ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ قَوْلَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ أَبَا طَالِبٍ كَانَ مُسْلِمًا
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Abu Talib when death came to him, "Say: There is no god but Allah, and I will intercede for you with it on the Day of Resurrection." Abu Talib said, "O son of my brother, if it were not for fear of the Quraysh's reproach, I would have opened my eyes to it." Then the verse was revealed: "Indeed, you do not guide whom you like."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِأَبِي طَالِبٍ حِينَ حَضَرَهُ الْمَوْتُ «قُلْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَشْفَعْ لَكَ بِهَا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ» قَالَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي لَوْلَا أَنْ تُعَيِّرَنِيَ قُرَيْشٌ لَأَقْرَرْتُ عَيْنَيْكَ بِهَا فَنَزَلَتْ {إِنَّكَ لَا تَهْدِي مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ}
