ABU TALIB The faithful of Quraysh<br />

partner. Then he talked about some of the attributes of <strong>All</strong>ah the Almighty. He<br />

described Him as the liberal Giver, the Initiator, Who had initiated the creation from<br />

nothing and the Resurrector, Who would resurrect His creatures after death. It was a<br />

clear confession of the great day; the Day of Resurrection when the scales of justice<br />

would be put to weigh the deeds where there would be no injustice or wrong. Then he<br />

said in the other verse that all the creatures were servants of <strong>All</strong>ah; whether those, who<br />

were under the Heaven or those, who were above the Heaven. Would monotheism be<br />

something other than this? Did Abu Talib, after this saying, let an outlet for any doubter or<br />

suspector? Was our saying There is no god but <strong>All</strong>ah in its monotheistic meaning<br />

clearer than these verses of Abu Talib? Abu Talib recited too: O you the witness of <strong>All</strong>ah!<br />

Witness that I am on the religion of Prophet Ahmed.[589] Let whoever deviates from the<br />

religion know that I am guided.[590] <strong>Here</strong> Abu Talib confessed that he was on the religion<br />

of his nephew and then he said that whoever didnt follow this religion would be deviant<br />

whereas he himself followed this religion and became guided. By your God! Wasnt this<br />

saying greater in meaning than to say: I am a Muslim? If someone said to you that he was<br />

a Muslim, wouldnt he be treated like the other Muslims concerning the rights and the<br />

obligations? Wouldnt his blood, property and honor be protected and no one had any<br />

right to violate any thing of that? So what about this man; Abu Talib, who announced his<br />

faithfulness so loudly and who asked the witness of <strong>All</strong>ah to witness that he was guided<br />

?by the religion of his nephew, that people denied his being a Muslim<br />

part 2<br />

It was but deviation that covered the eyes thickly and prevented them from seeing the<br />

brightness of the truth! <strong>Here</strong> is something else of Abu Talibs poetry: <strong>All</strong>ah had honored<br />

Prophet Muhammad, who became the most honored among all the peoples of Him. <strong>All</strong>ah<br />

had derived a name for him from His own name to glorify him; the Lord was<br />

Mahmood[591] and His apostle was Muhammad.[592] These verses had many things of<br />

monotheism and confession of the prophecy of Prophet Muhammad (s). As for what<br />

concerned his confession of the prophecy of his nephew, there were much many things,<br />

some of which was mentioned in the previous chapters of this book. <strong>Here</strong> we quoted<br />

some individual verses chosen from Abu Talibs poems. Some of them might be<br />

mentioned in the previous chapters: You are the Prophet; the Prophet of <strong>All</strong>ah that we<br />

know well, to you the books of the Almighty have been revealed. Dont you know that
