Uh and I think one of the serious problems with this topic as well is because people feel then why are these miracles not happening today? Why are they not happening? Because there's an element of God has changed. You see, so these are deeper philosophical questions. Cool. Let's move on to some of the questions that you guys are asking.

1:33:00

Are Hamza Torsis and Feras Dahabi friends of yours? Uh, mind trap? What about Nan Alihan? Uh, Mui Abu Safura says it's my birthday. Well, happy birthday to you, Abu Safur. Many happy returns. Right. And may Allah bless this year for you and for all of us. A mean. Um, right.

1:33:27

So, uh, oh, as to the mind trap, yeah, I'm I'm uh I would love for these people to come on to Mind Trap. They, you know, some people have accepted. Uh, now I've got to resume. I'm feeling a lot better now. I still need I was told that look with the COVID two weeks is the solid and then I was told it may take another one to two weeks after that for you to um like you know fully get back to normal.

1:33:54

I was mentioning today I just you know it's the third week today and I was feeling some strength had come back to me. And I was like, h like doing some push-ups. And I was had the the need to do that. And uh and I remember a couple of days ago, I I remember trying some push-ups and and it was I I just it's like ah my shoulder would hurt or this would hurt and I couldn't.

1:34:20

Um so I'm just feeling the strength coming back. Hopefully within another week I should be uh good as good as was and I will start resuming the mind traps as well. There's a couple of people who have said to me they're happy to come on. Let's uh get them on and let's get discussing. Amongst them I've also been told that Dr. Shadi Nasar uh is happy to come on Mind Trap.

1:34:46

So that would be an interesting uh conversation. and he's an uh professor at Harvard and he has his book on the v the variant uh recitations of the Quran and I know he's being highly quoted so it'd be very interesting getting him on um so I look forward to that uh right super chat you're doing it is much love beat the reasonbased philosophers on is I'm not sure what he beat them on

1:35:24

the reason these throughout the ages Mui should get Perveves hood boy if you are in touch with him do reach out to him and then reach out to me I'd love to get him on right now how can you say I don't know what that question means Uh the Mavia question.

1:35:50

All right. Uh somebody said Muy soon. It's your birthday. It is. It is. Life goes on. Huh? Yeah. How? Wow. What life moves on. I have to say it's been an interesting year.
