Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: Does everyone who becomes a wali (close friend of Allah) and through whom extraordinary events occur by the permission of Allah enter Paradise, as in the saying of Allah the Exalted:
For them are good tidings in the worldly lifeلَهُمُ الْبُشْرَىٰ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا
[Yunus 10:64]


Answer:
If he dies upon Islam, if he dies upon Islam, he enters Paradise. But if he dies upon other than Islam, a person is not protected from error; he may deviate or go astray. So if he dies upon other than Islam, he will not be among the people of the Fire; the criterion is the final state. However, the general rule is that the one whom Allah takes under His care and who becomes among the awliya (close friends of Allah) is preserved by Allah, and Allah seals his end with good. Yes, otherwise he is not protected; the wali (close friend of Allah) is not protected. Yes.
