7/11/22 ###My writing will have to depend on the recent events

 In this case, the recent significant event is the somatic hallucinations.

It may be internally induced or it was an external event.  Either way, it was imagined.  That didn't make it less authentic.  As a matter of fact, the experience was very real.

My contention is not about whether it is real or not.  I question the legitimacy of the experience from the perspective of my mental health.

Surely I am not that far off in my state of health when it happened,  Makes me wonder if it was induced.

In s[oft] (short), I am not questioning the supernaturality of the event but of how ordinary it is.

My thought lingered on Mohammad.  I can imagine how tough for him to act as a person who knew it all at his time.  

I think this hadith is funny:

A woman asked the prophet, "What if I have menses.  Am I required to perform solah?"

The prophet replied, "You are not required to solah until you passed the period."

The wom[e]n (woman) asked, " What if after the period passed and I still have menses?"

The prophet replied, "You are not required to solah until you passed the period."

The woman asked again, What if after that I still have menses."

Do you know what the prophet said after that?

"Go plug it up and perform solah."

It sounded like a medieval Rule-of-3 joke to me LOL.

Boy, of all the things...  That was the concern.
