carpet (rug spread out)

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

The carpet is worldly life for its owner; its being spread out is the spreading out of worldly life, its breadth is the amplitude of provision, and its thickness is length of life. So if he sees as though it were spread out in an unknown place, or among people he does not know, then he will attain that on a journey. The smallness of the carpet and its thinness mean scantiness of living and shortness of life, and its being folded up is the folding up of blessings and of life.

Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 674–678

And whoever sees as though he were upon a carpet will attain safety if he is at war; and if he is not at war, he will buy an estate.
