Islamic Interpretation
Walking through rough land and then suddenly finding oneself on open plains means overcoming hardships. Traversing roadless terrain signifies strain, trials, hard labor, stagnation in business, or reflecting on the vast opportunities in life. Such terrain also represents fear of wrongdoing, deviation from the path of righteousness, or following innovative ways. Roadless terrain can also indicate dullness or lack of insight, whereas plains symbolize intelligence, clarity, and sharp understanding. (Also see Road)
