Freedom — Islamic interpretation

Dream interpretation

Manumission of a slave in a dream represents a ritual sacrifice, or the offering of an animal

during the Feats of Immolation, on the 10th day of the Arabic month of Zul­ Hijjah, and following the annual pilgrimage to Mecca. If one gives permission to his wife to leave him in a dream, it means that they will be divorced. If a bondman sees himself liberated in a dream, it means that he or his master may die shortly. If a bondman dies in a dream, it means that he will be liberated. Manumission means departure from bondage. If a sick person sees himself liberated from bondage in a dream, it means his death.lfhe is a sinner, it means that he will repent for his sin. If he is an atheist, it means that he will become a believer and God Almighty will forbid his flesh to hell-fire. If a free man sees himself liberated from slavery in a dream, it means that he will repay his debts, or repent for his sins. (Also see Feast of Immolation; Slave)

From Imam Muhammad Ibn Seerin's Dictionary of Dreams According to Islamic Inner Traditions — entry "Freedom" (page 178) — resolved via the equivalent "Manumission" entry.

Note: Islamic dream interpretation depends on the dreamer's circumstances and state. This is a general guide drawn directly from the source book.

These interpretations are reflective and cultural — not predictions, and not medical, psychological, financial, or other professional advice.
