Any singing in the marketplace is indicative of a scandal for the rich man and a lack of wisdom for the poor man. Shaykh Shihaab-ud-Deen said: Singing isa bad manifestation of what is in the heart of secrets. If he sings fo or someone else in a nice voice, then he is a man with a smooth tongue who knows how to bring out the secrets in the hearts.
It may also indicate that he will have sickness inside his body or in his throat or head, because these parts hurt from singing too much,just as dancing is indicative of being very tired, because of its repetitive movements, and it is indicative of a pain in the head, because of dizziness.
I dreamt that the Faqeeh Abu’l-‘Abbaas was singing and he was sick, so I interpreted that as signaling his death, because it is said that so- and-so sang when he dies.
And I experienced that with regard to others too. It seems to me that if a man hears singing and singing usually includes poetry, then it is like listening to poetry and the interpretation is to be based on the content of the poetry, as discussed above.
It maybe indicative of trouble, because joy in a dream signifies trouble. Or itmay indicate that he will hear good news. One of the dream interpreter said: Singing is indicative of a scholar or a ruler or a preacher.
