When Abū Ṭālib was in his death bed, the Prophet went to him while Abū Jahl was sitting beside him. The Prophet said: "O my uncle! Say: "None has the right to be worshipped except Allāh, an expression I will defend your case with, before Allāh." Abū Jahl and 'Abdullah b. Umaiya said: "O' Abū Ṭālib! Will you leave the religion of 'Abd al-Muṭṭalib?" So they kept on saying this to him so that the last statement he said to them was: "I am on the religion of 'Abd al-Muṭṭalib." Then the Prophet said: " I will keep on asking Allāh's forgivenesses for you unless I am forbidden to do so." Then the following Verse was revealed: "It is not fitting for the Prophet and the believers to ask Allāh's forgiveness for the pagans, even if they were their are near relatives, after it has become clear to them that they are the dwellers of the Fire." The other Verse was also revealed: "Verily, you guide not whom you like, but Allāh guides whom He wills."

Imām Bukhāri had lost his sight in his days as a youth, and he visited many skilled doctors, but no treatment was of any success. His mother was a pious woman and used to pray to Allāh vigorously for the return of her son's eyesight. One night in her dream, she saw the Prophet Ibrāhim, who told her that Allāh had accepted her prayers because of her tears in front of Him and her sons sight would return. In the morning, as Imām Bukhāri got up from his bed, glimmers of light reached out into his eyes, and his eyesight was fully restored. ‎● {مقدمة فتح الباري | البداية والنهاية} Share the channel so others may benefit: https://t.me/BeneficialKnowledge
