dream
I
was within a corporate building upon a floor with lots of rooms and
offices. Within one of these rooms I was speaking with a young lady, of
the Islamic faith, who I used to work with in the kitchen of a nursing
home. As we spoke my left arm rested atop her right arm, including our
hands. In knew in this acton great affection was being expressed.
interpretation
According
to muslim dream symbolism, limbs represent family amd arms brotherhood.
A muslim to dream of holding a woman represents loving the world and
rejecting the afterlife. However this dream, if of God cannot be viewed
this way.
- The dream is not specific to this lady, her image was used because she is one of the few Muslim I personally know.
- Women represent God's people, thus the context here is people of the Islamic sphere. They are people he is seeking.
Thus,
this dream is a parable in nature. It challenges people who profess
Christ to treat Islamic people as God does, as his family regardless of
your views on reconciliation. It also challenges people of the Islamic
faith to see God as relational, to reject the world and embrace eternal
life. Both are counter cultural.
