Ash-Shafi’ee on Debate: I do not mind if Allah brings the truth through my opponent

Abu Na’eem reported: Ash-Shafi’ee, may Allah have mercy on him, said, “I never debated anyone except that I would love for him to be reconciled, to be satisfied, and to be helped and for him to be in the care of Allah and His protection. And I never debated with anyone except that I did not mind whether Allah clarified the truth on my tongue or his tongue.”

عن أبي نعيم قال الشافعي رحمه الله  مَا نَاظَرْتُ أَحَدًا قَطُّ إِلا أَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ يُوَفَّقَ وَيُسَدَّدَ وَيُعَانَ وَيَكُونَ عَلَيْهِ رِعَايَةٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَحِفْظٌ وَمَا نَاظَرْتُ أَحَدًا إِلا وَلَمْ أُبَالِ بَيَّنَ اللَّهُ الْحَقَّ عَلَى لِسَانِي أَوْ لِسَانِهِ
