A  Great Conversation


A man came to Iyas Ibn Mu'awiyah, a Muslim judge famous for his wisdom, and the following conversation took place between them:

Man: What is the Islamic ruling regarding wine?

Judge: It is Haram (Forbidden).

Man: How about water?

Judge: It is Halal (Permissible).

Man: How about dates and grapes?

Judge: They are Halal.

Man: Why is it that all these ingredients are Halal, and yet when you combine them, they become Haram?

The judge looked at the man and said: If I hit you with this handful of dirt, do you think it would hurt you?

Man: It would not.

Judge: How about if I hit you with this handful of straw?

Man: It would not hurt me.

Judge: How about a handful of water?

Man: It surely would not hurt me.

Judge: How about if I mix them, and let them dry to become a brick, and then hit you with it, would it hurt you?

Man: It would hurt me and might even kill me!

Judge: The same reasoning applies to what you asked me!!

Another Great Conversation

An Israeli came to Abdullahi Ibnu Abbaas and said:

Your Qur'an mentions that there is Paradice between the Earth and the Sky (Heaven)

Ibn-Abbaas:  yes,

The Isreali: when this comes, the Earth and Sky shall  go where?

Ibn-Abbaas:when the night comes, the day Should go where?

The Israeli: where Allah wishes

Ibn-Abbaas: also the Earth and Sky shall go where Allah wishes.

Shukran, Sis azizah
