They are better than goats. If a man dreams that he possesses a ewe,if he is single he will get married and if the sheep is a lamb, he will marry a woman who will bring a trousseau and is beautiful, because lambs are beautiful and have a lot of wool, and she will be chaste and modest. If it is a goat, then she will be poor, on the basis that the goat has little hair, and she may have a fault because the private part of the goat is uncovered.
A ram signifies a man of dignity who is in a position of enjoining good and for bidding evil. If the ram has no horns, then he will be humiliated and have no blessings; the same applies to the billy goat.
In general, sheep signify booty, gains and provision for the one who possesses them; if he sees them from afar he will remain happy.
Some dream interpreters said: if a person sees one sheep, he will be happy for one year. If he sees a flock of sheep, he will be appointed to a position that befits him. If he dreams that he is slaughtering aram that is not to be eaten, he will kill a noble man or a strong enemy. If he dreams that that occurred during wartime, he will be granted victory. The head and feet of sheep are indicative of a longer life.
If he dreams that he was met by sheep, he will be met by people for fighting, but he will prevail over them.
A man dreamt that he had a ewe that turned into a ram. ShaykhShihaab-ud-Deen said: He will get some benefit from his wife or extra income, and she may give birth to a boy and his life may change for thebetter. But if it destroys some property of his, he will have some trouble with his wife or in his livelihood.
A man dreamt that a billy goat had a fat tail and he cut it off. He saidto him: You are a surgeon or you lance boils and bring relief to people.
He said: You are right.
