**Summary (not a quotation; machine-made, unchecked):** Housekeeping: greetings, a sound check, and the list of tonight's topics, from world events to a hadith describing God.

## Longer summary

Mufti Abu Layth does his usual sound check on YouTube and Facebook and remarks that the world is in some disorientation. Asked in chat how he is feeling, he says he is back to normal, though still in lockdown and doing push-ups at home instead of the gym. A super chat asks about the saddest part of his life and how it changed him; he says he needs to think about it and will come back to it. He lists tonight's plan: a catch-up on world events, a hadith in al-Bukhari describing God and why taking beliefs from a single hadith is a fallacy, hadiths portraying the Prophet, and the latest 'discoveries' of a preacher he calls 'our beloved', who he says has found Noah's ark.
