Animal • Marrying any kind of animal: Will marry a woman having similarities to such an animal. • If the animal is consenting: The woman will go in the husband’s direction, be it right or wrong. • Domestic animals turning wild: Evil and harm and vice versa. • Plenty of beasts: The rural population. • Turning into a deer or any other kind of wild animal: Will isolate yourself from the Muslim community. • The milk of wild beasts: Rare and scarce money. • Drinking the milk of wild beasts: Religious enlightenment and asceticism. • Owning and controlling wild beasts: Will control Muslim renegades.

Adultery Adultery symbolizes betrayal and theft. • An adulteress flirting with the dreamer: Will obtain dirty money. • A concupiscent person having sex with an adulteress: Will make sinful gains or will be involved in evil and intrigue. • A virtuous and righteous person making love to an adulteress: Will add to his knowledge and blessings or will perform the pilgrimage to Mecca (Makkah). The contradiction between the above two cases lies in that sex, in general, symbolizes the fulfilment of wishes, be they religious or worldly, because sex is nothing else but pleasure, satisfaction, delight, or ecstasy. And the woman, in dreams, symbolizes the world or the dreamer’s life and livelihood. Therefore, the meaning of having intercourse with a woman is contingent upon the tendencies of the dreamer, whether religious or earthly. Dream Interpreter: Various Islamic Scholars
