A miracle!!

Recommended Posts

Hibo   

A friend of mine from MSA in my school, shared this story with me.. I thought I would pass it down to you all... so enjoy it!

 

 

There was a professor of philosophy who was a deeply committed atheist.

His primary goal for one required class was to spend the entire semester

attempting to prove that God couldn't exist. His students were always afraid

to argue with him because of his impeccable logic.

 

 

For twenty years, he had taught this class and no one had ever had the

courage to go against him. Sure, some had argued in class at times, but

no one had ever really gone against him because of his reputation.

 

At the end of every semester on the last day, he would say to his class

of 300 students "If there is anyone here who still believes in God, stand

up!"

 

In twenty years, no one had ever stood up. They knew what he was going to

do next. He would say, "Because anyone who believes in God is a fool. If

God existed, he could stop this piece of chalk from hitting the ground and

breaking. Such a simple task to prove that He is God, and yet He can't do

it." And every year, he would drop the chalk onto the tile floor of the

classroom and it would shatter into a hundred pieces.

 

All of the students would do nothing but stop and stare. Most of the students

thought that God couldn't exist. Certainly, a number of Christians had slipped

through, but for 20 years, they had been too afraid to stand up. Well, a

few years ago there was a freshman who happened to enroll. He was a muslim,

and had heard the stories about his professor. He was required to take the

class for his major, and he was afraid. But for three months that semester,

he prayed every morning that he would have the courage to stand up no matter

what the professor said, or what the class thought. Nothing they said could

ever shattter his faith...he hoped.

 

Finally, the day came. The professor said, "If there is anyone here who

still believes in God, stand up!" The professor and the class of 300 people

looked at him, shocked, as he stood up at the back of the classroom.

 

The professor shouted, "You FOOL!!! If God existed, he would keep this piece

of chalk from breaking when it hit the ground!"

 

He proceeded to drop the chalk, but as he did, it slipped out of his fingers,

off his shirt cuff, onto the pleat of his pants, down his leg, and off his

shoe. As it hit the ground, it simply rolled away unbroken. The professor's

jaw dropped as he stared at the chalk. He looked up at the young man, and

then ran out of the lecture hall.

 

The young man who had stood, proceeded to walk to the front of the room

and shared his faith in Islam for the next half hour 300 students stayed

and listened as he told of Allah's love for them and to be the followers

Of our beloved prophet Mohammed (saw)
