Islamic Interpretation
(Armor, Shield) In a dream, a coat of mail symbolizes defense against an adversary. Crafting one signifies building a fortress. Wearing one denotes attaining leadership. For a merchant, wearing it means his trade expands, fully shielded from loss. If understood as a friend, it represents a loyal ally who assists when needed. It can also signify a strong, self‑sufficient son who aids his father. Donning such armor is a blessing and a favor from a third party who will consistently support and defend the dreamer. It offers protection for one’s spouse, possessions, and affairs. For a woman, wearing it means having a husband and security, or it may indicate a supportive brother, a caring son, wealth, garments, or powerful backers. Wearing a full suit of mail can also mean fathering a robust son or undertaking a journey.
