His saying (peace and blessings be upon him): “So Paradise is forbidden to him” — should this not be understood to mean that he will not enter it absolutely?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The questioner : The saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him):

So Paradise is forbidden to him

فالجنة عليه حرام

Does this indicate absolute prohibition, meaning that he will be eternal in the Fire?

The Shaykh : This falls under the category of absolute hadiths that are interpreted by qualified ones. It is forbidden to him, meaning he will not enter it until he is punished for attributing himself to someone other than his father.
