Adjuring Dream Meaning
Dream interpretation
If you see someone taking an oath in your dream, it indicates that this person may betray you. Taking an oath signifies a serious commitment, which can sometimes serve as a warning about others. This type of dream cautions you to be more aware of the intentions of some people around you.
Ibn Sirin
Adjuring — Islamic interpretation
From Imam Muhammad Ibn Seerin's Dictionary of Dreams According to Islamic Inner Traditions — entry "Adjuring" (page 3).
If one sees himself swearing in God's Name before someone in a dream, it means that the other person will deceive him. To swear solemnly by the stars, the celestial signs or by any physical sign in a dream means arrogance, deception, humiliation, hypocrisy or heedlessness. If one is truthful in his oath in a dream it means that he will win his argument, speak the truth or perform an act that pleases God Almighty. To swear by God in a dream when failure to perform requires atonement means following the truth and emulating the leading example of God's Prophet, upon whom be peace.
Note: Islamic dream interpretation depends on the dreamer's circumstances and state. This is a general guide drawn directly from the source book.
