Re: Believer Ask Forgiveness Of Non-Believer (Polytheist)

Peace All,

@Sa1eem

Important message in this ayah 9:113 is … ‘’after it has become clear about them that they are the people of Hell.” … Now, tell me how it could become clear to anyone, that the person who died is surely a hell dweller?

brother Sa1eem,

I wonder why you quoted half portion of the verse 113? In the very same verse word ‘polytheist’ is mentioned and one who associate another deity i.e., do ‘shirk’ is a surely a hell dweller. This verse is immaculate and very easy to understand. I unable to understand what u r upto?

@TLK

I believe we can and here is my reference (please remember that his faster was not just an idol worshipper, but idol carver)

Duane of Ibrahim(Abraham (A.S) for forgiveness for his parents:

رَبَّنَا اغْفِرْ لِي وَلِوَالِدَيَّ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَوْمَ يَقُومُ الْحِسَابُ (14:41)

Rabbana ighfir lee waliwalidayya walilmumineena yawma yaqoomu alhisabu

“Our Lord! Forgive me and my parents, and (all) the believers on the Day when the reckoning will be established.”
Al-Qur’an, 14.041 (Ibrahim[Abraham])

Brother TLK,

Hazrat Ibrahim a.s., said this before he declared himself innocent from his father, after he became sure that he was an enemy of Almighty Allah.

Hazrat Ibrahim a.s., continued asking for forgiveness for his father for the rest of his father’s life. When his father died an idolator and He realized this fact, he stopped asking Allah for forgiveness for him and disassociated himself from him.

Also invoking for his father’s forgiveness was only because of a “promise” he had made to him. But when it became clear to him that he was an enemy to Almighty Allah, He dissociated himself from him.
