Carnelian-red

(arb. 'Aqiq. A variety of chalcedony; Crystalline mineral; Gem; Jewelry; Precious stone; Stone) Seeing a Carnelian-red stone in a dream means dispelling poverty. At the beginning of the creation, of all stones, the Carnelian- red was the first stone that testified to God's Oneness. If one sees himself in a dream concluding his ablution or ritual bath with the essence of a Carnelian- red, it means that he owns something blessed. Such blessings will manifest in one's work and success in his material as well as spiritual life. A Carnelian-red stone in a dream also represents one's progeny, good religious conduct, good character, while seeing the white variety of this stone has a stronger meaning 70 and a better attribute than the red. (Also see Aqiq canyons; Aqiqah rites)

• dispelling poverty
• owning something blessed
• blessings in work and success

Aqiq canyons

(A place near the holy city of Mecca; First segment of God's Messenger's Nocturnal journey.) Seeing oneself performing a ritual ablution, then performing prayers in the Aqiq canyons in a dream signifies confirmation of the testimony of God's Oneness (see Carnelian-red), washing oneself from worldly attachments, witnessing Divine blessings and spiritual favors, rising in station, hearing good words, or it could mean imprisonment, rain, a gift, an offering, or a charity.

'Aqiqah rites

(Hair of a newborn; Immolation offered on the seventh day for a newborn; Islamic tradition of shaving the hair of a newborn on the seventh day after his birth; Sacrament; Weighing the shaved hair of a newborn and distributing an equal measure in gold or silver in charity for his benefit.) The offering of an 'Aqiqah ceremony in a dream represents glad tidings, the arrival of a long-awaited person, recovering from an illness, or the release of a prisoner. Participating in the sacrament of the 'Aqiqah rites in a dream also could represent a growing faith and certitude, and emulating the blessed traditions of God's Prophet, upon whom be peace. If the sacrifice presented in one's dream on that day is a permissible one and if one fulfills all the necessary rituals in his dream, then it denotes his praiseworthy character and the success of his endeavors. If one offers a non-permissible sacrifice in his dream and presents it to people to eat from, then his dream represents a recalcitrant child, or a rebellious son. (Also see canyons; Carnelian-red)
