nnir has been replaced by gnus-search in Emacs 28 -- this configuration
should get you obsolete variable warnings. Replacement config is pretty
direct:

(setq gnus-search-default-engines '((nnml . namazu)))
(setq gnus-search-namazu-index-directory (expand-file-name "~/.namazu-mail"))
(setq gnus-search-namazu-remove-prefix "/home/wyousef/Mail/")

Try that...
