Skinning

Seeing oneself skin a man's hide signifies backbiting him and evil deeds.

Seeing one's own skin flayed signifies a calamity that will befall the dreamer. At times this dream signifies goodness and marriage.

If a person sees himself flay the skin of his own legs very thinly and neatly in a dream, it signifies good that will reach him. Or that person will marry a woman. And that woman will give her own wealth to her husband. Some have said: If a sick person sees this dream, it is a sign that he will die and leave the world.

Seeing only skin in a dream signifies a man who gossips.

Seeing someone else flayed is a sign that his wealth will slip from his hands. Flaying the skin of one's right hand is a sign of seizing a brother's wealth, and flaying the skin of one's left hand a sign of seizing a sister's wealth. His holiness Ibn Sirin said: Seeing any skin in a dream is interpreted as blessing.

Seeing one's skin black or blue, however, is sorrow and grief.
