Reading (the Quran and other texts) قراءة

Reading the Quran and other things in a dream: whoever reads the Quran or part of it in his dream will attain elevation and honor. If he is a sinner, God the Exalted will pardon him and accept his repentance; if he is poor, he will become rich; if he is in debt, his debt will be paid; and if he is one of those who give testimony, he will testify to the truth or return a trust he holds. If he recites the Quran in a beautiful voice, he will attain honor, elevation and a good reputation. If he reads the Quran and distorts it, he will deviate from the truth and betray his covenant. If he does not know what he is reading, he may bear false witness or delve into what he does not know. If people listen to his recitation, he will take charge of an affair in which his commands and prohibitions are accepted, in proportion to his standing. Reading in a dream the chapters that are usually recited over the dead indicates the death of a sick person. Readers of the Quran are people of leadership, so whoever sees them in a place, a group of the nobles of society will gather there.

Whoever sees that he read his own record on the Day of Resurrection, while he cannot read well when awake, this indicates wealth after poverty, obtaining all he asks for, and safety from what he fears — this if he read good things; if he read evil things, it indicates worry, misery, notoriety and a financial penalty.

Whoever sees that he read the front of a page or of a book in this world will inherit an inheritance; if he read its back, debt will accumulate upon him. If he sees that he is reading a book, he will inherit an inheritance; and if he is skilled in his reading, he will take up an office of authority.

Whoever sees that he is reading his own book will repent to God the Exalted for his sins.

Whoever sees that he is reading a book of some non-Arabs fluently and correctly, this indicates that he will travel to non-Arab lands and to places he is not used to, and will do a well-known work there. If he reads that foreign book badly, it indicates that he will escape from non-Arab lands, or that he will fall ill, or recover from his illness — this because of the strangeness of foreign speech.
