Sahih Muslim Hadith - 6

prev    next   
Narrated AbuHurayrah

The Messenger of Allah said to his uncle (at the time of his death): Make a profession of it that there is no god but Allah and I will bear testimony (of your being a Muslim) on the Day of Judgment. He (AbuTalib) said: Were it not the fear of the Quraysh blaming me (and ) saying that it was the fear of (approaching death) that induced me to do so, I would have certainly delighted your eyes. It was then that Allah revealed: Verily thou can not guide to the right path whom thou lovest. And it is Allah Who guideth whom He will and He knoweth best who are the guided (xxviii.56).

We can't imagine the kind of pain this brought our messenger (saw). Abu Talib made the mistake of putting his nation, his tribe of Quraysh before Allah and His Messenger (saw), even though he knew it was the truth, and this cost him everything.
