أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَلِيلِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ ‏:‏ سَمِعْتُ رَجُلاً، يَسْتَغْفِرُ لأَبَوَيْهِ وَهُمَا مُشْرِكَانِ فَقُلْتُ ‏:‏ أَتَسْتَغْفِرُ لَهُمَا وَهُمَا مُشْرِكَانِ فَقَالَ أَوَلَمْ يَسْتَغْفِرْ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لأَبِيهِ . فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَنَزَلَتْ ‏{‏ وَمَا كَانَ اسْتِغْفَارُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لأَبِيهِ إِلاَّ عَنْ مَوْعِدَةٍ وَعَدَهَا إِيَّاهُ ‏}‏ .

Narrator: 'Ali

English translation
It was narrated that 'Ali said: "I heard a man praying for forgiveness for his parents who were idolaters, and I said: 'Are you praying for forgiveness for them even though they are idolators?" He said: 'Didn't Ibrahim pray for forgiveness for his father?' I went to the Prophet and told him about that, then the following revealed: And Ibrahim's (Abraham) invoking (of Allah) for his father's forgiveness was only because of a promise he (Ibrahim) had made to him (his father)." (Daif)
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। ইসহাক ইবনু মানসুর (রহঃ) ... আলী (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি এক ব্যক্তিকে শুনলাম যে, সে তার পিতা মাতার জন্য মাগফিরাত চাচ্ছে অথচ তারা মুশরিক। তখন আমি তাকে বললাম, তুমি তাদের জন্য মাগফিরাত চাচ্ছ অথচ তারা মুশরিক। তখন সে বললো, ইবরাহীম (আঃ) কি স্বীয় পিতার জন্য মাগফিরাত চাননি? এরপর আমি নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এর কাছে আসলাম এবং ঘটনা তার কাছে উল্লেখ করলাম। তখন এ আয়াত অবর্তীর্ণ হলঃ وَمَا كَانَ اسْتِغْفَارُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لأَبِيهِ إِلاَّ عَنْ مَوْعِدَةٍ وَعَدَهَا إِيَّاهُ
