All Jinn Dream Interpretations

Dragon

Dreaming of a dragon points to a harsh sovereign or cruel authority, and may also picture a devouring blaze. The count of its heads measures the threat: more heads, graver peril. Should an ill dreamer meet the beast, it forecasts his expiry. If a woman with child imagines birthing such a creature, she will deliver an offspring burdened by lingering sickness. Bearing a dragon likewise signals a youth who will master speech, answer to two names, or follow the paths of soothsayer, recluse, rogue, bandit, or insolent wretch finally slain. The dragon also marks the passage of eras. When the monster approaches without dread, speaks plain words, or bestows a gift, expect joyful announcements. If a colossal dragon shifts into human shape, it embodies a regiment of male or female jinn; marching feminine spirits betoken a foe cloaking aim and name. That enemy owns many heads and arts of foul conduct, each head from one to seven signifying varied misfortunes or crafts of harm. A seven-headed serpent shows an unequalled adversary whose plots know no parallel. Should the sleeper rule the dragon, he exploits one whose mind is unsound. (Also see Jinn)

Ghost

A ghost in a dream symbolizes wealth or financial benefit that comes from a friendly, familiar, or unsuspected source, often without struggle or hostility. It may indicate receiving money, assistance, or support from someone who appears harmless or kind, or gaining benefit in a subtle or unexpected manner. If a pregnant woman sees a ghost in her dream, it signifies that she will give birth to a son, pointing to the arrival of male offspring and the continuation of lineage, accompanied by provision and blessing associated with the child.

Jinn

Jinn in a dream symbolize hidden forces and unseen influences, representing fraud, deception, cunning, treachery, theft, alcoholism, heretical practices, travel, music, taverns, trickery, illusion, sorcery, and magic, reflecting matters that are concealed, misleading, or beyond ordinary perception, and since Jinn are created from smokeless fire, among them are believers and devils just as among humans there are believers and human satans. If one is transformed into a Jinni in a dream, it indicates acquiring such traits of craftiness, secrecy, or unusual abilities, while meeting a Jinni who is clearly truthful, knowledgeable, and wise signifies glad tidings, benefit, or good news. Seeing Jinn standing at one’s door points to loss, misfortune, an unfulfilled vow, or persistent bad luck, and seeing them enter one’s house and work therein warns of thieves causing serious damage or loss. Teaching the Qur’an to a gathering of Jinn in a dream signifies elevation in rank, leadership, authority, or appointment to a position of command, while accompanying Jinn indicates association with people of deep knowledge, wisdom, or inner understanding. Marrying a female Jinni signifies marrying an insolent or troublesome spouse or facing a great calamity and hardship. If a righteous person sees himself chaining Jinn, it reflects strong faith, steadfastness in prayer and fasting, and mastery over the lower self and base desires, while fighting Jinn indicates protection and safety from their harm. Befriending a known leader among the Jinn signifies becoming an enforcer of law, such as a police officer pursuing criminals and bandits, or attaining guidance, knowledge, and the role of a teacher. Seeing Jinn gathered in a known place may also symbolize hidden dangers, such as snakes, scorpions, or fearful creatures of the wilderness, reflecting concealed threats and unseen perils.

Satan

To behold the cursed being in a dream signifies wickedness, transgression, deceit, theft, envy, magic, division between spouses, neglect of prayer, or spreading false teachings. It may also denote the promotion of fabricated beliefs or concepts. Should one become Satan in the vision, it indicates loss of vision. Slaying Satan in a dream means one will outwit and overcome a trickster and an evildoer. In dreams, the accursed Satan represents an adversary to both body and spirit—a deceiver, swindler, unbeliever, ingrate, jealous being, whimsical, proud, negligent, rash—or he may symbolize a ruler, minister, judge, officer, scholar, preacher, hypocrite, or one's own kin and offspring. Seeing Satan also implies depravity, filth, desire, and lewd temptation. If Satan assails the dreamer, it signifies income derived from usury. If Satan touches him, it means someone is maligning or attempting to beguile his spouse. For one who is ill or distressed, Satan's touch foretells laying hands on material wealth. If the dreamer endures diabolical trials yet remains steadfast in remembering and invoking God's aid, it signifies many foes striving to mislead or ruin him, though they shall ultimately fail and be vanquished by divine will. To see Satan pursuing him denotes an enemy seeking to deceive him, leading to loss of standing, rank, and the fruits of knowledge. If one converses inwardly with Satan, it means he will ally with his enemy to assail the righteous, but he will not succeed. If Satan instructs him in the dream, he will concoct tales, utter falsehoods, or recite poetry laden with lies. If Satan descends upon him, it reveals engagement in falsehood and sin. Presiding over a host of satans, commanding and being obeyed, denotes receiving a seat of honor and being feared by friend and foe alike. Chaining Satan signifies triumph in life, along with power and renown. Being deceived by a group of satans foretells financial loss or dismissal from work. Satan stripping one of clothing means defeat by an enemy. Satan whispering in the ear portends job dismissal. Defying and battling Satan indicates a true and strong believer who obeys his Lord and adheres to religious duties. If Satan frightens the dreamer, he is a sincere deputy and protégé of God, safeguarded from fear of the cursed one or his legions. Witnessing a meteor or flame shooting at Satan in the sky signifies an enemy of God in that place; if the dreamer is a ruler, his secrets will be exposed; if a judge, just retribution for his injustice will follow. Seeing Satan joyful signifies indulgence in base desires, passion, and vile acts. Generally, Satan is a feeble enemy; fighting him resolutely reveals a devout and pious nature. If Satan swallows or enters one's body, it presages terror, losses, and suffering. Satan may also represent builders or sea-divers who act as spies. Seeing them can also mean backbiting or slander. Becoming Satan in a dream denotes one who constantly scowls at others, quick to harm, or who works cleaning sewers, or may perish by fire, or die in heedlessness.
