Islamic Interpretation
The wick of a candle in a dream symbolizes a household manager, an attendant, or a domestic steward. Should the wick be entirely consumed by flame, it signifies the death of such a person. If a spark ignites and burns a piece of cotton cloth, it indicates that the individual may succumb to or be harmed by a wicked deed. The extinguishing of the wick foretells that an ailing member of that household may perish from his sickness, or that the family will learn of a relative's death. (Also see Lamp stand)
