Seeing “ugly dark face”
in your dream

• Crescents assembled in the sky: Will go on hajj.

• A crescent rising from the east or the west and people admiring it on the first or last night of the Islamic month: Great news will come from that direction. If it were gleaming, scintillating, or sparkling, the news would be good. If, on the contrary, it was dark, made of brass or copper or looking like a snake or a scorpion, the news would be bad. The greater its size or its evolution in the sky, the more wide-ranging the news would be.

The bier symbolizes a good man who has helped many people repent.

• Seeing a bier: Mean people will be destroyed by a hypocrite.

• Seeing oneself on a bier:  (1) Money will increase.  (2) Will befriend other Muslims as if they were brothers, in view of the fact that the bier is a kind of bed or couch—the same Arabic expression used in the Quranic verse that reads: “And We remove whatever rancor may be in their breasts. As brethren, face to face, 
(they rest) on couches raised.”  (“Al-Hijr,” verse 47.)

•  (c) Will follow an influential person and earn money and obtain other benefits through him.

• Seizing a raven  (a small, dark bird with a red beak and red legs): 
(1) Influence or a leading position, achieved by merit, if eligible.  (2) The dreamer will tell the truth or make a just statement that will not be accepted or taken well.

• A raven diving on the dreamer or landing on him: The dreamer will be assaulted by bandits.

(Copyist; Handwriting) A calligrapher in a dream represents knowledge, charting and clarity. Otherwise, a calligrapher may represent distress, trouble, unhappiness, seeing everything dark, or he could represent uptightness. A calligrapher in a dream also represents someone who teaches people tricks, for writing is a trick. (Also see Writer)

If unknown, she symbolises the current year. If she is beautiful, the year will bring good fortune. If ugly, the year will prove a disaster.

In season, an eggplant in a dream means earnings with little effort, while seeing an eggplant out of season in a dream denotes negativity and disliked. Eating an eggplant in a dream means falling prices. An eggplant in a dream also represents the element of arrogance, self adulation, perfidy, cheating others, and a man with many faces. As for fishermen, seeing eggplants in a dream means a good catch, joy and success.

If one sees himself turning in his sleep and putting his face down, or resting on his stomach in a dream, it means that he will turn away from his faith and lose both his earnings in this world and in the hereafter. If one sees the reverse, which is turning from resting on one's stomach to lying on his back in a dream, it means that he will repent for his sins. It also represents his willingness to face the people and to correct his wrongdoing. If the subject is a woman, then sleeping on her stomach in a dream means that she is refusing to sleep with her husband. (Also see Running away; Take a flight; Sleep)

It symbolises an attractive and beautiful non-Arab Lady. And if the peahen is ugly it symbolises a beautiful woman but not capable of loving or beloved nor reliable.

According to Al-Nabulsi, if the dreamer has too many aspirations and is a vain person, any dream involving flying is null and void. For others:

• Dreaming repeatedly of flying:  (1) The dreamer has many wishes. 
(2) The dreamer is frivolous and uncontrollable when angry.  (3) The dreamer is happy. 
(4) The dreamer is superstitious and draws an evil omen from certain things.

• Flying: Travelling. The best dream in this section is that in which the flying is in the direction of the
Qiblah, the place toward which worshipers turn their faces when they pray. At first, it was Al-Aqsa Mosque in Al-Quds 
(Jerusalem), and now it is Mecca (Makkah).

If the wind is not accompanied with a good witness or a cheering element in the dream, then it means cessation of blessings for that land. If the wind is accompanied with a stridulous or a shrill sound in the dream, it means a severe punishment for that place. If a general of an army sees himself leading his soldiers and is preceded by a stormy wind in a dream, it means that he will be victorious and that he will triumph over his enemy. However, if a storm faces him at his arrival to the battlefield in the dream, it means that he will lose his battle.

The cheeks symbolize, among other things, the person’s endeavours.

• Having beautiful cheeks: Fertility and joy.

• Having ugly cheeks: Harm and disease.

• Having cheeks larger than usual: More dignity, stamina, and charisma.

(See Face)

Garlic means eulogizing someone in a vulgar manner or for some obscene act or a sin.

• Eating cooked garlic: Will repent for a sin.

• Smelling garlic: The dreamer has done something ugly, like eating up someone else’s money.

(Auditorium; Large hall) A large hall in a dream means comfort, overcoming financial difficulties, a helping wife, a good mistress of the house, a high ranking position that involves little danger, a highway sign, a praiseworthy son, a hard working employee, or a good investment. If the hall is dark, dirty and filled with insects and spider webs in the dream, then it means the opposite.

• Having bad breath: The dreamer talks too much in praising himself and slandering others,
which will get him into trouble.

• Having bad breath despite all efforts: The dreamer is committing plenty of sins and abominations.

• Somebody else having bad breath: The dreamer will hear ugly or obscene words from him.

• Cows assembled in a place: Disturbances or riots.

• An identified number of cows entering a city, following each other: Years commensurate with the size of the cows and in the same order. If they entered a coastal city together or at random similar ships will arrive. Otherwise, they would be a series of intrigues very much alike, as the cows faces resemble each other. Yellow or red cows would automatically mean disease and epidemics.

• Cows of different colours with terrible, dreadful horns and fire or smoke coming out of their mouths or noses: Coming enemy soldiers or some kind of assault.

• A pregnant cow: A hopefully fertile year or the dreamer’s wife will become pregnant.

A fireplace in a dream also represents a state, a government, joblessness or fleeing from one's enemy. If the fireplace or the stove is lit with no food to cook or water to boil over it in the dream, it means that the head of the household, the butler or the house keeper will become angry and infuriated by someone's slander or backbiting. If the cooking pot in the dream is interpreted to represent the wife, then the fireplace would represent her husband who faces the adversities and hardships of life. On the other hand, if the fireplace in the dream is interpreted to represent the wife, then the cooking pot would be her husband who is always sitting on fire.

If an unknown, ugly camel is seen appearing in an area of city or village it means either an enemy will make his appearance in that place or that place will be devastated by floods, plague or disease. But if the camel is seen as beautiful and healthy then the end result of the above calamities will be favourable and a means of blessings.

Dreaming of tubercles on the body and face symbolizes too many sins.

If a thief sees himself carrying musk in a dream, it means that he will cease robbing people, for a sweet fragrance points to its carrier and exposes what he hides. Musk in a dream also means money, gold, comfort, glad tidings, good news, or innocence. The same interpretation is given to carnation, clove, nutmeg and other dark seeds, all of which mean triumph and happiness. Grinding them in a dream means receiving praises. Offering them whole in a dream means doing good to an ungrateful person. (Also see Amber; Anoint; Galia moschata)
