Reckoning
(Day of Reckoning; Doomsday; Resurrection) Seeing the reckoning of
a deceased person in a dream denotes his sufferings in the hereafter. If a
traveller is asked to account for his travel expenses, and if he is treated with
kindness during the reading of his report in the dream, it means profits from
his journey and a safe return to his homeland. If one reckons himself in a dream,
it means that he will repent for his sins. If one is brought for judgment on the
day of reckoning, and if his questioning is made easy in the dream, it means that
God has blessed him to marry a pious wife who has love and compassion for him,
and who cares about his interests. If his questioning is strict and detailed in the
dream, it means that he will incur losses. If a person sees himself questioned,
probed and investigated in a court by people he does not recognize in the dream,
it means that he has strayed into innovation, and that he will remain accountable
for his actions. If he sees them well dressed and fragrant, congratulating him
and greeting him with the salutation of peace: “As-Salamu Alaikum", then it
is an indication of his righteousness and good deeds. (Also see Intercession; Reading;
Resurrection)

Tomcat
(Book of records; Cat; Reckoning; Siamese cat; Thief) In a dream, a tomcat
means a thief or a servant. A cat in a dream also represents an evil and a
treacherous woman. The same interpretation is given for anyone who compasses
people, or guards them, or someone who harms the interests of his employer
more than he benefits him. If a tomcat scratches someone or bites him in a
dream, it means that he will fall sick for a full year. The bite of a wildcat in a
dream is more dangerous and has greater implications. If one sees a tomcat
sitting peacefully and quietly in his house in a dream, it means that he will have
a comfortable, peaceful and a profitable year. Otherwise, a large wildcat in the
dream represents a troublesome year. Selling a tomcat in a dream means
spending one’s money in various charities. Eating a cat in a dream means
learning about sorcery. If one sees himself transformed into a tomcat in a dream,
it means that he lives from stealing and seeks what is harmful. A tomcat
entering one’s house in a dream represents a robber. Whatever a tomcat takes
from one’s house in the dream will be looted by such a thief. Killing or beating
a tomcat in a dream means catching a thief or killing him. If one extracts fat from
a cat in a dream, it means that he will receive stolen money or a share thereof.
Fighting with a tomcat in a dream means an affliction with a long and a
debilitating illness that will be followed by a complete recovery. If the tomcat
loses the fight, and if the man is already sick, it means that he will recover from
his illness shortly thereafter. Otherwise, if he loses in the dream, it means that
his illness has reached its peak. A cat or a tomcat in a dream also represent
reckoning, estrangement of one’s wife, her roughness with her husband, or they
could represent ill behaved children with their parents, fights, theft, adultery,
lack of loyalty, eavesdropping, taunting, roaring, clamor, a bastard son, a
foundling or an orphan. On the other hand, a cat in a dream could represent a
toadying person, dancing, being playful and kind, though awaiting to jump at
the first opportunity to spoil others’ peace. If the cat, the tomcat and the mouse,
or the lamb and the wolf become friends in the dream, it means hypocrisy,
affectation and loss of moral standards. A civet cat in a dream represents a man
who may have a suspicious look, though his character and conduct are exem¬
plary. (Also see Cat)

Five times prayers
(Communication; Communion; Invocations; Prayers; arb. Salat)
To see oneself performing one’s obligatory prayers (arb. Fardh ) in a dream means
receiving a high ranking appointment, spiritual advancement, leadership,
presiding over people, delivering a message, performing a duty, paying dues,
turning over one’s trust or satisfying obligatory deeds and enjoying peace. If one
sees himself in a dream performing one of the five obligatory prayers on time,
having performed the proper ablution and correctly completed its obeisance of
the proper standing, bowing and prostrating postures, standing with reverence
and piety and facing the Ka‘aba, it means that he will perform a religious duty
or attend the annual pilgrimage in Mecca. It also means that he will extricate
himself from an unjust deed he fell into and repent, or it could mean eschewing
evil. Performing the divinely ordained prayers in dream also means loyalty to
one’s promise, employment for a person who could not find a job, or reconcili¬
ation with a long forsaken friend or relative. If one leads the prayers in his
dream, it means that he will guarantee something to someone, or it could means
that he will borrow money for a term. If one prays behind an Imam in the dream,
it means that he will become a burden to others. The midday prayers known in
Arabic as Zuhur signify a manifestation, a proclamation or exposing what is
hidden. Praying Zuhur in a dream means attaining one’s goal, satisfying every
need, obtaining everything one has asked for from earthly gains in this world,
or it could mean spiritual benefits in the hereafter and particularly if one sees
himself completing his prayers in the dream. Completing one’s prayers means
achieving one’s goal. If one is incarcerated because of a debt and sees himself
completing his Zuhur prayers in a dream, it means that someone will pay his
debt for him and gets him released from prison and he will then prosper. If one
sees himself performing his Zuhur prayers in a clear day and feels happy about
it in his dream, it means that he will engage in some work that will make him
famous and that he will enjoy the fruits of his work as much as he did in that
clear and beautiful day in his dream. If one performs his midday Zuhur prayers
in a cloudy day in a dream, it means that his work will be distressful. As for the
mid-afternoon prayers, known in Arabic as Asr, performing it in a dream means
taking a vow or making a promise. This prayer in a dream also represents one’s
liability. If one sees himself performing the ‘Asr prayers in a dream, it means
that what he is asking for will materialize, though after some hardships and
adversities. If one does not complete his ‘Asr prayers in a dream, it means that
what he is asking for may not take place. If one sees himself performing the
sunset prayers, known in Arabic as Maghrib in a dream, it means that what he

dream, it means that he will get what his heart desires. As for the night prayer,
known in Arabic as ‘Isha. If one sees himself performing his ‘Isha prayers in a
dream, it means that he will complete his work and get what he wants, or it could
mean the end of his life, following which, one u su ally attends to his resting time,
which is similar to death. If one sees himself performing the daybreak prayers
before dawn in a dream, it means that the morning has come and it will be soon
before he hears either good or bad news. On another level, if one sees himself
praying the evening ‘Isha prayers in a dream, it means that he is committed to
attend to his family’s needs as commanded by God Almighty, such as providing
for their food, clothing, shelter and teachings. If one sees himself praying in the
middle of the night (arb. Witter) in a dream, it means that he does attend to his
family’s needs and perhaps they feel comfort in his presence. If one sees himself
performing the dawn Fajr prayers in a dream, it means that he will start with
the inevitable, such as working to provide for his family. If one sees himself
performing the midday Zuhur prayers at the time of the mid-afternoon prayers
in a dream, it means that he will repay his debts. If one’s midday Zuhur prayers
or his mid-afternoon ‘Asr prayers are interrupted in the dream, it means that
he will pay half of what he owes. If one sees himself performing the mid¬
afternoon prayers in a dream, it means that his job will shortly be completed and
only little work is left for him to finish. Praying the sunset Maghrib prayers in
a dream means finishing one’s duties and it is time for him to take a rest. The
night ‘Isha prayers in a dream means veiling things or entering the privacy of
one’s home. On a third level, the midday guhur prayers mean repentance, dis¬
missal or abrogation of laws. The midday Zuhur prayers also could mean
struggling against Satan and one’s enemies, which struggle takes place usually
at the time of one’s midday nap. The mid-afternoon ‘Asr prayers in a dream also
represents victory in one’s life, or it could mean guidance, blessings and
observing God’s laws. The sunset Maghrib prayers in a dream means losing a
parent, the passing away of one’s guardian, the death of a close friend or the
impeachment of the person the dream indicate. Seeing oneself praying the night
‘Isha prayers in a dream means preparing for a journey, or it could mean
marriage, moving from one place into another, or it could mean suffering from
cataract, weakness of one’s vision, or it could denote the vastness of what is to
come, for ‘Isha prayers are distant from the dawn Fajr prayers. Performing the
dawn Fajr prayers in a dream indicates a vow one pledges. Praying the mid¬
afternoon ‘Asr prayers in a dream means attaining ease after suffering from
hardships. Performing the sunset Maghrib prayers in a dream means having
crossed something that will come back later, and performing the night ‘Isha prayers
in a dream means deception and a tricks. If one sees himself performing the
Friday congregational prayers in a dream, it means that he will attain what he
is hoping for. If one sees himself praying inside a garden in a dream, it means

he is struck with fear, or that he may face a fight. If one sees himself performing
the obligatory (arb. Fardh) prayers shortened to two groupings of prostrations
(arb. Rakat) in a dream, it means travels. If one sees himself praying while
eating honey in a dream, it means that he may engage in sexual intercourse with
his wife during the fasting hours. If a woman sees herself performing the
obligatory (arb. Fardh) prayers shortened to two grouping of prostrations in a
dream, it means that she will have her monthly menstrual period on that day.
If one discovers that he has missed the time of the prescribed prayer and could
not find a place or time to perform it in his dream, it means that he will face
difficulties finishing something or paying a debt or satisfy a worldly goal. If one
intentionally neglects to do an obligatory prayer, or if he plans to do the m la ter
(arb. Qada’) in the dream, it means that he takes his religious commitment
lightly and hopes to correct his attitude at a later time. Performing the Friday
congregational prayers in a dream is a sign of happiness, joy, festivities,
celebrations, the pilgrimage season, abstaining from borrowing money for one’s
accessories or luxuries. Performing the festival prayers (arb. Eid) at the end of

in public. In a dream, when performing one’s prayers, if one reads loud when
he should read inwardly, or if he reads inwardly when he is supposed to invoke
outwardly, and if he is called upon to judge between people, it means that his
judgment will be wrong or that he may follow his own mind, or it could mean
affectation, falsehood, hypocrisy, hiding the truth or unjustly confiscating
someone’s money. If one changes the order of the ritual prayers in a dream, it
means that he disobeys his parents or objects to someone he is supposed to hear
and obey, or perhaps he will be afflicted with forgetfulness or staying-up
sleepless nights, or it could mean that he lacks intelligence, or that he is unable
to memorise or remember things. Performing the late night prayers, (arb.

or oft-distracted during prayers. If one sees himself leading the funeral prayers
in a dream, and then after completinghis prayers intercedes exaggeratedly with
special invocations on behalf of the deceased in a dream, it means that he will

prayers {arb. Sunnah) following the leading example of God’s messenger, upon

and good qualities. If one sees himself performing extra supererogatory prayers
in a dream, it means that he cares about the success of his life in the hereafter,
and that he shall enjoy the fruit of his devotion both in this world and in the

a dream means taking care of the family needs and bringing comfort to their
hearts. During a congregational prayer, if the rows are straight in the dream,
it means that such people are in a constant state of celebrating God’s praises.
Supererogatory prayers in a dream also mean striving for unity with one’s
community, love for one’s brethren and constantly trying to serve and please
them with deeds, money, moral and financial support. If the person seeing the

If the one performing such a special prayer is known to follow the guidance of
a spiritual teacher or shaikh, then his dream means lowering of his spiritual
status, for a true seeker has no questions. Performing a special prayer for the
safe return of a traveller in a dream (arb. Ghaib) means asking for suitable

special prayer over the grave of a deceased in a dream means offering special

any supererogatory prayer, whether during the day or the night in a dream
means performing a good deed that brings someone closer to his Lord, or
reconciling adversaries, or fostering love between people. If one sees himself
laughing during his prayers in a dream, it means that he oft-forgets his prayers
and that he is delinquent about performing them properly and on time. If one
sees himself praying while drunk in a dream, it means that he will give a false
testimony in court. If one sees himself praying without the required ablution in
a dream, it means that his religious performance is worthless and that his
adherence is despicable. If one sees himself standing in prayers toward the
wrong direction in a dream, it means that he does the opposite of what he is
required to do, or that he acts the opposite of what God Almighty has ordained.
If one sees himself turning his back toward God’s House in a dream, it means
that he is an apostate who rejects God’s religion or that he does not care about
it. If one sees the people in the mosque facing another direction in his dream,
it means that their leader or judge will be dismissed from his office, or that he
neglects to follow the prescribed rules of his religion, or that he follows his own
mind and desire in making religious interpretations. However, performing one’s
prayers and turning with helplessness toward any direction and crying for help
in a dream means seeking God’s nearness, or asking to be accepted by other
believers for an unacceptable indulgence or a non-permissible opinion, or it
could mean travelling in the direction he faced in his dream. If one sees himself
praying eastward or westward and beyond the point of God’s House in Mecca
in a dream, it means that he is a despicable person who is full of arrogance, who
backbites and slanders others and who is daring to indulge in sin and disobedience
to his Lord. If one could not find the direction of the Ka‘aba in his dream, it means
that he has doubt about his faith. However, if one sees himself facing the holy
Ka‘aba in the dream, it means that he is walking on the straight path. If one sees
himself wearing a white garb and reading the Quran in the dream, it means that
he will join the caravan of pilgrims to Mecca. God knows best. (Also see Death;
Imam; Pharaoh)

Resurrection
(Day of Reckoning; Day of Resurrection; Last Day; Reckoning;
Rising of the dead; Trumpet of Resurrection) Seeing the Day of Resurrection,
or Doomsday in a dream is a serious warning for a sinner, or it could represent
a warning for someone who is contemplating a sinful act. Seeing the Day of
Resurrection in a dream also denotes justice. Beingthe only person resurrected
on such a day means one’s death. Standing up awaiting one’s judgement on the
Day of Resurrection in a dream means travels. If one sees himself and his wife
being the only people who are brought for judgement of the grand Day of
Gathering in a dream, it means that he is being unjust. If a warrior sees the Day
of Resurrection in a dream, it means that by God’s decree, the aggressor shall
be defeated. The land of the grand gathering in a dream represents a chaste
woman or a noble man. The blowing of the Trumpet of Resurrection in a dream
represents the salvation of the righteous ones. Seeing any of the great ex¬
traordinary events or signs that shall precede the Day of resurrection in a dream
means glad tidings for a believer who does good, and a warning for a disbeliever
to correct himself and repent for his sins before its coming. Seeing the Day of
Resurrection in a dream also denotes that some of the major signs are actually
taking place, such as blood shedding, spread of evil, belligerence of atheism,
pride about wealth, ruling of the working class, building high rises, the end of
the era of kings on earth, or it could remind the person of the prophesied signs,
such as the rising of the sun from the West, the emergence of a beast that will
speak with a human tongue, the rising of the Imposter (arb. Dajjal. Antichrist),
etcetera. Seeing the Day of Resurrection in a dream also represents the spread
of evil, the presence of an extended police force, and the ruling of large armies
and dictatorships around the world. Thus, seeing the Day of Resurrection in a
dream is a reminder and a warning to the one who sees it. If one sees the graves
splitting open, dead people resurrected back to life and are walking out of them
accompanied with their angels in a dream, it means that justice will prevail in
that land. If one experiences the resurrection in a dream, then discovers that
the world went back to continue its prior course , it means that justice will
dominate that land for a while, then it will be followed by a tyranny that will
be carried by people who are not even suspected to be of such character. Such
a dream also could be interpreted to suit a person who is seeking the impossible,
or one who is adamant at pursuing the path of wrongdoing, falsehood and lies.
Recognizing the eminent final signs of the Day of Reckoning in a dream means
that one is unaware of his heedlessness and such dream constitutes a warning.
If one’s reckoning is easy in a dream, it denotes his wife’s piety, compassion and
love for him. If one’s reckoning is detailed and painful in a dream, then it
represents major losses. If one’s good deeds weigh heavier than his bad deeds
in the dream, it means that his devotion is true and that his reward will be
greater. If one sees himself carrying the scale to weigh his own deeds in a dream,
it denotes his righteousness and correctness. If one sees an angel handing him
his records and telling him to read his own book in the dream, it also means that
he is on the right path. Walking on the bridge of the Day of Judgment, carrying
one’s own records and crying in a dream means that one is praying for God’s
forgiveness and to ease his reckoning. If one sees the Doomsday in a dream, it
means that he will escape from dangerous enemies, or that perhaps a major trial
will befall the dwellers of that place. If one crosses the Bridge of Judgement in
a dream, it means that he will escape a major trial, or perhaps it could represent
a major hurdle one may have to cross in this life. If one sees himself carrying
his book of records in his right hand in a dream, it means that he will win
righteousness, wealth and honor. If one sees himself carrying his book of records
in his left hand in a dream, it means that he will fall into sin and the consequent
poverty and need of others, for wealth and adultery do not mix. If one witnesses
the emergence of the Imposter ( Antichrist ) in a dream, it signifies new trends,
innovations and masses straying from the straight path. (Also see Intercession;
Reckoning; Rising of the dead; Trumpet of Resurrection)

Travels
(Hotel; Inn; Millstone; World) In a dream, travels mean discovering
people’s substance or character. If a poor person sees himself travelling in a
dream, it means that he will become rich. If one hosts travellers in a dream, it
means that he may receive news from that direction. Travelling in a dream also
means changing condition, state, environment, or that one may have to wash
the floor of a house, or change his employer, repent for his sin, or satisfy what
his heart desires. Travelling on foot in a dream means owing a debt that is
weighing heavy in one’s heart. Moving out of an unknown house in a dream
means travelling. If a sick person sees himself travelling from one land into
another that he could not recognize in his dream, it means his death. If a
traveller sees himself carrying a food basket in a dream, it means that he will
take a positive look at things, or that he will make a practical move that will
benefit him and his family. (Also see Reckoning; Saddle-mount; Stairway; Tent)

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)

Accountability
In a dream, accountability has various levels of interpretations.
If an employee sees that he has received his account promptly in a dream it
means rising in rank and increase of one’s income. If one sees himself under a
strict supervision or reckoning in a dream, it means humiliation, distress or
perhaps loss of his job. If a person is investigated in a court of people he does not know in a dream, it means that he has strayed into innovation and will
remain accountable for his deeds. (Also see Reckoning)

Reading
Reading the front page of a letter, a paper, or a book in a dream means
receiving an inheritance. Reading the last page, or the back cover of a book in
a dream means indebtedness. Reading a book in a dream also means receiving
an inheritance. If one finds himself as a lettered person and if he reads well in
his dream, it means that he will attain a high ranking job. If one sees himself
reading his book of records in a dream, it means that he will repent for his sins.
Reading a book in another language in a dream means travelling to such a
country, or going to places one is not familiar with and performing a job that will
earn him fame. If one sees himself reading a book in a foreign language and is
unable to properly decipher its words in a dream, it means that he will escape
from a potential danger he could face in such a land, or it could mean falling sick
in a foreign country, then recovering from one’s illness before returning to one’s
homeland. (Also see Language; Quranic recital; Reckoning)

Quranic recital
Reading the holy Quran or part of it in a dream means rising in
station, gaining power, repenting from sins, prosperity, paying one’s debts,
witnessing the truth, or delivering a trust to its rightful owner. Recitingthe holy
Quran with a beautiful voice in a dream means honor, dignity and good fame.
Reading the holy Quran and adding one’s own words to it in a dream means
wavering from the truth, or betraying one’s promise or covenant. If in the latter
case one does not understand the meaning of what he is saying in the dream,
it means that he will give a false testimony in a court of justice, or that he will
be involved in something evil the consequences of which cannot be foreseen. If
one sees people listening to his recital of the Quran in a dream, it means that
he will command a job, and that people will follow his instructions. Hearing, or
reading any Quranic chapter which is customarily read for a deceased person
in a dream, signifies the death of a sick person in that family. Professional
Quran readers in a dream represent the leading people of the society. To hear
a professional Quranic recital in a dream means that people in authority will
soon gather in the place where the recital is seen in one’s dream. If one sees
himself reading his book of records on the Day of Judgment in a dream, and if
he is an unlettered person in wakefulness, it means that he will become rich
after having suffered from poverty, and that he will answer all the questions
he will be asked on the Day of Reckoning, or that he will be protected by God
Almighty from what he fears most. This happens if one’s reading of his own
records is positive, but if it reads his sins and pitfalls in the dream, then it
denotes distress, trouble, or sufferings. (Also see Holy Book; Reading)
