It is reported on the authority of 'Abbas b. Abd al-Muttalib that he said:
Messenger of Allah, have you benefited Abu Talib in any way for he defended you and was fervent in your defence? The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Yes; he would be in the most shallow part of the Fire: and but for me he would have been in the lowest part of Hell.
