[Machine] Indeed, the polytheists used to go around the Kaaba saying "Labbayka, labbayka, lā sharīka laka," and the Prophet ﷺ would respond "Qad qad." They would then say "il-la shariqun huwa laka tamlikuhu wa ma malak," and "ghufrānak, ghufrānak." Allah then revealed, "And Allah would not punish them while you are among them, nor will He punish them while they seek forgiveness" (Quran 8:33). Ibn Abbas said, "They had the protection of the Prophet ﷺ and seeking forgiveness." The Prophet ﷺ passed away, but seeking forgiveness remained. Allah also revealed, "And why should Allah not punish them while they avert people from al-Masjid al-Haram and they were not its guardians? Its protectors are none but the righteous, but most of them do not know" (Quran 8:34). This is the punishment of the Hereafter, while that (punishment in this life) is the punishment of the world.  

إِنَّ الْمُشْرِكِينَ كَانُوا يَطُوفُونَ بِالْبَيْتِ فَيَقُولُونَ لَبَّيْكَ لَبَّيْكَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ فَيَقُولُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَدْ قَدْ فَيَقُولُونَ إِلَّا شَرِيكٌ هُوَ لَكَ تَمْلِكُهُ وَمَا مَلَكَ وَيَقُولُونَ غُفْرَانَكَ غُفْرَانَكَ قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {وَمَا كَانَ اللهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَأَنْتَ فِيهِمْ وَمَا كَانَ اللهُ مُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَهُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ} [الأنفال 33] فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ كَانَ فِيهِمْ أَمَانَانِ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ وَالِاسْتِغْفَارُ قَالَ فَذَهَبَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ وَبَقِيَ الِاسْتِغْفَارُ {وَمَا لَهُمْ أَلَّا يُعَذِّبَهُمُ اللهُ وَهُمْ يَصُدُّونَ عَنِ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَمَا كَانُوا أَوْلِيَاءَهُ إِنْ أَوْلِيَاؤُهُ إِلَّا الْمُتَّقُونَ} [الأنفال 34] قَالَ فَهَذَا عَذَابُ الْآخِرَةِ وَذَلِكَ عَذَابُ الدُّنْيَا
