Killing a Man

To see in a dream that one has intentionally and unjustly killed a man indicates that the dreamer is sinful. To see that one has killed one’s own soul in a dream, however, is a sign of goodness.

To see in a dream that one has been killed by another indicates that the dreamer’s life will be long, and is more strongly indicative of goodness.

For, on the basis of the verse concerning Moses (peace be upon him): “My Lord, indeed I killed one of them, and so I fear that they will kill me.” (al-Qasas, 35), the Noble Moses attained rank after acknowledging this state of his.

Likewise, to see in a dream that one has killed someone indicates deliverance from fear, severity, and grief, in accordance with the verse: “And you had killed a man, but We saved you from that distress.” (Ta Ha, 40)

To see oneself slaughtered in a dream is a sign of suffering oppression. To see in a dream that one has killed a man without cutting him indicates goodness and wealth that will befall the one who was killed.

It has been said: Whoever sees in a dream that he has killed his own child will attain sustenance from a place he never expected. If someone sees in a dream that he is on a battlefield and is killed while fighting, this is an indication of gain, prosperity in his trade, and the fulfillment of his word.

It provides early awareness; the person sees risks before they grow and can choose a more solid path.

Neglect, haste, untrustworthy people or uncontrolled behavior can increase the difficulty.

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