Ibn Shahin al-Zahiri, al-Isharat fi Ilm al-Ibarat
As for the crocodile, it is an enemy from whom a friend is not safe. So whoever sees that he has caught a crocodile, then he will get hold of such a man. And it is said the crocodile is a tyrannical, oppressive ruler.
al-Isharat fi Ilm al-Ibarat, p. 220
And whoever sees that the crocodile dragged him into the water, then the ruler will take something from him against his will. And if it brought him into the water and he died in it, then it is interpreted as his destruction.
al-Isharat fi Ilm al-Ibarat, p. 220
And whoever sees that he dragged the crocodile onto the land, then he will triumph over his enemy.
al-Isharat fi Ilm al-Ibarat, p. 220
And whoever sees that he obtained something of its bone, its flesh, or its hide, then he will obtain wealth from his enemy in proportion to that.
al-Isharat fi Ilm al-Ibarat, p. 220
And Abu Sa'id al-Wa'iz said: the crocodile is a police officer, because it is the worst of what is in the sea; neither a friend nor an enemy is safe from it. And it is a treacherous thief or a deceitful merchant.
al-Isharat fi Ilm al-Ibarat, p. 220
attributed to Ibn Sirin, Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam
(The crocodile) is a policeman, because it is the most evil thing in the sea; neither enemy nor friend is safe from it. It is a treacherous thief, of the rank of the beast of prey, and it also indicates the oppressive, treacherous merchant.
Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 413–414
So whoever sees that a crocodile dragged him into the water and killed him in it, then he will fall into the hand of a policeman who will seize his wealth and kill him. And if he is saved, then he will be saved.
Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 413–414
