Habaa 0 Posted January 4, 2009 assalamu alaikum ** A Dialogue Between A Scholar And An Alcoholic** Alcoholic: Do you think i am doing wrong by eating a date? Scholar: No. Alcoholic: And if i ate with some grass? Scholar: There is nothing wrong with that. Alcoholic: And if i were to wash them down with water? Scholar: Drink and enjoy. Alcoholic: Since all that is permissible, then why do you forbid us from alcohol, which consists of the above mentioned ingredients? Scholar: IF i poured water on top of you, would that hurt you? Alcoholic: No it would not. Scholar: And if i were to sprinkle some dirt in that, would you be hurt? Alcoholic: That would not harm me. Scholar: But if i were to mix water and dirt together and through a process make a brick from those two elements, and then were i to throw that large brick at you, would you be hurt? Alcoholic: That would kill me. Scholar: The same goes for the alcohol. Gems and Jewels by Abdul Malik Mujahid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shez 0 Posted January 6, 2009 :sl: similar story heard by me but where someone said to a scholar: Q: If the shaitan is made of fire then how can the fire hurt him? i.e when he will go to hell. A: The scholar picked up lump of clay and hit him and replied "You are made of clay but when i hit you with the clay it hurt you didnt it?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
