Swallowing

Category: Action

Islamic Interpretation

To swallow something while still chewing it in a dream signifies financial pressure, accumulated debts, or creditors and collectors pressing for repayment. It reflects haste, constraint, or being forced to accept an obligation before one is prepared. Swallowing dust or sand in a dream denotes poverty, hardship, or distressing circumstances. It may also symbolize greed, humiliation, or the act of giving someone a warning or disapproving look. In certain contexts, it can indicate bribing a person in authority or seeking favour through improper means. (Also see Chewing, Food)
