attributed to Ibn Sirin, Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam

As for burial: whoever sees as though he died and was buried, then he will travel a distant journey in which he will obtain wealth, because of His saying, exalted be He: "Then He caused him to die and buried him; then, when He wills, He will resurrect him."

Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 108–110

As for burial, it confirms what death indicates. It may be despair of righteousness for one whose religion has become corrupt. It may indicate the traveller's long stay, and marriage and the bride, and entering the house within the bridal canopy with the bride after washing, wearing white, and touching perfume; then his brethren visit him during his week.

Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 535–539
