دست

Arabic to English Other Tourism & Travel Room condition check list
دست على حامل الشنط، دست على ظهر السرير، دست على الباب الداخلي

I just want to ask my Egyptian colleagues, does the word (دست) here mean (dust) which is (غبار), or does it refer to something else in Egyptian Arabic?

Thanks in advance
