Islamic Interpretation
Seeing a pleat or fold in a dream symbolizes forgiveness, pardon, and overlooking the faults of others, as well as concealing matters or restraining and suppressing one’s anger. It can indicate patience, self-control, and choosing tolerance over retaliation. At the same time, a pleat may signify a reduction in livelihood, depletion of sustenance, or narrowing of one’s means. In some contexts, it also alludes to closure and finality, pointing to the completion of a phase of life or even the approaching end of one’s lifespan, depending on the surrounding signs in the dream.
