Fasting Dream Meanings – Symbolism & Interpretations

Dreaming of breaking the fast in Ramadan (in a dream) is indicative of the same as acts of worship. For one who wants to travel, it indicates that he is not going to travel or that he will face hardship during his journey.

It is indicative of recovery for one who is sick and unable to eat; but for the sick person who is able to eat it may be indicative of his death. Fasting may be indicative of severing ties with worldly affairsand loss of livelihood.

One of the dream interpreters said: If he dreams that it Is ramadan, then his dream is indicative of high prices. But if he dreams that he is fasting all the time, he will stop sinning.If he dreams that he fasted voluntarily, he will not get sick, because of the Hadeeth,

“Fast and you will be healthy.”

If he fasts but does not know whether it is obligatory or voluntary,that indicates that he has to fulfil a vow or he may keep quiet, because the basic meaning of Sawm is keeping silent.Another man said: I dreamt that everyone around me was fasting,even the animals.

He said: Everyone around you had nothing to eat.A man said: I dreamt that I fasted on the day of Eid. He said: You did something Makrooh.

A man said: I dreamt that I emptied all the vessels in the house andthe stomachs of my children and family. He said: You forced all the people in your house to fast and you prevented them from eating. Andit was as he said.

If a person breaks his fast (in the dream) and it was the day of Eid,he will be relieved of his distress and happiness will return to him.

If he dreams that he broke the fast deliberately in Ramadan, he will kill aman deliberately; if he kills a man deliberately (in his dream), he will break the fast in Ramadan. If he dreams that he was a man who got used to fasting all the time but he broke the fast, he will backbite about people, because of the report which says that “backbiting invalidate the fast.” And he may fall sick.
