Shadee Elmasry – Hakim Salim on the four temperments…

For us to understand the prophetic knowledge, we really need to go

back to this idea of the temperament the massage and

massage actually is a Quranic term.

So we can translate it as temperament or as a personality.

And basically what it is is very easy to anchor this into the four

seasons. So predominantly we have four seasons. And there are four

different types of temperaments. So, you have spring season, which

has a quality of being warm and moist, warm and moist, that

spring, and then you have summer, which is really warm and dry, dry,

warm or hot, warmer, hotter and dry. And then you have what you

call fall here or autumn, which is dry and cold, cold. And then you

have winter, which is a cold and wet. Okay, so you're covered and

moist. So these are the qualities inherent in each of the season. In

a similar way. Predominantly, you have a person that would be one or

more of these temperaments. That was a dump, they'll have a

dominant, they would have a dominant temperament and then they

would have a sub dominant temperament. Would you would you

what would you call this? Well, you have many names for this. So

for example, spring is called Rubby in Arabic. Yeah. And in

English is called sanguine, sanguine. Yeah. So this is someone

who is always going to be in a good mood. They're gonna be having

good mood. Mostly in a good mood. And then you have summer. Okay,

yeah. Which is so frothy swats so far away from yellowness. Yeah.

Which is also known as choleric choleric. Yeah. So they, like

summer, a lot of

while this person is gonna be hot blooded, hot blooded. So why

wouldn't it be red? Like hot blooded? The color that

it's it's not but here's the hot blooded of summer is you have the

yellowness of the bile. Okay. Yeah. So it's not hot blooded, but

choleric, with the irritation and heat, highly irritable, highly

irritable. So they don't necessarily have abundance of

blood, but they have abundance of heat and dryness. So that all they

could do have a temper to they're more relaxed every year, they're

more likely to have a temper. So they're quick to snap, they're

more likely to be outward. Start reminding yourself actually.

So they're very quick to shift moods indeed. Okay, actually, I

think you just diagnosed me right there. Okay, next and then you

have the fall which is the autumn okay. Yeah. Which is more

melancholic melt Okay, so a downer this is like down we may call it

Debbie Downer more internalized more reflected but download and

what would we call that? We call it melancholy melancholy. Oh, in

Arabic. So Davi Yeah. This is older, from the field of soda,

sort of darkness. But this type of person you want to get away from?

Well, we'll come to that. No, you don't want to get away from any

person. Because they all have their strengths and weaknesses.

That's the difference. And then you have the phlegm which is the

winter
