Yes, give me details! I feel so bad that I haven’t gotten around to arranging riding at the school in the next village. Aaliya keeps asking me, she is desperate to do it. Bella says she wants to ride a bird instead (?!?)
Open day would be great.

No, sadly I don’t. yet!
the deeper hope and aspiration is to Know the Names experientially though.

I like lace bobbins too!

We don’t just recite 99 names only on beads btw. They are for counting other dhikrs/ remembrances too.
sometimes we will recite, intone, chant one Name only. most commonly Ya Latif - oh, Most Gently Kind - and it leaves it’s effect upon one. I think you can feel something of that even by reading each name and seeing how it makes you feel. but if you want to recite often best stick to Ya Latif. honest.

bedtime now isn’t it!?!

Oh K - yum Althoguh they do remind me of lace bobbins. Do you know all 99 words?

And Daddybean - well quite. But let’s face it, Maddy’s mind is uncharted territory
