Some people say the prophet decided to do hajj 'umrah while coming back from Tabuk Ghazwah. Therefore, he set off for Mecca: When he arrived in his mother's shrine, he asked God for the permission to pray for her forgiveness, but his request was rejected and this verse was sent to him:”And the request of forgiveness of Abraham for his father was only because of a promise he had made to him. But when it became apparent to Abraham that his father was an enemy to Allah, he disassociated himself from him. Indeed was Abraham compassionate and patient.

Also, it is narrated from Ibn Mas'ud that once the prophet visited Muslim's tombs and we followed him. He sat before a tomb and shaded tears there and prayed. We cried along with him and prayed with his supplication. He asked the reason of our cry. We replied that we are inspired by your cry. He said: This tomb belongs to my mother Amina. God let me visit it, yet I'm not allowed to pray for her forgiveness, and this verse was sent to me:It is not for the Prophet and those who have believed to ask forgiveness for the polytheists, even if they were relatives, after it has become clear to them that they are companions of Hellfire.This is the reason of my cry.

In shi'a view, these hadiths are not authentic, because imami shi'a unanimously believes in faith of Abu Talib, Amina bt. Wahab, 'Abd Allah b. Abd al-Muttalib and the entire prophet's ancestor to Adam. This was pointed out in hadiths: "Jibra'il came to the prophet and said: Muhammad! Your God sends his regards to you and states: I've made hell's fire forbidden for the waist (sulb) which descended you, the uterus which was pregnant of you, and the one who brought you up. That waist belongs to 'Abd Allah b. Abd al-Muttalib, that uterus is Amina bt. Wahab's, and the one who brought the prophet up was Abu Talib, according to Ibn Fazil's hadith, and Fatima bt. Asad.", Imam Sadiq (a) stated.
