Ali

So manqut is marked or dotted with points.

So the points makes a person understand-- And I mentioned this, the, the, the dots and the di-diacritics were introduced by Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib through, uh, his scholar Abul Aswad ad-Du'ali because the Quran was not written with dots or diacritics.

The Arabs u- w- used to, uh, easily read the Arabic text without dots through the meaning of, uh, uh, the, the sentence itself.

But as the Islamic empire expanded and, uh, Imam Ali went to Kufa, he left Medina and went to Kufa, it was difficult for non-Arabs to read the, the Quran.

So Imam Ali, he told Abul Aswad ad-Du'ali and, and the scholars to introduce the dots, and later on, the tashki.

So by using the dots, the nuqat, the Arabic words came into life.

So the verbal forms of it, naqqaqa, to dot.

So the line which is the source of written form and the principle of distinction within manifestation.

And in the movie, you know the villain is or the hero is… say Sean Connery, but you are seeing Umar Muftar.

And you say, Allah, it is Umar Muftar, you know, the great Mujahid, the great Alim, who fought the Italians in Algeria.

It's not Umar Muftar, it's whichever actor is doing the role.

Completely real.

The slave.

The Alif Alam, they said.

Ibn Malik says, Alif Alam is a definite article.

The slaves, meaning everybody, they said.

إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ إِذَا وُضِعَ فِي الْقَبْرِ When the slave is placed in the grave, that's everybody.
