Dream Interpretation of Tears:

Cool tears in a dream signify joy, while warm tears are an indication of sorrow and grief. The reasoning behind this is that tears of happiness are cool, whereas tears of sadness are warm.


If someone sees tears on their cheeks in a dream but they are not crying, it means people will criticize or insult their lineage. Some interpreters have mentioned this interpretation, though I could not find any justification for it.


If someone sees their eyes filled with tears but no tears fall, it means the dreamer will accumulate wealth.


If tears flow down the face, it signifies that the dreamer will willingly spend from their wealth.


If someone sees in their dream that a tear flows from their right eye and enters the left eye, it means their son will commit an immoral act with their daughter.


In dream interpretation, the right eye symbolizes a son, and the left eye symbolizes a daughter.


It is narrated that a king had an interpreter whom he greatly admired and valued for his accurate interpretations. The king’s minister, out of jealousy for the interpreter’s esteemed position, sought to disgrace him.


One day, the minister said to the king, “This interpreter is a fraud. I will narrate a false dream to him, and if he interprets it, you will know I speak the truth.” The king found this suggestion intriguing and called for the interpreter.


The minister said to the interpreter, “I dreamed that my right eye jumped onto my left eye and blinded it.” The interpreter replied, “Your son has committed an immoral act with your daughter.”


The minister retorted, “You are lying! I never had such a dream.” The minister had already informed the king about his plan. The king began to doubt the interpreter.


The interpreter then said to the minister, “Go home and investigate.” When the minister inquired, he found that the interpreter’s words were true.


The interpreter explained, “You had indeed seen this dream, but Allah made you forget it. When you slandered me before the king, Allah reminded you of this dream so that your jealousy and lies would be exposed.”
