I forget where that is in the Qur'an?
Or was it in the Qur'an?
I've been trying to find where that happened but can't reecall.
I'm not sure if the Qur'an explicitly talks about this prohibition in response to Muhammad's action, but there is a passage about the same thing being told to Abraham:
"And Abraham prayed for his father's forgiveness only because of a promise he had made to him. But when it became clear to him that he was an enemy to Allah, he dissociated himself from him: for Abraham was most tender-hearted, forbearing." (9:114)
“We are certainly allowed to make du`a’ for our non-Muslim relatives and friends who are living; we can pray for them for their health, wellbeing and guidance. But the most important prayer that we can do for them is to pray for their guidance to the path of Islam; we must do so on a continuous basis. Our prayer for guidance for them should be complemented by our earnest efforts to persuade them to embrace Islam through wisdom and beautiful preaching. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “If a single person were to be guided to the right way through your efforts that would be better for you than owning the whole world as a treasure!”
Allah says, “It is not fitting for the Prophet and the believers to pray for the forgiveness of the polytheists, even though they may be near kin (to them) after it has become clear them that they are the people of Hell.” (At-Tawbah: 113)
Well polytheists means people who believe in more than one god like Hindus, Greek Gods etc.
So you can pray for anyone who belongs to Abrahamic religion.
