Islamic Interpretation
(arb.) Performing one's ritual ablution but without water in a dream means the nearing of solutions to one's problems. Tayammum is usually performed instead of the regular ablution in the absence of water, or because of a preventing illness, etc.. However, observing the religious rites and substance of the act remains solemn. Tayammum in a dream may also mean a journey or an illness. If the act is performed with a dry surface such as wood, stone, dry sand, earth, or a substance that does not stick to the skin in a dream, it means that one's travel plans may be infeasible, or it could mean that he will become cheap, or pursue his evil desires. To perform tayammum while water is accessible in a dream means falsehood and hypocrisy. It also means hoping for forgiveness while adamantly pursuing the avenues of wrongdoing, giving preference to one's interests in the world over his lasting benefits in the hereafter, preferring masturbation over lawful sexual intercourse, or being a hypocrite, and it could mean recovering from a terminal illness, or release from prison.
