Wound
(Bleeding; Cut; Injury) A wound in a dream means compensation money
that will come out of an injury one may suffer, and it will show. A cut in the right
hand in a dream means money which is earned from a family business. If the
left hand receives the cut, such profits will come through a female relative. If
one sees his left foot bleeding from a cut, it means that he will earn money from
a farming business. If his injury is in his back, then such profits will come from his children.
If his wound starts bleeding in the dream, it means a debt which
he must repay, even if it is difficult for him to do so at present. Every bleeding
wound in a dream represents a financial obligation. In a dream, a head wound
which does not bleed is a sign that one should guard his money. A wound which
does not bleed in a dream also represents recognition by others. If a man of
authority is wounded in an accident, whereby his flesh splits open, and his bones
are dissected in a dream, it means that he will live a long life to see the burial
of most of his relatives. If an army general sees his left hand wounded in a
dream, it means that his army will double in size. If his right hand is wounded
in the dream, it means that the area of his control will expand. If one suffers from
a wound in his stomach in the dream, it means growth in his financial standing.
If one is wounded in his thigh in the dream, it means that his clan will grow
stronger. If one sees himself wounded in his legs in a dream, it means longevity.
If one’s foot is wounded in the dream, it means that his authority and control
will become firmer. If one receives a cut and no blood runs out of his wound in
a dream, it means that the assailant will say something true about his victim,
representing the answer the person in the dream needs to realize. A bleeding
wound in a dream also means being subject to backbiting, though what will be
said is true. If one sees an angel piercing his stomach with a sword, whereby he
thinks that he is dead in the dream, it means that he may suffer from an ulcer
which will ultimately heal. If the sword inflicts a wound in his neck in a dream,
it means prosperity which will mostly benefit his progeny. (Also see Horizontal
wound; Surgery; Vertical wound)

off in a dream, it means circumcision, falling in rank, or it could mean his death.
Inhaling water and clearing one's nose in a dream represents someone who

blocked in such a way that he could not speak in a dream, it denotes his
stinginess toward his own family. Ifone sees one of his limbs speaking against
him in a dream, it means that someone will report him to the authorities or
become a witness against him in court. If one sees himself in a dream riding over
the shoulders of his enemy, it means that he will commit a wrongdoing or a
shameful act. If there is no enmity between them, and if he sees himself riding
over the shoulders of a friend in a dream, it means earning something from him.
Carrying something over one's shoulders in a dream means debts. If one sees

and ability to meet one's obligations. Wounds, festering or purulence in one's
neck in a dream mean betraying God's trust. If one sees a nice bird sitting over
his neck in a dream it means benefits or an alibi. If it is not a gentle bird, then
it becomes a bad omen, or a rebuke. If one sees a necklace, a rope, a wire, or a
thread around his neck in a dream, it means fulfilling one's promise, acquiring

assistant. If the right hand is cut off in a dream, it means a vow one takes to
deprive someone from his rights. It also means loss of one's job or cutting off one's
blood ties, or it could mean that he has committed a theft. If a righteous person
sees his hand cut off in a dream, it means abstaining from wrongdoing or
eschewing evil. If one's left hand is cut off in a dream, it means reestablishing
his relationship with his family and rediscovering the benefits of good qualities.
If one's hand is broken in a dream, it means an adversity, illness, loss of

weakness, illness, old age or longevity. If one's hands feel dry in a dream" it
means that such a person does little good in his life. If one enters his hand under
his arm's pit in a dream, then brings it out bright and radiant in a dream, it
means that he will acquire knowledge and may develop wisdom. Otherwise, it
could mean profits. If he brings forth his hand from under his arm's pit in the
dream, and if it reveal a flame in his dream, it represents a manifestation of
divine power and a blessed victory. If one pulls his hand from under his arm's
pit and it brings forth water in the dream, it means that he will receive great
benefits and growth in his life, or perhaps that a long awaited traveller will
shortly arrive to his doorsteps. If a right-handed person sees himself being left-
handed in a dream, it means hardships. If one sees himself walking with his
hands in a dream, it represents his dependence on a relative to provide for his

soap in a dream, it means that he will abandon something he initiated, or that
his intention will not be fulfilled. If a form of life or a good spirit comes out from
one's hands in a dream, it indicates benefits. If such a life is a malignant one,
then it means the opposite. If one takes someone by the hand in a dream, it
means that he will help him and save his life. If something sprouts in one's hands
or if one's hands turn into iron, or a vegetable in a dream, it means negative
repercussions in wakefulness. Hands in a dream are interpreted in twelve ways:
that is a brother, a sister, a partner, a son, a compassionate friend, one's
strength, wealth, leadership, money, proof, a craft, or work. The condition in
which the palm of one's hand looks in a dream indicates the state of one's health
and fitness. Clapping one's hands in a dream could either mean joy and
happiness, or it could mean nothing. Wearing a glove in one's hand in a dream
means ceasing the course of wrongdoing. Slapping one's own face with both
hands means sorrow, sadness or calamities. Hitting the back of one's hand into
the palm of the other hand in a dream means separation. In a dream, the fingers
of the right hand represent the daily five time prayers. The thumb represents
the pre-dawn prayer, the index represents the midday prayer, the middle finger
represents the mid-afternoon prayer, the ring finger represents the sunset
prayer, and the little finger represents the evening prayer. As for the fingers of
the left hand in a dream, they are interpreted to represent one's nephews. To
cross or intertwine one's fingers in a dream means difficulties and poverty. One's
toes in a dream represent the beauty of his character and denote his straight-
forwardness. Any defect or crookedness in them in a dream will mirror in
wakefulness. If a toe or a finger is bitten or crushed in a dream, it denotes evil
or perhaps an accident. If one sees milk coming forth from his thumb and blood
coming forth from his index finger in a dream, it means that he will marry a
mother, then will he marry her daughter, or it could mean that he will rape the
mother, then her daughter. Cracking one's fingers in a dream means exchanging
bad words between relatives or being sarcastic or making fun of other people.
If one's fingers are paralyzed in a dream, it means that he has committed an
awful sin. If one sees his right hand paralyzed in a dream, it means injustice
toward a weak person or inflicting losses upon an innocent person. If one's left
hand is paralyzed in a dream, it means the death of his brother or sister. As for
the fingernails in a dream, they denote beauty, courage, strength, a religious
covenant, or money. If one's fingernails are chipped, extracted, or broken in a
dream, they means loss of money and strength. If they look nicely clipped in a
dream, they mean both spiritual and material benefits. Long nails at the point
of a near breaking in a dream mean distress, sorrow, fears and depression. If
one's nail becomes a claw in a dream, it means rising against one's enemy and
opposition. If one does not have fingernails in a dream, it means bankruptcy.
If one's fingernails turn yellow, green or blue or if they are broken in the dream,
it means death. Clipping them in a dream means dispelling calamities or
distress. If a thorn or a chip of wooden enters under one's fingernails in a dream,
it means loss of power or money. If one sees himself in a dream knocking his

a loathsome act. As for seeing one's chest in a dream, if one sees himself having
a broad and a nice looking chest (See Chest), it means repentance of a sinner,
or being eager and willing to follow the truth and to comply with it, or to make
easy what was earlier difficult. One's breasts in a dream (See Breast) represent
his daughter. Man's breast in a dream means a woman, and woman's breasts
in a dream represents a man. Breasts in a dream mean five things: a little boy,
a little girl, a servant, a friend, or a brother. One's abdomen in a dream means
money, children, relatives or prosperity. If one sees his abdomen being cut open and washed, then stitched back to normal in the dream, it means blessings from
God Almighty, forgiveness for one's sins, and it could mean that one will receive
spiritual guidance. One's abdomen in a dream also denotes his good conduct,
amiable character, blessed enterprises and protection from the evil of the
accursed Satan. If one sees a newborn son or daughter coming out of his
abdomen in a dream, it means that such a child will be born and will grow to
govern that household. As for one's livers in a dream, they represent knowledge, money or children. If a man of knowledge sees his livers flying away from
his body like birds in a dream, it means that he will forget his knowledge, or if
one has children, they may die, or perhaps the government may seize his
property even if he has nothing. If one sees himself eating his own livers in a
dream, it means earning his livelihood. If they are cooked in the dream, then
they represent a lawful income, or they could mean gobbling the property of
one's own children. Ifa liver is removed in a dream, it means the death of a child.
Removing a liver in a dream also could mean injustice. One's kidney in a dream
means having a good business connection, dispelling adversities, distress,
trouble, safety from danger, a husband and a wife, one's parents, or it could

courageous and a hard working man who serves someone in authority, or he may
become a personal guard, or an assistant to the governor. As for one's lungs in
a dream, they represent joy, happiness, or sorrow. Donating a lung to someone
known or unknown in a dream means receiving happiness in return. Eating a
broiled lung of a domesticated animal in a dream means profits. Otherwise, it
could mean acquiring unlawful money. Seeing one's lung torn in a dream means
nearing one's death. One's spleen in a dream (See Spleen) represents money.
As for seeing one's intestines in a dream, they represent earnings, leadership,
a child, unlawful money, intercession, hatred, livelihood, work or they could
mean changing one's mind about doing something which could cause a disaster.
One's stomach in a dream represents longevity, livelihood or children. A
healthy stomach in a dream means enjoying strength and a long life. The same
interpretation is given to the intestines or the umbilicus or the navel and the
three of them represent one's relationship with his wife. As for the ribs (See Ribs)
in a dream, they represent women. The loins or the spinal column in a dream
represent one's progeny. One's back in a dream (See Back) represents his strength,
wealth, glory, fame, master, destruction, end, poverty, old age and burdens. If
one sees himself carrying a heavy load in a dream, it means that he is carrying
his sins. If he carries merchandise in the dream, it means debt. If he carries
woods in the dream, it means backbiting others. If one sees himself carrying a
dead person on his back in a dream, it means that he takes care of orphans. As
for one's heart (See Heart) in a dream, it means intelligence, vigilance, aware-
ness, guidance, clarity and piety. One's buttocks and the rear end in a dream
represent his earnings, job and profits. If one sees himself licking someone's rear
end or buttocks in the dream, it means giving high praises to an unworthy and
an impious person or commending him. The male and female sexual organs
in a dream represent a good father or one's profession. What comes or goes into
the male organ or woman's vagina in a dream of good or bad will reflect in their
lives. Seeing one's penis in a dream means children, money, pride, state, or
authority. The testicles represent one's livelihood, one's daughters, protection
and maintenance. The meaning of the penis and the testicles may be transposed
in the dream interpretation. One's anus in a dream means a pouch, a store, a
resting place, or a coffer. The knee represents one's capital or one's attendance
to his work and earning his livelihood. As for the legs, they too represent one's
capital, paying attention to one's work and conduct. Man's leg represents a
woman, and a woman's leg represents a man. If one's leg turns into wood or iron in a dream, it means that he will fail to earn his livelihood.
One's feet represent his parents, his livelihood, a journey or his wealth. (See Feet; Foot).
If one foot is broken or cut off in a dream, it means either the death of a parent or loss of half of one's capital. If one's feet turn into iron or copper in a dream, it means
longevity. If they turn into glass in the dream, they denote his short life. The

Pimple
(Abscess; Boil; Postulate; Pus; Swelling; Tumor; Ulcer) When one sees
that he has contracted pimples that open, and if pus starts running from them
in the dream, it means benefits or a booty. In general, open wounds and pimples
in a dream represent money and profits, unless if they appear in high concentration
or cause sufferings in the dream. Thus, pimples could represent money that
keeps coming as long as the pus has not dried in the dream. (Also see Swelling)

Sword
(Blade; Power; Scabbard) In a dream, a sword represents a son, a king, a
clan, a tribe, a farm, a property, or a woman. If a sword is interpreted as power,
then it means diligence, and if it is interpreted as words, it means clarity of
speech. If it is interpreted as one’s father, then it represents the father’s pride
of his son. If one’s sword is weighing heavy and is being dragged with difficulty
in the dream, it means an appointment that is difficult to bear, though one will
draw benefits from it. If one hands his wife the blade in the dream, it means that
she will bear a son. If he hands her the sword sheathed in the dream, it means
that she will bear a daughter. An iron sword in a dream represents a son. A brass
sword in a dream means a rich son. A lead sword in a dream means an effeminate
son. A wooden sword in a dream means a son who is a hypocrite, and a tarnished
sword in a dream represents an unattractive son. To draw out one’s sword from
its sheath in a dream could represent some words one is prepared to say. If the sword is sharpened,
bright and scintillating in the dream, it means that his words will be sweet and true.
If it looks rusted or tarnished in the dream, it means that his words will be harsh and false. If the sword is heavy in the dream,
it means that he will say words which are even heavy on him to bear. If the sword
has a crack in the dream, it means that his words will be rejected, and his
intention will vex. If one’s sword falls to the floor in the dream, it means that
one may divorce his wife. If one’s sword is seen laying beside him in the dream,
it means that he is a man of authority. If the loop or the belt breaks and the sword
falls in the dream, it means loss of one’s power. If the hilt breaks in the dream,
it may mean the death one’s wife. If one is given a sheath without a sword in
a dream, it means that he will keep something in trust. If the handle of one’s
sword breaks in the dream, it means that either one’s father, uncle, aunt, or
mother may die shortly. If the blade breaks in the dream, it means that one’s
servant, or assistant-worker may die shortly. If one sees swords flying in the air
in a dream, they represent a plague. A sword in a dream also could represent
one’s anger, or his tight financial circumstances. Swallowing a sword in a dream
means gathering the spoils of war. If a sword swallows someone in a dream, it
means a snakebite. In a dream, the sheath of a sword represents a woman.
Hitting someone with a sword in a dream means insulting him with harsh
words. Sheathing one’s sword in a dream means marriage. If the blade ceases
to cut in a dream, it means that one’s words will bear no weight. If one is hit with
a sword, and if he loses his hand, his leg, or receives wounds in the dream, it
means having an argument that involves one’s father, son, or brother, etcetera,
depending which limb and what member of one’s family it represents. If one’s
head is cut off with a sword in a dream, it means that the one who received the
blow will triumph over the one who beheaded him, or receive benefits through
him. If one’s body is dismembered with a sword in a dream, it means that he may
travel far, or that his progeny will disperse across the land. A sword in a dream
also represents wealth, power or knowledge. Waving a sword during a duel in
a dream means becomingknown in one’s field or profession. (Also see Duel; Knife)

Stream
(Brook; Creek; Irrigation; Rivulet; Watering) In a dream, a stream
represents the course of one’s livelihood, his source of income, his shop, his
trade, travels and the like interests. A stream in a dream also could mean
festering wounds, waterskin, watering irrigation, the resting area on the
highway, one’s throat which is the watering access of his body, or it could
represent life if it is public property. If it is a private property, then it represents
the life of the person who digs out such a stream. A stream in a dream also
represents a good life, or the comfort of its owner. If its water flows over its banks
in the dream, then it represents sorrows, crying, or sadness. If one sees a stream
flowing through people’s homes in a dream, then such a stream represents a
happy life and particularly when its water is colorless and sweet tasting. If one
sees himself as the owner of a stream, a spring, or a watercourse which he
establishes as a charity in a dream, it means that he will become a leader, a
president, or happily serve his community. If one cleans a rivulet then finds it
filthy again, or finds it filled with trash in his dream, it represents diarrhea. If
he sees water flowing under his feet in a dream, then it means dropsy. If one sees
a stream of water running through a town where people are filling their jars,
drinking its water and thanking God for His blessings in a dream, it means that
a calamity is removed and is replaced with peace, safety and tranquility. If the
people are inflicted with adversities or a drought, then it means prosperity and
rains, food, or money and their merchandise will not stagnate. If the water in
the stream is murky, or salty, or running outside its canal, then it represents
a coming calamity that will cause mass sufferings, or a sickness such as cold in
the winter and fever in the summer, or it could mean that they will hear bad
news about some travellers, or it could represent a richness which is acquired
from an unlawful source, or it could mean that he will receive tainted money.
If one sees a watercourse flowing only in the direction of his house, then such
adversities will be his lot. If one sees a stream flowing in the direction of his
house, or garden in a dream, it means a marriage or conceiving a child. A stream
of flowing blood rather than water in a dream represents the deviation of one’s wife.
If one sees a stream running off its course, or damaging people’s crops in
a dream, it means bad news. Blocking the path of a stream in a dream means
separation between a husband and a wife, or avoiding a sinful action between
unmarried relatives. If one sees himself standing behind a rivulet in a dream,
it means that his wife will inherit him. If one sees the water of a stream flowing
toward his own home or garden, and if he finds that its water has turned into
blood in the dream, it means that someone will marry his wife after him.
Drinking fresh water from a rivulet, a stream, or a river in a dream represents
the joy of living or longevity. A murky water of a rivulet or a stream in a dream
means a fright, difficulties, or a sickness. Streams in a dream also represent the
veins and the blood that flows through the human body. (Also see Fountainhead;
Meadow; Spring)

Skies
(Castle; Child; Firmament; Heavens; House; Mother; Oath; Ocean; Prison;
Teacher; Town; Wife; Wonders) In a dream, the sky represents itself. Whatever
descends from it or comes from that direction in a dream will materialize. If fire
falls from the sky over people’s homes in a dream, it means plagues, illness,
pleurisy, smallpox, or death and destruction. If fire falls over the marketplace
in the dream, it means higher prices. If it falls over the fields and farmlands in
the dream, it means that the crops could either burn, freeze, or be struck by a
swarm of locusts or by other harmful insects. If what falls from the sky indicates
prosperity, such as honey, oil, figs, barley, or money, etcetera, in the dream, it
means a good rain and a good harvest for that year. Whatever falls from the sky
of good or bad may represent the government and the hardships it inflicts upon
the people, or the benefits it may bring them. Climbing to the sky with a rope,
a ladder, or using a staircase in a dream means exaltation, rising in station, good
luck and support. If one climbs without a common medium in a dream, it means
fear and arrogance. If his intention in climbing is to spy on others in the dream,
it means that he may work as a spy. If one descends safely from the sky in the
dream, it means that he will escape and be spared the consequences of his sin.
If he falls and breaks or fractures a bone or so in the dream, it means that he
may suffer such accident in wakefulness. If a sick person sees himself climbing
to the sky, and if he does not return to earth in the dream, it means that he may
die from his illness. If he comes back in the dream, it means that his illness will
increase and his difficulties will reach their peak, though God willing, he will
recover from his illness, unless he falls into a hole in a dream. In that case the
hole represents his grave. If one sees the sky shooting arrows causing people
wounds, injuries and bleeding in a dream, it means taxes and confiscation of
properties by the government. If the arrows hit people’s ears and eyes only in
the dream, it means that major trials and temptations will strike at everyone.
If the arrows fall without causing harm to anyone, and if people rush to collect
them in the dream, they represent a booty that people will come to win, or a
divine gifts people will enjoy. To rise close to the sky in a dream means nearness
to one’s Lord. This is particularly true for pious people and for true believers.
Nearing the sky in a dream also represents a supplication needing an immediate
answer, and God willing such prayers will be answered. Nearing the sky in a
dream also could mean going before the governor of one’s town, or any person
from whom one may need something, i.e., a teacher, a man of knowledge, a
father, or a wife. If one sees the sky falling over his head in a dream, it means
that the roof of his house may cave in, or that he will die from an illness he
already suffers. If one sees himself climbing and entering the sky in a dream,
it means that he will die as a martyr. If one sees himself standing in the sky in
a dream, it means that he will command or admonish others. If one sees himself
in the sky looking down at something on earth in a dream, it means that he will
rise in station, then he will regret something he missed. If one sees the sky green
in a dream, it means prosperity and a good harvest. If one sees the sky turned
into iron in a dream, it means drought or scarcity of rain. If one falls from the
sky in a dream, it means that he may abandon his faith, become a reprobate,
or that he may be struck with a major calamity that will be driven by an unjust
person. If the iron sky splits open, and if an old man appears from behind it in
the dream, such an old person represents the grandfather of the people of that
town or tribe. Consequently, people will enjoy a good harvest, prosperity and
happiness. If it is a young man that appears in the dream, then he represents
an enemy and an evil that may befall the people following such dream. If a sheep
appears from the sky in a dream, then it means profits. If camels appear, then
they represent rain. If a lion appears in the dream, it represents an unjust ruler.
If the sky becomes one solid piece in the dream, it means drought. If it rips apart
and its doors become wide open in the dream, then it means rain or an answer
to people’s prayers. If one sees himself reaching out and touching the sky in a
dream, it means that he is seeking an important goal, and that he will fail to
attain it. If one sees himself rising near the lower heavens in a dream, it means
worldly gains, or profits and status in either material or spiritual realms. If one
