City wall (rampart) سور

The wall of a city in a dream is men who fight in God's cause, or a strong ruler, or a chief who guards his wealth. The wall may signify the city's devout worshipper or its scholar, and it may signify the Sacred Law that separates truth from falsehood. It may also signify happiness [wordplay: sur (wall) and surur (joy)]. If the wall signifies the one in charge or the governor of the city, then its battlements and arrow-slits are his followers and servants. If the wall signifies wealth, then the battlements and arrow-slits are his equipment, weapons and stores. If the wall signifies the king, then the battlements and arrow-slits are his guards and those who patrol around him at night.

Whoever sees that he is inside one of the walls, it is safety for him from his enemies or a refuge from what he fears.

Whoever sees that he has built a wall around himself or around his house: if he is a ruler, he will be protected from his enemy and from his subjects; if he is poor, he will gain wealth; and if he is unmarried, he will marry.

Whoever sees the city wall demolished, its governor will die or be removed from office.

Whoever sees that a breach has opened in it so that a lion, a flood or thieves entered the city, the cause of Islam will weaken there and the market of knowledge will become slack. An unknown wall signifies Islam, knowledge and the Quran, wealth and security, piety and prayer, and everything by which one is fortified against all enemies and all evils, whether knowledge, a wife or a husband, an adopted kinsman, a lion, a child and the like. If he sees the city wall walking as an animal walks, he will travel with a ruler toward the direction in which it walked; and if he was on top of it, he will travel with him.
