Islamic Interpretation
(Cup, Plate, Tray) In a dream, a bowl represents a man's money pouch or what his wife would like to receive from him. If one sees himself receiving a bowl filled with sweets in a dream, it means receiving an abundance of love from one's beloved. If the bowl is filled with sour food or some green raw vegetables in the dream, it means that animosity will develop on the part of his beloved, and it will provoke despise and fighting between husband and wife. Seeing a bowl in a dream also means an increase in one's earnings. A bowl also represents a servant, a child, a daughter, a nanny, or a handmaiden. Licking a bowl in a dream represents one's earnings, and it could mean that he has consumed his lot in this life, or that he has reached the term of his life in this world. If one sees a large number of people gathering around a bowl to eat from it in a dream, it means a reunion of his clan, or it could represent the place of his dwelling. If they are people of true actions, it means that they will become friendly with him. If one urinates in a bowl or a jar in a dream, it means that he will sexually abuse members of his own family. A bowl in a dream also represents one's beloved, and its contents represent one's love. Holding a bowl in a dream means a reunion with one's beloved. (Also see Pot, Wooden bowl)
