12 entries · Full A to Z dictionary

People in dreams fall into two groups: the ones you know, a mother, a father, a child, someone who has died, and the roles, a king, a judge, a scholar, a thief, an old man. The Qur'an gives the first group its most famous dream, a boy who saw eleven stars, the sun and the moon bowing, and the second its most careful one, a king asking his court to read a vision.

On the dead, the one recorded case ends with the Prophet making a prayer, not giving a reading, and the entry draws the cautious conclusion from it. On the roles, the dictionaries read by what the person stands for in your life. Each entry says how far the texts go, and the answer is often not far.
