famous Imam Abu Hanifa (may Allah have mercy on him).

 Once upon a time there was a person who hated Islam. He had three famous questions that no one could answer at that time. What is God doing now, who was before God and where is God's direction? A 10-year-old boy asked this man. I heard Muslims being mocked. He was openly challenging Muslims to answer three questions. 

Even no Islamic scholar in the whole of Baghdad could answer his three questions... Thus this man was constantly making fun of Islam. One day a little boy, aged 10, heard this man mocking Muslims in the street. He was openly challenging Muslims to answer three questions. 

The boy stood watching silently. He then decided to try to get the man to answer these three questions. He went up to the man and said to him, "I will accept your challenge". The man laughed at the boy and further mocked the Muslims by saying, "A ten-year-old boy challenges me."Is there no other worthy servant among you? But the boy patiently repeated his position. He would challenge the man and, with the help and guidance of Allah, consider himself capable of answering the man's questions. The man finally agreed. The whole town gathered around a small "hill" where open sermons were usually held. The man climbed the hill, and asked his first question out loud. What are you doing?" The little boy thought for a while and then told the man to come down the hill. Go and allow him to go up to answer the question. The man said, "What? You want me to come down?" The boy replied, "Yes. I have to answer." The man came down and 10 years old. Kalaka climbed the hill with his little feet. 

The little boy replied, "O Allah, the Most High! Be my witness before all these people. You have only desired that a disbeliever be brought down to a lower level, and a Muslim to be brought up to a higher level. That is, Allah." God is doing it."

The crowd cheered and shouted. Allah is great, Allah is great."

The man was humiliated, but he boldly asked his second question... "What was before your God?"

The little boy thought. He asked the man to count backwards from 10. "The man counted..." The boy asked, "What comes before 0?" The man replied: "I don't know... nothing."

Boy: "Exactly. There was nothing before Allah, for He is Eternal and Absolute." The crowd again cheered... "Allahu Ho Akbar!" The man was now fully satisfied. But he asked his last question in despair, "In which direction is your Allah?"

The boy thought and thought. The boy asked for a candle. A candle was brought for him. The blessed child handed it to the man and asked him to light it. The man did so and asked the child, "What does this prove?" The child asked, "Which direction is the light going from the candle?" The man replied, “It's going in all directions.” The boy: “You've answered your own question. Allah's light (noor) goes in every direction. 

"The crowd again cheered...." Takbeer! "...." Allah is great!!! "The man was so impressed and impressed by the boy's knowledge and spirituality, he accepted Islam and became a student of the young boy. So the debate ended. 

This child later became a great scholar and famous Imam Abu Hanifa (may Allah have mercy on him).
