Arrows In a dream, arrows mean messages, a messenger, writings, victory over one's enemy. If a woman sees her husband's arrows in their quiver in a dream, it means that her husband has turned away from her. Arrows in a dream also are an indicator or a guide. Seeing an arrow outside its quiver, means failure to perform one's duty or inability to deliver one's message. Shooting arrows in a dream means writing letters. If one shoots an arrow but fails to hit his target in the dream, it means that he will send a messenger to do something and his messenger will fail to deliver. If one sees a woman shooting him with an arrow in a dream, it means that she is showing kindness toward him and consequently he may fall in love with her, or he may marry her. Dream Interpreter: Ibn Sirin

Come ride with us, and be not with the disbelievers. He said: I shall betake me to some mountain that will save me from the water.

And the wave came in between them, so he was among the drowned.” (“Hud,” verses 42–43.) Dream Interpreter: Various Islamic Scholars
