TAUHEED AND SHIRK 30
THE HYPOCRITES DID NOT WANT THE PROPHETS OR THE PIOUS TO PRAY FOR THEM
(63/5) hypocrites did not want Rasulullah (saws) to pray for them. the Prophet Muhammad (saws) continued praying for them, until Allah informed him that supplicating on their behalf was not going to benefit them as in their hearts they did not believe.
(63/6,9/80) the supplication of the Prophet was beneficial and secondly, only those who have true faith in Allah and His Messenger will be able to benefit from it.
EVEN THE PHARAOH (FIRAWN) KNEW THAT THE SUPPLICATION (DUA) OF THE PROPHETS AND PIOUS ARE ACCEPTED
(43/46-50) firstly that the pharaoh, the biggest disbeliever and one of the harshest oppressors of all time even knew that the supplication of a Prophet would quickly be accepted by Allah due to the pact between Allah and His Prophet. It was for this reason that the pharaoh asked Sayyidina Musa (as) to ask his Lord to remove the punishment that the pahorah and his people were receiving.
Once Sayyidina Musa (as) had supplicated on behalf of the pharaoh and his people and eased them with regards to their torment, they broke their word and denied both Allah and Sayydina Musa (as). even though Allah was fully aware that the pharaoh and his people were going to break their promise, Allah still relived them of the flood by accepting the supplication (dua) of his beloved Prophet, Sayyidina Musa (as), showing them that He does accept the supplication of His Prophets and pious.
If you say, this type of asking from the Prophets to pray for others was specific to them and if we were to ask people to pray for others today is shirk, I would say: shirk is shirk. It is unchanged. Allah cannot allow something to occur with His Prophets that we would deem as being shirk if we do the same today.
Did it take the hypocrites and the pharaoh to convince you that the Prophets can supplicate on behalf of others! AllahuAkbar! It is true that there are no more Prophets after Rasulullah (saws), however, there are still those true followers of Rasulullah (saws) who exist and we can ask them to supplicate on our behalf.
then why has Allah Almighty praised those who have come into the faith for supplicating on behalf of others
(59/10) Allah has praised the pious for supplicating on behalf of others.
(14/40-41) the pious supplicate on behalf of others. This means that this is permissible. So, if the pious can supplicate on our behalf then obviously there is nothing wrong in asking them to do so.do you not recite: in your salat (prayers) five times a day!(dua)
When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
Make sure you forward this to others .
