In a dream, for one who sees them, they are rain; and for one who eats them, a general, pure provision that will come to him and in which no one will share with him. Their interpretation may be that he will recite the Quran and it will benefit him in his religion. Buried dates are stored-up wealth, and likewise sugarcane. Scattered dates are dirhams that do not last. Whoever eats poor-quality dates (daqal) is one of the protected non-Muslim subjects.
(Whoever sees) that (dates come to him), money will come to him from men of high standing who hold office. A measure of dates is spoils. Whoever picks dates in their season from a palm tree will marry a wealthy, noble woman with much sharpness of temper, abundant in good and blessing; or he will obtain money from noble men without toil; or he may gain knowledge. If it is out of season, he will hear knowledge and not act on it. If he shook fresh dates down onto himself from a dry palm tree, he will learn beneficial knowledge from a hypocritical man; and if he is in distress or worry, it will be lifted from him, because of the story of Mary (peace be upon her):
وَهُزِّىٓ إِلَيْكِ بِجِذْعِ ٱلنَّخْلَةِ تُسَـٰقِطْ عَلَيْكِ رُطَبًا جَنِيًّا
“And shake toward you the trunk of the palm tree; it will drop upon you ripe, fresh dates.”
