Islamic Interpretation
In a dream, a neck represents an embrace, a donation with terms, a legal will, or a conditional endowment. The neck and the shoulders in a dream represent one's trust or trustworthiness. A healthy, strong neck in a dream means trustworthiness and the ability to repay one's debts. Wounds, festering, or purulence in one's neck in a dream mean betraying God's trust. If one sees a nice bird sitting on its neck in a dream, it means benefits or an alibi. If it is not a gentle bird, then it becomes a bad omen or a rebuke. If one sees a necklace, a rope, a wire, or a thread wrapped around his neck in a dream, it means fulfilling a promise, acquiring knowledge, status, and honour. (Also see Body)
