The repentance of Ibn Khatal before his killing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, did the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) ask Ibn Khatal to repent before killing him?
Answer:
This is not mentioned; it is not mentioned that he asked him to repent. Rather, he ordered him to be killed. He was clinging to the curtains of the Ka'bah. He ordered him to be killed because he was mocking the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and insulting the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) with his poetry. So his severity was intensified. And whoever’s severity is intensified is killed and not asked to repent. Yes.
