Hadith 94

And it is informed to me by the sheykh Abu Al Fazl Bin Al Husayn Al Hilli, from Muhammad Bin Muhammad Bin Al Ja’fariya, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Al Hassan, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Shahriyar, from Abu Al Hassan Bin Shazan, from Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Babuway, from Abu Ali, from Al Husayn Bin Ahmad Al Maliky, from Ahmad Bin HIlal, from Ali Bin Hassan, from his uncle who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah-asws, ‘The people are alleging that Abu Talib-asws is in the shallowness of the Fire’. He-asws said: ‘They are lying! Jibraeel-as did not descend unto the Prophet-saww with this’. I said, ‘And what did he-as descend with? ’
He-asws said: ‘Jibraeel-as came during some of what had happened upon him-saww. He-as said: ‘O Muhammad-saww! Your-saww Lord-azwj Conveys the Greetings and Says to you-saww: ‘The companions of the cave kept the Eman a secret and manifested the Shirk, so Allah-azwj would Give their Reward twice [28: 54], and that Abu Talib-asws kept the Eman a secret and manifested the Shirk, so Allah-azwj would Give him-as his-as Reward twice, and he-as would not exit from the word until the glad tidings of the Paradise comes to him-as from Allah-azwj the Exalted! ”
Then he-asws said: ‘How can they describe him-as with this and Jibraeel-as had descended on the night Abu Talib-asws passed away. He-as said: ‘O Muhammad-saww! Exit from Makkah for there is no helper for you-saww at it after Abu Talib-asws’’. [164]
