In our previous discussions, we learned from Al-Balkhi about four core conditions of the soul: anger, terror, sadness, and obsession.
He warns that these conditions, when intensified, can lead to harmful physical and emotional states. In this episode, Dr. Rania Awaad discusses Al-Balkhi’s characterization of these four conditions, including their symptoms and effects on an individual’s wellbeing.
