Classical meaning
Shrouding the body of a deceased person in a dream is a cause of happiness for a sad person and repentance for a sinner. If someone sees himself broke ring on behalf of a friend or a relative to purchase a shroud for him in a dream, it means that he will pay and intercede on behalf of someone who strayed from God's path, whom one regularly admonishes and advises to correct his actions and thoughts. It also means helping him against poverty or adversities, because death is the culminating phase of practicing one's religion in this world. A shroud in a dream also connotes a prison, or committing a major sin. Shrouding the dead after washing the body in a dream means washing it from impurities. (Also see Burial; Camphor; Disrobe; Mummification; Shroud)
Allah knows best. This is not a fatwa.

What should I do after seeing shrouding in a dream?
In the classical Islamic tradition, reflect calmly on the dream's details and your feeling on waking. For a good dream, give thanks and hope for good. For a troubling one, seek refuge in Allah, avoid sharing it widely, and do not build major decisions on a single dream. Consult a knowledgeable person when the matter touches worship, family, or important choices.
