(Ablution; Ghusul: Ritual ablution; Wash) A ritual bath ( arb. Ghusul.
Islamic Law) is customarily performed on a festival day, or before the Friday
congregational prayers, before starting a pilgrimage, after recovering from an
illness, or is necessitated by the emission of sperms either during one’s sleep or
following a marital intercourse. A ritual ablution is also given to a deceased
person before his funeral and burial, or otherwise is taken by the undertaker
himself after washing the dead. To take a ritual ablution in a dream before the
Friday congregational prayers means purifying oneself, washing oneself from
sin, repenting from sin, serving one’s parents, or being true to one’s friends.
Taking a ritual ablution for any of the above reason during the wintertime and
using cold water in the dream means distress, trouble or a sickness. If hot water
is used, then it means profits, benefits and recovering from sickness. Taking a
ritual ablution in a dream before attending a festival means getting married.
Taking a ritual ablution after seeing either a solar or a lunar eclipses in a dream
means an adversity, and the same applies if one takes a ritual ablution in a
dream before the prayers of asking for rain. To take a ritual ablution after
washing a deceased person in a dream means abandoning one’s association with
heedless people. If the person who performs such an ablution is mentally
deranged, it means that he will wake-up cured from his condition. Taking a
ritual ablution prior to joining the sacred pilgrimage in a dream means
happiness, success, victory over one’s enemy, paying one’s debts, or reuniting
with one’s beloveds. Taking a ritual ablution before circumambulating the
sacred House in Mecca in a dream means working for one’s livelihood, serving
rich people, or caring for one’s wife and parents. If a sick person sees himself
taking a ritual ablution then putting on a new garment in a dream, it means that
he will soon recover from his illness. Taking a ritual ablution in a dream also
could mean the release of a prisoner, payment of one's debts, dispelling one’s
distress, or it could mean richness, prosperity, attending the sacred pilgrimage
in Mecca, or having a successful business. If one does not put a new garment
after taking his ritual ablution in the dream, it means that he will be able to
lighten his burdens, or recover his good health. Walking into a pond, or
descending a well, or stepping into a bathtub to take a bath in a dream means
marriage. Washing oneself with soap during such an ablution means dispensing
of one’s debts, or dispelling one’s stress. Washing one’s garment after taking a
Ghusul in a dream means correcting one’s conduct, pursuing the correct
religious life, paying one’s debts, or washing away one’s filth. If one sees a
deceased person washing himself before his burial in a dream, it means relief
for one’s dependents and increase of their wealth after him. Giving a ritual
ablution to a deceased person in a dream also means that someone will repent
for his sins at the hand of the undertaker. If a deceased person asks someone
to wash his clothes for him in a dream, it means that he needs someone to pray
for him, or to intercede on his behalf before his Lord, or to pay charity for the
benefit of his soul, or to pay his debts, or to fulfill his will, or to do him justice.
If one does fulfills the deceased person’s wish and washes his clothes for him in
the dream, it means the redemption of such a person. (Also see Ablution)

Mill
(Grinder; Press) In a dream, a mill represents a school, a courthouse, a
balance, justice, righteousness, benefits, blessings, money, food, charity, or
marriage. The millstone in a dream represents a wife and a husband. The flour
that issues from between the two grinding stones represents sperms or children.
A mill in a dream also means distress and adversities, uptightness, headache,
a rivulet, or a windmill. If one sees a mill grinding human beings in a dream,
it means loss of lives and adversities. If one sees a mill grinding something that
is not edible in a dream, it means drought and rising prices. If the amount of
flour coming from the mill is plentiful in the dream, it means lowering of prices,
or recovering from an illness. Grinding lupine seeds, henna seeds, potash,
saltwort, salsola kali, jojobe seeds or any seeds from the marsh mallow tree in
a dream means washing oneself from sin, overcoming difficulties, paying one’s
debts and recovering from an illness. (Also see Oil press; Press; Sugar mill)

Amber
(Musk; Spermaceti) To perfume or anoint oneself with amber in a dream
means increase in one’s earnings through a rich acquaintance or earning money
through a notable person or through a man of knowledge. Seeing a person
mixing amber in a dream denotes a praiseworthy person, an architect or a
builder. Anointing oneself with amber in a dream signifies hearing praises.
Amber in a dream also denotes valuable properties, farms, fruit gardens, or a
fellowship of knowledge and wisdom. The fragrance of amber in a dream means
a storm, wind, a breeze, or it could represent benefits coming from the direction
one recognizes in the dream. If one sees himself burning amber in a dream, it
means that he is indulging in religious innovations, corruption, losing face,
placing something in the wrong place, dealing with tainted money, bribing a
government official, lobbying for a selfish cause and supporting a political
campaign. (Also see Incense; Galia moschata; Perfumery)

Semen
(Sperm) In a dream, semen represents a growing and a lasting capital,
whether there is little or much of it. If one sees a drop of semen coming out of
his reproductive organs in a dream, it denotes money that will surface. If the
man’s semen spatters over his wife in the dream, it means that he will buy her
a new garment. Owning an earthenware jar filled with semen in a dream means
uncovering a hidden treasure, or becoming wealthy. If the husband is spattered
with the semen of his wife in a dream, it means that he will satisfy his desire
for her and attain his purpose. Drinking water from one’s own reproductive
organ in a dream means lustfulness. If the husband sees a thick yellowish fluid
flowing from his wife’s sexual organ in a dream, it means that she will give birth
to an unhealthy child. If a reddish fluid flows instead in the dream, it represents
a short lived child. If it comes out as a black fluid in the dream, it means that
such a child will grow to dominate the family and to be an unjust master of the
household. The ovum of a beautiful woman in a dream means happiness, wealth
and children. Semen in a dream also means attaining one’s goal, comfort, or
wasting one’s capital, divulging one’s secrets, or the death of a child. If a farmer
sees semen in his dream, it means that he will work on a barren land and make
it fertile. (Also see Impurity; Sexual intercourse; Vagina)

Pus
In a dream, pus means a continuous source of money. Puss-filled sore in a
dream represents the growing of one’s savings, a show of prosperity, a monthly
pay off to a band of criminals, or it could mean slander. Anything that runs from
one’s body such as puss, purulence, sperms, etcetera, in a dream means
unlawful money. If one sees pus coming out of a sore or a boil in a dream, then
it represents the male or the female sexual organs. (Also see Pimple)
Pushball: (See Ball)
