religious attendance, release of a prisoner, arrival of a traveller, recovery of a
sick person, marriage of an unwed person, guidance, repentance, learning the
Quran, buying new clothing for one’s children, having a loyal servant, or

sweets in a dream means self-conceit, lies, or it could mean extollment, or
speaking nice words. Eating sweets in a dream also means suffering from cold
symptoms. Though, eating fermented sweets or preserves in a dream may
represent a cure. If a sweet is made from the basic four ingredients (i.e., honey,

happiness, longevity, or escaping from the consequences of a dangerous busi¬
ness one ventures in with greed. As for a believer, eating sweets in a dream

dream, it means changing a spouse or a job. If one cookes a tasty meal in a dream,
it means attaining a high ranking job, or it could mean prospering after
suffering from a painful poverty. If someone else cooks one’s meal in the dream,
it means dealing with a treachrous person and in this case, it means that one
should fear for his life or about doing business with him, or it could mean that
he may receive a helping hand in doing his job. If one eats an unbearably hot
food in a dream, it means adversities. If one finds his mouth filled with food, and
if there is still a cavity for more food in the dream, it means confusion, or it could
represent the balance of his life in this world. If one manages to grind and
swallow the food in his mouth in a dream, it means that he will overcome his
difficulties. Receiving a sour or a bitter tasting food from someone in a dream
means hearing harsh words, and the same interpretation is given if one offers
someone sour or bitter food in a dream. If he eats it, then it means sorrow,
sadness and distress. If one finds himself eating it patiently and thanks God
Almighty for it in the dream, it means that he will escape from such dangers.
