Islamic Dream Interpretation
by Ibn Seerin
(Abnormal, Albino, Elf, Leprosy, Whitish) An elf in a dream represents a person of evil nature who creates disunity and enmity between people through backbiting, insinuations, slanders and who advises them against good deeds. In a dream, an elf also represents poverty, sorrows, humiliation, or adversities caused by people who wander between towns and cities as a habit. Ifan elf visits a sick person in a dream, it means death.
