himself in a synagogue dressed as a Jew. At first he was confused, but when he kept
on seeing the same vision over and over again, he decided to enact it. So, he
dressed himself as a Jew and went to their synagogue.
When the Jews and their scholars were present, their chief Rabbi stood up to speak.
But when he stood up, his tongue became stuck and he could not talk. After he had
been standing quietly for some time, the Jews started to complain. The Rabbi said,
"In this gathering there is a follower of the Prophet Muhammed (sallalahu alayhi
wassalam) and I cannot speak because he has come to examine us."
On hearing this, their anger raged like wildfire and they asked the Rabbi to give
them permission to kill this follower of the Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu alayhi
wassalam). The Rabbi replied, "He cannot be killed without proof, so we must talk to
him peacefully and respectfully and then we can decide."
The Rabbi then said, "Oh follower of Muhammad (sallalahu alayhi wassalam). For the
sake of your Prophet please stand up in your place. If you can remove our doubt
about Islam then we shall accept Islam, but if you can't, then we shall kill you." On
hearing this, Hadhrat Bayazid rahmatullah alayhi stood up and gave permission for
them to question him.

my one question. What is the key to paradise?" The Rabbi replied, "If I give
the answer to this question, this gathering will kill me."
