Islamic Interpretation
Presenting a slingshot to a sick person in a dream signifies moving him to another place, or it may allude to his death and burial. A slingshot can also represent the removal of a guardian from office, recovery from substance addiction, or the role of a messenger. Using a slingshot to hurl stones at people means rightly calling down a powerful curse upon them. Seeing a woman throwing stones at oneself with a slingshot indicates sorcery or witchcraft. A slingshot further symbolizes firm and truthful words. Holding it while preparing to shoot reflects one’s resolve and strength to speak what is just and true. Carrying a slingshot without using it means repentance from a sin.
