Story of one of the most famous of Imam Ash Shafī'ī students, Al Buwayti rahimahullah. 🌹
When he refused to say that the Quran was created, he was imprisoned until he died in his prison cell in the year 231 Hijri.
When he (rahimahullah) used to hear the adhan of Jumu'ah from his prison cell, he would bathe, wear his best clothes and walk to the main gate of the prison intending to go for the prayer. But the guards refused him. He would then say: “O Allāh I responded to the call, but these have barred me.”
