Mushrikeen Giving Refuge to Muslims

 


“‘Abi Jafar [al-Baqir] said: 


If a believer were in the dominion of an oppressor, and he was targetted - causing him to run to the land of Shirk


Wherein, he came across a man from the people of Shirk who gives refuge to him [i.e, to the believer], takes care of him, and shows him compassion. Thus, when he [i.e, the man from the people of Shirk] dies, Allah reveals to him: 


By my glory and majesty, if there were a place for you in my heaven - I would have made you inhabit it. However, it was forbidden on whomever does shirk of me.


However, O Fire [of Hell] - take care of him and do not harm him.


And [thus], he (the mushrik) is given his provision both ends of the Day.’


I (narrated) asked: [Provision] coming from heaven? 


He [the Imam] said: From wherever Allah wills”
