The boatman had heard of the great
Imam
Abu Hanifah [rh] and thought
it a good idea to question him about
the existence of Allah.
“
If Abu Hanifah can give me no
good answer, and if he fails in prov-
ing to me that Allah exists, then I will
win many Muslims over to my god-
less way,
” he thought to himself.
“Everyone will see how right I am
and how wrong these foolish
Muslims are in believing in some-
thing they cannot see. That will be a
great achievement, I reckon.
”
And so he went searching for the
Imam
. It was not difficult at all as the
great
Imam
would often teach in the
grand
masjid
of the city.
As the boatman entered he called
out in a bold voice, “
O Abu Hanifah!
I challenge you to a debate. I will
prove to all that the god you call
Allah does not exist.
