Interpretations of Dreams (Ibn Raashid Al-Bakri Al-Qafsi, Darussalam tr.) · p. 256

Forged currency is indicative of deceit and cheating. Someoneelse said that gold plated Dirhams are indicative of a lack of religiouscommitment and a great deal of sin. And the dream interpretersmentioned other things besides that. One of them said: If the dreamersees heavy loads of Dinars being brought into his house, he will earnmoney, because Allah says: "And (the clouds) that bear heavy weight of water."[Al-Dhaariyaat 51:2] Someone else said: If he dreams that he found a genuine Dirham andhe has a wife who is pregnant, he will be blessed with a son. If thereis a dispute between him and someone else, he will hear some goodwords from his opponent. If a penniless person dreams that, he will seesomething like it in reality. If an ascetic sees that in his dream, he willglorify and remember Allah. If an evildoer sees that and needs whatis written on it, he will be beaten, because coins are "struck" (minted). A man said to Ibn Sireen: I dreamt that I found a Persian Dirham. He said: You will attain something good. Another man said to him: Idreamt that I found an Arab Dirham. He said: You will be beaten. Itwas said: Why did you differentiate between the two? He said: ThePersian coin has a king and a crown engraved on it and the Arabic coinhas a pattern and marks. One of them said: Good-quality Dirhams areindicative of religious commitment, prayer, supplication and meetingneeds. If the Dirham is clean and bright, that means that the dreamerwill have a livelihood that is free of troubles. A lot of coins signifiesa lot of supplication, because the name of Allah and the name of theMessenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) are engraved on the coins. They also indicate thatthe dreamer will get what he wants, because things are done by the helpof Allah. If he dreams that he made a good coin, he will offer advice butit will not be accepted. A man said to Ibn Sireen: I dreamt that I was making coins. He said:You are a poet. Another man said: I dreamt that I put a coin underneath my foot. Hesaid: You will apostatise. And after that he was taken captive and wastortured and he apostatised. If you examine these interpretations, you will find that coins areindicative of nothing but troubles. Shaykh Shihaab-ud-Deen said: If a person dreams that he tookpossession of gold or silver coins or other coins, it is indicative of books,because they have writing on them, and it is indicative of information,because books contain information. It is also indicative of the return ofone who was absent, because what man needs is absent. If he touches them and sees whether they are silver or gold coins, he will get whathe wants. Coins are also indicative of children and acquaintances, because ofthe benefit that there is in them. He said: If it is more than one usuallyhas, that is indicative of trouble, because it is heavy to carry and difficultto keep, and the rights of others are connected to it, and because theevildoers are after it. The same also applies if it is a smaller quantityfor one for whom it is not befitting to have so little, such as a few goldor silver coins or pennies for a king, who is ashamed before the peopleof having so little. The same applies to people of worldly ambition forwhom this small amount is not befitting. For them, this small amountis indicative of turmoil, trouble and loss of status. So he connectedtroubles to having too much or too little than what is usual. With regardto all of that, reference should be made to what is customary and otherbackground circumstances. One of them said: If money is hidden in a container, it indicates thatthe needs of the dreamer will be met; if it is not hidden, that is indicativeof position or status, or it was said that it is indicative of bankruptcy. Ifhe dreams that he put a Dirham in his mouth and brought out a penny,that is indicative of corruption of his religious commitment. If he put aDirham in his mouth and it came out the other end (from his anus), thatindicates that he will die following a false religion. Treasure is indicative of knowledge for the dreamer, provision forthe merchant and appointment to a position of authority for one whowas dismissed.
