Interpretation of Seeing Forehead in Dreams:
A beautiful forehead seen in a dream signifies honour and wealth, while an ugly forehead indicates poverty and disgrace. Imam Shihab al-Din Qarafi says, “Seeing the forehead in a dream symbolizes dignity, as people love such individuals. The forehead also represents obligations, as the tasks assigned to a person are mandatory, including prostrating to Allah, which is an obligatory act performed with the forehead.”
The forehead seen in a dream can also signify brokenness.
A man once told me that he saw in his dream that his forehead was broken. I said, “Your book or tablet will be lost.”
Another person saw the same dream, and Imam Qarafi commented, “If the forehead is wild, your poor handwriting or a poorly written document will be lost.”
Another person dreamed that his face, rather than his forehead, was broken. The Imam said, “You will experience pain in your forehead.”
A man told Imam Qarani, “In my dream, I saw that a hair grew on my forehead and covered my eye. The hair was very beautiful.” The Imam said, “You will suffer from eye inflammation and will need to install hair curtains in your house to protect your eyes from light.” His interpretation proved correct.
Interpretation of Seeing Eyebrows in Dreams:
Beautiful eyebrows in a dream symbolize the well-being of one’s parents, or they may signify two sons or two servants. For a king, eyebrows seen in a dream represent gatekeepers and the army. The right eyebrow symbolizes males, and the left symbolizes females. The disappearance of eyebrows in a dream indicates the decline of one’s life.
If someone at risk of leprosy sees beautiful eyebrows in their dream, it could signify relief from this illness. Thus, seeing beautiful eyebrows in a dream indicates safety from such a debilitating disease.
A person once saw their eyebrows falling out in a dream, and it was interpreted as a sign of leprosy.
Imam Shihab al-Din Qarafi explains, “The ruling for eyelashes, eyebrows, and nasal hair is the same, as leprosy often affects these areas along with the rest of the face. Similarly, their beauty symbolizes safety and protection from leprosy.”
