Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do you reconcile the statement of Allah, Glorified and Exalted, to Pharaoh,[Yunus 10:91], given that he uttered "There is no god but Allah," with the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) request to his uncle Abu Talib to say it at the time of his death?
Answer:
Before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, he spoke about him before the soul reached the throat. Abu Talib was of sound mind and heard what the Messenger was saying and understood it. Before the soul reached the throat, he understood and heard. This was before the soul reached the throat. As for Pharaoh, this only happened after the soul reached the throat, after the throat was seized. The throat was seized, and he was certain of death. Yes.
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do you reconcile the statement of Allah, Glorified and Exalted, to Pharaoh,
Now? And you had disobeyed [Him] before
