Islamic Interpretation
(Harrow, Mattock, Plow, Scoop, Trowel) In a dream, a shovel represents a wife for an unmarried person. She will keep no secret, though she will spare no expense to save her husband from poverty. A shovel in a dream also means dispelling distress, overcoming trouble, or satisfying one's debts. A shovel in a dream may also represent a trustworthy person one can depend on during hard times or in times of adversities. Holding a shovel in a dream means receiving benefits and blessings, for a shovel collects dirt as well as valuables. A shovel in a dream may also represent a woman, profits, or business activities.
