Detailed book entry
They are better than goats. If a man dreams that he possesses a ewe,if he is single he will get married and if the sheep is a lamb, he willmarry a woman who will bring a trousseau and is beautiful, becauselambs are beautiful and have a lot of wool, and she will be chaste andmodest. If it is a goat, then she will be poor, on the basis that the goathas little hair, and she may have a fault because the private part of thegoat is uncovered. A ram signifies a man of dignity who is in a position of enjoininggood and forbidding evil. If the ram has no horns, then he will behumiliated and have no blessings; the same applies to the billy goat. In general, sheep signify booty, gains and provision for the one whopossesses them; if he sees them from afar he will remain happy. Some dream interpreters said: if a person sees one sheep, he will behappy for one year. If he sees a flock of sheep, he will be appointed to aposition that befits him. If he dreams that he is slaughtering a ram that isnot to be eaten, he will kill a noble man or a strong enemy. If he dreamsthat that occurred during wartime, he will be granted victory. The headsand feet of sheep are indicative of a longer life. If he dreams that he was met by sheep, he will be met by people forfighting, but he will prevail over them. A man dreamt that he had a ewe that turned into a ram. ShaykhShihaab - ud - Deen said: He will get some bene fit from his wife or extraincome, and she may give birth to a boy and his life may change for thebetter. But if it destroys some property of his, he will have some troublewith his wife or in his livelihood. A man dreamt that a billy goat had a fat tail and he cut it off. He saidto him: You are a surgeon or you lance boils and bring relief to people. He said: You are right.
Allah knows best. This is not a fatwa.
