Wearing a ring is indicative of governorship for the one who is suited for that, because he uses it to seal letters and secret documents.
Otherwise, he will get married if he is single, or he will buy a slave woman, or he will be blessed with a boy if he has a wife who is pregnant.
If a person dreams that his ring broke or was lost, he will lose his position of governorship or he will leave his wife or one of his children or acquaintances or relatives, and he will lose his livelihood.It is also indicative of a house or a mount.
A man said to Ibn Sireen: I dreamt that on my hand there was a ring and I was sealing men’s mouths and women’s wombs with it. He said to him: You give the call to prayer in Ramadan before dawn.
Another man dreamt that his ring broke. A dream interpreter said to him: You will divorce your wife three times.Losing the ring but not the stone dignifies loss of a position as a governor.
If the ring is made of lead or copper, that is indicative of a weak ruler. For a man, a ring of gold is indicative of innovation; a ring of wood is indicative of a woman who is a hypocrite.
Note
In every case in which jewelry refers to good or evil, howlong it remains is indicative of how long that good or evil will remain. For example, you may say that jewelry made of glass will not last for long, and the same is true of lead and wax, unlike gold, silver, copper and iron. A man said: I dream that on my hand there was a ring of lead. Shaykh Shihaab-ud-Deen said to him: You have a wife who is tarnishing your honor, because lead contaminates and does not last.
