ENGLISH
It is narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that 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. But he (Abu Talib) refused to do so. Then Allah revealed this verse: " Verily you canst not guide to the right path whom you love. And it is Allah Who guideth whom He will and He knoweth best who are the guided" (xxviii. 56).
