Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner is asking about the meaning of the saying of Allah the Exalted:
And my advice will not benefit you - although I wished to advise youوَلَا يَنفَعُكُمْ نُصْحِي إِنْ أَرَدتُّ أَنْ أَنصَحَ لَكُمْ
[Hud 11:34]


Answer:
If Allah is the name of Allah, if it is Allah. Allah wants to lead you astray. Yes. This is Noah (peace be upon him) saying:
And my advice will not benefit you - although I wished to advise you - If Allahوَلَا يَنفَعُكُمْ نُصْحِي إِنْ أَرَدتُّ أَنْ أَنصَحَ لَكُمْ إِن كَانَ اللَّهُ
[Hud 11:34]
He has decreed and destined for you going astray; will not your advice benefit you? He said this at the end of the matter when he had lost hope, and it was said to him:
No one will believe from your people except those who have already believedأَنَّهُ لَن يُؤْمِنَ مِن قَوْمِكَ إِلَّا مَن قَدْ آمَنَ
[Hud 11:36]
At that point, he said: What benefit is there in advice, since the decree and destiny have preceded?
