It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty continues to accept His servant’s repentance until the veil occurs. I asked,“What is meant by the veil occurring?”The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: When a person’s soul departs while he is in a state of polytheism.
