Question

Does this constitute Kufr. One of my relatives told me that Allah gives everyone chance till his last breath to ask forgiveness from him. I understood him incorrectly as 'Allah gives someone chance even after he dies to ask forgiveness' Although knowing this is wrong, I said 'Yes' to the statement just to please him. Now although technically I said 'Yes' to a right thing, in my mind I was saying Yes to a wrong statement.

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

The statement in reference does not constitute Kufr.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
