مسلم مسیحی مناظرانہ مباحث میں ابن تیمیہؒ کےمقدمات

Abstract

Imam Ibn Taymiyyah was blessed by Allah with the best intellectual abilities. He had great intelligence. Therefore, when he had a dialogue or a debate with someone, he used to pile up arguments in support of his position. Therefore, in his life, he had propagated his thoughts well through writing and compilation as well as dialogues. Whenever there is a mention of Imam Ibn Taymiyyah's scholarly interaction with Christians, his book "Al-Jawb al-Sahih Liman Badal Din Al-Masih" is mentioned more often. There is no doubt that Ibn Taymiyyah's book is the best masterpiece of the Muslim stance on Christianity, but his services to Muslim-Christian debates are not limited to this book, but he met with Christians and during these meetings He also had discussions with Christian scholars and monks. There are four of these debates that took place at different places in different times. In these debates, Imam Ibn Taymiyyah discussed the important and basic beliefs of Christians and convinced the Christian scholars through his arguments. These four debates are mentioned in this Article.
