You can know what is right, see the proof clearly, and still choose not to follow it. Abu Talib heard the call to Islam directly from the Prophet ﷺ. He understood the message and knew the language, yet died without accepting Islam.
His story reveals a distinction we cannot afford to overlook: being shown the right path is not the same as being granted the success to follow it.
Allah is Al-Hadi, The Guide. His guidance reaches every living creature. He shows people the truth through revelation and His messengers. But it is Allah alone who grants the Tawfeeq to accept that truth, act upon it, and remain steadfast.
In Episode 12 of Allah's Names and Attributes, Sheikh Muhammad Tim Humble explains the different forms of Allah's guidance, the consequences of turning away from the truth, and why even practising Muslims must continue asking Allah to guide them.
What are we really asking for every time we recite, "Guide us to the straight path"?
