Abu Talib

Question:

salaam,

Did Abu Talib become a Muslim before he passed away? Thank you.

Answer:

`Alaykum Salam

Our view is as Mawlana Shaykh Nazim said in his Suhbat of 27 September 2010: Abu Talib is of the people of Paradise, period. You may study the evidence in Shaykh Ahmad Zayni Dahlan’s book Asna al-Matalib, some of which we mentioned in our article “Did Abu Talib die a Muslim?” At sunnah.org. We do not enter into further discussion regarding this as what he presented is clear and complete for people in need of proofs.

Respect for Prophet regarding his family is our entire religion and we walk on eggs on such issues so beware of idle chatter posing as defense of Sunni creed. Success is from Allah and He knows best.

See the Article “Did Abu Talib die a Muslim” at sunnah.org for further explanation.
