out, “
Here comes Abu Hanifah, the
Father of Righteousness and True
Religion
.” And so Nu’man came to
be known as Abu Hanifah.
Abu Hanifah’s [rh] knowledge of
Islam was so great that people from
all over the world would come to
learn at his feet. Even the mightiest
Khalif
s chose to follow his teach-
ings and the great Muslim empires
of the past were ruled as Abu
Hanifah [rh] instructed. Today most
Muslims of the world call them-
selves Hanafi because of their pride
and joy that their great-great-
grandparents were taught by the
famous Abu Hanifah [rh], Nu’man
bin Thabit.
Now, once, during the time of
Imam
Abu Hanifah [r], there lived a boat-
man who did not believe in Allah. In
fact he did not believe in any god
whatsoever. He was an athiest.
