Spiritual gathering
(Admonition; Fellowship; Gathering; Meeting; Religious
meeting) If one who does not qualify to be a spiritual leader or a scholar sees
himself holding a religious gathering and admonishing people to do good and to
forbid evil in a dream, it means distress and an illness which he is praying hard
for it to be lifted by God’s leave. However, if he does speak wisdom during such
a spiritual gathering in his dream, it means praying hard to have one’s distress
and illness lifted by God’s leave. Consequently, and God willing, he will recover
from his illness and be able to dispel his adversities. His condition will change
from tightness to abundance. He will repay his debts and overcome his oppressors.
If one sees a spiritual gathering where God’s Name is glorified, the holy Quran
is read and wisdom is spoken in his dream, it means that such a place will be
established as a spiritual center or as a mosque. Such a place will also become
a center where spiritual leaders and governors will gather and speak. If love
songs of light nature are played during such a gathering in a dream, it means
that falsehood will overtake such a place. If one sees himself sitting in the center
stage, in the middle of learned people and religious scholars in a dream, it means
that he will receive a greater knowledge and honor in his life. A gathering that
involves a court case, or a marriage in a dream represents an unknown adversity
that will safely pass. Admonishing people in a public gathering in a dream
means that one’s command will be obeyed. Sitting in the center stage in a
spiritual gathering in a dream represents one’s station or rank, or it could
represent one’s wife, child, property, or personal secretary. Anything that
happens to such a gathering in the dream may reflect on any of them. (Also see

Imam
(arb. The person who leads prayers in a mosque; Guide; Leader; Ruler) If
one sees himself building a prison in a dream, it means that he will meet a
righteous man or an Imam who will guide him on the straight path. An Imam
in a dream also represents the spiritual leader of all Muslims. (Also see Five
times prayers; Pharaoh)

Army’s flag
(Banner; Flag) In a dream, the flag of an army represents a pious
man, a scholar, a religious doctor, a spiritual leader, an ascetic, or a rich and
a generous person who is an example to others. A red flag in a dream means war,
while a yellow flag means a plague. A green flag in a dream means a blessed
journey, while a white flag means rain. A black flag in a dream means drought
and doubt, or it could mean a rainstorm. Sighting the flag of an army in a dream
means finding one’s way or finding guidance. For a woman, seeing a flag in her
dream means getting married. (Also see Banner; Colors; Flag)

Olives
(Blessed tree) In a dream, olives represent money, pleasures, or one’s
prosperity. An olive tree in a dream represents a blessed man who benefits his
family, a chaste woman, or it could mean a son who may become a governor. A
yellow olive in a dream represents heavy concerns about one’s religious life. If one
presses olives for oil in a dream, it means that he will earn blessings and benefits.
If one sees himself watering an olive tree with olive oil in a dream, it means that
he sleeps with his mother. The same interpretation applies if one sees himself
watering a garden with vinegar. If one buys an olive tree, or eats from one, or
drinks from its oil in a dream, it means blessings, or that he will marry a noble
and a chaste woman. Seeing the leaves of an olive tree in a dream means following
the straight path, or fulfilling one’s spiritual obligations, guidance, light, reading
the Quran, comforting someone’s heart, making money for a poor person, except
if one eats the olive raw in the dream, then it means the opposite, or it implies
poverty, indebtedness, or it could denote the place, or the direction it comes from.
The leaves of an olive tree represent righteous people or spiritual leaders. The
fruit of an olive tree represents easy money, or living a rich and a happy life.
Selecting olives or pressing them for oil in a dream means toiling, or hardships.
As for a sick person, olives in a dream mean regaining strength and recovering
from his illness. The fruit itself and the leaves also denote assiduousness and
resoluteness, however, olives in a dream also denote slow growing. (Also see Oil)

Papers
(Books; Credentials; Letter; Newspaper; Records; Revelations; Scrolls;
Studies) Papers in a dream represent witnesses, guidance, spiritual leaders,
knowledge, warnings, or glad tidings. Holding papers in a dream means glad
tidings and celebration. If a woman hands someone a piece of paper in a dream,
then one may expect good news to arrive from one moment to another. If the
woman who hands him the paper covers herself with a veil in the dream, it
means that he should be careful. Carrying a folded piece of paper in a dream
means that one may have an accident that could be the cause of his death. If one
sees himself carrying a paper in his left hand in a dream, it means that he regrets
something he did. Writing a paper with the left hand in a dream means writing
poem, or committing abominable actions, or that one will beget a son from
adultery. If a God fearing person sees himself looking at a paper written in a
language he cannot decipher in a dream, it means that he will face humiliation
or suffer from distress. If one is offered a wrapping paper and he finds a newborn
baby wrapped inside it in a dream, it means that he will hire a servant with some
strings attached to his employment. If one is given a newspaper, or a document
but does not care to read it in his dream, it means that he may receive an
inheritance. If one reads the title page of a newspaper in a dream, it also means
that he may receive an inheritance. If he quickly browses through it in his
dream, then it means debts. To see one’s records of the Day of Judgment open
before his own eyes in a dream, it denotes his faith, certitude, lack of doubt and
true belief in what God’s Messenger, upon whom be peace, brought from his
Lord. (Also see Book; Letter; Paper; Reference book; Write; Writing)
