A ZOROASTER MAN IS FILLED WITH ADMIRATION FOR SENSITIVITY

A ZOROASTER MAN IS FILLED WITH ADMIRATION FOR SENSITIVITY

As being passed on, Hazret Imâm-ı Âzam Ebû Hanife (an İslamic leader, 699 - 767) has goods on a Zoroaster man. To want it, Imâm-ı Âzam goes to his house. When he comes to the front of the door, his shoes get muddy and to purify, he shakes his foot. But that mud pastes on the wall of Zoroaster man’s house. Imam does not know what to do, because if  he tries to clean it, the wall will be decayed. And if he leaves, the wall will stay dirty because of  his shoe’s mud.

He decides to ask it to the owner of the wall, knockes his door. Imam said to the maid:

“Inform your master,   ‘Ebu Hanife is waiting for you.’

The man comes, thinking that Ebu Hanife comes for wanting his goods, so he startes to apologize.

Imâm Âzam answers:

“That is not the matter now.”

And he tells about the wall and asks. “How can I clean the wall, tell me.”

In the face of this precision and sensitivity, Zoroastrian man is very affected and says,

“Before everything, I should start by purifying myself first!”

 and he becomes Muslim at thereupon.

PROSTRATING MYSELF IN PRAYER

Dr. Timothy Gianotti says that;

I feel the peace when I prostrate myself in prayer. I FEEL MYSELF MORE CONFIDENT. It is like in the climate of greeting. And when I prostrate myself in prayer, I feel as if I am coming my home from far away. Possibly, like reaching Allah! It is all that I can tell about. Ritual worship is a feeling of confidence, peace and stillness.
