Islamic Interpretation
Owning small bells in a dream signifies a quarrel, a dispute, or frivolous talk associated with the person possessing them. Seeing a bell represents a herald or a precursor to a ruler. Generally, it denotes that someone will bring joyful news. A bell fastened around an animal's neck indicates a journey. Church bells symbolize individuals whose counsel one may seek and follow. Bells can also represent books of revelation, warnings, or admonitions. In dreams, bells or cymbals can signify the arrival of a trading caravan or a shipment of goods. They may also symbolize a bearer of divine revelations, the mishandling of such revelations, or the adoption of customary practices. (Also see Hand bell)
