Tithe collector
(Atonement; Penance) In a dream, a tithe collector represents
someone who interferes in people’s business. Seeing the tithe collector in a
dream also denotes adversities, calamities, heavy losses, disasters, or trials that
befall a believer to direct him to repent, to wash his heart from impurities, and
to free him from the burdens of his sins. (Also see Atonement)

Porter
(Carrier; Carrying weight; Burdens; Forbearance; Serving others) In a
dream, a porter or a carrier represents a school bus driver who is entrusted with
bringing the children to school, then taking them back home. Whatever appear¬
ance he shows in the dream, it will indicate the mental state of the school bus
driver. A porter in a dream also represents someone who is carrying his own sins
and burdens. To see oneself as a porter in a dream means doing penance. If a
porter enters before a sick person in a dream, it means recovering from an
illness. (Also see Tithe collector)

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
sees himself feeding a beggar who is undergoing his own trials in a dream, it
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;
Loan)

Atonement
(Expiation; Penance; Requital) Atonement, distribution of gifts or
charities as penance for one’s sins in a dream means payment of one’s debts,
delivering a trust to its rightful owner, paying a fine or reciprocating an
invitation. (Also see Tithe collector)
Interpreted by Ibn Sirin
Grass
(Lawn) In a dream, grass represents religious awareness and blessings. If
one sees grass growing in the palm of his hand in a dream, it means that he will
discover his wife having a secret affair, and he will find her in the company of
someone else. If one sees grass growing over his hand in a dream, it means that
he will die shortly and grass will grow over his grave. If he sees grass growing
in a place where it is not supposed to grow, such as inside one’s house or inside
a mosque in a dream, it means a wedding. If one sees grass growing all over him
but does not cover his ears or eyes in a dream, it means prosperity. If he sees
grass growing on people’s hands or floating on water in a dream, it means a good
harvest and prosperity for everyone. If weeds grow at the same time in the
dream, they connote negative effects. If a sick person sees such a dream, it
means that he is nearinghis death. Grass growingover one’s stomach in a dream
means his death or his burial after death. If grass grows all over one’s body but
does not cover his head in the dream, it means prosperity and wealth. If the grass
covers one’s eyes and ears in the dream, it means that he will become heedless
and loses the advantages of his religious life. The same interpretation is given
if one sees feathers growing over his body. If poisonous weeds grow over one’s
body in a dream, they represent an illness or death. As grass is cattle’s food and
cattle represents people’s wealth, then gathering and eating grass in a dream
means prosperity. If an ascetic sees himself eating grass in a dream, it means
that he will revert to desiring the world and its pleasures, and consequently, he
will be deceived by it. Wild grass in a dream represent bad earnings and a
miserable life. Cutting and selling grass in a dream means dispelling stress and
difficulties, or it could represent a police officer or a tithe collector. (Also see
Meadows; Weeds)

Alms tax
(Tithe) Paying the dues alms tax in a dream means increase in one’s
income or prosperity. If a rich man sees himself paying the due tithe on his liquid
assets in a dream, it means increase in his wealth, a spiritual growth and
receiving the blessing of performing one’s obligatory prayers on time. Payment
of one’s due tithe also represents protection from one’s enemies. Paying alms tax
in a dream also means performing supererogatory prayers during the night,
repayment of debts, absolution, or it could mean paying a fine. Alms tax in a
dream also means the death of a dear person in the family, or it could mean
losing a limb due to an illness or an accident, giving a charity for the benefit of
a departed soul, or payment of one’s debts. Thus, paying alms tax in a dream
may mean increase in one’s wealth, recovering from illness or payment of one’s
debts, all of which earn levels of exaltation and blessings. To pay charity on one’s
property of silver in a dream means begetting a son, or it could mean getting
married. If it is a poor person, then paying alms tax in a dream represents God’s
acceptance of one’s deeds. If he is a sinner, it means that he will repent of sin
and earn lawful money, and if he is a disbeliever, it means that he will become
a believer. (Also see Charity; Endowment; Tithe collector)

trying to escape from danger. (Also see Escape from danger; Running away)

a hairdresser, the tithe collector, a collection agent, an emissary or a trader.

Interpreted by Ibn Sirin
Repel
Repelling someone in a dream means ingratitude, or disbelief.
Repentance: In a dream, repentance means release from prison. It also means
reversing the course of one’s life to attain success and to replace failure. If one
sees himself refraining from evil and sins in a dream, it means that he will be
tried with an adversity, then repents to regain honor after humiliation. If one
repents for a sin he is not even aware of in a dream, it may be feared that he
will fall into its trap, though the conclusion will turn positive. If a musician or
an adulterer repents from sin in a dream, it means that he may experience
poverty after richness. (Also see Prostration; Tithe collector)
