Dream meaning · al-Nabulsi

Road (path) طريق

In a dream it is the religious law (Sharia), and divergent roads are heretical innovations. Whoever sees that he is walking off the road is in error in his religion. Whoever is waylaid on the road and has his belongings taken will suffer a loss concerning a friend of his. When the ruler travels a rugged road, that is his justice spreading in that place. The straight road is a sign of what one follows as a model: the Book of God and the Sunna of His Prophet, or a sheikh or an exemplar; if he is a sinner he will repent, and if he is an unbeliever he will be guided. Divergent roads indicate wavering and confusion. Confusing roads are those that lead to error, heretical innovation and unbelief. The road is one's method in a craft. The old road is a good or bad legacy. A road in the sea is salvation from hardship. The road is the owned (slave) woman. The road is lawful earning. The road is the truthfulness by which a person is saved if he follows it. The road is death, which everyone travels. If he sees that he is walking straight along the road and he is a man of worldly affairs, he will be guided to a profitable trade. The back road is delusion and heretical innovation.
