Thief
(Assassin; Illness; Robber) In a dream, a thief represents an illness,
deficiency in one’s character, or a physical ailment. If the thief is a black man,
it means that the illness relates to one’s black bile. If the color of his skin is red,
then it relates to one’s blood. If the color of his skin is yellow, then it relates to
his galls. If the color of his skin is white, then it relates to his chest and phlegm.
Whatever a thief takes in the dream should be interpreted in relation to the
substance of what he took. If he takes nothing from one’s house, then it denotes
a passing ailment. If one catches the thief, or holds to his shirt in the dream,
it means that he knows the cure. A thief in a dream also represents an assassin,
the angel of death, a visitor, or someone asking for marriage. If there is a sick
person in the house and a thief enters that house in a dream, it means the death
of the ailing person. If a thief comes to one’s house and takes nothing from it in
a dream, it means the recovery of sick person from his illness. A thief in a dream
also can be interpreted to represent a cunning person, a deceiver, an adulterer,
a hunter, a backbiter, someone who asks for things that do not belong to him,
a lion, a snake, a Satan, eavesdropping, or one’s mind, desire and passions. If
a scholar sees a thief in his dream, it means that he will learn wisdom from an
anecdote. A thief in a dream also represents a liar, or the humiliation inflicted
upon such a person. (Also see Crocodile; Illness; Robbery)

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,

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)

(Burglary; Garding; Possessing) In a dream, a robbery means adultery

Death. If the thief is known to the owner of the house, it means that he will
benefit from his knowledge, his trade, a good word of wisdom, or from someone’s
advice. If an unknown thief enters one’s house and steals his washing basin, or
his blanket, or a feminine item, or a similar house item in a dream, it may mean
the death of one’s wife, or of a woman in his immediate family. If a known thief
robs someone of his money in a dream, it means that he slanders him. If it is

or coarse sound represents sorrow and distress while any pleasant sound in a

(Celestial beings; Heavenly beings) If one sees the heavenly angels (arb.

Almighty has forgiven that person his sins and endowed him with patience,

heavens to the earth in a dream means enfeeblement of those who have doubt,
and strength for those who have faith and certitude. If one sees the angels

him in a dream, it means that he will beget a blessed son who will grow to be

secrets she maybe hiding. However, for a learned man, pregnancy in a dream

sees her self pregnant in a dream, it means a bad harvest for that year, or it could
mean a robbery in her neighborhood. If an unmarried woman or a young virgin
sees herself pregnant in a dream, it means that she will find a compatible
husband. Pregnancy in a dream has many meanings. In a dream, woman’s
pregnancy means wealth, and man’s pregnancy means pain and sorrow. However,
generally speaking, pregnancy in a dream also could mean prosperity and
material success. The extent of wealth is measured by the number of months of
such pregnancy and the size of one’s growth in the dream. This is true whether
it is a man or a woman in the dream. If a young boy who is under the age of
puberty sees himself pregnant in a dream, it represents his father, and if a young
girl who is under the age of menstruation sees herself pregnant, then it
represents her mother. If a man sees his wife pregnant in a dream, it reflects
his desire for material success. If one sees his pregnant wife delivering a baby
boy in a dream, it means that she will give birth to a girl and the opposite maybe
true, except if it is common for the person in the dream to experience in
wakefulness what he sees in his dream. If one sees himself delivering a baby
from his mouth in a dream, it means his death, or it could mean that he will use
poised and pleasant words in a conversation with someone he is careful not to
offend. If a man gives birth to a baby boy in a dream, it means that he will carry
a heavy burden then escape from it, or it could mean that he will vanquish his
enemy, or it could mean that he may escape from a treacherous woman. If a
pregnant woman sees herself delivering a child in a dream though having not

a dream, it means that she is negligent of her religious obligations. If a sick
person sees himself riding an ox, or a swine in a dream, it means his death. A
feverish illness in a dream means pressure caused by a ruler. Feeling sick, or
feeling down with an undiagnosed illness in a dream means spending money,

from an illness in a dream, it means his death. If one sees the entire city
suffering from an illness in a dream, it means a war, or a siege. If one sees
himself ill in a dream, it also means victory over his enemy and enjoying a happy
life. Otherwise, seeing anyone suffering from an illness in a dream means lack

sees himself ill and desiring something in his dream, it means that his business
deal will not fall through, for physicians mostly do not grant their patients their
wishes. If a bedridden person sees himself freeing a slave from bondage in a
dream, it means his death, for a dead person has no property. Seeing a friend
sick in a dream means that one will suffer from the same illness. Illness in a
dream also signifies spending money, repentance, prayers, supplications, im¬
ploring, while falling in love in a dream means a sickness. Seeing two of one’s
children sick in a dream means that one may suffer from trachoma or ophthalmia,

Charity
(Detergent; Discards; Filth; Loan; Tithe) Charity in a dream means
repelling calamities, recovering from illness, profits or truthfulness. This is also
true when it comes to earning one’s money lawfully, but if one gives a dead
animal or alcohol or a stolen or mismanaged money in charity, then his charity
is not acceptable and it means that he will pursue evil and indulge in sin. If a
farmer who is having a bad harvest sees himself giving some of what he plants
in charity in a dream, it means that his crop will increase and his produce will
be blessed. If one donates his charities to a rich person in a dream, it means that
he may suffer from tight financial circumstances, or that he may come to be in
need of such a person. If one gives a charitable donation to a prostitute in a
dream, it means that she will repent of her sin. If he gives a charity to a thief
in a dream, it means that the thief will cease his profession. Charity in a dream
also could mean suppressing the envy or spite of one’s rivals or subdue the
jealousy of one’s enemy, averting his dislikes, or suppressing evil in general. If
an angry person sees himself secretly distributing charity in a dream, it means
that God Almighty has forgiven him his sin of anger. Giving charity in secret
in one’s dream also could mean seeking the friendship of people in authority, or
to join the circles of people of knowledge. If a man of knowledge is asked to give
money in charity, and if he complies in his dream, it means that he will expound
his knowledge to others. If he is a merchant, it means that he will benefit others
with his business or teache them his trade. If he is a craftsman, he will teach
people his craft. If one who is under pressures, or if one is scared of something

means that one’s fears and stress will be dispelled. Charity in a dream also
denotes celebrating God’s praises, devotion, visiting the graveyards and doing
good. To spend money on God’s path in a dream means that one will surely
receive money in wakefulness. (Also see Alms tax; Endowment; Good deeds;

(Giving birth) Seeing one’s wife giving birth to a son in a dream when
in fact she is not pregnant means wealth. If a pregnant woman sees herself
giving birth to a girl in a dream, it means a boy, and if she gives birth to a boy
in the dream, it means a girl. Giving birth to a girl means relief from distress,
while giving birth to a boy in the dream means distress and worries. If a sick
person sees his mother giving birth to him in a dream, it means the approach
of his death, for a deceased person is wrapped in a shroud, while a newborn is
wrapped with a receiving cloth. If the person in question is poor, it means that
his financial conditions will change for the better, but if he is rich, it means
restriction of his earnings, for a child is dependent on others while his move¬

Musk
In a dream, musk represents a private charity, pregnancy, a profitable
business, a valuable property, a farm, fruit trees, olive trees, or advanced
knowledge. When associated with a deceased person, musk in a dream may
mean that he is in paradise. If musk is burned as incense in a dream, it means
innovation, loss of money and respect, putting things in the wrong place, or
serving a strong person for a fee. In a dream, musk also represents one’s beloved,
his servant, his son or a beautiful woman. If a thief sees himself carrying musk
in a dream, it means that he will cease robbing people, for a sweet fragrance
points to its carrier and exposes what he hides. Musk in a dream also means
money, gold, comfort, glad tidings, good news, or innocence. The same inter¬
pretation is given to carnation, clove, nutmeg and other dark seeds, all of which
mean triumph and happiness. Grinding them in a dream means receiving
praises. Offering them whole in a dream means doing good to an ungrateful
person. (Also see Amber; Anoint; Galia moschata)
