تَابِعُ مُسْنَدِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
Continuation of the Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 6178 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Abu Talib
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَارِثُ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لِأَبِي طَالِبٍ حِينَ حَضَرَهُ الْمَوْتُ: «قُلْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَشْفَعُ لَكَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»، قَالَ: يَا ابْنَ أَخِي لَوْلَا أَنْ تُعَيِّرَنِي قُرَيْشٌ لَأَقْرَرْتُ عَيْنَكَ بِهَا، فَنَزَلَتْ {إِنَّكَ لَا تَهْدِي مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ} [القصص: 56]
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Abu Talib when death approached him: "Say 'La ilaha illallah' so that I may intercede for you on the Day of Resurrection." He said: "My nephew! Were it not that Quraysh would taunt me, I would have said this word and cooled your eyes (gladdened you)." Then the verse was revealed: "Indeed, you cannot guide whom you love."
