Islamic Interpretation
In a dream, a belt signifies one who bears responsibilities. It can also denote journeys, currency, reserves, or avarice. It may further imply earnest efforts and diligence in the pursuit of knowledge. A belt or waistband can represent one's spouse or property. For a woman, wearing one symbolizes her brother, brother-in-law, or father-in-law; if she is pregnant, it foretells the birth of a daughter. For a man, wearing a waistband denotes a female relative whom he is forbidden to marry. A broken belt signifies a quarrel with one's wife. If a waistband transforms into a snake, it indicates enmity with a brother-in-law. A waistband soaked in blood warns that one may be slain because of his wife, or may plot to kill her. Wearing a belt can also represent carrying sums of money or attracting an unforeseen calamity. Purchasing a new belt signifies safeguarding one's assets, wealth, or knowledge.
