Zakir Naik – We Say Innaa Lillaahi Wa Innaa Ilayhi Rajioon because of a Polytheists Death

00:00:01 --> 00:00:03

			The sister has posed a question that is
		

00:00:03 --> 00:00:05

			allowed that, can we when
		

00:00:07 --> 00:00:08

			you hear the news of death of a
		

00:00:08 --> 00:00:11

			person. And people normally think that only when
		

00:00:11 --> 00:00:13

			you hear the news of death, do you
		

00:00:13 --> 00:00:14

			have to recite this? It's supposed to be
		

00:00:14 --> 00:00:15

			Quran.
		

00:00:16 --> 00:00:17

			It doesn't say that only when you hear
		

00:00:17 --> 00:00:19

			the news of death, you have to recite.
		

00:00:19 --> 00:00:20

			Anything which you feel
		

00:00:21 --> 00:00:22

			which you feel is not right. For example,
		

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

			if someone falls on also, you can say
		

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

			that doesn't mean that I'm thinking that he's
		

00:00:27 --> 00:00:30

			dead. Some people think when you decide this,
		

00:00:30 --> 00:00:32

			oh, he has only fallen on the earth
		

00:00:32 --> 00:00:32

			and died.
		

00:00:33 --> 00:00:35

			So many Muslims think that you can only
		

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

			recite this when a person dies. It's a
		

00:00:37 --> 00:00:38

			misconception.
		

00:00:38 --> 00:00:41

			Any mishap that happens, any misgiving, you can
		

00:00:41 --> 00:00:42

			say,
		

00:00:43 --> 00:00:44

			Regarding the question,
		

00:00:45 --> 00:00:46

			can you say that
		

00:00:47 --> 00:00:48

			to a person when you hear the news
		

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

			of a non Muslim lying? What is the
		

00:00:50 --> 00:00:53

			meaning of that? The meaning of this recitation
		

00:00:53 --> 00:00:55

			of the Quran is from him we come
		

00:00:55 --> 00:00:57

			and to him we return. Even the non
		

00:00:57 --> 00:00:59

			Muslim has come from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
		

00:00:59 --> 00:01:02

			He has not been evolved from somewhere. Allah
		

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

			is creator. Allah is his rub. Allah is
		

00:01:04 --> 00:01:05

			his saliq.
		

00:01:06 --> 00:01:07

			And he will go back to Allah only
		

00:01:07 --> 00:01:08

			even if he's a mushrik.
		

00:01:09 --> 00:01:12

			So there's no harm in reciting this.
		

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

			Yes, you may not go there and pray
		

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16

			for him because if a person dies at
		

00:01:16 --> 00:01:17

			the mushrik,
		

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

			you cannot pray for him. That's the was
		

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

			in the Quran. If a person dies at
		

00:01:21 --> 00:01:22

			the mushrik,
		

00:01:22 --> 00:01:24

			after he dies, you cannot say, oh,
		

00:01:25 --> 00:01:26

			Allah give him
		

00:01:26 --> 00:01:29

			How can you so that? Allah says clearly
		

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

			in chapter 4 was 48 and chapter 4
		

00:01:31 --> 00:01:32

			was 116
		

00:01:32 --> 00:01:34

			that if a person died, there's a mushrik.
		

00:01:35 --> 00:01:37

			If a person is a mushrik, Allah will
		

00:01:37 --> 00:01:39

			never forgive the sin of shirk. If before
		

00:01:39 --> 00:01:41

			dying, if the mushrik repents, Allah will forgive
		

00:01:41 --> 00:01:43

			him. But if a person died at the
		

00:01:43 --> 00:01:46

			mushrik, he shall never go to Jannah. So
		

00:01:46 --> 00:01:48

			you cannot pray for him for Jannah.
		

00:01:48 --> 00:01:51

			You can very well say that from Allah
		

00:01:51 --> 00:01:53

			has come and to Allah has returned, there's
		

00:01:53 --> 00:01:54

			no problem at all. Hope that answers the
		

00:01:54 --> 00:01:55

			question.
