people are gonna say yeah below here I start local you see people may feel it's because I'm kind of going crazy I'm not but I've started to kind of find more interesting this theory that was posited by certain physicists actually and certain researchers that what if dreams are a dimension in and of themselves that sounds crazy when you say like this with the standard you know model or
physics but not necessarily see physics is much more in kind of intriguing then like let's say biology as a science physics it can act it because it it is intrigued by things like consciousness by the invasiveness of time by quantum realities it is sometimes much more mystical then like hard kind of 3d views like biology which is much more rigid so there are certain models of phys physics and
certain physicists that are trying to kind of reconcile between all the the kind of reality so from the quantum to the cosmos and bang bang car who's an amazing leading you know he's he's an amazing physicist and he's from the UK he was somebody who was junior to but close to Steven Hawkings as well and he in his lecture was explaining to us how
the m2m from where you've got basically they're trying to reconcile from the quantum to the cosmos everything and he said that he's working on a theory where there's something the missing thing what is the missing thing and he was saying that it would make that he feels its mind mind being consciousness so you've got at least let's say eleven dimensions or ten whichever way you want to see it some people have gone you know many more dimensions in reality not just the three dimensions that we see there's many more
dimensions mathematically so at least ten or eleven is the kind of like standard accepted view now these dimensions some people have felt what if dreams was a dimension and that sounds bizarre when we think about it but I don't know like in a different way it doesn't mean that you're physically kind of there but what if from a consciousness perspective you are they and that sounds I know all weird and but I'm kind of open to this I'm not saying it is like this but I'm open to it as
opposed to a few years ago I wasn't so this was actually when I went to a lecture last year a conference held on psychology and it was from there that I got intrigued with this kind of thinking so I do feel that mmm dimension they may be a dimension and in that case seeing the profit it does it doesn't mean that that was how he how he actually looked but you know to you you may it may seem that this is the profit and obviously that's an amazing subjective experience but it I suppose
probably kind of Sharia icon so you can't say you know the Prophet told me this so now I'm going to spread this message to people that doesn't hold any weight in fact you know this an amazing call the job is is writing to even a ruched really taking a fatwa from him and they both epic legends of the dawns of the Maliki myth have absolute up there you know the major players within the method and of the yard both from Muslim Spain
and he is writing to the grandfather in Russia and he says that look there's a judge who he's dealing with the case and in this case there's a key witness and it rests on this key witness but what happens is before the judge was about due to sentence or you know give not sentence but give his decision decision verdict on the matter he then one of the nights before he had a dream and in that dream he saw the prophet salaallah alayhi wasalam and the Prophet said to him that do not go by
the testimony of that person I mean you must discard his testimony because he's a liar now this person didn't know what to do so he was like you know you woke up and he said well everything seems to check out when it comes to this witness and their case rests on him now if I go by textbook I will you know this is that's where I'm going but that's I've now had this dream where the prophet has told me don't so I don't know what to do
confusion his state of mind was as clear as Boris Johnson's so he asks called the yard the legend and called the yard rights too and this is just once again epic Pierre kind of you know companionship almost like this that the the kind of deal that there isn't this arrogance that people used to write to each other miss Carla is a scholar so what let me ask his get his take on it and I've nourished writes back saying that dreams have no in this world we do
not take them into consideration so the judge must go by the evidence as it stands so if the evidence points to a particular verdict based on the testimony of that witness then that's how you rule you discard the dream so I thought that's an interesting story really why not so I thought about Sheree
