To dream of rooks, denotes that while your friends are true, they will not afford you the pleasure and contentment for which you long, as your thoughts and tastes will outstrip their humble conception of life. A dead rook, denotes sickness or death in your immediate future.

Islam

In dreams, capturing a rook symbolizes various scenarios, including receiving an inheritance or presenting truth in court that may initially be rejected but then replaced with a false version that is accepted. It can also represent involvement in highway robbery.
