fit his description, Ibn Seerin’s reply was: “You have not seen
him.” Asim Bin Kulayb once said: “I related to Ibn Abbas, God bless his soul and
that of his father, that I saw God’s Prophet (uwbp) in a dream. Ibn Abbas replied:
“Describe him to me.” Asim Bin Kulayb added: “I described him as resembling
Al-Hassan son of‘Ali, upon both of them be peace.” Ibn Abbas replied: “Indeed
you have seen him.” Ibn ‘Arabi once explained that the essence of seeing God’s
Prophet (uwbp) is cognizance of his presence and understanding the reality of
his character and example. Thus, recognizing the presence of the blessed being
is as affirmation of the truth, while seeing the physical form represents his
example and attributes, for being earthly does not change the essence of
prophethood. When God’s Prophet (uwbp) said: “He will see me in wakefulness,”
it means: ‘Expounding upon what he saw,’ for what one sees in such a dream is
the truth which resides in the realms of the unseen. In the second saying, when
God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace, said: “It is as if he has truly seen me,” it
means that if one had seen him during the time of delivering God’s massage, the
example will be the same. Thus, the first saying signifies what is real and true
while the second saying implies the physical reality and its example. If one sees
God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace, coming toward him in a dream, it means
blessings and benefits, and if one sees God’s prophet (uwbp) turning away from
him in a dream, it means the opposite. Al-Qadi ‘Iyad, God bless his soul, in¬
terpreted the words of God’s Prophet (uwbp) in his saying: “Has truly seen me,"
to mean: “has truly seen my physical form,” that the blessed companions knew,
while seeing him in another form in a dream means that one’s dream connotes
personal interpretations. Following the explanation of Al-Qadi ‘Iyad, Imam Al-
Nawawi commented by saying: “This is a weak explanation. A stronger inter¬
pretation is to say that one who sees God’s Prophet (uwbp) in a dream has seen
him in reality however his resemblance may appear. Whether the resemblance
in the dream is known or not.” In a separate commentary, Shaikh Al-Baqlani
added: “What Al-Qadi ‘Iyad has said does not contradict what Imam Al-Nawawi
has said.” This is because the first dream does not require interpretation,
according to Al-QadI ‘Iyad. In the second type of dream, that is discussed in
Imam Al-Nawawi’s comments, one’s dream does require interpretation or
analysis. This is to mean that since no Satan can impersonate God’s Prophet
(uwbp), then whatever appearance he displays in one’s dream is true. The
meaning of God’s prophet’s saying: “For Satan cannot impersonate me, ” implies
that since God’s guardianship (Isma ) is inviolable, and since God’s Prophet,
upon whom be peace, is sacrosanct, then as he was protected during the time
of delivering God’s message to humanity, he is still protected by the same
guardianship after God Almighty took him back to Himself. Thus, whoever sees
God’s Prophet (uwbp) in any appearance in a dream, it is as if has seen him in
reality, regardless whether one sees him as a young man, or at the time of
delivering his message, or as an old person. If one sees him looking old in a
dream, it means peace. If one sees him looking young in a dream, it means war.
If one sees him smiling in a dream, it means that one is truly emulating his
traditions. Seeing God’s Prophet (uwbp) in his known and recognized appear¬
ance in a dream means that the one seeing the dream is a pious person, that his
integrity is inviolable, and that his success is unquestionable. Seeing him
(uwbp) in a dream frowning represents the ill state of the one seeing the dream.
Ibn Abi Jumrah once said: “Seeing Him (uwbp) in a beautiful appearance
denotes the good religious standing of the person seeing the dream. Seeing him
with some disfeatures in a dream, a deficiency or distortion in one’s application
of his religious duties, for God’s Prophet (uwbp) is like a mirror that portrays
the one standing before it.” In this sense, the person seeing the dream can
recognize his own state. This interpretation is also given by Ibn Hajar Al-Hutaymi,
God bless his soul. Like that, in the book of ‘Sharh al-Shama-il’ of Imam Al-
Tirmithi, it is also stated that Satan cannot impersonate God Almighty, His
signs, prophets or angels. If someone suffering from distress sees God’s Prophet
(uwbp) in a dream, it means that his difficulties will be removed. If a prisoner
sees him in a dream, it means that he will be released form prison. If one is living
at a time of economic chaos, and if high prices are exploiting the people of the
land, or if injustice is tyrannizing everyone, then seeing God’s Prophet, upon
whom be peace, in a dream represents an end to such adversities. Seeing him
in his beautiful, radiant and impeccable appearance as best described by his
companions in a dream means glad tidings of attaining a successful conclusion
to one’s life in this world and in the hereafter. The state and clarity of one’s heart
and how well polished is his own mirror determines in what appearance he may
see him, upon whom be peace. If God’s Prophet (uwbp) comes toward someone
in a dream, or leads him in prayers, or if one sees himself accompanying him
on the road, or if one eats something sweet from his blessed hand, or receives
a cloak, or a suitable shirt, or if God’s Prophet promises him something, or prays
for him, then if the one seeing the dream qualifies for leadership, and if he is
a righteous and a just man who commands what is good and forbids what is evil,
and if he is learned and practices what he knows, and if he is a pious worshipper
and a devout Muslim, he will then attain the station and company of the blessed
ones. If the one who sees the dream is a disobedient servant of God Almighty,
it means that he will repent for his sins and return to his Lord. If he is living
in heedlessness, it means that he will be guided. Perhaps, he might attain his
goals in acquiring knowledge, or learn how to reconstruct his innermost being
to befit a human being who is grateful to his Lord. If one is fearing oppression,
persecution, or loss of his property and wealth sees him (uwbp) in a dream, it
means putting an end to such fears, for he is the best of intercessors to restore
anyone before God Almighty. If one who follows innovations sees God’s Prophet
(uwbp) in a dream, it means that he should fear God Almighty, heed to His
warnings and correct himself and particularly if he sees Him (uwbp) walking
away from him, or turning his back to him. Seeing God’s Prophet (uwbp) in a
dream also means receiving glad tidings and happy news, or it could signify
justice, establishing the truth, fulfillment of a promise, reaching a high rank
among the members of one’s family, or perhaps it could mean that one may suffer
from their envy and jealousy, or leave his homeland and migrate to another
country, or it could mean that he may lose his parents and become an orphan.
Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream also could mean seeing miraculous events
( Karamat ), for his companions witnessed and testified to a deer greeting him,
a camel who kissed his foot, the broiled leg of mutton talking to him, trees
moving to give him cover, pebbles glorifying God’s praises in his hand, among
countless miracles, including his Nocturnal Journey and ascension ( Miraj ) to
the heavens to meet his Lord. If an ophthalmologist sees him in a dream, it
means that he will acquire great expertise in his field and become renowned in
the land, for God’s prophet upon whom be peace, did return the eye of his
companion Qutadah to its place and made his sight sharper than it was by God’s
leave, after Qutadah had lost his eye during one of the battles with the
unbelievers. If a traveller in the desert sees God’s Prophet (uwbp) in a dream,
or if there is drought somewhere, it means that rain will fall and springs will
gush forth, as water gushed from between his blessed fingers when he placed
his blessed hand over a half filled cup to quench the thirst of an entire army.
If calamities, starvation and drought has befallen a land and someone sees Him

it denotes the generosity of the ruler and his compliance with the distribution
of charities and alms tax as prescribed in God’s book. If his hands are locked
together in a dream, it means complications in the life of the Imam, or the ruler

(uwbp), it represents her growing faith. If one sees him (uwbp) looking into one’s
affairs in a dream, it means that God’s Prophet (uwbp) is admonishing the one
seeing the dream and commanding him to render his wife her due rights. To
walk behind him (uwbp) in a dream means following his ( Sunnah ) traditions in
wakefulness. To eat with him (uwbp) in a dream means that one is commanded
to pay the annual alms tax ( Islamic law) due over one’s money making assets,
or liquid assets, gold, silver, jewelry, savings, etcetera, excepting one’s home or
vehicle. If one sees God’s Prophet (uwbp) eating alone in a dream, it means that
the one seeing the dream refuses to give charities and disdains to help those who
ask for his help. In this sense, it is as if God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace, is
commanding the person to give charities and to help the needy. If one sees him
(uwbp) bare footed in a dream, it means that one has neglected to do his regular
prayers. To see him (uwbp) and to shake hands with him in a dream means that

Noah
(God’s prophet Noah, upon whom be peace.) In a dream, God’s prophet Noah
(uwbp) represents longevity, adversities, sufferings, triumph, children from a
disgraceful wife, though one will remain content and grateful to God Almighty
for His gift. It is said that one who sees the prophet Noah (uwbp) in a dream will
become a scholar, an assiduous worshipper and an obedient servant who
exercises patience and forbearance. He will also triumph over his enemies and
receive a magnificent endowment from his Lord. His companions will disobey
him and by God’s leave, he will win over them too. Seeing God’s prophet Noah
(uwbp) in a dream also means rain and floods. Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream
also means suffering from many enemies, and from the jealousy and envy of
one’s neighbors. At the end, they will all suffer from God’s punishment, and he
will be saved from their evil. Seeing God’s prophet Noah (uwbp) in a dream also
signifies the destruction of the unbelievers and the victory of the believers. If
one sees him in a ship in a dream, it means that such a ship will escape from
destruction, or that all its people will be saved from drowning. Seeing God’s
prophet Noah (uwbp) in a dream also means facing a strong army of unbelievers,
their blatant attitudes, their verbal and physical abuse of the believers, and
their unrestrained persecution of the physically weak among them. It also
denotes the weakness of people’s faith and their lack of trust in God Almighty.
Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream also means spending a lifetime in devotion and
servitude to one’s Lord, commanding good and forbidding evil. If a ruler sees
God’s prophet Noah (uwbp) in a dream, it means that his subject will disobey
him. Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream also means crying and lamentation, disputes
with one’s family, rising prices, relief from distress, adversities and having
recalcitrant children. Seeing him in a dream also represents a flourishing
business, farming, a ship building industry, travelling with several types of
food, or mixing different species of animals. God’s prophet Noah (uwbp) in a
dream also may represent a genealogist, a zoologist, a botanist, a phytologist,
a horticulturalist, an ecologist, or a mammalogist. Seeing God’s prophet Noah
(uwbp) in a dream also may mean regretting something, distress, penitence for
an attitude toward one’s own family, or perhaps that one’s son will stray away
from God’s path, or it could mean the death of a son because of his disobedience
to his father. If a woman sees God’s prophet Noah (uwbp), or God’s prophet Lot
(uwbp) in a dream, it means that she is disobedient to her husband, and rather
she obeys her own family and clan. On the other hand, if a woman sees Egypt’s

Madyan and one of the children of God’s prophet Abraham, upon whom be

measures, cheat in their weight, withhold things that are due and do mischief.
Such people will cause him harm, though at the end one will triumph over them,

ghastly in the dream, it means that one may lose his sight.

Solomon
(God’s prophet Solomon, upon whom be peace.) God Almighty subju¬
gated the wind to serve the prophet Solomon. Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream
denotes leadership, the seat of a judge, acquiring wisdom, or giving religious
interpretations if the person who sees him in a dream qualifies. This vision
becomes stronger if the Prophet Solomon crowns the person, or places a ring on
his right hand, or sits him beside himself on his throne. Seeing him (uwbp) in
a dream also means overcoming adversities and hardships, and receiving a
divine endowment of an exalted station in this world, and greater blessings in
the hereafter. Seeing him (uwhp) in a dream also means trials with women and
ingratitude on their part. If the person who sees God’s prophet Solomon in a
dream is a governor, it means that he will be dismissed from his functions,
though his authority will be restored later on, or he could through cheating,
marry a rich woman. If the one who sees God’s prophet Solomon in a dream
practices sorcery, witchcraft, black magic, or invoking jinn or evil spirits, it
means that he will profit from his trade and become wealthy after having lost
hope in attaining such benefits, or he could triumph over his enemy. Whoever
sees God’s prophet Solomon (uwbp) in his dream will receive God’s favors,
including clear visions, clarity of religious interpretations, the ability to learn
many languages, or he could become a translator, or perhaps could master the
Arabic language. Seeing Solomon in a dream also means that one will recover

may acquire knowledge about herbal medicine. If one sees him laying dead on
his bed in a dream, it means that the calif, an army commander, a leader, or a
man of knowledge will die in that locality and whose death will remain
undetected, or undisclosed for sometime. Seeing him (uwbp) in a dream also
means increase in one’s travels, supremacy over one’s enemy and subjugation

Engraver
(Goldsmith; Leather craftsman; or any craft using a hammer and a
chisel.) An engraver in a dream represents knowledge and pursuit of the
prophetic traditions. In a dream, an engraver also means deception, trickery
and imposing credulity upon others through dishonesty. A stone carver in a
dream represents someone who deals with people of ignorance. A copper
engraver represents disputes and illness. Gold and silver engraver in a dream
represents clear wisdom and putting things where they belong. An engraver in
a dream also represents a worldly person. If he also deals with fabrics in the

money to serve evil people or investing money in their projects, lies, falsehood
and hypocrisy. The customers in the dream represent people who prefer worldly
and temporary benefits over the eternal reward and benefits of the hereafter.
If the engraver sells the merchandise but does not accept money for them in the
dream, it means that he prefers his spiritual life over his temporary material
pleasure and that he is grateful to God Almighty. If he asks for a price for his
services, then it means the opposite. If the engraver barters what he sells for
wheat or flour in the dream, it means that he will become detached from worldly
interests, and that he is grateful for his Lord’s blessings. An engraver in a dream
also represents a person who teaches arts and science.

Aqiqah rites
(Hair of a newborn; Immolation offered on the seventh day for a
newborn; Islamic tradition of shaving the hair of a newborn on the seventh day
after his birth; Sacrament; Weighing the shaved hair of a newborn and distrib¬
uting an equal measure in gold or silver in charity for his benefit.) The offering
of an ‘Aqiqah ceremony in a dream represents glad tidings, the arrival of a long
awaited person, recovering from an illness, or the release of a prisoner. Partici¬
pating in the sacrament of the ‘Aqiqah rites in a dream also could represent a
growing faith and certitude, and emulating the blessed traditions of God’s
Prophet, upon whom be peace. If the sacrifice presented in one’s dream on that
day is a permissible one and if one fulfills all the necessary rituals in his dream,
then it denotes his praiseworthy character and the success of his endeavors. If
one offers a non-permissible sacrifice in his dream and presents it to people to
eat from, then his dream represents a recalcitrant child, or a rebellious son.

Amulet
(Incantation; Prayer; Talisman; A prayer worn around the neck or
cherished to word off evil and attract good fortune.) When a prayer is read in
a dream following the prophetic traditions to help a sick person in the dream,
it means protection from sufferings, dispelling distress and dissipation of
sadness. If the amulet or the talisman carries a personal spell or wish, then it is nothing but lies, falsehood, affectation and hypocrisy. If the person who
recites the incantation in the dream is a craftsperson, it means that he defrauds
the people and fakes his product. If he is a man of knowledge, it means that he
lies or hides his true knowledge, abstains from giving true advice, or perhaps
he offers a poor quality of worship. If the one reciting the incantation in the
dream is a judge, it means that he will give a wrong judgement. If one is given
to drink some water over which specific prayers were recited in a dream, it
means longevity. If one sees himself reciting an incantation, or if he hears
incantations recited on his behalf in a dream, it will all be false except for a
prayer that recites: ‘In the Name of God, the Most Merciful, the Most Compas¬
sionate’ or contains a Quranic revelation.

Preacher
(Khatib; Sermon) A preacher delivering his sermon in a dream represents
purity, submission, repentance, crying, rising in station, longevity, mixing with
a fellowship of believers, commanding what is good and forbidding what is evil,
celebrations, weddings, or anniversary meetings. If an unwed woman sees him
in her dream, it means that she will get married through a third party
involvement. The same goes for an unwed man, or it could indicate his search
for a wife. If a suitable person sees himself being a preacher in a dream, it means
that he will be appointed to manage a sensitive position of authority. If one sees
himself delivering a sermon (Kh utha) in accordance with the prescribed method
and prophetic traditions in a dream, it means that he will be helped at doing his
work. If he wears a white garment instead of a black one when delivering his
sermon in the dream, it means that he will rise in station and that his earnings
will increase. If one sees himself sitting down rather than standing up when
delivering his sermon in a dream, it means that he will preside over his
companions. If one sees himself sitting on the pulpit rather than standing up
and delivering his sermon in a dream, this maybe interpreted as afflictions and
disgrace. If an unqualified person sees himself delivering a sermon during the
pilgrimage season in a dream, in this case his dream may refer to someone in
his company who will do so, or it may mean that he will suffer from an illness
or a mishap. If he delivers a sermon and people hearken to his words in the
dream, it means that he will become a respected and obeyed guardian or leader.
If he does not finish his sermon in the dream, it means that his guardianship
will not last, or that he will resign or be fired from his job. If a woman sees herself
delivering a sermon and admonishing people in a dream, it means that she will
gain power, or marry a strong and a righteous man. If she sees herself giving
a sermon on Friday’s congregational prayers in a dream, it means that she will
be divorced, or conceive a child from adultery. (Also see Friday; Setting out)

something, or engaging in a major dispute, or sustaining an argument, or it
could mean losing one’s sense of taste. (Also see Chewing food; Chewing)

Arabic months
(Lunar months: 1- Muharram; 2- 3- Rabi-'uIAwal; 4- Rabi'u
Thani'; 5-Jamadul Awwal; 6- Jamadu Thani'; 7- Rajab; 8- Sha'ban; 9- Ramadan;
10- Shawwal; 11- Zul-Qi'dah; 12- Zul-Hiliah) Seeing a dream during the month of Muharram means that the dream is most true as it is seen. Thus, having a
dream during the month of Muharram could be even called a vision and it never
fails. Such a dream means success, relief from difficulties, release from a prison,
or recovering from an illness. If the person had retreated from his town, he will
return to it. This interpretation is based on the story of God's prophet Jonah,
upon whom be peace, after he emerged from the belly of the whale. Perhaps the
person in the dream may face a great spiritual challenge in his life, or it could
mean the death of a great man of knowledge or the emergence of such a gnostic
or wise man in that city. If the person seeing the dream is a sinner, it means that
he will repent of his sins, for God Almighty has accepted the repentance ofAdam,
upon whom be peace, during that month. If the person in the dream is one who
hopes for a station of honor, he will attain it, because God Almighty has raised
the prophet Enoch (Idrls) upon whom be peace, to a high station during that
month. If a traveller sees a dream during that month, it means that he will safely
return home from a long journey, because it is the month in which the prophet
Noah upon whom be peace, was saved with his people, and it is the month in
which the arc settle on top of Mount Judiyyi. If the seer desires a son, then he
will beget a righteous son, because it is the month in which God's prophets
Abraham and Jesus, upon both of them be peace, were born. If the person seeing
the dream is suffering from tight financial circumstances and if he desired a way
out, it means that he will see the light or escape from the danger of his enemy,
because this is the month in which God's prophet Abraham was saved from the
fire ofNimrod, or perhaps, ifhe had followed a path of innovation and falsehood,
he will turn back to God Almighty and repent of his sin, because it is also the
month in which God Almighty forgave the prophet David, upon whom be peace.
If the person in the dream is impeached from his leadership position or stripped
from his status, he will return to his office and regain honor, because it is also
the month in which God Almighty returned the prophet Solomon to his kingdom.
If one is bedridden, it means that he will recover from his illness, because it is
the month in which the prophet Job (uwbp) recovered from his illness, or
perhaps it could mean that one will be sent as an emissary with a mission, or
as an ambassador, because it is during this month that God Almighty spoke to
His prophet Moses upon whom be peace. As for the second lunar month, known
in Arabic as Safar, having a dream during it could be interpreted as follows: If
one is pessimistic about what he saw, then it could mean the opposite. If he is
sick, it means recovering from his illness. If one is needy, it means that his needs
will be satisfied. If one is suffering from stress and worries, it means that they
can cause him no harm. If one sees his dream during the third lunar month,
known in Arabic as Rabt-rul Awwal, and if he is a merchant, it means that his
business will grow, prosper and that his money will be blessed or perhaps he may
conceive a child during that month. If he is under stress and worries, they will
be dispelled. Ifhe is persecuted or treated unjustly, he will end in a triumph,
or it could mean that he will hear good news, or he may be appointed as a
governor, or he may admonish people to do good and discard evil, for it is the
month in which God's Prophet Muhammad, upon whom be peace, was born to
this world. If one's dream takes place during the fourth lunar month, known in
Arabic as Rabi'u Thiini, and if it suggests glad tidings, then one may have to
wait and exercise patience, but ifit suggests evil, then such happening will come
fast. During this month, seeing a dream also means victory over one's enemy,
or it could mean conceiving a blessed son who will grow to become a gnostic, or
a hero, for it is during this month that the Imam 'Ali, may God bless his
countenance and be forever pleased with him was born. As for the fifth lunar
month, known in Arabic as Jamiidul Awwal, seeing a dream during this month
means that one should slow down or scrutinize his buying and selling, or it could
mean that he may lose his daughter or wife, for it is in this month that the daughter of God's Messenger, upon whom be peace, Fatima died. May God. be
forever pleased with her. If the dream happens during the sixth lunar month,
known in Arabic as Jamadu Thaw, and if the dream carries a good meaning,
it will come, but slow and one should not contradict it. If one sees this dream
during the seventh lunar month, known in Arabic as Rajab, it means that he
will gain honor and status, for it is the month of the prophet's Ascension (Mi'raj)
and his night journey to the seventh heaven. A dream during the eighth lunar
month, known in Arabic as Sha'ban, represents honor and ranks, for during
this month, every good deed will be honored. As for the ninth lunar month,
known in Arabic as Ramadan, in it, all difficulties will be suspended, evil will
be shun and stinginess will be dispelled. During this month all what is good will
manifest and bad dream will dissipate to become null and void. During this
month, the dreams of a believer may be differently interpreted than the dream
of a disbeliever. If one sees the month of Ramadan in his dream, his dream
means blessings, profits, commanding good and forbidding evil. If the person is
seeking knowledge, then knowledge will be given to him, for it is during this
great month that the Holy Qur'an was revealed. If the person is inflicted with
epilepsy, he will recover from it, for the devils and all evil spirits are shackled
and are rendered powerless during this month. As for the tenth lunar month,
known in Arabic as Shawwal, if one's dream suggests a war or a conflict, it
means that he will come first in it, and that he will triumph. If one sees the
month of Shawwal in his dream, it means that he will come out of difficulties
and finds happiness and devotion, for it is the month during which that God's
House, known as the Ka'aba was built. As for the eleventh lunar month, known
in Arabic as Zul-Qi'dah, if one's dream suggests a trip, then the person should
refrain from taking that trip or perhaps he should delay it for the better. He also
should guard himself where he lives. If the dream denote stress or worries, then
he should avoid whatever may cause them. However, if one's dream takes place
during the twelfth lunar month, known inArabic as Zul-Hijjah indicates a journey
then one may take it, or if it denotes a good business, one should seek it, for it
is a most blessed month and it is the month of festivities and sacrifices. If one
sees this month in his dream or sees himself offering sacrifices in it, or if he sees
himself praying the festival of Sacrifice prayers in it, his dream means paying
one's debts or fulfilling one's vows, repentance from sin, guidance or perhaps his
dream may indicate the death of great people of knowledge, the impeachment
of governors, the changing of governments, or it could mean a sudden war.

Intercession
(Mediation) Interceding on behalf of someone in a dream represents
honor, a seat of authority, or influence. Intercession in a dream also means
cheating, or earning a wage for one’s work without humiliation. If one sees the
Day of Reckoning in a dream and people searching for an intercessor among the
prophets, upon all of them be peace, it means social unrest and privation of the
poor and needy from one's assistance. If one’s neighbor intercedes for him on
such a day in a dream, it means that one will benefit from his neighbor, or receive
his help, or find a helper in a friend in times of difficulty. If one sees his own son
interceding on his behalf in a dream, it means that he will benefit from him or
through his business connections, and the same is true if one intercedes on
behalf of someone else in a dream. (Also see Day of Reckoning)

If one sees himself mute in a dream, it means that he is ignorant. Dumbness in

David
(Prophet David, upon whom be peace.) If one sees him in a dream, it means
that he will gain power, authority, commit a sin, become an ascetic, be tried and
oppressed by an unjust person, then he will be saved by God’s leave and regain
the upper hand over his enemy. He will also receive an exalted office or rank of
honor. It is also said, that if one sees the prophet David (uwbp) in a dream, that
his country or town will be governed by a just ruler, an honorable president or
a righteous judge. If in fact the ruler or the judge of that town, county or country
is an unjust person, then seeing God’s prophet David (uwbp) in a dream means
that God Almighty will surely replace him with a just and an honorable one. If
one becomes God’s prophet David (uwbp), or if he wears his robe in the dream
it means that he will be appointed as a judge, if he qualifies. If he does not
qualify, it means that he will prosper, or that he will grow in piety and become
righteous through much devotion, piety, sadness and crying in fear of his Lord
and love for Him. Seeing the prophet David (uwbp) in a dream also means
deputyship, trials with women, trouble caused by women, or it could mean
recitation of the Quran or being in a state of constant remembrance of God
Almighty, prayers, supererogatory prayers at night, understanding the meaning
of what one reads, repentance from sin, chanting songs of God’s love, returning
to God’s path after heedlessness, manufacturing and processing minerals, or it
could represent God’s acceptance of one’s repentance. Should one be in such a
manufacturing or processing business, it means that great wealth will come to
him, or that his adversities will be of little importance. Seeing the prophet David
(uwbp) in a dream also means reaching a successful conclusion to one’s life in
this world. If an unjust man of knowledge sees him frowning at him or warning
him, then one must be at his guard, fear any wrongdoing and correct himself.

Malik
(The archangel Malik; The guardian of hell-fire) Seeing the archangel Malik
in a dream means standing before a policeman or a police commissioner for
questioning. If he smiles in the dream, it means that one will be saved from
imprisonment. If a sick person sees such a dream, it means that he may die
shortly. If one becomes the archangel Malik, or eats something sweet from his
hand in a dream, it denotes that one is a true follower on the path of God
Almighty and His Prophet, upon whom be peace. It also means that one loves
his brethren on the path. It also means that one will be honored, gain power,
abstain from sin or from any act of disobeying God’s commands, and he will
become free from hypocrisy and heedlessness. It also could mean that one is
guided and that he loves God’s religion. Eating something that is given by Malik
in a dream also means abstinence and repentance from sin, or it could mean
submitting to guidance after having gone astray. If one sees the archangel Malik
walking toward him in a dream, it means peace and safety from hell-fire. It also
means salvation and restoration of one’s faith. However, if he sees the archangel
Malik walking away from him and showing displeasure in the dream, it means
that one will commit an act that will deliver him into the blaze of hell-fire. (Also
see Hell-fire)

Night of power
(The night in which the Holy Quran was revealed.) Seeing and
experiencing the night of power in a dream means that one’s wish will come true,
even if one desired a kingdom or a great treasure. The same interpretation
applies for seeing a celebration of the night of the Nocturnal Journey during
which the Prophet Muhammad, upon whom be peace, ascended to the heavens
to meet his Lord. The same interpretation is given to seeing the Friday eve in
one’s dream.

Aaron
(The Prophet Aaron, the older brother of God’s prophet Moses, upon both
of them be peace.) Seeing the prophet Aaron (uwbp) in a dream means exaltedness,
leadership, or that one may become an Imam, a vice-regent of a great person,
and perhaps suffer from many adversities because of it. Finally, he will triumph
and attain his goals, or he may destroy a tyrant and an unjust ruler. If a warrior
sees God’s prophet Moses or his brother the prophet Aaron, upon both of them
be peace and blessings, in a dream, it means that he will be victorious and
triumph over his enemy.

Daniel
(The prophet Daniel, upon whom be peace.) If one sees him in a dream, it
means that he will become a great scholar in interpreting the divine revelations.
It is also said, that one who sees him (uwbp) in a dream may become a leader,
a minister, acquire extensive knowledge, but yet suffers a painful persecution
which he will later defeat. If one sees himself carrying the prophet Daniel, upon
whom be peace, over his shoulders, sitting him beside a wall or talking to him,
or if he sees the prophet Daniel talking to him, delivering glad tidings to him
or feeding him honey with his own hand, it means that the person in the dream
will become a great scholar or a commentator in religious interpretations.

Ismail
(The prophet Ismail, son of the prophet Abraham, upon both of them be
peace.) If one sees him in a dream, it means that he will gain clarity of speech
and preside over his colleagues. He also may build a mosque, or participate in
such a project. It also means that someone will make a promise and be truthful
about fulfilling it. If one sees Ismail in a dream, it means that he may suffer at
the hands of his father, then God Almighty will relief him from such sufferings
or pain.

Jacob
(The prophet Jacob, upon whom be peace.) Seeing God’s prophet Jacob
(uwbp) in a dream means strength, living in God’s blessings and having many
children. Some of the children will cause their father grief, though his distress
will later dissipate. Seeing God’s prophet Jacob (uwbp) in a dream also means
dispersal of one’s family that will be followed by a joyful reunion. Seeing God’s
prophet Jacob (uwbp) in a dream also means earning God’s nearness through
devotion, prayers, charity and good deeds. It also could mean temporary loss of
one’s sight, finding a missing child, or suffering a trial because of one’s
attachment to his blood ties, though God willing, the results will be positive.
Seeing him in a dream also means a calamity, or loss of family and wealth. The
person in the dream also will be endowed with great patience and will come out
of it victorious. If a sick person sees him (uwbp) in his dream, it means that he
will recover from his illness. If he has a prayer or a need, they will be fulfilled.
If one sees himself wearing Jacob’s robe in a dream, it means that he will be
afflicted with calamities, distress, separation from his family and beloveds, or
it could mean an illness. At the end, his sufferings will vanish to be replaced with
happiness. Seeing God’s prophet Jacob (uwbp) in a dream also means business,
travels, rising prices, stashing merchandise then revealing it. If a woman sees
Jacob’s wife in a dream, it means that she will be stripped of her wealth and
become subject of defamation, though again, the conclusion of her case will turn
positive. It also could mean the imprisonment of one of her children. If a sick
person sees her in a dream, it means that he will recover by God’s mercy and
grace, since her name was ‘Rahma’ (Mercy). (Also see Joseph, upon whom be
peace.)

Seth
(The prophet Seth, upon whom be peace.) Seeing God’s prophet Seth, upon

also means becoming a guardian over a blessed and an important child, or it
could denote an important appointment one will manage with decency, integrity
and honor, for the prophet Seth, upon whom be peace, was the first appointed
guardian on earth.

Adjuring
(To command solemnly; to swear by God; or to take an oath.) If one sees
himself swearing in God’s Name before someone in a dream, it means that the
other person will deceive him. To swear solemnly by the stars, the celestial signs
or by any physical sign in a dream means arrogance, deception, humiliation,
hypocrisy or heedlessness. If one is truthful in his oath in a dream it means that
he will win his argument, speak the truth or perform an act that pleases God
Almighty. To swear by God in a dream when failure to perform requires
atonement means following the truth and emulating the leading example of
God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace.

Shadow
(Under the sun, in the dark, or otherwise.) In a dream, a shadow
represents changes affecting one’s life in the world and his elevation or abasement.
A shadow in a dream also means guidance, repentance, true monotheism and
contemplating the Maker and His creation. If one moves but does not see his
shadow moving in a dream, it means abrogating the laws, discarding what is
permissible, adopting what is unlawful, death, becoming motionless, or losing
one’s senses. The same interpretation applies if one’s shadow disappears under
the sunlight, or under the moonlight, or in the night lights, or if his reflection
disappears from the water surface, or from any shiny surface. If one sees his
shadow dancing in a dream, it means falsehood, lies, stealing people’s money,
shifting one’s faith according to one’s personal interests, or that he criticize the
conduct of God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace. Dancing one’s shadow over a
carpet in a dream means invoking evil spirits, speaking their words after being
possessed by them, and it means trials, temptations and evil. (Also see Shade)

Eagle
(Vulture) Eagle is the king of birds. Struggling with an eagle in a dream
means distress, fury of one’s superior or subjugation to an unjust person.
Owning an obedient, well tamed eagle in a dream means prosperity, honor and
power. Owning and flying an eagle in a dream means becoming a tyrant. The
scratch of an eagle in a dream means a sickness. A killed eagle in a dream means
the death of a ruler. If a pregnant woman sees an eagle in her dream, it means
seeing a midwife or a nurse. In a dream, an eagle also may be interpreted to
represent a great ruler, a prophet or a righteous person. Hearing the cry of an
eagle in a dream means a fight. Eating the flesh of an eagle or getting hold of
some of its feathers in a dream means receiving money from a ruler. If an eagle
catches someone and soars away with him horizontally in a dream, it means
travels. If he flies away with him vertically in the dream, it means death. In a
dream, an eagle also means longevity, prosperity, innovation or heedlessness.

Pearl diver
A pearl diver in a dream represents a royalty, a great person, or a man
of authority. Diving into the seawater to catch pearls in a dream means entering
into a business with someone in authority, then marrying a daughter from his
family and begetting a beautiful son from her. Seeing a pearl diver in a dream
also means seeking to learn about something, or seeking to borrow money from
a merchant, or asking someone in authority for an important appointment, or
it could mean adventuring into the business of treasure hunting. A pearl diver
in a dream also represents someone who knows the inside secrets of things, or
he could be a scholar, a gnostic, a seeker on the path, or an interpreter of the
true meanings of the early prophetic teachings. (Also see Diving)

Burial
If one sees himself being buried after his death in a dream, it means that
he will undertake a long journey during which he will be short of money. If one
sees himself being buried alive and if he recognizes the one buiying him in the
dream, it means that the latter will assault him, oppress him, imprison him or
cause him injustice. If he dies in his grave after his burial in the dream, it means
that he may die from such sufferings. Should he survive such adversities in the
dream, it means that he will escape from such fear, prison or injustice. If he sees
the other person driving him to the edge of his grave in a dream, it means that
he will lead him to his death, though his name will be praised after his death.
If the other person places him inside a coffin in a dream, it means that he will
move to a new home. If the other person fills the grave with dirt on top of him
in the dream, it means that he will be piled with money equal to the amount he
is being buried under in the dream. It is said that to be buried alive in a dream
means losing one’s spirituality or religious commitment, unless one comes out
of it alive. If one walks out of his grave covered with dirt, then shakes off the
dust in the dream, it means that his state is hopeless or that his repentance has
little chance to hold. To be buried alive in a dream means imprisonment or
despise by others, or a severe punishment which makes one’s chastisement an
exemplary lesson to others, If a gnostic or a wise man is seen buried alive inside
his own house, or if he is brought out of it alive in a dream, it means that one
will inherit him in knowledge, wisdom and status. The same interpretation is
given if one sees a prophet or a holy man walking out of his grave alive. To be
buried after death, after sunrise, at noon or at the sunset hour in a dream means
that one is being warned about doing what is good and abstaining from what is
evil. To be buried alive in a dream is wrong and means betrayal. It could also
mean marriage, prosperity or peace and tranquility after suffering and hard¬
ships. If one sees a deceased person burying him alive in a dream, it means that
one’s due debts are not payed, or that one will be imprisoned to satisfy his debts,
or that his collateral was not accepted. To bury a dead person twice means that
one is covering his faults. If one sees a deceased person burying another
deceased person in a dream, it means unity, clearing of the hearts, love and
friendship between relatives, or perhaps it could mean imprisonment, marriage,
a sickness, a trust, or guaranteeing a loan. Seeing oneself being buried after
death in a dream means that one needs to repent before death. Should he still
walk alive from his burial in the dream, it means that he may repent again. God
knows best. (Also see Cemetery; Grave)

Dream interpreter
In a dream, a dream interpreter represents happiness for a sad
person and sorrow for a happy person. If one who desires to maintain secrecy
around his life and goals sees a dream interpreter in his dream, it means that
he will find an intimate friend or a confidant to complete his intention. If one
is expecting news from an associate or if someone in a different land sees a dream
interpreter in his dream, it means that he will receive the desired news. A dream
interpreter in a dream also represents knowledge of sings, deciphering mes¬
sages, analyzing substances, a tracer, a religious scholar, a lawyer, a good
advisor, a compassionate friend, a judge or a physician. A dream interpreter in
a dream also represents someone who does not keep a secret or someone who
brings people both happy or sad news. In a dream, he is also a preacher, an
advisor, one who balances things, a money changer, a garment cleaner, an
undertaker, a barber, a comedian, a news broadcaster or someone who searches
for people’s faults. Seeing oneself as a dream interpreter in a dream, and if one
qualifies to sit on the bench, it means that he will become a judge. If he is seeking
knowledge, he will acquire it. If he is seeking to become a physician, he will
become one. Otherwise, he might become a money changer, a banker or any of
the earlier mentioned trades. Telling a dream interpreted a dream in one’s
dream, and if the explanation agrees with the common wisdom and religious
norms of the Holy Quran and the traditions of God’s Prophet, upon whom be
peace, then whatever one is told in his dream is true. If one does not understand
the explanation of the dream interpreter in his dream, then he might need to
find a qualified interpreter in wakefulness to satisfy his needs. (Also see As¬
trologer; Divination; Fortuneteller; Founder; Interpretation; Seer)

Turtle
In a dream, a turtle represents a woman who likes to adorn herself and to
make herself noticeable to please men. A turtle in a dream is also interpreted
as a man of knowledge, or a chiefjustice, because she is most knowledgeable and
God fearing amongst the sea creatures. In a dream, a turtle therefor could
represent a devout worshipper who reads the scrolls of God’s prophet Abraham,
upon whom be peace, or any of the holy scriptures. Seeing a pet turtle in a house
or a town in a dream means that the people of knowledge in that locality are well
respected. Seeing a turtle living in a dump, then it represents a knowledgeable
person living in the midst of ignorant people who care little about learning
anythingfrom him. Eating a turtle in a dream means profits, benefits, or money.
If one sees a turtle inside his house, or if he owns one in a dream, it means that
he will benefit from the company of a learned person who is acquainted with
ancient manuscripts, or in interpreting ancient scrolls. Ifone sees a turtle lying
on its back in a dream, it means that there is a man of knowledge in that town
people do not recognize. If one sees a well kept and fed turtle sitting on a brocade
in the dream, it means that the people of that town honor their scholars.
However, a turtle in a dream also can be interpreted as deception, trickery,
spying, hiding, evil and acquisition of weapons.

Death
In a dream, death signifies religious failure, corruption and rising in status
in the world. This interpretation applies if one is carried on a bier or on a litter
and his funeral is accompanied with crying and lamentation except if he is
buried in the dream. If one witnesses his own burial in the dream, then it means
that his case is hopeless and that he will be seized by the world. One's followers
or assisting entourage will be as many as those who walk in his funeral in the
dream. However, he will conquer people and ride over their shoulders. If one dies
in his dream but does not have the look of dead people and there is no crying
over his death or a funeral in the dream, it means that one of his properties will
be torn down, or that a room in his house will collapse, or that a wall will cave
in, or it could mean that a pillar will breakdown. Such a dream also may signify
weakness in one's religious standing or blindness of his heart. Despite that, he
will live a long life. If one dies in a dream and finds himself looking like a dead
person, and if his body is washed and wrapped in a shroud, it also means
weakness in his religion. All the sorrow and crying one sees in this case,
represents his rising in rank and promotion in the world. Death in a dream also
signifies travels, or it could mean poverty. One's death and burial in his dream
also means that he will die short of repentance. If one comes out of his grave after
his burial in the dream, it means that he will repent for his sins before dying.
Death in a dream also signifies marriage, for a deceased person is washed and
perfumed, and a bridegroom also takes a bath and anoints himself with
perfumes on his wedding day. If one dies and is carried over people's shoulders,
though they do not bury him in the dream, it means that he will conquer his
enemy and should he qualify for leadership, he will attain it. To come back to
life after dying in a dream means that one will become rich and dispense with
poverty, or it could mean that he will repent for his sins. This dream also means
the safe home coming of a traveller. The death of an unknown woman in a dream
means absence of rain or dearth, and if she comes back to life in the dream, it
means rain. In general, the death of a woman in a dream means the death of a
child in wakefulness and vice-versa. If a deceased person tells someone in a
dream that he did not die, it means that he is blessed in the hereafter. Carrying
a deceased person in a dream means carrying the provisions or food supplies of
an irreligious and an ungodly person. Carrying a dead person in a different way
than one carries a deceased person to bury him in a dream means acquiring
unlawful money. Carrying a deceased person to bury him in a dream means
working for the governor.If one sees a deceased person sick in a dream, it means
that he is being questioned about forsaking his religious attendance during his
lifetime. If one sees the dwellers of the graveyards coming out of their grave to
eat people's harvest or food supplies in a dream, it means rising of food prices.
If he sees them drinking from the wells in a dream, it means that a great plague
will befall that town. If one sees a deceased person die, then if he walks in his
funeral in the dream, it means that someone among his children or in the family of that person will shortly die. If no crying or sorrow follows his death, then it
means that someone in his progeny will get married. What a deceased person
says about himself in a dream is true, for he has reached the abode of truth and
he can exercise no falsehood in that abode. If a deceased person tells something
in a dream, and if it does not take place, then it means that one is experiencing
confused dreams. If one sees a deceased person well dressed in a white or a green
garment, smiling and happy in a dream, it means that he is in that state one
witnessed in his dream. Otherwise, if one sees him disheveled, dirty, frowning
or crying in a dream, this also denotes his condition in the hereafter. If one sees
a deceased person sick in a dream, it means that his condition is contingent upon
the satisfaction of his debts and that he is awaiting the Divine justice to take
its course. Performing a funeral prayer for deceased people in a dream means
asking for forgiveness on their behalf or visiting their graves, or it could mean
admonishing someone with a dead heart, or it could mean bidding farewell to
traveling people or taking care of needy people. If one's wife dies and returns
back to life in a dream, it means making profits from a plantation or a farm.
Discovering a body of a deceased in a dream means finding money. Walking
behind a deceased person in a dream means following his footsteps or emulating
his trade or traditions, whether they be material or spiritual. If the Imam of the
country dies in a dream, it means destruction of that city by war. On the other
hand, if one sees a city in ruins in a dream, it means that the Imam has died.
If one sees that he is immortal in a dream, it means the nearing of his death.
Death in a dream also signifies being recalled to account for a major sin or a
crime. To die in a dream with no apparent reason or illness and to exhibit no
features of a dead person means longevity. To suffer from death-pangs in a
dream means being unjust to oneself or to others. To sees oneself dead and naked
in a dream means poverty. To see oneself dead and lying on a straw-mat or a
carpet in a dream means prosperity and success in the world. Ifone sees himself
dead lying on a litter in a dream, it means rising in rank. Ifhe is lying on a bed
in the dream, it means benefits from one's family. If one hears about the death
of an unknown person in a dream, it means a warning about his success in the
world at the expense of his religious compromises. If one's son dies in a dream,
it means that he will escape from an enemy. If one's daughter dies in a dream,
it means despair from relief. If one dies and gets buried in a dream, it means
his freedom. Otherwise, if he is entrusted with something, it means that he will
be required to deliver it back to its rightful owner. If one dies and gets buried
in a dream, it means that he will get married. If a sick person gets married in
a dream, it means that he will shortly die. If a married person dies and gets
buried in a dream, it means that he will divorce his wife or break a business
partnership or separates from his brothers, sisters and friends, or it could mean
that he may emigrate to another country. Otherwise, if he has already migrated
from his homeland, it means that he will return to it. Death in a dream has
positive connotation for someone in fear of something or a sad person or a sick
person. The death of one's brothers in a dream means the death of one's enemies,
or it could mean saving one's capital. Walking amidst dead people in a dream
means befriending some hypocrites. Walking in the company of a deceased
person in a dream means undertaking a long journey, or it could mean profits
from one's travels. Eating the flesh of a dead person in a dream means enjoying
a long life. If one discovers that he died suddenly in a dream, it means that he
will rejoice. If a deceased person eats something in a dream, it means that such
a commodity will become expensive. If one sees himself laying on a washing
table in a funeral home in a dream, it means that his sins will be washed away
and that his debts will be paid. If a deceased person asks someone to wash his
cloth in a dream, it means that he needs the prayers and forgiveness of the
person who saw him in his dream, or it could mean that one needs him to pay a debt he left behind or to ask people to forgive him his sins or to fulfill his will.
If one washes the deceased person's clothes in the dream, it means that the
deceased person will become free from his burdens in the hereafter. Transport-
ing dead people to the cemetery in a dream means that one is doing something
right. If he transports them to the marketplace in a dream, it means that he
needs something, or that his merchandise will be sold quickly. If one sees that
a deceased person has returned to life in a dream, it means that one will
recuperate something he considered it dead, or if he happens to be going through
difficulties, it means that his adversities will dissipate. If a deceased person
comes back to life in a dream, it also means that his progeny will benefit from
something he left. If he looks beautiful, happy and well dressed in the dream,
it means that such happiness will become the inheritance of his descendants.
If one sees a deceased person busy, worried and ill dressed in a dream, it means
that he is engaged in a struggle that can only subside by the will of God
Almighty. If he is sick in the dream, it means that he is answerable to God
Almighty for his religious negligence. If the deceased person's face looks dark
or opaque in the dream, it means that he died as an unbeliever. If one sees a
deceased person sprightly, pleasant and casual in a dream, it means that one's
dream is mere hallucination, or that he is experiencing disturbed dreams, for
dead people do not joke and have their own duties to respond to. If one's deceased
father or mother come back to life in a dream, it means relief from distress and
abolishing of his fears. This is particularly stronger when one's deceased mother
is seen in the dream. Resurrecting a deceased person in a dream means giving
guidance to an unbeliever or admonishing an innovator. This also could mean
admonishing heedless people who will repent for their sins. If one sees a
deceased person die again in a dream, it means that someone by the same name
will shortly die. If a deceased person complains about a migraine headache in
a dream, it means that he is being questioned about his religious negligence or
his injustices or his abominable attitude toward his father or mother. If the
deceased person complains about his eyes in the dream, it means that he is being
questioned about what he owes to his wife or about her dower or about a will
or a trust he wasted. If he complains about his left arm, it means that he is being
questioned about the rights of his brother, sister, son or business partner or a
false oath he made. If the deceased person complains about his side in a dream,
it means that he is being questioned about cutting off his relations or clan or
failing to fulfill his obligations toward his household. If he complains about his
legs in a dream, it means that he is being questioned about wasting his life in
corruption and falsehood. If he complains about his feet in the dream, it means
that he is being questioned about a wealth he spends in falsehood and on the
path of heedlessness he walked. A woman and a man in such dreams are the
same. Like that, each limb provides for a specific stand one took during his
lifetime in this world. (See Body'). If a living person gives a deceased person
something to eat or drink in a dream, it means loss of money. If he gives a
deceased person a garment in the dream, it means adversity or an illness. If a
deceased person gives the person seeing the dream his own shroud to wear in
a dream, it means his death. If a deceased person gives the person seeing the
dream a cloak or an adorned shirt in a dream, it means gaining what the
deceased person acquired of knowledge, wealth, blessings or status during his

lawful earnings from an unexpected source. If the deceased person gives him
honey in the dream, it means acquiring a booty. Anything one receives from a
deceased person in a dream means good news and a blessed gift in general. If
a deceased person takes one by the hand and walks with him in a dream, it
means receiving money from an unexpected source. Talking with deceased
114
people in a dream means longevity. Kissing a renowned person who had passed
away in a dream means acquiring something from his knowledge, wisdom or
inheritance, or it could mean receiving benefits from his descendants. Talking
to dead people in a dream means having ingratitude toward one's family or
friends. If a sick person sees himself kissing a deceased person in a dream, it
means that he will shortly die. If a healthy person sees that same dream, it
means that what he says is false. Having sexual intercourse with a deceased
person in his grave in a dream means committing adultery or mixing with an
evil person or losing money to a deceitful and a hypocritical person. If one sees
that a deceased woman has come back to life, and if he engages in sexual
intercourse with her, then finds his body spattered with her ova and semen in
a dream, it means that he has committed something which he regrets. Consequently he will suffer losses because of it. To have a wedding with a deceased
person and to move to his or her house in the dream means one's own death.
Walking behind a deceased person and entering an unknown house from which
one does not come out again in the dream means death. If one follows the
deceased person and does not enter such a house in the dream, it means that
he will near his death, then recuperate from his illness. If a deceased person
beats the person seeing the dream, it means that one has displeased his Lord
and has committed an abominable act from which he should repent, for in the
abode of truth, a deceased person accepts only what pleases God Almighty and
dislikes what He dislikes. If one sees a living person beating a deceased person
who is willingly submitting to his fate in a dream, it represents the spiritual and
religious strength and the rank of the living person, his charities, prayers,
devotion, piety, or it could mean that he is fulfilling the deceased person's will.
If one sees a deceased person asleep in a dream, it means that the hereafter is
the abode of rest and comfort for the believers. Sleeping in one bed with a
deceased person in a dream means longevity. If dead people come out of their
graves to sell merchandise in a dream, it means stagnation of the markets. A
dead mouse in one's food in a dream means tampering with that product. If one
sees a deceased person doing something good in a dream, it means that he is
ordering him to do the same. If it is a bad thing he is doing in the dream, it means

Listening
In a dream, listening to the Quran, or to the teachings of God’s Prophet,
upon whom be peace, or to words of wisdom, or to an admonition, or a discourse
of knowledge in a dream means receiving guidance, and it means turning
repentantly to God Almighty. Otherwise, if one sees himself listening to
backbiting, slandering, defamation, or eavesdropping in a dream, then it means
that some harm will befall him. Listening to good advice and following its best
guidance in a dream means receiving good news. Eavesdropping in a dream
means that one intends to defame the other person. Listening, though pretending
not to hear what is being said in a dream means that one makes it a habit to
lie. The sound of a crowd in a dream means money beside other benefits. The
bleating of sheep in a dream means distress and fear. The neighing of horses in

Psalms of David
In a dream, the Psalms of God’s prophet David (uwbp) represent
wailing, lamentation, crying, repentance, fear of wrongdoing, devotion, har¬
mony between people, unity, good luck, flute music and percussions, learning
about strange news, or earning one’s livelihood from reciting poems, or from
delivering sermons.
Interpreted by Ibn Sirin

Torah
Reciting the Torah but not recognizing what it is in a dream means that
one may become a fatalist. To own a copy of the Torah for a king or ruler in a
dream means that he will conquer a land or make peace with its people on his
terms. If he is learned in real life, it means that either his knowledge will
increase or that he will invent what is not ordained, or he may tend to lean
toward jovial company. Seeing the Torah in a dream also means finding what
is lost, welcoming a long awaited traveller, or it could represent someone who
follows the Jewish faith. As for an unmarried person, owning a Torah in a dream
means getting married to a woman from a different religion, or it could mean
marrying a woman without her parents’ consent. Seeing the Torah in a dream
also may mean extensive travels. If one’s wife is pregnant, it means that she will
bear a child who resembles his father. If one’s wife is pregnant, and if he sees
himself holding the Torah in a dream, it means that she will beget a daughter,
for the gender of the word Torah is feminine. It also means that he will mix with
evil companions. Similar interpretations are given to carrying other scriptures.
To see the Torah, or the Evangel, or the Gospel in a dream is as though one has
seen God’s Prophet Muhammad, upon whom be peace, because his name (uwbp)
is mentioned in all three of them. It could also mean betrayal, negating a
covenant, or desiring what is shoddy.

Plaster
Seeing plaster in any form in one’s dream means preserving one’s dignity,
holding to one’s status and position, or it could mean persevering in one’s goals.
Plaster in a dream also could be interpreted as having a good marriage, good
children, assiduity, concern for one’s religious duties, applying knowledge to
one’s words, ability to appreciate and to express one’s gratitude, recovering from
an illness, buying new clothing, or drafting a just agreement. Gypsum in a
dream has the same interpretation. If a renunciate or a pious person sees plaster
or gypsum in his dream, it becomes a proof of an unlawful or sullied substances
mixing with their earnings, or it could mean engaging in religious innovations,
neglecting to follow the prophetic example, or becoming a hypocrite. (Also see
Plasterer)

Air
Standing in the air in a dream means being honored or acknowledged by a
governor, though it will not last. If one has exaggerated hopes, arrogance, pride,
or if he is a self-centered individual, then his floating in the air represents mere
disturbed dreams. Walking in the air without ascending or descending in a
dream means receiving dignity, honor and earning lawful money. If one does not
qualify for it, then walking in the air in his dream means travels. Hanging in
the air between the heavens and the earth in a dream represents a concerned
heart and uncertainty about what to do! Falling in the air in a dream means
despair or loss of status in wakefulness. Falling in a dream also means relief
from distress, wantonness, or satisfying one’s needs. Clear, fresh and pure air
in a dream represents a good time to take a trip for business or pleasure. Air
in a dream also represents one’s desire and passion. Thus, disobeying one’s
mind, desire and passion in a dream means entering the heavenly paradise.
Following one’s desires in a dream means negligence of once religious duties.
Standing up in the air and speaking loud in a dream means blessings, favors,
money, honor and fame. Sitting in the air in a dream means arrogance and self-
deception regarding religious opinions. Building a house up in the air or placing
a mat in the air or raising a tent in the air means death of a sick person, and
what is built in this case is one’s own coffin. If a governor sees that dream, it
means his dismissal from his office or his death. Seeing that dream after a
wedding or after having marital relations with one’s wife means mistrust and
loss. It also means involvement in an uncouth action, lacking knowledge of the
Holy Book and prophetic traditions, because what one has built lacks a foun- dation. Flying in the air in a dream may mean travels. Flying with wings in a
dream has stronger connotations and is safer. The wings here will represent
money or power. Swimming in the air means benefits or business travels. If the
air looks opaque in one’s eyes, so he cannot see the skies in his dream, it means
problems with one’s superior. If one does not have a boss, then it means that he
may lose his sight. If all the people witnessed the air opaque or red in the dr earn,
then it means a major calamity and a trying adversity. (Also see Ascending in
the Skies; Flying)

Medina
Visiting the Holy city of Medina, the city of God’s Prophet, upon whom
be peace, in a dream means profits and blessings in this world. Standing at the
door of the Sacred Mosque in Medina, or in front of the Blessed Chamber of God’s
Prophet, upon whom be peace, in a dream means repenting from a sin and
acceptance of one’s repentance. Seeing the Holy city of Medina in a dream can
be interpreted in six ways to reflect peace, mercy, forgiveness, salvation, relief
from distress and enjoying a happy life. (Also see Masjid; Visiting holy sites)

Visiting the Prophet’s Mosque in Medina in a dream means

feeling safe, mixing with people of knowledge, associating with people of
religious ranks, joining the company of knowledge seekers, and developing

loving those who love his progeny. Visiting the Prophet’s Mosque in a dream also
means love, knowledge and guidance. Visiting Al-Aqsa Sacred Mosque in
Jerusalem in a dream means blessings, understanding the inner meaning of
important spiritual subjects and miraculous events, or reflecting upon the
Nocturnal Journey of God’s Messenger (uwbp), the night in which the eight
heavens were decorated to receive and honor him when he was called upon to
come before God Almighty. Visiting the grave of God’s Prophet Abraham, upon
whom be peace, in a dream means obedience to one’s parents, being true to them,
seeking their love, blessings and pleasure with sincerity and trueness with one’s
words and actions. Visiting holy sites in a dream also means seeking knowledge
and wisdom, having love for charitable people, associating with good people,
seeking to learn one’s religion at the hand of a pious teacher, to receive blessings
and benefits in this life and in the next. (Also see Muhammad, upon whom be
peace; Mecca; Medina)
