On December 20, a debate or discussion on the "Existence of Truth" (Existence of God) is scheduled between Shamail Abdullah Nadwi and the infamous atheist Javed Akhtar. I believe that Muslims should make a special intention and pray with dedication that Allah, the Lord of Honor, makes this discussion a source of reform and guidance for atheists. Brother Shamail Nadwi must have surely made this intention. May Allah Almighty cause the truth to flow from his tongue in such a way that the falsehood of untruth is completely exposed, and the truth becomes manifest with its full impact before the followers of falsehood. Giving unnecessary advice to Shamail Nadwi and making comments like "we will uproot them" or "we will slam them down" will be highly harmful. Please, Muslims of India, do not turn this healthy intellectual discussion into a battle or conflict; it will cause a great deal of harm, a great deal.

May Allah Almighty cause the truth to flow upon the tongue of Shamail Nadwi as guidance along with its deep impact. Ameen Summa Ameen.
