The Big Dictionary of Dreams

by Martha Clarke
Sparrows express inconsistency and futility, either in ourselves or those around us. In the latter case, dream images alert you of someone close trying to profit at your expense.

This humble and friendly bird, perhaps because of the damage it causes to the fields, holds a negative connotation in the dream.

If it flies, it announces unpleasant events and empty promises; if it is in a cage a loving conquest will prove to be a huge mistake. To see many of them together is a sign of ruin; to hear them chirping is sign of nasty gossiping.

Islamic Dream Interpretation

by Ibn Seerin
A sparrow or a hawk in a dream represents an ignorant and unjust ruler. Both command lesser controlling domains than the eagle. Holding a sparrow or a hawk in a dream means that one will capture a thief.

If one sees himself producing a sparrow or a hawk out of his urethral canal, it means that he will bore a son who will possess courageous and frivolous character. Holding a sparrow in a dream also means choosing a community of elders and volunteering one’s services.
