In a dream, a swine represents an avowed and a fierce enemy who is perfidious, worrisome, anxious, who does not act upon what he says and who lies and tricks people. Riding a swine in a dream means that he will earn a large some of money. If one eats it raw, cooked, or broiled in the dream, it means that he swallows unlawful money, or knowingly eats impermissible food. Walking like a swine in a dream means turning quick profits from an investment or a business, or it could mean that one will acquire what his heart desires. A wild pig in dream is a sign of a severe cold weather, Eating ham in a dream carries benefits for all people, though it is unlawful for Muslims.

Ifone sees little pigs entering his house in a dream, it represents an official inspection of one's private life. If one sees himself kicking little pigs out of his house in a dream, it means that he will resign from working for the government.
