**Summary (not a quotation; machine-made, unchecked):** Mufti Abu Layth mocks a preacher's account of a dream in which the coronavirus appeared as a man sent to punish, calling it nonsense that people are preaching and sharing.

## Longer summary

Mufti Abu Layth introduces a preacher he names as Maulana Abdul Raheem Limbada, who he says once often spoke about him, and plays on his surname. He retells, ahead of playing the clip, a dream the preacher relates from a Bangladeshi man: the coronavirus came to him in the form of a man and said God had sent it as a punishment after a Uyghur Muslim woman was assaulted in China, killing her attackers first, then going to Iran because the people there are Shia, and attacking Muslims who do not pray or who mix with non-Muslims, while any decent Muslim it kills is a martyr. He then plays the clip in Urdu, largely garbled in the captions, laughing and reacting. He says this is the kind of nonsense being preached and shared, that it is embarrassing, and that at the end of the day it is a dream.
