If it falls in places where it brings benefit, that is indicative of benefits for those who benefit from it and it is indicative of abundance, generosity of prominent people, good news and good things for those indicated. But if it is harmful, it is indicative of the opposite.
Shihaab-ud-Deen said: Strong wind, a lot of lightning, overwhelming clouds, alarming thunder, rain, hail and lightning strikes are all indicative of war, major events, and disturbing news for the one who sees that, especially the traveller. If it destroys houses or uproots trees, or kills useful animals, it is indicative of enemies, diseases, epidemics, plague, oppression on the part of prominent people, or famine and rising prices.
If the dreamer sees hail or snow falling on his body, that is indicative of loss affecting his wealth, because that hurts him and loss of wealth hurts too. If he dreams that he is hit by hail, he will acquire pearls and wealth. If he dreams that snow is falling on him, he will travel far away, because if hetravels far away, something like that is bound to happen to him.
One of the dream interpreters said: Rather his enemy will gain control over him, because the one who is exposed to that cannot ward it off. If the snow comes over his head like water, that is indicative of distress, because that prevents him from breathing. If he sees snow that is melting, this means that his distress will ease. If he sees that the cold affects him, he will become poor. If he seeks warmth from a fire or the sun, he will become rich by the help of the ruler. If he gets warmed up by smoke, he will go through some turmoil. If the water freezes, this means distress and torment, unless he dreams that he put water in his vessel and then it froze; in that case he will acquire some wealth and will be able to keep it. But if he buys ice in the summer, then he will have a time of ease and relief.
A man said: I dreamt that a man was standing in heavy rain with his head uncovered. Shaykh Shihaab-ud-Deen said to him: He will receive a heavy blow on his head. And that indeed happened.
Another man dreamt that hail fell on his head and body. He said: There will appear on your head and body smallpox or boils. And that indeed happened to him. Another man dreamt that and he said: Have you decided to travel with the army? He said: Yes. He said: You will be struck with an arrow or stones. And that indeed happened to him.
A man dreamt that he became a thunderbolt and burnt an olive tree. He said to him: There are many things that happened to you, among which you slandered a woman of good origin, and you were away in a place where there were no olives, then you came to a place where there were olives and you bought some property there, because this thunderbolt lives in the place where you live.
