Exhume (Dig up a grave; Unearth) Exhuming the body of a deceased person and finding him alive in his grave in a dream means pursuing his tradition, knowledge, wisdom, trade or practices. It also means acquiring lawful money. If one finds him dead in his grave, then there is no benefit in his striving. A grave robber or a body snatcher in a dream represents a deliberate and a premeditated scheme to unravel a mystery, or forming an expedition to search for a hidden treasure. Digging the grave of a renowned scholar in a dream means studying his school of thought and the restoration of his studies, life, traditions and prominence. (Also see Grave digger; Grave) Dream Interpreter: Ibn Sirin

Fasting Dreams about fasting have contradictory interpretations:
• Dreaming of being in the Muslims  month of fasting  (Ramadan):  (1) Higher prices  (inflation) and scarcity of foodstuffs.  (2) Sound religion, end of worries, recovery from a disease, the settlement of debts.
• Having fasted the entire month of Ramadan:  (1) Certainty after doubt.  (2) If the dreamer was illiterate, he would memorize the Holy Quran.
• Dreaming of recognizing the utility of fasting and wishing to fast: Quick benefits from an unexpected source.
• Failing to fast during the month of Ramadan:  (1) The dreamer is giving way to his instinct and passions.  (2) The dreamer will have a blessed journey.
• Dreaming of having deliberately and overtly eaten throughout the month of Ramadan, instead of fasting like other Muslims:  (1) The dreamer is disregarding religious rules.  (2) The dreamer will commit a premeditated murder. Dream Interpreter: Various Islamic Scholars
