Abu Hanifa and some Athiests

Abu Hanifa and some Athiests

Some athiests once questioned Imam Abu Hanifa (may Allah be pleased with him) what proof he had of the existance of the creator (mighty and majestic), and they said he had to convince them or suffer.

He told them, "Leave me alone! I must think about a strange event that has been reported to me. I have been told that there is a ship at sea, heavily laden with various kinds of merchandise; and although there is no one on board to steer and guard her, it comes and goes by herself, ploughing through enormous waves and going where she pleases."

They told him, "No intelligent man would say such a thing."

He replied, "Wretches! And yet you say that all these existant beings, in the higher and lower worlds, and every intricately precise thing they contain, have no maker?"

At this they were dumbfounded, and, returning to the truth, they entered Islam at his hands.

How can an Atheist deny this

When the athiest denies everything the we use this denial of everything as starting point. He claims he is free to do as he wants and nothing can stop him.

Ask him not breathe again – he cannot do that

Ask him not to eat again – he cannot do that

Ask him not to go to toilet again – he cannot do that

Ask him not to sleep ever – he cannot do that

Ask him not to blink again – he cannot do that

Ask him not to exist in time – he cannot do that

Ask him not to take up space – he cannot do that

Ask him not to die when his time comes – he cannot do this either

So what does this all prove? This proves even though he denys God he is still under his control because God made man this way and it is unescape to do anything but what you are made to do. If someone refuses this, then it is like a man who travels by train and does not care about the fact that someone made, designed and worked on the train before he could ever use it. The atheist denies that there is any designer or any worker. He gets on the train uses it everyday and rejects any notion of a designer.

One day the designer comes and asks him why he has been denying him and the atheist refuses again. Don’t you think that the designer is going to be angry? Don’t you think that the ungratefulness of the passenger will be punished, the designer may throw the person of the train or worse!

Then compare this to the one who respects the designer and acknowledges the design work of the train then when he sees the designer he is grateful. Don’t you think that the designer will be happy with this passenger? He will get put into first class, at least!

So who do want to be? The denier or the accepter? How long can someone refuse God for? Then someone must need a religion now, what religion to follow? The only text which is unchanged is the Quran and therefore the only religion left is Islam.

God proof

A desert dweller was once asked how do you know God exists?

He said, “Well, when I see camel dung I know that camels passed by here. When I see footsteps in the sand, I know that someone had walked by. When I look around at the world, I can tell that something had to make this.” Ie. God.

Look at stars isn't the one who made this beauty, beautiful?

Give me a Proof for God?

Can your prove he doesn't? No you can't, what you are really saying is that your belief in God is not there.

Denying the existence of God is like using a computer and refusing to believe that it was built by Microsoft and Bill gates. How do you think he will feel when he finds out and do you think he allow you to live on his estate?

If someone believes him and works for him, what do you think that person will get?

Think.
