In dreams, obstinacy symbolizes witnessing or engaging in wrongdoing. If you find yourself stubborn, demanding, or persistent in your dream, it suggests that you are avoiding something or turning away from a conflict. This reflects your attitude towards stress or discord in your life. Being obstinate may indicate a lack of determination or a disregard for your circumstances.
From Imam Muhammad Ibn Seerin's Dictionary of Dreams According to Islamic Inner Traditions â entry "Obstinacy" (page 307).
Obstinacy in a dream means witnessing or committing evil in wakefulness. To be obstinate, demanding and persistent in a dream also means running away from something, or turning one's back to a fight, a dispute, an argument or a business. Obstinacy in a dream also may denote a presumptuous and an arrogant person who is disliked by people. Being obtrusive and obstinate in a dream also may mean being exasperated or annoyed about something, or that people dislike to be in his company and have serious reser vations about him. (Also see Obtrusive person)
