Abu Yusuf (ra) said: Whoever seeks religion through philosophy will not escape heresy. ‏‎قال أبو يوسف القاضي: من طلب الدّين بالفلسفة لم يسلم من الزّندقة العقد الفريد ٢/٧٨ — ابن عبد ربه الأندلسي (ت ٣٢٨)
Abu Hanifa vs Atheism it was narrated that a group of atheists once gathered around Abū Hanīfah (ra) and asked him: “what is the proof for the existence of a Creator?” he replied, “leave me for a moment, for my mind is preoccupied with a strange matter.” they asked, “what is it?” he said, “i have been told that on the Tigris there is a huge ship, filled with all kinds of wondrous goods, which goes back and forth without anyone moving it and without a captain in charge of it.” they said to him, “are you insane?” he asked, “why is that?” they replied, “would any rational person believe such a thing?” he then said to them, “then how have your minds accepted that this world, with all it contains of varieties, types, and astonishing events, and this orbiting, moving firmament, could exist without a Creator; that these events occur without one who brings them into being; and that these moving things move without a mover?” so they turned back upon themselves in regret.
