حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا قَيْسٌ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْخَلِيلِ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: وَاسْمُهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْخَلِيلِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا ؓ، يَقُولُ:

صَلَّى رَجُلٌ إِلَى جَنْبِي، فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَسْتَغْفِرُ لِأَبَوَيْهِ، وَقَدْ مَاتَا مُشْرِكَيْنِ، فَقُلْتُ: تَسْتَغْفِرُ لِأَبَوَيْكَ وَقَدْ مَاتَا مُشْرِكَيْنِ ؟ فَقَالَ لِي: قَدِ اسْتَغْفَرَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِأَبَوَيْهِ، فَلَمْ أَدْرِ مَا أَرُدُّ عَلَيْهِ، فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: وَمَا كَانَ اسْتِغْفَارُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لأَبِيهِ الْآيَةَ

✧ A man prayed beside me, and I heard him asking forgiveness for his parents, who had died as polytheists. I said: 'You ask forgiveness for your parents while they died as polytheists?' He said to me: 'Abraham asked forgiveness for his parents.' I did not know how to reply to him. I came to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned that to him, and God, Mighty and Majestic, revealed: 'And Abraham's asking forgiveness for his father was only because of a promise he had made to him...' [Quran 9:114].
