006.159 As for those who divide their religion and break up into sects, thou hast no part

in them in the least: their affair is with Allah: He will in the end tell them the truth of all

that they did.

Al-Qur'an, 006.159 (Al-Anaam [Cattle, Livestock])

023.051 O ye messengers! enjoy (all) things good and pure, and work righteousness: for Iam well-acquainted with (all) that ye do.

023.052 And verily this Brotherhood of yours is a single Brotherhood, and I am your

Lord and Cherisher: therefore fear Me (and no other).

023.053 But people have cut off their affair (of unity), between them, into sects: each

party rejoices in that which is with itself.

023.054 But leave them in their confused ignorance for a time.

Al-Qur'an, 023.051-054 (Al-Mumenoon [The Believers])

Volumn 004, Book 056, Hadith Number 803. (SAHIH AL BUKHARI)-----------------------------------------

Narated By Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman : The people used to ask Allah's Apostle about good,

but I used to ask him about evil for fear that it might overtake me. Once I said, "O Allah'sApostle! We were in ignorance and in evil and Allah has bestowed upon us the present

good; will there by any evil after this good?" He said, "Yes." I asked, "Will there be good

after that evil?" He said, "Yes, but it would be trained with Dakhan (i.e. Little evil)." Iasked, "What will its Dakhan be?" He said, "There will be some people who will lead

(people) according to principles other than my tradition. You will see their actions and

disapprove of them." I said, "Will there by any evil after that good?" He said, "Yes, therewill be some people who will invite others to the doors of Hell, and whoever accepts theirinvitation to it will be thrown in it (by them)." I said, "O Allah's Apostle! Describe those

people to us." He said, "They will belong to us and speak our language" I asked, "What

do you order me to do if such a thing should take place in my life?" He said, "Adhere tothe group of Muslims and their Chief." I asked, "If there is neither a group (of Muslims)

nor a chief (what shall I do)?" He said, "Keep away from all those different sects, evenif you had to bite (i.e. eat) the root of a tree, till you meet Allah while you are still in

that state."

Volumn 009, Book 088, Hadith Number 206.

-----------------------------------------

Narated By Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman : The people used to ask Allah's Apostle about the

good but I used to ask him about the evil lest I should be overtaken by them. So I said, "OAllah's Apostle! We were living in ignorance and in an (extremely) worst atmosphere,

then Allah brought to us this good (i.e., Islam); will there be any evil after this good?" He

said, "Yes." I said, 'Will there be any good after that evil?" He replied, "Yes, but it will betainted (not pure.)'' I asked, "What will be its taint?" He replied, "(There will be) some

people who will guide others not according to my tradition? You will approve of some of

their deeds and disapprove of some others." I asked, "Will there be any evil after thatgood?" He replied, "Yes, (there will be) some people calling at the gates of the (Hell)

Fire, and whoever will respond to their call, will be thrown by them into the (Hell) Fire."

I said, "O Allah s Apostle! Will you describe them to us?" He said, "They will be fromour own people and will speak our language." I said, "What do you order me to do if such

a state should take place in my life?" He said, "Stick to the group of Muslims and their

Imam (ruler)." I said, "If there is neither a group of Muslims nor an Imam (ruler)?" Hesaid, "Then turn away from all those sects even if you were to bite (eat) the roots of

a tree till death overtakes you while you are in that state."

007.037 Who is more unjust than one who invents a lie against Allah or rejects His

Signs? For such, their portion appointed must reach them from the Book (of decrees):

until, when our messengers (of death) arrive and take their souls, they say: "Where are

the things that ye used to invoke besides Allah?" They will reply, "They have left us inthe lurch," And they will bear witness against themselves, that they had rejected Allah.

Al-Qur'an, 007.037 (Al-Araf [The Heights])


4/25

016.020 Those whom they invoke besides Allah create nothing and are themselves

created.

016.021 (They are things) dead, lifeless: nor do they know when they will be raised up.

016.022 Your Allah is one Allah: as to those who believe not in the Hereafter, their hearts

refuse to know, and they are arrogant.

Al-Qur'an, 016.020-022 (An-Nahl [The Bee])

016.086 When those who gave partners to Allah will see their "partners", they will say:"Our Lord! these are our 'partners,' those whom we used to invoke besides Thee." But

they will throw back their word at them (and say): "Indeed ye are liars!"

016.087 That Day shall they (openly) show (their) submission to Allah; and all theirinventions shall leave them in the lurch.

Al-Qur'an, 016.086-087 (An-Nahl [The Bee])


5/25

022.062 That is because Allah - He is the Reality; and those besides Him whom theyinvoke,- they are but vain Falsehood: verily Allah is He, Most High, Most Great.

Al-Qur'an, 022.062 (Al-Hajj [The Pilgrimage])

031.030 That is because Allah is the (only) Reality, and because whateverelse they

invoke besides Him is Falsehood; and because Allah,- He is the Most High, Most Great.

Al-Qur'an, 031.030 (Luqman [Luqman])

035.013 He merges Night into Day, and he merges Day into Night, and he has subjectedthe sun and the moon (to his Law): each one runs its course for a term appointed. Such is


6/25

Allah your Lord: to Him belongs all Dominion. And those whom ye invoke besides Him

have not the least power.

035.014 If ye invoke them, they will not listen to your call, and if they were to listen, theycannot answer your (prayer). On the Day of Judgment they will reject your "Partnership".

and none, (O man!) can tell thee (the Truth) like the One Who is acquainted with all

things.

Al-Qur'an, 035.013-014 (Fatir [The Angels, Originator])

039.038 If indeed thou ask them who it is that created the heavens and the earth, they

would be sure to say, "Allah". Say: "See ye then? the things that ye invoke besidesAllah,- can they, if Allah wills some Penalty for me, remove His Penalty?- Or if He wills

some Grace for me, can they keep back his Grace?" Say: "Sufficient is Allah for me! InHim trust those who put their trust."

Al-Qur'an, 039.038 (Az-Zumar [The Troops, Throngs])


7/25

040.020 And Allah will judge with (justice and) Truth:but those whom (men) invoke

besides Him, will not (be in a position) to judge at all. Verily it is Allah (alone) Whohears and sees (all things).

Al-Qur'an, 040.020 (Al-Ghafir [The Forgiver [God]])

040.066 Say: "I have been forbidden to invoke those whom ye invoke besides Allah,-

seeing that the Clear Signs have come to me from my Lord; and I have been commanded

to bow (in Islam) to the Lord of the Worlds."

Al-Qur'an, 040.066 (Al-Ghafir [The Forgiver [God]])

041.047 To Him is referred the Knowledge of the Hour (of Judgment: He knows all): Nodate-fruit comes out of its sheath, nor does a female conceive (within her womb) nor

bring forth the Day that (Allah) will propound to them the (question), "Where are the

partners (ye attributed to Me?" They will say, "We do assure thee not one of us can bear

witness!"


8/25

041.048 The (deities) they used to invoke aforetime will leave them in the lurch, and they

will perceive that they have no way of escape.

Al-Qur'an, 041.047-048 (Fussilat [Explained in Detail])

043.086 And those whom they invoke besides Allah have no power of intercession;- onlyhe who bears witness to the Truth, and they know (him).

043.087 If thou ask them, who created them, they will certainly say, Allah: How then are

they deluded away (from the Truth)?

Al-Qur'an, 043.086-087 (Az-Zukhruf [Ornaments of Gold, Luxury])

046.004 Say: "Do ye see what it is ye invoke besides Allah? Show me what it is theyhave created on earth, or have they a share in the heavens bring me a book (revealed)

before this, or any remnant of knowledge (ye may have), if ye are telling the truth!


9/25

046.005 And who is more astray than one who invokes besides Allah, such as will not

answer him to the Day of Judgment, and who (in fact) are unconscious of their call (to

them)?

046.006 And when mankind are gathered together (at the Resurrection), they will be

hostile to them and reject their worship (altogether)!

Al-Qur'an, 046.004-006 (Al-Ahqaf [The Wind-curved Sandhills, The Dunes])

072.018 "And the places of worship are for Allah (alone): So invoke not any one along

with Allah;

072.019 "Yet when the Devotee of Allah stands forth to invoke Him, they just make

round him a dense crowd."

072.020 Say: "I do no more than invoke my Lord, and I join not with Him any (falsegod)."

Al-Qur'an, 072.018-020 (Al-Jinn [The Jinn])


10/25

023.117 If anyone invokes, besides Allah, Any other god, he has no authority therefor;and his reckoning will be only with his Lord! and verily the Unbelievers will fail to win

through!

Al-Qur'an, 023.117 (Al-Mumenoon [The Believers])

027.080 Truly thou canst not cause the dead to listen, nor canst thou cause the deaf to

hear the call, (especially) when they turn back in retreat.

Al-Qur'an, 027.080 (An-Naml [The Ant, The Ants])


11/25

035.022Nor are alike those that are living and those that are dead. Allah can make any

that He wills to hear; but thou canst not make those to hear who are (buried) ingraves.

Al-Qur'an, 035.022 (Fatir [The Angels, Originator])

003.018 Allh bears witness that L ilha illa Huwa (none has the right to be

worshipped but He), and the angels, and those having knowledge (also give this

witness); (He is always) maintaining His creation in Justice. L ilh illa Huwa (nonehas the right to be worshipped but He), the All-Mighty, the All-Wise

Al-Qur'an, 003.018 (Aal-E-Imran [The Family of Imran])

005.035 O ye who believe! Do your duty to Allah, seek the means of approach unto Him

(Waseelah) , and strive with might and main in his cause: that ye may prosper.

Al-Qur'an, 005.035 (Al-Maeda [The Table, The Table Spread])


12/25

Meaning ofal-Waseelah

Waseelah is nearness and the means by which one approaches

and draws near to something. In the Islamic context, Waseelah

refers to the means by which once can achieve nearness with

Allah.

Another meaning of al-Waseelah is a rank and standing with

Allah, as is the Hadeeth. The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said: When

you hear the caller to prayer then say the like of what he says,

then send blessings upon me Then ask Allah to grant me al-

Waseelah because it is a station in Paradise, which is

appropriate only for a single servant from the servants of Allah,

and I hope that it will be me.

(Saheeh Muslim vol.1, no.747.)

Allah says in the Quraan: O you who believe! Do your duty to

Allah and fear Him. Seek the means of approach (al-Waseelah)

to Him, and strive hard in His Cause as much as you can. So


13/25

that you may be successful. Al-Qur'an, 005.035

Al-Hafidh Ibn Katheer (rahimahullah) reported Ibn Abbas (radiallahu anhu)

saying in his commentary of this verse: The meaning of al-

Waseelah is to draw closer. He also reports from Qatadah: This

is that you draw near to Him by obedience to Him and through

actions that are pleasing to Him.And Ibn Katheer (rahimahullah)

said: And with regard to what those Imams (Ibn Abbas and

Qatadah) said there is no disagreement between the scholars of

Tafseer about it al-Waseelah is that by means of which one

reaches that which he desires.

(Tafseer Ibn Katheer.)

These two verses and their authentic Tafseers (commentaries)

clearly explain that Waseelah consists of seeking nearness to Allah

by means ofrighteousness in order to get closer to Allah.

This refutes any other explanation of Waseelah like that of those

who consider Waseelah to mean directly supplicating to the dead

saints. It refutes the erroneous belief held by many people of

seeking Tawassul through the status and honor of the Prophets


14/25

and saints.

Tawassul in the Quraan and the Sunnah

The correct means of Tawassul are three

Tawassul by means of Allahs Beautiful Names,

Tawassul by means of righteous deeds of the supplicant

and,

Tawassul by means of a supplication made by a righteous

Person (to ask any righteous living person to

make Duaa (supplication) for oneself)

017.056 Say: "Call on those - besides Him - whom ye fancy: they have neither the power

to remove your troubles from you nor to change them."

017.057 Those whom they call upon do desire (for themselves) means of access to their

Lord (Waseelah), - even those who are nearest: they hope for His Mercy and fear His

Wrath: for the Wrath of thy Lord is something to take heed of.


15/25

Al-Qur'an, 017.056-057 (Al-Isra [Isra, The Night Journey, Children of Israel ])

56. Say (O Muhammad): "Call unto those besides Him whom you pretend [to be gods

like angels, Ies (Jesus), 'Uzair (Ezra), etc.]. They have neither the power to remove theadversity from you nor even to shift it from you to another person."

57. Those whom they call upon [like 'Iesa (Jesus) son of Maryam (Mary), 'Uzair (Ezra),

angel, etc.] desire (for themselves) means of access to their Lord (Allh), as to which ofthem should be the nearest and they ['Iesa (Jesus), 'Uzair (Ezra), angels, etc.] hope for His

Mercy and fear His Torment. Verily, the Torment of your Lord is something to be afraid

of!

Al-Qur'an, 017.056-057 (Al-Isra [Isra, The Night Journey, Children of Israel ])

(Dr. Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din Al-Hilali, Ph.D. & Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan)

046.027 We destroyed aforetime populations round about you; and We have shown the

Signs in various ways, that they may turn (to Us).

046.028 Why then was no help forthcoming to them from those whom they worshipped

as gods, besides Allah, as a means of access (to Allah)? Nay, they left them in the lurch:

but that was their falsehood and their invention.


27. And indeed We have destroyed towns (populations) round about you, andWe have (repeatedly) shown (them) theAyt(proofs, evidences, verses,


16/25

lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) in various ways that they might return (to thetruth and believe in the Oneness of Allh - Islmic Monotheism).

28.Then why did those whom they had taken forliha (gods) besides Allh, as away of approach (to Allh) not help them? Nay, but they vanished completely

from them (when there came the torment). And that was their lie, and theirinventions which they had been inventing (before their destruction).


(Dr. Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din Al-Hilali, Ph.D. & Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan)

002.048 Then guard yourselves against a day when one soul shall not avail another nor

shall intercession be accepted for her, nor shall compensation be taken from her, nor shallanyone be helped (from outside).

Al-Qur'an, 002.048 (Al-Baqara [The Cow])


17/25

002.123 Then guard yourselves against a-Day when one soul shall not avail another, nor

shall compensation be accepted from hernor shall intercession profit her nor shall anyone

be helped (from outside).


002.254 O ye who believe! Spend out of (the bounties) We have provided for you, before

the Day comes when no bargaining (Will avail), nor friendship nor intercession. Thosewho reject Faith they are the wrong-doers.



18/25

019.087 Noneshall have the power of intercession, but such a one as has received

permission (or promise) from (Allah) Most Gracious.

Al-Qur'an, 019.087 (Maryam [Mary])

020.109 On that Day shall nointercession avail except for those for whom permission

has been granted by (Allah) Most Gracious and whose word is acceptable to Him.

Al-Qur'an, 020.109 (Ta-Ha [Mystic letters Ta-Ha])

021.028 He knows what is before them, and what is behind them, and they offer no

intercession except for those who are acceptable, and they stand in awe and reverence ofHis (Glory).


19/25

Al-Qur'an, 021.028 (Al-Anbiya [The Prophets])

034.023 "No intercession can avail in His Presence, except for those for whom He has

granted permission. So far (is this the case) that, when terror is removed from their hearts(at the Day of Judgment, then) will they say, 'what is it that your Lord commanded?' they

will say, 'That which is true and just; and He is the Most High Most Great'."

Al-Qur'an, 034.023 (Saba [ Saba , Sheba ])

036.023 "Shall I take (other) gods besides Him? If (Allah) Most Gracious should intend

some adversity for me, of no use whatever will be their intercession for me, nor can theydeliver me.

Al-Qur'an, 036.023 (Ya-Seen [Ya-Seen])


20/25

039.044 Say: "To Allah belongs exclusively (the right to grant) intercession: to Himbelongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth: In the End, it is to Him that ye shall

be brought back."

Al-Qur'an, 039.044 (Az-Zumar [The Troops, Throngs])

043.086 And those whom they invoke besides Allah have no power of intercession;- only

he who bears witness to the Truth, and they know (him).

Al-Qur'an, 043.086 (Az-Zukhruf [Ornaments of Gold, Luxury])


21/25

053.026 How many-so-ever be the angels in the heavens, their intercession will avail

nothing except after Allah has given leave for whom He pleases and that he is acceptableto Him.

Al-Qur'an, 053.026 (An-Najm [The Star])

002.255 Allah! There is no god but He,-the Living, the Self-subsisting, Eternal. Noslumber can seize Him nor sleep. His are all things in the heavens and on earth. Who is

there can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth? He knoweth what (appeareth

to His creatures as) before or after or behind them. Nor shall they compass aught of Hisknowledge except as He willeth. His Throne doth extend over the heavens and the earth,

and He feeleth no fatigue in guarding and preserving them for He is the Most High, the

Supreme (in glory).

22/25

032.004 It is Allah Who has created the heavens and the earth, and all between them, in

six Days, and is firmly established on the Throne (of Authority): ye have none, besidesHim, to protect or intercede (for you): will ye not then receive admonition?

Al-Qur'an, 032.004 (As-Sajda [The Prostration, Worship, Adoration])

SAHIH AL BUKHARI

Volumn 009, Book 093, Hadith Number 601.

-----------------------------------------

Narated By Ma'bad bin Hilal Al'Anzi : We, i.e., some people from Basra gathered and

went to Anas bin Malik, and we went in company with Thabit Al-Bunnani so that hemight ask him about the Hadith of Intercession on our behalf. Behold, Anas was in his

palace, and our arrival coincided with his Duha prayer. We asked permission to enter andhe admitted us while he was sitting on his bed. We said to Thabit, "Do not ask him aboutanything else first but the Hadith of Intercession." He said, "O Abu Hamza! There are

your brethren from Basra coming to ask you about the Hadith of Intercession." Anas then

said, "Muhammad talked to us saying, 'On the Day of Resurrection the people will surge

with each other like waves, and then they will come to Adam and say, 'Please intercedefor us with your Lord.' He will say, 'I am not fit for that but you'd better go to Abraham as

he is the Khalil of the Beneficent.' They will go to Abraham and he will say, 'I am not fit

for that, but you'd better go to Moses as he is the one to whom Allah spoke directly.' Sothey will go to Moses and he will say, 'I am not fit for that, but you'd better go to Jesus as

he is a soul created by Allah and His Word.' (Be: And it was) they will go to Jesus and he

will say, 'I am not fit for that, but you'd better go to Muhammad.'

They would come to me and I would say, 'I am for that.' Then I will ask for my Lord's

permission, and it will be given, and then He will inspire me to praise Him with such

praises as I do not know now. So I will praise Him with those praises and will fall down,

prostrate before Him. Then it will be said, 'O Muhammad, raise your head and speak, for


23/25

you will be listened to; and ask, for your will be granted (your request); and intercede, for

your intercession will be accepted.' I will say, 'O Lord, my followers! My followers!' And

then it will be said, 'Go and take out of Hell (Fire) all those who have faith in their hearts,equal to the weight of a barley grain.' I will go and do so and return to praise Him with

the same praises, and fall down (prostrate) before Him. Then it will be said, 'O

Muhammad, raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to, and ask, for you willbe granted (your request); and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted.' I will

say, 'O Lord, my followers! My followers!' It will be said, 'Go and take out of it all those

who have faith in their hearts equal to the weight of a small ant or a mustard seed.' I willgo and do so and return to praise Him with the same praises, and fall down in prostration

before Him. It will be said, 'O, Muhammad, raise your head and speak, for you will be

listened to, and ask, for you will be granted (your request); and intercede, for your

intercession will be accepted.' I will say, 'O Lord, my followers!' Then He will say, 'Go

and take out (all those) in whose hearts there is faith even to the lightest, lightest

mustard seed. (Take them) out of the Fire.' I will go and do so."'

When we left Anas, I said to some of my companions, "Let's pass by Al-Hasan who ishiding himself in the house of Abi Khalifa and request him to tell us what Anas bin Malik

has told us." So we went to him and we greeted him and he admitted us. We said to him,

"O Abu Said! We came to you from your brother Anas Bin Malik and he related to us aHadith about the intercession the like of which I have never heard." He said, "What is

that?" Then we told him of the Hadith and said, "He stopped at this point (of the

Hadith)." He said, "What then?" We said, "He did not add anything to that." He said,

Anas related the Hadith to me twenty years ago when he was a young fellow. I don'tknow whether he forgot or if he did not like to let you depend on what he might have

said." We said, "O Abu Said ! Let us know that." He smiled and said, "Man was createdhasty. I did not mention that, but that I wanted to inform you of it.

Anas told me the same as he told you and said that the Prophet added, 'I then return for a

fourth time and praise Him similarly and prostrate before Him me the same as he 'O

Muhammad, raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to; and ask, for you willbe granted (your request): and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted.' I will

say, 'O Lord, allow me to intercede for whoever said, 'None has the right to be

worshiped except Allah.' Then Allah will say, 'By my Power, and my Majesty, andby My Supremacy, and by My Greatness, I will take out of Hell (Fire) whoever said:

'None has the right to be worshipped except Allah.'"

004.048 Allah forgiveth not that partners should be set up with Him;

but He forgiveth anything else, to whom He pleaseth; to set up partnerswith Allah is to devise a sin Most heinous indeed.

Al-Qur'an, 004.048 (An-Nisa)

064.013 Allah! There is no god but He: and on Allah, therefore, let the

Believers put their trust.

Al-Qur'an, 064.013 (At-Taghabun [Mutual Disillusion, Haggling])

002.256 There is no compulsion in religion. Verily, the Right Path hasbecome distinct from the wrong path. Whoever disbelieves in Tght

(false deities)and believes in Allh, then he has grasped the most


25/25

trustworthy handhold that will never break. And Allh is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
