Day Seven:
Its 11am here now and the temperature is at 40°. I have had a 5 hour sleep which should be good enough to get me going for what is my D Day today.

Despite his great wisdom and fame as a leading scholar and revolutionary of thought in the history of the school of Tashayyu, few written works of Sheikh al-Mufid have survived the years.
