My Dream Interpretation

by myjellybean
To dream that you are listening to something indicates that you need to pay closer attention to what you are being told and what you are seeing. Perhaps your dream is telling you to be more receptive towards the guidance and/or criticism of others.

Islamic Dream Interpretation

by Ibn Seerin
In a dream, listening to the Qur’an, or to the teachings of God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace, or to words of wisdom, or to an admonition, or a discourse of knowledge in a dream means receiving guidance, and it means turning repentantly to God Almighty.

Other wise, if one sees himself listening to backbiting, slandering, defamation, or eavesdropping in a dream, then it means that some harm will befall him. Listening to good advice and following its best guidance in a dream means receiving good news.

Eaves dropping in a dream means that one in tends to defame the other person. Listening, though pretending not to hear what is being said in a dream means that one makes it a habit to lie.
