Assalammualaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
Taubat
Sayyidina Wahshi r.a. was the person who killed Sayyidina Hamzah r.a. When he intended to accept islam, he sent a letter to Rasulullah s.a.w. stating his intentions, but added that the following verse of the quran prevented him from doing so. The verse in question was:
He wrote to say that he had perpetrated all these evils, so was there any taubah (repentance) for him? Allah then revealed the verse:
Rasulullah s.a.w had this sent to him. He wrote back saying that the verse stipulates the performance of good actions and he did not know whether he would be able to comply. Thereupon Allah revealed the verse:
And this verse was also sent to him. He again wrote back saying that this verse stipulates that Allah will only forgive those whom He wills. He expressed doubt about whether Allah would wish to forgive him or not. Thereafter, the verse was revealed declaring:
After this verse was sent to him, he arrived in Madinah and accepted islam. Subhanallah walhamdulillah wa lailaha ilallah, Allahu akbar.
wallahua'lam
segala puji hanya bagi Allah, Tuhan sekalian alam
"Those who do not subscribe to another diety with Allah; do not kill those souls that Allah has forbidden except with warrant; and do not commit adultery; whoever perpetrates these shall be a sinner"
[al-Furqan:68]
He wrote to say that he had perpetrated all these evils, so was there any taubah (repentance) for him? Allah then revealed the verse:
"Except for him who repents, believes and does good actions"
[al-Furqan:70]
Rasulullah s.a.w had this sent to him. He wrote back saying that the verse stipulates the performance of good actions and he did not know whether he would be able to comply. Thereupon Allah revealed the verse:
"Verily Allah does not forgive that partners are ascribed to Him, but forgives all besides this for whomsoever He wills"
[an-Nisa': 48]
And this verse was also sent to him. He again wrote back saying that this verse stipulates that Allah will only forgive those whom He wills. He expressed doubt about whether Allah would wish to forgive him or not. Thereafter, the verse was revealed declaring:
"Say O' My bondsmen who have transgressed againts their souls! Do not be despondent of Allah's mercy. Verily Allah forgives all sins. Indeed He is the most forgiving, the Most Merciful"
[az-Zumar:53]
After this verse was sent to him, he arrived in Madinah and accepted islam. Subhanallah walhamdulillah wa lailaha ilallah, Allahu akbar.
