Ten Thousand Dream Dictionary

1- In a dream a shroud can be a frightening image, since it is associated with death.

If we recognise that by shrouding something it becomes hidden, then the image is less frightening.

2- A shroud can signify a covering up of something we do not fully understand. We know that it is there, but we do not wish to have a look at it.

3- In spiritual terms a shroud is a mark of respect.

Islamic Dream Interpretation

by Ibn Seerin
(Wrap) Ashroud in a dream means coveringone’s private parts, or it could mean having a secret affair, concealing one’s action while displaying a deceptive appearance, or it could mean marriage with an incompatible spouse. Wearing a shroud in a dream also may mean earning money from adultery.

If one sees a shroud and does not wear it in his dream, it means that he will be lured to engage in adultery, though he will abstain. Being wrapped in a shroud like a dead person in a dream means one’s death.

If one’s head and feet are still uncovered in the dream, it represents his religious failure and corruption.

The smaller is the wrap shrouding the deceased in a dream, the closer he is to repentance and the larger is the wrap and more complete is his preparation for burial in the dream, the further he is from repentance.
