زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Aql' is considered the defining characteristic of a human being. To say it has 'flown' is a poetic way of saying someone is temporarily acting like an animal or a child. In these regions, 'بيطير العقل' (It makes the mind fly) is one of the most common ways to say something is 'amazing' or 'beautiful.' Egyptians might use 'طيرتلي البرج اللي فاضل' (You flew the last tower I had left), referring to the towers of a castle as parts of the mind. In the Gulf, the phrase is often used in the context of extreme surprise or 'shock and awe' regarding rapid changes or big news.
