Question:
He says: May Allah reward you, how do you reconcile the saying of Allah the Exalted,[An-Nahl 16:36], with the existence of the people of the period of ignorance (ahl al-fatra)?
Answer:
The call of the messengers who came before them reached them. They had remnants of the religion of Ibrahim (peace be upon him), they had remnants of the religions of the previous messengers, they had remnants of the call that reached them, and that there were messengers and that there was a call to Allah, and that this had reached them. Yes.
He says: May Allah reward you, how do you reconcile the saying of Allah the Exalted,
And We certainly sent into every nation a messenger, [saying], "Worship Allah and avoid Taghut."
