Seeing “clothes pearls”
in your dream

(See Filth)

A woman came to Imam Ibn Sirin and said: "I saw two pearls in my lap in a dream. One was bigger than the other. Then my sister came and asked me to give her one of them, so I gave her the smaller pearl." Imam Ibn Sirin replied: 'You spoke the truth. You have learned two chapters from the Holy Qur'an. One of them is longer than the other, and you have taught your sister the shorter one." The woman obliged.

If a person sees himself as eating or keeping pearls in his mouth, it means he will conceal the knowledge of Deen thereby depriving the people from benefiting from his ilm. At times eating pearls could mean reciting the Quran and deriving benefit theregfrom.

(See Counting)

If a person sees pearls coming out from his mouth it means he will utter words of wisdom and plety. He will also disseminate the knowledge of the Holy Quran and chant the praises of Allah Taala.

A man said to Imam Ibn Seer'in: "I saw a man swallowing small pearls, then bringing them out of his mouth bigger in size in the dream." Ibn Sirin replied: "This the type of a person who learns about something once and speaks about it a lot."

If a person sees himself scattering pearls on the road, in a garbage or in the market place it means he will acquire knowledge and wisdom and will teach it to unworthy people.

Seeing old clothes means the viewer of such a dream has a short life span.

• The dead giving the dreamer something of what he is wearing and the former wearing it in turn: Deep trouble and an acute disease. If the cloth was left till the dead took it back, it means that the dreamer will quickly depart from this world.

• A dead person giving the dreamer a tailored cloth that does not belong to the former and the latter taking and wearing it, then returning it to the dead, who wears it in turn: Those who live under the dreamer’s roof will die unless he had not returned the cloth to the dead, in which case the dreamer’s wealth will increase.

• The dead giving the dreamer a tattered or dirty cloth: Will commit abominations.

• Giving a cloth to the dead, but the latter neither unfolding nor wearing it: Harm will befall the dreamer’s fortune or health, but recovery will follow.

• Taking off some clothes and giving them to the dead: Will die. If the dreamer recovers the clothes, it will be otherwise.

A man told Ibn Siren, “I dreamed that I bought an ornamented cloth of the best silk, which was folded up. When I unfolded and hung it, I found it rotten in the middle.”
“Did you buy an Andalusian slave?” asked Ibn Siren.
“Yes,” said the man.
“Did you have sex with her?”
“No,” said the man, “for I have not yet checked her.”
“Don’t bother to do so, because her genitals are stinking.”
And so it was when the man had his new slave checked by his women.

• New white clothes: A new chance.

If a dog is seen attacking and ripping a perbond clothes it means that his enemy will humiliate him. The humiliation will be equaled to the extent of the clothes it had ripped.

Donning of red clothes is suggestive of a perbond popularity.

Joined clothes, if they are soiled, means the one who wears them will become poor and needy.

A heap or stack of patched clothes symbolises extreme poverty and indigence.

Wearing white embroidered clothes means the attainment of the world as well as Deen. Also power and Fame.

Donning of woolen clothes means acquiring of material wealth in abundance. Clothing made of hair (such as camel's) or cotton wool or just cotton means acquiring of wealth to a lesser degree.

Such a dream is not a good reflection on the Deeni and worldly life of a person.

(Spread; Unfold) To hang a garment in the sun to dry in a dream may indicate that someone will shortly arrive from a long journey.

Donning white, clean clothes reflects a favourable condition of the person who wears them.

If it is a person who is in the habit of wearing black clothes, it means he will acquire steadfastness, power, wealth and soundness in all his affairs.
