The poet and writer Ibrahim Tali' Al-Alamy remains the fruit of the councils and the focus of attention of many of those who meet him. There is nothing in his dictionary but love and nothing he has that goes beyond (exhibition). In “Abwab” he opens his heart full of love and optimism to us at a time of disappointments in this Ramadan dialogue.
• What do you miss in the current Ramadan?
•• The face of (and your mother Fatima), may God have mercy on her..
• Ramadan is stuck in your memory… with what?
•• With my mother's yeast bread and its dallah, a handful of green thafaa from my father's farm, and a taste of the melody of (Mutawa'a), and the clan recited after every two rak'ahs of Taraweeh: (Glory be to the King, the Holy)..
On the table, something you prefer other than food?
•• My cat called (Qutusa) is malicious and deceives us while she insists on sharing the table with us..
• Do you prefer the day of Ramadan or its tumultuous evenings?
•• I have no hustle at night..the day is the art of deprivation, and the night is summer, memory and grief..
• Personalities with whom you wish to share the Ramadan Iftar?
The parents and nothing else.
• A Ramadan dish not to be missed from your table?
•• Algerian harira and baghrir bread (similar to what we call lahouh)..
Do you fast from social networking sites in Ramadan?
I wished and couldn't..
• Music stuck in your mind associated with Ramadan.
•• The filming of the program (Umm Hadijan) – Abdulaziz Al-Hazza – from the radio before I imagined something called a screen..
• How much is the total bill for "Ramadan lawsuits"?
•• Like other months, I do not know that I bought one riyal for Ramadan without what was made for me by a hand (sweeping it) just as the writer / Ibrahim explains the etymology of Mrs. Mahdia.
• Where does the "Ramadan Iftar" compass go outside the home?
If I break my fast outside my house, I do not consider myself fasting.
• What do you watch on TV, other than the Maghrib call to prayer?
Al-Asouf, which we really lived through, was alive in Riyadh, except for the boom whose feet wandered from us in Riyadh.
• Battles you wish to close their chapters in Ramadan?
I don't feel that there is anything worth calling a battle.
• A city you wish to spend Ramadan in. And why?
•• Ghardaïa in Algeria, the city of the poet of the revolution Mufdi Zakaria, the country of occasional rituals, and the Japan of the Amazighs..
• In Ramadan, does the index of religiosity rise, and why?
A: I do not think that what we see is an increase in religiosity, but rather they are voluntary psychological expressions that express what the human being feels in the face of nihilism and in front of his actions.. If it was naturally religious, it would not be seasonal…
Do you believe in the blessing of death during the days of Ramadan, especially the last ten days?
•• There are no blessings in death, but rather a grievance over parting like your faces..
• Are household vows a thing of the past?
•• I think so. There is nothing left of it except a false representation that does not fall within the jurisprudence of the purposes.
• a door you came out of stuck in your memory?
•• The door of my childhood house, when I put on the white puff cloth that my father had sewed as a bag for my books, and then I went out to (a scholar) in the town of Al-Batila, the first shocks of my civilization and my amazement..
• How do you see the world today?
•• He returns towards the day of his first formation towards the instinct, albeit slowly and for a long time, and gets rid of selfishness by all means, even through wars and erosion..
• What is your position on global warming issues?
•• I am not close to oil. I have (the well of Fatimah) on my farm, which is adjacent to my friend (Ibr Sayad), and as long as the well is flooding us, we do not know the meaning of retention.
• If you had to choose between living alone on a secluded island or living in a bustling city crowded with people. what are you going to choose?
•• (The wolf howled, so I became comfortable with the wolf when it howled
And a man voted, and I almost flew).
And I stipulate that there should be in my islands of writers:
The stars of the Almaa Cultural Council, their neighborhood and their dead – Muhammad Al-Salami – Amer Jaber – Follower Al-Hadi..
• A book that I regret reading..what is it?
•• Al-Mustaqni’, which took an effort from us, increased by forcing us to memorize it by heart, and it was possible to invest our memory in a better way than it and to facilitate these jurisprudential issues as they are now.. and restrict our success in scientific institutes to memorizing the books of Sayyid Qutb, Abi Al-Hasan Al-Nadawi and Abi Al-A’la Al-Mawdudi, and after consuming Our memories of it decided to prevent it, but the memories could not (dissolve), so Mahdi, Juhayman, and others came out from among us. In all of this, stress is placed on memory that is difficult to format.
• What icon touches your finger the most on your phone?
•• The WhatsApp that I am addressing you with now..
• During your career.. Did your sail go as your wind desires?
•• As you know, it is fortunate for me that my only sail is love, so I felt that I lived by it and moved on by it, and it is the one who controls the wind..
• When did you feel let down last time?
•• I have never felt let down. Our disappointments are not letting us down, rather they are our capabilities, and we may get angry involuntarily until we pay attention and then raise our anger and stupidity.
• If you sat for 5 minutes with the sheikh of the terrorists, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, what would you say to him?

• Are you afraid of the robot and its competition with the working human being in the future?
•• Rather, I fear for the robot that the human crowds with it, until the latter turns into a stupid robotic memory and feelings..
Does the paper smell? Do you read books on tablets? How would you describe the sound of turning pages?
•• Book pages still remind you that there is something called revelation of all kinds. The devices so far provide the best information, but without salt.
