Why Is Sinbuya Asvari Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Abu Yunis Sinbuya Asvāri was the originator of the idea of Qadariyah, the doctrine of free-will in Islam. He was a Persian who was put to death by the Umayyad caliph Abd al-Malik, or, according to other narratives, by al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf. His idea was already taught in Damascus at the end of the seventh century of our era by Ma'bad al-Juhani , who had imbibed the doctrine from Sinbuya.
