To dream of illness often signifies a spiritual or moral malady, such as hypocrisy, negligence in religious duties, or a decline in piety. For a healthy dreamer, it may paradoxically foretell a year of good health or signal victory over an enemy, while for a warrior, it warns of a wound. Specific interpretations vary: a sick wife suggests her religious negligence; riding an ox or swine in sickness foretells death; a fever indicates pressure from a ruler. Illness generally points to financial waste, disobedience, or impending calamity, yet a terminal illness can paradoxically mean forgiveness of sins and divine pleasure. The sickness of others—like a child, friend, or ruler—carries diverse meanings, from the child's death or parental distress to a ruler's religious failure. A plague symbolizes drought but prosperity for physicians and undertakers. Ultimately, illness in a dream reflects themes of distress, loss, repentance, and the complex interplay between worldly suffering and spiritual condition. (Also see Thief)

(Arabic: Junub. A condition of ceremonial uncleanness preventing the observance of prayers. Excrement, Seed, Water) Within a dream, finding oneself in a state of ritual impurity suggests neglecting essential devotional duties. Following Islamic teachings, maintaining purity is necessary even during mundane daily pursuits. To see oneself praying without the mandated ablution in a dream indicates flaws in one's religious observance, though it may alternatively signify a pledge to dedicate oneself to divine service. Experiencing ritual impurity in a vision can also symbolize perplexity. If one is in such a state and locates no water for purification within the dream, it represents hardships and an incapacity to meet worldly necessities or to fulfill spiritual hopes in the afterlife. Cleansing oneself or laundering garments soiled by impurity in a dream equates to discharging owed obligations to another.

This imagery extends to signify transformative positive shifts such as attaining wealth after poverty, gaining knowledge after ignorance, or achieving reconciliation with adversaries. However, for a bedridden person, it portends death, and its smoke hints at potential danger. Incense further represents fervent love or passion, and its use can indicate employing spiritual means—like amulets or charms—to ward off envy, nullify sorcery, or intentionally invoke peace, tranquility, and material gain, though it may also allude to actions like bribery, disclosing secrets, or currying favor for personal advancement.

(Lunacy, Frenzy, Madness, Mental disturbance) Within a dream, madness or any related state signifies affluence, virtue, and honor. Such a vision can also denote a craving for earthly pleasures, celebrations, or social enjoyment for those who pursue such engagements. If one behaves without reason due to some life event in the dream, it signifies gains acquired through usurious means. Observing oneself in a state of profound joy and exhilaration in a vision suggests entry into paradise. Broadly, madness corresponds to profits that match the extent of one's irrational conduct in the dream. The intensity of the madness witnessed may foretell the magnitude of forthcoming wealth. Yet, such riches will likely be expended in wrongful pursuits and in the fellowship of a corrupt associate. Dreaming of insanity can also be understood as coming into an inheritance. A son's madness in a father's dream represents advantages for the father. A woman's madness in a vision indicates a bountiful harvest for that year. This condition in a dream is also interpreted as being consumed by passionate love.

Category: Action

(Offense, Revilement, Profanity, Defamation) Dishonoring someone in a dream may represent the honor of the one casting aspersions, and the lack of merit in the person who is dishonored. An exception to this reading exists if the person insulting another in the dream harbors dubious intentions, and the one affronted in the vision is due respect. It is also held that the one insulted or reviled in the dream might be indebted to their aggressor and must settle what is owed. If the insulter holds a superior social standing, then the victim in the dream is of greater worth than their assailant. Nonetheless, generally, the person abused in the dream emerges ultimately triumphant in waking life. (Also see Insulting)

Category: Action

Insulting or dishonouring someone in a dream carries grave meaning, symbolizing extreme wrongdoing and, in its most severe sense, indicating murder or the destruction of another’s rights, honor, or safety. Insulting ignorant people in a dream, however, signifies reproaching them for their behavior and compelling them toward righteousness, guidance, and moral correction rather than harm.

In a dream, all intoxicating substances point to suspicion, anxiety, and uncertainty regarding one’s wealth, the lawfulness of one’s income, the legitimacy of one’s offspring, or the religious validity of one’s marriage. Drinking alcohol in a dream signifies defeat in a conflict. Using drugs or intoxicants in a disgraceful manner in a dream indicates apostasy, loss of honor, denial of truth, corruption of one’s wife, or the utterance of profanity. This is because the original materials and herbs used to prepare such substances are pure in their natural state, but when combined and consumed to induce intoxication in a dream, they bring about opposite and corrupting effects.

Seeing an irreligious person seated before a plate of honey yet refusing to eat from it signifies ingratitude toward God Almighty, denial of His countless blessings, and failure to acknowledge divine favors. A garden filled with irreligious people represents one’s children in their infancy, indicating raw nature, undeveloped understanding, and a state that has not yet been shaped by guidance. An irreligious person may also symbolize a newly planted crop or young plant, and if he appears as a seed that is later covered again with soil, it reflects concealment, dormancy, or the early stage of growth before clarity, maturity, or belief emerges. (Also see Disbelief)

Category: Prophets

Seeing God’s prophet Ishaq, peace be upon him, in a dream signifies trials, adversities, and periods of hardship that test patience and faith, yet they ultimately lead to relief and divine support. For one who has a disobedient or runaway son, such a vision foretells the child’s return, repentance, and restoration of obedience and family harmony. The dream also heralds glad tidings, inner peace, and tranquillity after distress, though it may indicate suffering persecution or injustice from influential people of one’s town or from relatives, followed by God Almighty’s intervention, restoring honor, dignity, and integrity. Seeing Ishaq in his most radiant and beautiful form is a sign of abundant blessings and joyful news, indicating that one’s descendants will include leaders, governors, and righteous individuals. This vision further represents emerging from constricted circumstances into ease, turning from heedlessness to guidance, from poverty to wealth, and from disobedience toward parents to renewed filial obedience. If one sees himself transformed into Ishaq or wearing his robe, it signifies approaching danger or nearness to death, followed by divine rescue and preservation of life.

Proclaiming the two testimonies of faith, "There is no god but Allah, Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah," represents deliverance from distress, guidance after heedlessness, a return to one's parents or a deserted place, and the resumption of righteous earlier principles. For a Muslim, reciting these testimonies in a dream foretells bearing truthful witness in a court of justice or becoming renowned for one's honesty and integrity.

Within a dream, experiencing an itch signifies destitution and distress stemming from the burdens imposed by an exacting spouse and offspring. If the itching in the vision leads to bleeding or the discharge of pus, it denotes that one shall obtain their desires. If not, one's struggle to secure sustenance will be protracted. To behold oneself itching in a dream also means one will inquire into the affairs of kin and be pained by their circumstances. Should the itching appear persistent with no relief in sight within the dream, it foretells suffering from an intolerable condition in waking life. Witnessing people along a path afflicted by itching in a vision indicates they will acquire wealth, but accompanied by vexation—a state for which they will become known.
