Islamic Interpretation
(arb. Sirat) This is the bridge people have to walk over after the Day of Resurrection to meet their Lord on the Day of Judgement. The ease of crossing it depends on the weight of the deeds one is carrying. Some cross like lightning, while others have to carry their burdens and move at varying paces. Walking on it in a dream means a journey. If the bridge caves under one's feet in the dream, it means destruction and death. Seeing this bridge in a dream also represents knowledge, truth, believing in God's oneness, and following the teachings and example of God's Messenger, upon whom be peace. If one's foot slips while crossing it in the dream, it means that he will miss the path. If one sees himself walking the path in a dream, it means that he is on the right track, follows what is commanded, and abstains from what is forbidden. It also means that one will undergo awesome changes, undertake major responsibilities, and succeed in reaching safety. If one's foot slips in a dream, it also means that he will fall into sin and deviate from the straight path.
