A great sheikh came to the Imam al-Shafei and asked him: What evidence and proof in the religion of Allah? Al-Shaafa'i said: The Book of Allaah. The Sheikh said: And what, else? He said: The Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah. Sheikh said: And what else? He said: the Umma's agreement. The Sheikh said: Where did you say the agreement of the Umma? Al-Shaafa'i said nothing, Skeikh said "I will give you three days. Imam al-Shafei went to his home and continued to read and look for it. Three days later, the sheikh came to the Shafi'i Council, and he saluted and sat down. Al-Shaafa'i said to him: I read the Qur'an every day and night three times until God guided me to the verse: "Whoever shatters the messenger after what is revealed to him is guided and follows the path of the believers. It is contrary to what was agreed by Muslim scholars without a valid proof that God introduced to fire, and worsened fate".Who so ever contradict what Muslim scholars agreed upon without authentic evidence will enter hellfire. Sheikh said: true.
