Seeing “dead person holding money”
in your dream

If it is the grave of a rich person in the dream, then it means becoming rich or receiving an inheritance. If one sees the deceased person alive in his grave in a dream, it means that such money will constitute unlawful earnings, while in the first instance, the knowledge or wisdom one is seeking will be true, except if the person in the grave is dead in the dream. A stone tomb or a sarcophagus in a dream means profits, a war prisoner, a booty or exposing one's personal secrets. (Also see Burial; Cemetery; Exhume; Sarcophagus; Shrine; Tower)

• Seeing a person’s grave being turned into a house, a shop, or a village: The family of the defunct will build a house there.

• Dreaming of entering a grave without being carried on a bier: Will buy an empty house.

• Standing by a grave: Will commit a sin, in view of a verse in the Holy Quran that reads: “And never 
(O Muhammad) pray for one of them who dieth, nor stand by his grave. Lo! they disbelieved in Allah and His messenger, and they died while they were evildoers.” 
(“Al-Taubah” [Repentance], verse 84.)

• Standing by one’s grave and looking at it: Will repent and sins will be forgiven.

• Seeing a well-off person roaming about in a graveyard: That person will go broke 
(because the dead do not carry any money).

• A man dreaming of someone dreaming of him that he is having sex with his mother, sister, brother, or similar prohibited relations, seen as dead in the dream: He is not sustaining them as he should, but will change his attitude and be fair to them. It could also mean trouble or worries or, on the contrary, benefit to both parties. If they are alive, it means the reverse and that he does not have much affection for them. In case, according to his dream, the act took place during the Muslims  sacred months, he would go to
Mecca (Makkah) for the pilgrimage.

• An identified dead person making love to a living one: The latter will get some benefit from a bequest of the heirs of the former, be it material or otherwise.

It represents an influential but a mean and wicked person. If a swarm of wasps is seen attacking some one it means he will soon become aware of rumours concerning him caused by mean and wicked persons.

The spear symbolizes influence, an acquisition, a wrong move or a fault, a woman, a son, a brother, a friend ready to defend the dreamer, a truthful testimony, or a journey.
A spear without iron represents a daughter who will have as many blessings as there are dents in it.

• A king or chief seeing his spear growing excessively: Will be unjust to his subjects.

• Fighting the enemies with a spear: Will make illicit gains.

• Being mounted on a horse or a camel and holding a spear: Dignity, influence, authority, and prosperity.

• Holding a spear and walking in the marketplace or simply holding it: Will have a male child. A dentate spear means that such a boy will prevail over his folk and shield them by sacrificing himself if necessary.

• Making love to one’s mother known to be dead in the dream: Will meet her if she is alive.

• Making love to one’s dead mother: The dreamer will die, because mother is synonym for earth.

• Having sex with one’s mother in her grave: Death.

• A traveller dreaming that he is making love to his mother: Will return to her from his journey.

• A poor man or a person whose mother is wealthy dreaming that he is having sex with her: 
(1) Will obtain all that he wishes from her.  (2) She will die and he will inherit from her.

• A sick man dreaming of having sex with his mother: Will recover.

• Making love to one’s living mother:  (1) Will be inimical to the father. 
(2) If the father is ill: The father will die and the son will look after his mother as a son and a husband. 
(3) If the son is hostile to his mother: She will show him love and affection. 
(4) The dreamer is good-natured, for nature is the mother of mankind.  (5) If the son is involved in a feud over some property or a piece of land and is trying to purchase it: He will win. 
(6) If the son is a farmer or peasant: Bad omen, because he would be sowing the seeds in the dead earth where they would not grow.

If a person sees himself owning a house which is not strange to him, it means he will soon find a wife for himself. Sometimes, the mere seeing of a house suggests a persons material wealth and assets.

• Pork: Likewise, it means sinful money.

• Dry meat: Slandering the dead.

• Camel meat:  (1) Money and other benefits from the supreme authority. 
(2) Money from a giant man and powerful enemy, as long as the dreamer had not touched it. If he had, it would mean the reverse. Eating it cooked means the dreamer will unjustly eat the wealth of another person, fall ill, then recover.

• Seeing skinned mutton in one’s house, cut in slices: Will contact people never known or seen before and get invited or invite them, and to the dreamer’s delight, they will prove to be real brothers. If such meat was skinned but not in slices, that means sudden tragedy or the death of someone whom the dreamer would inherit from in case the mutton was fat; otherwise he would not inherit anything.

• Eating chicken:  (1) Benefits from the female side.  (2) Patience for the nervous. 
(3) Healing.  (4) The end of worries and sorrow.  (5) Money from foreign sources.

• Eating monkey meat:  (1) Terrible worries or ailments.  (2) Will obtain new clothes.

This symbolises a persons increment in material wealth. At times it represents ear for a certain person in view of the following adage: Qad habala fil ardhi khawful fulaanin. This means that the earth is pregnant and burdened as a result of terror caused by so –and-so.

• Driving one’s wife to another man to have him marry her concurrently: Reduced power or business losses.

• Conversely, wedding one’s wife to another man and bringing the latter to her doorstep: Business gains.

• Seeing a sick man getting married without a woman  (in the dream): The patient will die peacefully.

• Marrying a prohibited relative: The dreamer will prevail over his family.

• Marrying and penetrating a dead woman: The revival of a dead matter. But if the dreamer had neither penetrated nor even had intercourse with her, success in that matter would be shaky.

• Having an incestuous marriage with the dead: The dreamer will resume his duties towards his parents and dependents. 
(Also see Incest.)

• Going to a grave and digging the earth with one’s nails or trying to unearth the dead: Will probe the life of the dead dwelling in that grave to follow his pattern.

A discarded stone in a dream represents a dead person.

• One Aqiq stone: (1) Return of an absent one. (2) Recovery of a sick person.
(3) The freeing of a prisoner. (4) More faith and the abiding by the Holy Prophet’s Tradition.

• One bead: A friend who has nobody to support him.

• Many beads: Illicit gains.

• Dreaming of Aqiq and of doing, at the same time, something prohibited, such as slaughtering a pig or presenting people with pork or dead meat while aware of the sinful character of such an act: The dreamer is ungrateful to his parents and to God, in view of the resemblance of the word Aqiq to oqooq, which in Arabic conveys that meaning of ingratitude.

• Being given Aqiq: Will follow the example of the donor. Losing it means the reverse. Owning plenty of
aqiq: Money and general welfare, as much as was seen.

• Drinking from a container made of aqiq: Will have a child who will become honest and prestigious and will never be short of money.
