🗣️ The Great Debate: How Allamah al-Hilli Led a Sultan to Shi’ism
In the court of Sultan Muhammad Khodabandeh (Öljaitü) of the Ilkhanate, a historical turning point took place—one that reshaped the religious landscape of Iran. The story is narrated by Muhammad Taqi al-Majlisi in his commentary on Man La Yahduruh al-Faqih, and echoed in works like A'yan al-Shia and Rawdat al-Jannat.

📖 The Background:
One day, in a fit of anger, the Sultan pronounced three divorces (ṭalāq al-thalāth) to his wife — a critical issue in Islamic law.
📌 What is “Three Divorces” (Ṭalāq al-Thalāth)?
It is a divorce pronounced by a husband three times. According to consensus among Shi‘a and Sunni jurists, a woman who has been divorced three times becomes ḥarām (forbidden) for her former husband to remarry — unless she first marries another man, and after that marriage ends (by divorce or death), she may then return to her first husband.
· Shi‘a View: A triple divorce must occur over three separate sessions — the husband must revoke (rujū‘) or remarry between each pronouncement. Pronouncing three divorces in one sitting is invalid.
· Sunni View: It is permissible to pronounce a triple divorce all at once.
The ruling is derived from Quran, Surah Al-Baqarah, verses 229-230.
After calming down, the Sultan deeply regretted his action and sought a religious solution. The Sunni scholars of the four schools were summoned, but none could offer a way to revoke the divorce.
Then, a minister mentioned a scholar who could solve the issue: Allamah al-Hilli (r.a.).

⚔️ The Debate Begins:
A grand assembly was held with scholars from all four Sunni schools present. When Allamah al-Hilli entered, he carried his own shoes and sat beside the Sultan.
When questioned about this unusual act, he replied humorously:
“I feared a Hanafi might steal them, just as their founder stole the Prophet’s (PBUH) sandal!”
The Hanafis protested: “Abu Hanifa wasn’t alive during the Prophet’s time!”
Allamah said: “My mistake—it must have been a Shafi’i!”
And so he repeated the jab for each school, exposing that none of the four founders lived during the Prophet’s era.
Then he turned to the Sultan and said:
“Sunni Muslims have innovated by choosing four imams after the Prophet—while we, the Shi’a, follow Ali (AS), the Prophet’s brother, successor, and the gate to the city of knowledge.”

⚖️ The Ruling on the Divorce:
Regarding the Sultan’s divorce, Allamah declared — based on Shi‘a jurisprudence:
“Your divorce is invalid. One condition for a valid triple divorce is the presence of two just witnesses who hear it. Did two just witnesses hear it?”
The Sultan said no.
“Then the divorce never occurred, and your wife is still lawful to you.”
---
🕯️ The Aftermath:
Allamah then engaged in deep theological debate with the Sunni scholars, answering every objection with clarity and proof. By the end, Sultan Muhammad Khodabandeh embraced Shi’ism right there in the assembly.
During his reign, he gave official recognition to the Shi’a faith, marking a pivotal moment in Iranian history.
