Unlocking the Secrets of Fractions of Time in Dreams

Dreams, as we know, often serve as gateways to our subconscious thoughts and feelings. When we dream about fractions of time passing, it can evoke feelings of urgency, reflection, and even anxiety. Perhaps in the dream, you find yourself watching the hands of a clock move at an unusually slow pace, or maybe you experience time splintering into moments that seem to escape your grasp.

This complex phenomenon invites us to contemplate our relationship with time itself, whether it's the fleeting nature of life, our hopes for the future, or reflections on past moments that shape us. In many cultures, particularly in Islamic tradition as highlighted by Ibni Sirin, dreams involving time carry significant messages about our inner state and moral consciousness. By understanding these fragments, one can glean insights into personal growth, current dilemmas, and the divine guidance steering us on our journey.

  • Selling:

    If one sees himself as a prisoner being sold in a slave market in a dream, it means honor if the buyer is a woman, and difficulties if the buyer is a man. The higher the price he is auctioned for, the better or worse is his luck. In a dream, the more loss the buyer incurs, the better it is for the traded subject and vice- versa.

    There is also a difference between seeing oneself being auctioned and being sold. Being auctioned in a dream means evil. To sell means to part with.

    In a dream, the buyer is the seller and the seller is a buyer. Selling means giving preference and value to the merchandise. If what is being sold is worldly, the preference is then given to one’s benefits in the hereafter.

    Selling in a dream also means exchanging one condition with another. However, bartering in a dream means to exchange the benefit of things, or to share them. If for example one sees himself in a dream trading something of no value for something precious, and if he is a warrior, it means that he will die as a martyr.

    Selling a free man in a dream means rotation of power and reaching a praiseworthy end. As it happened in the story of Joseph son of Jacob, upon both of them be peace.
