Islamic Interpretation
A policeman in a dream symbolizes safety and tranquility, one's prayers, a clandestine friendship, a concealed affection, defense against Satan or his followers, or perhaps one's protective guardian. A policeman can also represent the angel of death, a sudden fright, or deep anxiety. Should a policeman arrive with his assistants, it portends alarm, grief, afflictions, chastisement, or peril. He may further denote a malevolent person, a treacherous and injurious beast, or a lion. If a person of authority dreams of forming a friendship with a policeman, it signifies he will establish a new pact, enact a legal reform, or draft and sign a new charter. Should one see himself incarcerating a policeman, it indicates he will become embroiled in a political struggle. (Also see Crocodile, Lieutenant, Mercury)
