If butter is being weighed, bought, or sold in a dream, for young men it indicates that they must be more careful in order to attain success in their affairs.

If you have seen fresh, bright-yellow butter in a dream, it is a sign that, by reason of your patience, you will lead a successful and healthy life. If its colour is yellow, it signifies illness. But if it is pale in colour, it signifies money and abundance obtained as the result of work.

To see butter in a dream is interpreted as lawful wealth. If it is spoiled and of bad taste, the lawfulness of the wealth is doubtful.

According to another narration: To see butter in a dream signifies beneficial knowledge and affirming the Oneness of Allah (the Almighty), free from doubt. At times, seeing butter signifies a woman who draws the heart of the person before her toward herself. If a woman who is not worthy, while awake, of taking butter upon her back and carrying it away should take butter upon her back in a dream, it signifies that fornication will be committed with that woman by force. By reason of butter’s benefit and purity, it signifies, for those suited to it, the science of jurisprudence and the reading of the Qur’an; medicine; wealth; earnings; seeking property; cheapness and abundance for one in distress; and, for a sick person who eats it, health.

Ibn Sirin: To see butter in a dream signifies knowledge, lawful earnings, spoils, and beneficial information. Fresh butter signifies lawful and easily attained sustenance, while melted butter signifies the disclosure of knowledge.

It can be read as a sign of easing, receiving support, gaining morale, or a fruitful development.

Underestimating opportunities, succumbing to comfort, or being late may reduce the positive effect.

In the interpretation, the themes of work and responsibility, emotional life, success and reputation, the emotional tone in the dream and how the symbol concludes in the dream should be evaluated together.
