00:00In the name of Allah, the most beneficent and the merciful.
00:05Once upon a time, there was a king, and he was a wise man too.
00:11In his kingdom, used to live many other wise men.
00:14Now some of these would not agree to believe that God did exist,
00:19while others not only agreed but argued to the satisfaction of the king that there was God.
00:27The king, being a wise man, arranged for a discussion.
00:32The date and time for discussion was fixed.
00:35The king held his court at the appointed time on the appointed date.
00:39The non-believers assembled in his presence, but the believing wise men did not come at the appointed time.
00:48The people waited and waited till they lost their patience and uttered the words,
00:54He has no arguments to advance in support of his conviction, so he will not come.
01:00He has lost. We have won.
01:03At last, the wise men arrived, and there was an uproar in the court of the king.
01:09The people cried, Why are you late? You have lost.
01:12The king asked him to explain the cause of his delay.
01:16The believing wise men explained, saying, I started from my home in time, but when I came by the side of the river,
01:25which I had to cross before reaching here, I did not find a single boat, by which I could cross and reach the opposite bank.
01:34At this point, the disbelieving man heard him patiently, and did not say a single word.
01:43The believing man then continued, I waited and waited, till at last, I saw some planks of wood coming out of the river.
01:52And the unbelieving man began to shout, Oh, it is a lie. It is unbelievable. It is unthinkable.
01:59Continued the believing wise man, plank by plank came out of the river, and then I saw the planks were cut to proper size and proper shape
02:09and joined to each other with nails by themselves, until they formed a boat.
02:17And then I took my seat in it and came over to the other bank.
02:23I am late because of the delay in the availability of the boat, amid or or of the unknown believing man.
02:31The believing wise man tried to convince them of the cause of the delay, but the opponents would not believe him.
02:41Then he said, You don't believe what I say.
02:44It appears the story of the boat farming by itself is something impossible for you to believe.
02:50Now, in the name of justice, I ask you, do you see the earth, the sun, the moon, the stars and the skies, everything is set according to the plan.
03:00But you say it came into existence without a creator.
03:05In other words, you deny the existence of God.
03:09How far is your statement reasonable and justified?
03:13They silenced them all and there was no answer to this.
03:18So, the non-believers lost and the believers win.
03:22So, the non-believers lost and the believers win.
