A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THIS GOD WILL GUIDE WHOM HE WILL VERSE NO.56ِ57

      All the Muslims have unanimously testified that, HAZRAT ABUTALIB, the prophet's uncle, was his most sincere supporter, most faithful protector, and more loving him than any father could love his son.

      Why then some of the narrators have tried to present him as a faithless and even non-Muslim. And this is while they are so tolerant and careless about others who played no effective role in the scenery of Islam and yet they pulled themselves to the top of affairs without any right.

      This will lead us to know that the head of such dangerous strings of political play was in the hand of the rivals and antagonists of Hazrat Imam Ali (AS). They have always insisted to deny his natural and religious virtues and instead of that, forge some weak points for him.

As a matter of fact, they have always been throwing ashes upon the face of light, in order to conceal it, but the light has always jumed upon the surface of the ashes.

      Certainly, the Ommayids nasty dynasty did their best in this regard, and came no short; and such traditions that we still hear them, are nothing but the traces of their dirty worldly endeavours in this respect.

      The above phrase (you cannot guide whoever you like) has therefore nothing to do with HAZRAT ABUTALIB, and as we said; was revealed on the occasion of a group of pagan Arabs who stubbornly rejected the Message of God, and contrary to them, a group of Christians who studied deeply and by FREE WILL accepted and supported the Message.

      It also is worthy of note that the fanatic Sonni commentator, (FAKHR-RAZI) who has narrated the said occasion of revelation with successive witnesses, has also stipulated that the verse has nothing to do with ABUTALIB.

      The only reason that Sonni expounders of Qurän have used to prove that Abutalib died non-Muslim, is what they have called it, the collective opinion of all Muslims; while this proof is not true, and there has not ever been a consensus of opinion on this issue among all sects of Muslims.

      Another important Sonni commentator is ÄLOSI, who has written in his famous ROOH-AL-MAANI, that, those who have said there is a broad consensus of opinion on this issue are wrong, because Muslims do differ widely on this respect, among whom we may name are all the Shiites and also the infallible Imams.

      The most important narrator of this tradition is said to have been ABUHORAIREH. They say he has personally witnessed Abutalib's death bed, when Mohammad (SA) said to his uncle; testify that there is no god save Allah, and the uncle answered; if Quraish would not reproach me and accuse me of having testified by fear, I would announce my faith in Monotheism to please you!!!

      This is while we are sure that ABUHORAIREH declared to be a Muslim at the conquest of KHAIBAR. This event was seven years after Emigration, while Abutalib died several years before Emigration (HIJRAT). And if you say ABUHORAIREH was not present at Abutalib's death bed, but might have heard that from some one else, the question then shall be:- ``Who the some one else was?''
