Islamic Interpretation
When a ruler or well-known person sees his gatekeepers or guards standing in a dream, it indicates negligence in properly carrying out their responsibilities. Seeing them seated suggests an even clearer lapse in fulfilling their duties. The governor’s gatekeeper in a dream symbolizes good news and often represents an eminent individual whose counsel is sought, one upon whom both the influential and the common people rely to gain access. The keeper of the gate may also signify suspension, delay, or obstruction of entry.
