- Saber rattling in a dream means the dreamer will have a conflict or disagreement with someone, as it marks the start of a fight. The swords also represent warriors or struggles.
- Being engaged in a duel suggests the dreamer will marry a rebellious woman.
- If the opponent in the duel is using a saber, the dreamer will marry a rich but deceitful woman. The richness comes from the armor covering part of her body, the deceitfulness from the crooked saber, and the affection for the poor from the exposed part of the body, according to Ibn Sirin.
