Islamic Interpretation
In a dream, stockings symbolize wealth and protection as long as they are not worn. When they are seen being worn, they indicate losses in business or trade. If one’s mother is alive, this vision may signify traveling with her to another land, or it may point to her being separated from her son. New socks with a pleasant scent signify regular payment of obligatory alms, good moral reputation, and lawful increase of wealth. Old socks or those with foul odors indicate neglecting the required alms, lack of generosity, blameworthy conduct, and wealth that will soon diminish.
