In some Islamic countries, the pure creed has not spread; are they excused due to ignorance?

Question:
A questioner says: In some Islamic countries, the pure creed has not spread; are they excused due to ignorance?

Answer:
No.
And this Qur'an was revealed to me that I may warn you thereby and whomever it reaches.وَأُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنُ لِأُنذِرَكُم بِهِ وَمَن بَلَغَ
[Al-An'am 6:19]
So, if the Qur'an reaches a person who is an Arab, the argument is established against him, because if he had wanted to understand, he would have understood. But he did not want to understand; he did not investigate, he did not ask, he did not learn. This person is not excused, because he is the one who fell short. As for a non-Arab, if the Qur'an reaches him, it is obligatory that its meaning be translated for him, its meanings, a translation of the meanings of the Noble Qur'an. Yes.
