Weeds

Seeing weeds in a dream symbolizes a person who is loved and tolerated by his family, yet brings them no real benefit or support. Such an individual may consume space and resources without contributing positively, much like weeds that grow among useful plants. This vision also represents a person who is in constant disagreement with those closest to him, creating friction and discord within his own circle. At the same time, he seeks closeness and companionship with people who harbor envy or ill will toward him. He distances himself from sincere friends and well-wishers while remaining near his enemies, thereby harming himself through poor judgment and misplaced loyalty. (Also see Grass, Unwanted)

Wheat

In a dream, wheat symbolizes honestly acquired wealth. Purchasing wheat signifies an increase in one's income or in the number of his offspring. Should one observe a ruler inserting a rod into a measure of grain, it foretells inflation. Sowing wheat denotes performing a righteous act to seek divine favor. Walking amid wheat fields represents serving God. If wheat is planted but barley emerges, it indicates hypocrisy. If it yields blood, it signifies profit from usurious gains.

Gathering sheaves of wheat or placing them in a vessel predicts profits corresponding to the number collected. Harvesting wheat out of season heralds death, ruin, deceit, and calamity for that region's inhabitants. Harvesting green stalks means the passing of a youth, while dry, yellow stalks mean the death of an elder. Exchanging wheat for barley signifies abandoning Quranic recitation for an interest in poetry. Seeing wheat upon one's bed symbolizes one's spouse. Planting its seeds signifies conception. Wheat also represents a prudent individual who manages his affairs wisely and spends his money charitably without wastefulness.
