Air

Standing in the air in a dream means being honoured or acknowledged by a governor, though it will not last. If one has exaggerated hopes, arrogance, pride, or if he is a self-centred individual, then his floating in the air represents mere disturbed dreams. Walking in the air without ascending or descending in a dream means receiving dignity, honour, and earning lawful money. If one does not qualify for it, then walking in the air in his dream means traveling. Hanging in the air between the heavens and the earth in a dream represents a concerned heart and uncertainty about what to do! Falling in the air in a dream means despair or loss of status in wakefulness. Falling in a dream also means relief from distress, wantonness, or satisfying one's needs. Clear, fresh, and pure air in a dream represents a good time to take a trip for business or pleasure. Air in a dream also represents one's desire and passion. Thus, disobeying one's mind, desire, and passion in a dream means entering the heavenly paradise. Following one's desires in a dream means negligence of one's religious duties. Standing up in the air and speaking loudly in a dream means blessings, favours, money, honour, and fame. Sitting in the air in a dream means arrogance and self-deception regarding religious opinions. Building a house up in the air or placing a mat in the air, or raising a tent in the air, means the death of a sick person, and what is built in this case is one's coffin. If a governor sees that dream, it means his dismissal from his office or his death. Seeing that dream after a wedding or after having marital relations with one's wife means mistrust and loss. It also means involvement in an uncouth action, lacking knowledge of the Holy Book and prophetic traditions, because what one has built lacks a foundation. Flying in the air in a dream may mean traveling. Flying with wings in a dream has stronger connotations and is safer. The wings here will represent money or power. Swimming in the air means benefits or business travels. If the air looks opaque in one's eyes, so that he cannot see the skies in his dream, it means problems with one's superior. If one does not have a boss, then it means that they may lose sight. If all the people witnessed the air as opaque or red in the dream, then it means a major calamity and a trying adversity.

Allah

God Almighty, Lord, Creator and Cherisher of the universes. There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the All-Hearing, the Al-Seeing Lord. Seeing God in a dream can be interpreted according to one's state of being. If one sees Him in His glory and majesty, without descriptive designation, without ascription of human characteristics to Him, and without depiction or portrayal in the dream, it is an indication of glad tidings for both this world and the hereafter. These blessings may also continue to affect the lives of one's progeny. If one sees Him otherwise in a dream, it means confusion, and particularly if the Almighty Lord does not address him. If an ailing person sees Him in a dream, it means that he will soon die and come to meet Him. If a straying soul sees God Almighty in a dream, it will find guidance. If an oppressed person sees Him, it means that justice will prevail and he will triumph over his oppressors. Hearing God's words without designation represents the imagination of the person in the dream. Perhaps hearing His words in a dream appeases one's heart and increases the person's drive for success. Hearing God's words without seeing Him represents the rising of one's station. If one receives revelations from behind a veil in a dream, it means mental confusion and innovation. This is most true if a messenger comes in one's dream and describes the one who spoke as God. In this case, the dream is a nightmare, because God Almighty cannot be depicted according to human descriptions. If one sees a picture of God in his dream, it means that he is a liar who ascribes images to God Almighty that do not befit His Majesty and Glory. If one hears God Almighty talking to him directly and if he can focus on Him in the dream, it means that he will be encompassed with God's mercy and blessings. If one sees God Almighty in a dream, it means that he will look at His Divine countenance in the hereafter. Seeing God Almighty seated on the Divine Throne in a dream means elevation of one's rank, knowledge, and increase in his wealth. If one sees himself running away to hide from God Almighty in a dream, it means that he will change the course of his devotion into heedlessness. Seeing a veil separating the servant and his Lord in a dream means that one will commit major sins and abominable actions. If one sees his Lord frowning at him, whereby he could not bear the effulgence of God's light, or if he is seized by a shock and immediately commences to repent and pray for forgiveness in the dream, it means that such a person is indulging in abominable actions, and that he is a despicable sinner who follows his mind and desires, and that he is an innovator of religious thoughts who misleads the people. If one hears God Almighty talking to him in a dream, it represents an admonition and a warning to abstain from sin. If one hears God Almighty talking to him in a dream, it also means that one is more assiduous in his recital of the Qur'an. If one hears God Almighty talking to him with words he cannot understand, then if He anoints him and blesses him in the dream, it means that God Almighty will bring him nigh unto Himself and exalt his station. If one sees God Almighty in a form resembling one's father, a brother, or a relative and showing His kindness or blessing him in a dream, it means that he will be afflicted with a calamity and a major illness. If a righteous person sees himself standing before God Almighty in reverence and filled with awe in a dream, it means that mercy will encompass him and help him to further his growth. The same interpretation applies if one sees himself prostrating before Him. If God Almighty speaks to someone from behind a veil in a dream, it can also represent a good worshipper, but if the Divine address takes place without a veil in the dream, it means falling into sin. If God Almighty names someone in his dream with his birth name, then adds another title to it, it means rising in station and rank. If one sees God Almighty angry with him in a dream, it means that his parents are displeased with him. This description includes seeing oneself falling from the sky or the top of a mountain. If a devoted servant sees God Almighty kissing him in a dream, it applies to his growing devotion and reward. Fearing God Almighty in a dream reflects eminence, peacefulness, quiescence, wealth of being, and disregard for material needs.

Boat

(Ferry, Ferryboat, Fireboat, Fishing boat, Ship, Star) In a dream, a fishing boat represents profits and benefits. To sail on an unknown boat or to pilot a boat or to give orders to sailors who are operating it in a dream means marriage to a woman from a country to which the boat belongs, or it could mean doing business in that land. To ride on a ferryboat in a dream means receiving God's benevolence and kindness in crossing over danger. A boat in a dream also represents one's relatives. Thus, whatever atmospheric conditions the skies exhibit during the crossing or a journey by boat, they will manifest in one's family. In a dream, a fireboat means dispelling anxieties, overcoming distress, and adversities. (Also see Carpenter, Helm, Ship)

If one sees himself carrying a hypocrite over his shoulders in a dream, it means that he may work in a lumberyard or carry wood to earn a living.

A long neck in a dream could mean four things, that is: justice, leadership, attainment of one's goals, or calling people to prayers.

One's abdomen in a dream also denotes his good conduct, amiable character, blessed enterprises, and protection from the evil of the accursed Satan. If one sees a newborn son or daughter coming out of his abdomen in a dream, it means that such a child will be born and will grow to govern that household. As for one's liver in a dream, it represents knowledge, money, or children. If a man of knowledge sees his liver flying away from his body like birds in a dream, it means that he will forget his knowledge, or if one has children, they may die, or perhaps the government may seize his property even if he has nothing. If one sees himself eating his liver in a dream, it means earning his livelihood. If they are cooked in the dream, then they represent a lawful income, or they could mean gobbling up the property of one's children. If a liver is removed in a dream, it means the death of a child.

This interpretation applies if one is carried on a bier or a litter and his funeral is accompanied by crying and lamentation, except if he is buried in the dream. If one witnesses his burial in the dream, then it means that his case is hopeless and that he will be seized by the world. One's followers or assisting entourage will be as many as those who walk in his funeral in the dream. However, he will conquer people and ride over their shoulders. If one dies in his dream but does not have the look of dead people and there is no crying over his death or a funeral in the dream, it means that one of his properties will be torn down, or that a room in his house will collapse, or that a wall will cave in, or it could mean that a pillar will breakdown. Such a dream may also signify weakness in one's religious standing or blindness of his heart. Despite that, he will live a long life. If one dies in a dream and finds himself looking like a dead person, and if his body is washed and wrapped in a shroud, it also means weakness in his religion. All the sorrow and crying one sees in this case represent his rising in rank and promotion in the world. Death in a dream also signifies travels, or it could mean poverty. One's death and burial in his dream also means that he will die short of repentance. If one comes out of his grave after his burial in the dream, it means that he will repent for his sins before dying. Death in a dream also signifies marriage, for a deceased person is washed and perfumed, and a bridegroom also takes a bath and anoints himself with perfumes on his wedding day. If one dies and is carried over people's shoulders, though they do not bury him in the dream, it means that he will conquer his enemy, and should he qualify for leadership, he will attain it. To come back to life after dying in a dream means that one will become rich and dispel poverty, or it could mean that he will repent for his sins. This dream also means the safe homecoming of a traveller. The death of an unknown woman in a dream means absence of rain or dearth, and if she comes back to life in the dream, it means rain.

What a deceased person says about himself in a dream is true, for he has reached the abode of truth, and he can exercise no falsehood in that abode. If a deceased person tells something in a dream, and if it does not take place, then it means that one is experiencing confused dreams. If one sees a deceased person well dressed in a white or green garment, smiling and happy in a dream, it means that he is in that state one witnessed in his dream. Otherwise, if one sees him dishevelled, dirty, frowning, or crying in a dream, this also denotes his condition in the hereafter. If one sees a deceased person sick in a dream, it means that his condition is contingent upon the satisfaction of his debts and that he is awaiting the Divine justice to take its course. Performing a funeral prayer for deceased people in a dream means asking for forgiveness on their behalf or visiting their graves, or it could mean admonishing someone with a dead heart, or it could mean bidding farewell to travelling people or taking care of needy people.

If the deceased person's face looks dark or opaque in the dream, it means that he died as an unbeliever. If one sees a deceased person sprightly, pleasant, and casual in a dream, it means that one's dream is a mere hallucination, or that he is experiencing disturbed dreams, for dead people do not joke and have their duties to respond to. If one's deceased father or mother comes back to life in a dream, it means relief from distress and the abolishing of his fears.

A prison in a dream also represents the safe return of a traveller, or the death of a sick person. If one sees himself imprisoned and tied up by someone in authority in a dream, it represents adversities he wishes to be removed.

Quran

(Garden, Holy Book, The Last Revelation) In a dream, the holy Qur'an represents a garden because when one looks at it, it looks like a beautiful garden, and its verses are the fruit of knowledge and wisdom that the reader can pluck. Learning a Qur'anic verse, a saying of God's Prophet, a prophetic tradition, or a craft in a dream means richness after poverty, or guidance after heedlessness. If one sees himself in a dream reading from the pages of the holy Qur'an, it signifies honour, command, happiness, and victory. Reciting the Qur'an by heart and without reading the pages of the holy Book in a dream means proving to be true, or having a true claim, being pious, commanding what is good and forbidding what is evil. If one is told a verse from the holy Qur'an in a dream, he should understand it, memorize it, and comply with the same. If the verse reads about mercy or glad tidings or other admonitions in the dream, the interpretation of one's dream should be the same. If the Qur'anic verses recited in the dream connote advice, one should act upon it to reap its benefits. If one hears a Qur'anic verse containing a warning, promising punishment for the disbelievers, or announcing a swift retribution for their sins, then one should immediately repent for their sins, even if the verses relate to previous nations or times. If one sees himself reciting the Qur'an and understanding what it says in a dream, it denotes his vigilance, intelligence, faith, and spiritual awareness. If a Qur'anic verse is recited to someone, and if he does not agree with the divine judgement in the dream, it means that he will suffer harm from someone in authority, or that a punishment from God Almighty will soon befall him. If an unlettered person sees himself reading the holy Qur'an in a dream, it could also mean his death, or his reading of his records. If one sees himself reading the holy Qur'an without true interest in it in a dream, it means that he follows his mind, personal interpretations, and innovations. If one sees himself eating the pages of the holy Qur'an in a dream, it means that he earns his livelihood from his knowledge of it. If one sees himself completing the reading of the entire Qur'an in a dream, it means that a splendid reward from his Lord is awaiting him, and that he will get whatever he asks for. If a disbeliever sees himself reading the holy Qur'an in a dream, the verses of admonition will help him in his life, the verses of punishment will be his warning from God Almighty, and the parables will denote his need to contemplate the meaning. If one sees himself writing the verses of the holy Qur'an on slabs of mother-of-pearl, or on a piece of cloth in a dream, it means that he interprets it according to his liking. If one sees himself inscribing a Qur'anic verse on the ground in a dream, it means that he is an atheist. It is also said that reading the Qur'an in a dream means fulfillment of one's needs, clearing of one's heart, and establishment of one's success in his life. If one discovers that he has memorized the Qur'an in a dream, though in wakefulness he has not memorized it, it means that he will own a large property. Hearing the verses of the holy Qur'an, the strengthening of power, reaching a praiseworthy end to his life, and that one will be protected from the envy and jealousy of evildoing people. If a sick person sees himself reciting a verse from the holy Qur'an, but cannot remember to which chapter it belongs in the dream, it means that he will recover from his illness. Licking the holy Qur'an in a dream means that one has committed a major sin. Reciting the holy Qur'an in a dream means an increase in one's good deeds and rising in his station.

Resurrection

(Day of Reckoning, Day of Resurrection, Last Day, Reckoning, Rising of the dead, Trumpet of Resurrection) Seeing the Day of Resurrection, or Doomsday, in a dream is a serious warning for a sinner, or it could represent a warning for someone who is contemplating a sinful act. Seeing the Day of Resurrection in a dream also denotes justice. Being the only person resurrected on such a day means one's death. Standing up awaiting judgment on the Day of Resurrection in a dream means travels. If one sees himself and his wife being the only people who are brought for judgment on the grand Day of Gathering in a dream, it means that he is being unjust. If a warrior sees the Day of Resurrection in a dream, it means that by God's decree, the aggressor shall be defeated. The land of the grand gathering in a dream represents a chaste woman or a noble man. The blowing of the Trumpet of Resurrection in a dream represents the salvation of the righteous ones. Seeing any of the great, extraordinary events or signs that shall precede the Day of Resurrection in a dream means glad tidings for a believer who does good, and a warning for a disbeliever to correct himself and repent for his sins before it comes. Seeing the Day of Resurrection in a dream also denotes that some of the major signs are taking place, such as blood shedding, spread of evil, belligerence of atheism, pride about wealth, ruling of the working class, building high rises, the end of the era of kings on earth, or it could remind the person of the prophesied signs, such as the rising of the sun from the West, the emergence of a beast that will speak with a human tongue, the rising of the Imposter (arb. Dajjal, Antichrist), etcetera. Seeing the Day of Resurrection in a dream also represents the spread of evil, the presence of an extended police force, and the ruling of large armies and dictatorships around the world. Thus, seeing the Day of Resurrection in a dream is a reminder and a warning to the one who sees it. If one sees the graves splitting open, dead people resurrected back to life and are walking out of them, accompanied by their angels in a dream, it means that justice will prevail in that land. If one experiences the resurrection in a dream, then discovers that the world went back to continue its prior course, it means that justice will dominate that land for a while, then it will be followed by a tyranny that will be carried by people who are not even suspected to be of such character. Such a dream also could be interpreted to suit a person who is seeking the impossible, or one who is adamant in pursuing the path of wrongdoing, falsehood, and lies. Recognizing the imminent final signs of the Day of Reckoning in a dream means that one is unaware of his heedlessness, and such a dream constitutes a warning. If one's reckoning is easy in a dream, it denotes his wife's piety, compassion, and love for him. If one's reckoning is detailed and painful in a dream, then it represents major losses. If one's good deeds weigh heavier than his bad deeds in the dream, it means that his devotion is true and that his reward will be greater. If one sees himself carrying the scale to weigh his deeds in a dream, it denotes his righteousness and correctness. If one sees an angel handing him his records and telling him to read his book in a dream, it also means that he is on the right path. Walking on the bridge of the Day of Judgment, carrying one's records and crying in a dream means that one is praying for God's forgiveness and to ease his reckoning. If one sees Doomsday in a dream, it means that he will escape from dangerous enemies, or that perhaps a major trial will befall the dwellers of that place. If one crosses the Bridge of Judgement in a dream, it means that he will escape a major trial, or perhaps it could represent a major hurdle one may have to cross in this life. If one sees himself carrying his book of records in his right hand in a dream, it means that he will win righteousness, wealth, and honour. If one sees himself carrying his book of records in his left hand in a dream, it means that he will fall into sin and the consequent poverty and need of others, for wealth and adultery do not mix. If one witnesses the emergence of the Imposter (Antichrist) in a dream, it signifies new trends, innovations, and masses straying from the straight path. (Also see Intercession, Reckoning, Rising of the dead, Trumpet of Resurrection)

Sahi

Shade

(Changes, Cover, Shelter) Witnessing a shade in the summertime in a dream means comfort, profits, honour, or becoming the protege of a great person.

Shade in a dream also represents the governor of one's town, a man of knowledge, a pious person, an ascetic, or a religious student on the path. Seeking refuge in the shade away from the heat of the sun in a dream means comfort, profits, or escaping from harm. As for a woman, shade in her dream represents her husband. If an unmarried woman sees herself seeking the shade in a dream, it means her marriage and that she will marry a rich and powerful person. If one finds it cold to sit in the shade in his dream, then if he seeks to sit under the sun to warm himself up, it means that his poverty will be dispelled, for cold in a dream also means poverty. (Also see Shadow)

Shadow

(Under the sun, in the dark, or otherwise.) In a dream, a shadow represents changes affecting one's life in the world and his elevation or abasement. A shadow in a dream also means guidance, repentance, true monotheism, and contemplating the Maker and His creation. If one moves but does not see his shadow moving in a dream, it means abrogating the laws, discarding what is permissible, adopting what is unlawful, death, becoming motionless, or losing one's senses. The same interpretation applies if one's shadow disappears under the sunlight, or the moonlight, or in the night lights, or if his reflection disappears from the water surface, or any shiny surface. If one sees his shadow dancing in a dream, it means falsehood, lies, stealing people's money, shifting one's faith according to one's interests, or that he criticizes the conduct of God's Prophet, upon whom be peace. Dancing one's shadow over a carpet in a dream means invoking evil spirits, speaking their words after being possessed by them, and it means trials, temptations, and evil. (Also see Shade)

Skies

(Castle, Child, Firmament, Heavens, House, Mother, Oath, Ocean, Prison, Teacher, Town, Wife, Wonders) In a dream, the sky represents itself. Whatever descends from it or comes from that direction in a dream will materialize. If fire falls from the sky over people's homes in a dream, it means plagues, illness, pleurisy, smallpox, or death and destruction. If fire falls over the marketplace in the dream, it means higher prices. If it falls over the fields and farmlands in the dream, it means that the crops could either burn, freeze, or be struck by a swarm of locusts or by other harmful insects. What falls from the sky indicates prosperity, such as honey, oil, figs, barley, or money etc. In the dream, it means good rain and a good harvest for that year. Whatever falls from the sky of good or bad, may represent the government and the hardships it inflicts upon the people, or the benefits it may bring them. Climbing to the sky with a rope, a ladder, or using a staircase in a dream means exaltation, rising in station, good luck, and support. If one climbs without a common medium in a dream, it means fear and arrogance. If his intention in climbing is to spy on others in the dream, it means that he may work as a spy. If one descends safely from the sky in the dream, it means that he will escape and be spared the consequences of his sin. If he falls and breaks or fractures a bone or so in the dream, it means that he may suffer such an accident in wakefulness. If a sick person sees himself climbing to the sky, and if he does not return to earth in the dream, it means that he may die from his illness. If he comes back in the dream, it means that his illness will increase and his difficulties will reach their peak, though God willing, he will recover from his illness, unless he falls into a hole in a dream. In that case, the hole represents his grave. If one sees the sky shooting arrows causing people wounds, injuries, and bleeding in a dream, it means taxes and confiscation of properties by the government. If the arrows hit people's ears and eyes only in the dream, it means that major trials and temptations will strike everyone. If the arrows fall without causing harm to anyone, and if people rush to collect them in the dream, they represent a booty that people will come to win, or a divine gift people will enjoy. To rise close to the sky in a dream means nearness to one's Lord. This is particularly true for pious people and for true believers. Nearing the sky in a dream also represents a supplication needing an immediate answer, and God willing, such prayers will be answered. Nearing the sky in a dream also could mean going before the governor of one's town, or any person from whom one may need something, i.e., a teacher, a man of knowledge, a father, or a wife. If one sees the sky falling over his head in a dream, it means that the roof of his house may cave in, or that he will die from an illness he already suffers. If one sees himself climbing and entering the sky in a dream, it means that he will die as a martyr. If one sees himself standing in the sky in a dream, it means that he will command or admonish others.

If one sees the sky green in a dream, it means prosperity and a good harvest. If one sees the sky turned into iron in a dream, it means drought or scarcity of rain. If one falls from the sky in a dream, it means that he may abandon his faith, become a reprobate, or that he may be struck with a major calamity that will be driven by an unjust person. If the iron sky splits open, and if an old man appears from behind it in the dream, such an old person represents the grandfather of the people of that town or tribe. Consequently, people will enjoy a good harvest, prosperity, and happiness. If it is a young man who appears in the dream, then he represents an enemy and an evil that may befall the people following such a dream. If a sheep appears from the sky in a dream, then it means profits. If camels appear, then they represent rain. If a lion appears in the dream, it represents an unjust ruler. If the sky becomes one solid piece in the dream, it means drought. If it rips apart and its doors become wide open in the dream, then it means rain or an answer to people's prayers. If one sees himself reaching out and touching the sky in a dream, it means that he is seeking an important goal, and that he will fail to attain it. If one sees himself rising near the lower heavens in a dream, it means worldly gains, or profits and status in either material or spiritual realms. If one looks toward the sky, whether to the East or the West, in a dream, it means travel. If one sees himself stealing the sky and hiding it in a jar in a dream, it means that he may steal a copy of the holy Qur'an and hide it with his wife. If one sees the sky wide open in a dream, it means blessings and benefits. If one sees himself rising toward the sky in a flat posture in a dream, it means that he will become emaciated or suffer losses in his business. On the other hand, if one sees himself rising without difficulty and without being laid on his back in a dream, it means exaltation, success, and safety from any harm that could be driven by one's enemies. If one bites the sky in a dream, it means that a calamity will strike at him, or it could mean business losses, failure to attain one's goals, or an argument with one's superior at work. If one sees himself touring the sky, then returning to earth in a dream, it means that he may become an astronomer or an astrologer and gain fame in his field. If one sees himself leaning his back to the sky in a dream, it means that he may win a leadership position, or win a victory over his opponents. If one sees himself in the sky having a form different than that of human beings in a dream, it means that he may leave this world unblessed. If one sees himself hanging down with a rope from the sky in a dream, it means that he will govern after someone else's, or inherit his post. However, if the rope breaks in the dream, it means that he may lose such an opportunity. If one sees a lighted candle in the sky whose lustre and brightness dims the light of the sun in a dream, it represents a solar eclipse. If one sees the sky being built in his presence in a dream, it means that he lies in his testimonies. Falling from the sky in a dream could also be a warning against falling into sin. Falling from the sky in a dream with one's head down means longevity. If one sees himself in the sky but cannot remember when he entered it in a dream, it means that, God willing, he is already in paradise. If one sees radiance, or scintillating rays of light coming through the sky in a dream, it means guidance. If he sees dark clouds coming through the sky in a dream, it means that he could stray from God's path. If he sees a scourge descending from the sky in a dream, it means that plagues and adversities will befall the people as a chastisement for their sins, or for crimes they have committed. As for gnostics and people of knowledge, seeing the sky in a dream means clarity, vision, placing one's interests in heavenly matters, or travelling to distant lands, or engaging in importing and exporting goods. Climbing into the sky in a dream also means falsehood, false beliefs, lies, or talking about God Almighty without the proper knowledge or guidance. Climbing into the sky in a dream also could mean seeking one's livelihood, satisfying one's needs, or fulfilling a promise. Skies in a dream also represent the ocean because of their vastness and the countless number of creation living therein, or they could represent the ripening of fruits, or the conclusion of one's work, or they could represent one's helmet, armour, wife, money, religion, death, or they could indicate slander and falsehood against someone who descends from them after being raised, and they could mean making peace with one's enemies, or they could represent the shares allotted for each one of God's creation, the good and the bad, people's sustenance and that of beasts, gains, losses, blessings or afflictions.

Spiritual gathering

(Admonition, Fellowship, Gathering, Meeting, Religious meeting) If one who does not qualify to be a spiritual leader or a scholar sees himself holding a religious gathering and admonishing people to do good and to forbid evil in a dream, it means distress and an illness for which he is praying hard for it to be lifted by God's leave. However, if he does speak wisdom during such a spiritual gathering in his dream, it means praying hard to have one's distress and illness lifted by God's leave. Consequently, and God willing, he will recover from his illness and be able to dispel his adversities. His condition will change from tightness to abundance. He will repay his debts and overcome his oppressors. If one sees a spiritual gathering where God's Name is glorified, the holy Qur'an is read, and wisdom is spoken in his dream, it means that such a place will be established as a spiritual centre or as a mosque. Such a place will also become a centre where spiritual leaders and governors will gather and speak. If love songs of a light nature are played during such a gathering in a dream, it means that falsehood will overtake such a place. If one sees himself sitting on the centre stage, in the middle of learned people and religious scholars in a dream, it means that he will receive greater knowledge and honour in his life. A gathering that involves a court case or a marriage in a dream represents an unknown adversity that will safely pass.

Sitting in the centre stage in a spiritual gathering in a dream represents one's station or rank, or it could represent one's wife, child, property, or personal secretary.

Seeing the Torah in a dream also means finding what is lost, welcoming a long-awaited traveller, or it could represent someone who follows the Jewish faith. As for an unmarried person, owning a Torah in a dream means getting married to a woman from a different religion, or it could mean marrying a woman without her parents' consent. Seeing the Torah in a dream may also mean extensive travels. If one's wife is pregnant, it means that she will bear a child who resembles his father. If one's wife is pregnant, and if he sees himself holding the Torah in a dream, it means that she will beget a daughter, for the gender of the word Torah is feminine. It also means that he will mix with evil companions. Similar interpretations are given to carrying other scriptures. To see the Torah, or the Evangel, or the Gospel in a dream is as though one has seen God's Prophet Muhammad, upon whom be peace, because his name is mentioned in all three of them. It could also mean betrayal, negating a covenant, or desiring what is shoddy.

In a dream, the sound of this trumpet invokes fear, bringing news that causes shivers and trembling in people's hearts. If one hears it alone, then the news is exclusive to him. If everyone hears its sound in the dream, then it is a public affair. If one hears the sound of the trumpet and anticipates that everyone has heard it too in a dream, it means plagues and adversities, for the first blow indicates the end of the world and the death of everyone in it. The second blow indicates their resurrection back to life, which will be followed by the Grand Gathering for the Day of Judgment. If a sick person hears the first blow in a dream, it means that he will shortly recover from his illness. If the town is afflicted with a calamity, then hearing it in a dream means that people's adversities will be lifted. If there is a drought, it will end, and food prices will go back to normal. If one hears the second blow of the trumpet of resurrection in a dream, it means prosperity, revealing what is hidden, exposing long-kept secrets, recovering from an illness, release from prison, reunion of beloveds, or meeting with people who have just arrived from a long journey.

Underground granary

(Granary, Pantry, Storage room, Subterranean storehouse) An underground grain storage house in a dream represents a caring mother, a single parent, or a foster mother. This interpretation comes from the example of a fetus in its mother's womb and its dependence on her to supply the necessary nourishment. Once the stored food is consumed, it is necessary to depend on a new source. If one sees an underground granary demolished or filled with dirt in a dream, and if his mother is sick, it means that she may die from her illness. If one's wife is pregnant, it means that she will soon deliver her infant. A demolished underground granary in a dream means finding a buyer for one's grains, and the dirt that fills the storehouse in the dream represents money. If the stored grain turns into dirt in a dream, it means that market prices will come down, or it could mean the loss of one's investment. Seeing a granary filled with food in a dream means that one's wife is pregnant. If a fire consumes the stored grain in a dream, it means rising prices. If one sees a granary filled with sugar or dates in a dream, it means that prices will stabilize and become attainable, while the type of food stored therein will be in limited supplies, and consequently, its price will rise. If a sick person falls into an underground granary in a dream, it means his death, or drowning in the sea, or facing highway robbery. As for one who is engaged in a fight, an underground granary in his dream represents a prison or a visit to a brothel.
