TAFSIR AZWA-UL BAYAN AND ABU TALIB’s FAITH
Abstract
Hazrat Abu Talib is a prominent figure of the begninnings of Islam who has rendered remarkable services for the sake of Islam and the Messenger of God. Unfrotunately, different people have different ideas about his faith. Although according to researchers, Hazrat Abu Talib left hereafter in the state of faith as a follower of Islam; but some people still denay this. Allama Shankaiti (one of the Salafi Wahhabi scholars) and his schoolmates are of the view that he left this world while he was unbeliver.
While demontrationg verse 91 of Surah Hud, Allama Shinqaiti, claims that Abu Talib's defense of the Prophet was based on national prejudice, and not because of his faith.
In this article, the writer has rejected the view of Shinqaiti. According to him, no sufficiant proof has been provided for the national and ethnic bias of Abu Talib’s secrifices in Shinqaiti and his followers writings. And even if It is proved, this does not mean that Abu Talib was a non-believer; as there is no essential tie between national and ethnic bias and disbelief.
Instead, sufficient evediences exist that prove the faith of Abu Talib as the author has provided many references for Abu Talis”s faith in this article in the light of holy Quran, Hadith and history.
