Seeing “younger”
in your dream

Abdullah b. 'Umar reported Allah's Messenger (Sallallaahu-Alayhi-wasallam) as saying:
I saw in a dream that I was using miswak and the two persons contended to get it from me, the one being older than the other one. I gave the miswak to the younger one. It was said to me to give that to the older one and I gave it to the older one. (Muslim)

(Rasp; Tongue) A file in a dream represents one's tongue. It also means satisfying an innate need or giving a keen edge to an expression. It also represents a helper, a son who provides for the need of his mother or younger brothers and sisters. A file in a dream also represents demands, obligations, or sexual intercourse.

According to Ibn Siren, it makes no difference whether the eaten person is a man or a woman, but the younger the subject, the more likely the dream will come true.

• Eating another person’s flesh raw: Will slander that person or backbite one of his relatives.

• Eating another person’s flesh cooked or grilled: Will swallow the other’s capital.

• Biting and snatching one’s own flesh and spitting it on the ground: The dreamer is an evil person and a slanderer.
