Islamic Interpretation
A castle in a dream embodies reliance upon truth as a means of defense, giving rise to the saying that truth serves as an impregnable stronghold. It can also denote its proprietors, military defenses, or symbolize sacred knowledge and the Qur'an. Furthermore, it may represent seeking Allah's shelter from the harms of the cursed Satan and his forces, including hostilities, absurd plots, and deceptions. The towers signify prominent figures or guides. The crenellations stand for the women. The entrances represent sentinels or keepers. The minarets denote advisors or officials. Hospices and resting places within symbolize the female inhabitants. For a faithful person, a castle might signify either confinement or the gardens of eternity. Beholding one and then turning away from it foretells elevation in station or preservation of purity. (Also see Citadel, Fortress)
