His Excellency Dr. Abdul Aziz Al-Musallam, Chairman of the Institute,, started the talk, in the introductory edition, about the good news of the heat and its season and what it symbolizes in the Emirati heritage, and said: “The good news: It is the good news that the informant does not know, and the good news is what it gives him.” The missionary, the plural glad tidings, the glad tidings of tambourines, and the like, and the Emiratis have used this meaning in many of their literature, as mentioned in their poems and tales.

The harvest that resounds with its musical voice, then the pigeons of al-Raabi, the willows, and Bu Bashir, the beautiful dragonfly, as well as the ball, which is the frog of valleys, trenches, and galleries (i.e., the pooled water), and other things that are imprinted in the memory, and they will never be forgotten.”
