The Preserved Tablet

To see the Preserved Tablet in a dream denotes the attainment of knowledge, wisdom, the Qur’an, and a rank. To see the Preserved Tablet as small and humiliating denotes that one will suffer hardship in a matter.

To see one’s name written upon the Preserved Tablet in a dream is a sign that one’s appointed time is near. For whatever is written upon the Preserved Tablet comes to pass exactly as written.

According to Ja‘far al-Sadiq: To see the Preserved Tablet is interpreted as becoming the head of a place, having children, attaining guidance, and possessing influence. To see the Preserved Tablet contrary to the Sacred Law denotes evil; and the opposite denotes good.

To see the Pen of Divine Power writing upon the Preserved Tablet in a dream is auspicious if what is written can be read. To see the Pen of Divine Power complete and sound denotes deliverance and relief; to see the pen broken or cracked denotes failing to attain what one hopes for and awaits, and that one’s mind will become scattered.

According to another narration: To see the Preserved Tablet in a dream signifies concealing one’s deeds. To see the Preserved Tablet is glad tidings for one who is in distress and affliction; and for the sick person, it signifies health and well-being.

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 home and environment, success and reputation, the emotional tone in the dream, and how the symbol concludes in the dream should be evaluated together.
