A dream of Ibn Abd al-Barr dressed like a professor

I mean and these most of these it's not even that they're just cannon foder that these people are just a waste. Most of them are then an impediment to to enlightened growth because they become the people that then say to this one kufur you know [laughter] it's like a cha cha you come and join that line. Yeah.

[laughter] Yeah. Right, Salman Moin, you're doing it with the super chat, man. Much love. Much love. Uh, right. So, it [snorts] is amazing your connection. Do you dream about Hazam? [snorts and laughter] I have in some, you know, as a one-off had dreams about scholars in the past.

Um, I've dreamt of Abdul B. I've dreamt of some other scholars as well. I'm pretty sure I've dreamt of Pal the Yad. I've dreamt like as in I like I just in the dream. It's not like I've dreamt about them in some kind of oh mesmerizing romantic Bollywood sense, but as in like in the dream I happen to be talking to them or I happen to I wish I could say I'm often doing that.

I'm not. My dreams are usually just crazy and [laughter] not of this nature. this is the oneoff occasion where I don't know what happens and it's like huh how come I had an Islamic dream [laughter] but yeah so um but I have had dreams with them I you know it's amazing because my dream of Abd I had so many years ago but it still stands out like so [laughter] in that dream I I walked into this kind of uh I I wanted to meet him I I was in some building and I knew he was there and he worked worked there or something.

Ibn Abdar the great hafid of the western Muslim world from about a thousand years ago. He lived in Muslim Spain. He's one of my kind of dons of of and dawn of the Maliki Madhab. So I was like whoa I have to meet you know half Abd and and they said oh well he's in that office over there. [laughter] So I go into this office and he's this he's like a professor.

He's like dressed like a professor. He looked a bit like in my dream a bit like um what's that actor's name? Yeah, the the one from uh Gladiator. What's his name? [laughter] Um ah bloody elf. See like slip. But the way he he plays uh you know the way he kind of looks in um a beautiful mind um that Russell what is it?

But anyway, right. So you know who I'm talking about. So he was like that the way he's in that movie uh and dressed like a professor and he's sitting there all these books and he's on this chair sitting there and uh he's kind of reading some book or something and I go in and I have this kind of conversation with him and I was so like wowed by but I was kind of shocked because I didn't expect him to look like that. [laughter] So not being judgmental Russell Crow.

That's it. That's it. He looked like that but the slightly chubbier version of not fat but like you know the one from but yeah that was a very interesting intriguing dream because I still remember it as clearly as I saw it when and it' been so many years now I saw that. Yeah. Right. So what's going on people? What somebody said in Go on ask that to MUI.

Ask what to a beautiful mind was a beautiful movie. It was actually it was an amazing movie. Um was Abd in the reception [laughter] Abdar? It was a don though. I got to give it.
