2. Hazrat Abdullah ibn Abbas (radi Allahutala anhu) states that when the Jews wished to gain victory over
their enemies they would make this Du’a: “O Allah! We ask to you through the mediation of the unlettered
Prophet that You may grant us victory over those Polytheists.”
(Tafseer Durre Manthur)
3. Hazrat Imam ibn Jureer Tibri (radi Allahutala anhu) writes that the Jews
also made this Du’a: “O Allah!
Send down that a Prophet who will make justice between us and the people and
those people used to gain victory and help against the others through his
mediation.” (Tafseer ibn Jareer)
4. Hadrat Uthman bin Haniff (radi Allahutala anhu) says that a blind man came to the court of the Holy
Prophet ﷺ and said,
“O Messenger of Allah! Pray for me that I may regain my sight.” The
Prophet ﷺ said, “Go and perform ablution and read two
Raka’ats of Nafil Salaah and read this Du’a: ‘O Allah! Verily I ask of You and
towards You I use the mediation of Nabi-e-Rahmat, Muhammad Mustapha ﷺ O
Muhammad! Verily I turn through your Wasila to Your Creator for my needs so
that my needs may be fulfilled. O Allah, accept the intercession of Muhammad ﷺ for
me”. (Ibn Maja; Shifa Shareef)
5. With regards to this Hadith Shareef about the blind man being asked to make Du’a with
the Wasila of the Holy Prophet ﷺ, Hazrat Allama Abdul Ghani Delhwi (radi Allahutala anhu) says, “It proves the permissibility of
mediation and that of the Prophet’s ﷺ
intercession. This command is that during his life, but also after his
demise.” (Misbahus Zijaja Bar Hashia ibn Maja) Thus, one is allowed to
seek the Wasila of the Holy Prophet (S.A.W.) even after his demise.
6. When Hazrat Adam (alaihis salaam)
ate from the forbidden tree, he made Du’a to Allah Ta’ala through the
mediation of the Holy Prophet
ﷺ in this way: “O Allah!
Forgive me with the Wasila of Muhammad Mustapha ﷺ ” (Tibraani;
Muwahibul Ladaniyah)
7. The Ambiya are Wasilas (mediators)
for their Ummah in every form and the Wasila of the Ambiya is the Holy Prophet
Muhammad ﷺ Hence, the
Holy Prophet ﷺ is the
Wasila of all mediations, even the Wasila for Hadrat Adam (alaihis salaam).
(Tafseer Saadi)
8. Hazrat Aisha Siddiqa (radi Allahu anha) says that the Holy Prophet (S.A.W.)
said, “O Allah! Grant Islam
respect through Umar ibn Khatab.” (Ibn Majah)
9. The Holy Prophet ﷺ said: “Abdaals will be in Syria. They are
forty men. When one of them passes away, then Allah Ta’ala puts another in his
place. Through their blessings it rains. Through them victory is gained over
enemies and through their blessings punishment is moved away from the people of
Syria.” (Mishkaat; Ash’atul Lam’aat)
10. Hazrat Umar Farouk (radi Allahutala anhu) sent troops towards Kasra and he
made Hazrat Sa’ad bin Ka’ab Waqqas (radi Allahutala anhu) the commander of the
troop. Hazrat Khalid bin Walid (radi Allahutala anhu) was the chief commanding
officer. When they came close to the Dajla, there were no ships or boats to
cross the river. Hazrat Khalid bin Walid (radi Allahutala anhu) and Hadrat
Sa’ad bin Ka’ab (radi Allahutala anhu) went forward and spoke to the river,
saying: “O River! You are flowing through the Command of Almighty Allah.
Thus, we are giving you the Wasila of
the justice of Rasool ﷺ and the Khalifa of Rasool ﷺ, Hazrat
Umar Farouk (radi Allahutala anhu). Do not become a stoppage between us and
our crossing.” Suddenly, the river gave way. Then the troops crossed the
river with their horses and camels. They reached the other side of the land in
such a manner that their (horses and camels) hooves did not even get wet. (Ar
Riyaadhun Nadhra)
11. In the above narrations one sees that the Sahaba-Ikraam used various forms of mediation as solutions to their
problems.
12. Hazrat Abdul Haq Muhadith Delhwi (radi Allahutala anhu) writes the
following: “According to the Ijma
of the Ulema, to use the Wasila of the Holy Prophet ﷺ to gain
assistance both with verbally or physically is said to be confirmed to be
desirable.” (Jazbul Quloob
The Knowers of Allah said, “The
Reward of this Life (means) the Association with the awliya. And the Reward of
the Hereafter is the Association with Al-Haqq. Allah taala says, “Assist one another in Righteousness and
Taqwa. Don’t assist one another in Sin and Enmity.” [5/2] Some of
the Knowers of Allah said, “To
assist one another in Righteousness and Taqwa (means) Obedience to the Grand
Ones amongst the Masters and the Shaykhs. And do not withhold your portions from
them in assistance. And they did not assist one another in Sin, (means) being
busy with this life. And with Enmity, (means) agreeing with the Desires and the
Purposes of the Ego.”
The Qur’an al-kareem
divides those that are favoured by Allah into 4 groups:
(a) The Prophets – This cycle has ended after the appearance
of Sayyadina RasoolAllah (S.A.W.).
(b) The Siddeeq (The Truthful) – This rank is next after the Prophets. The greatest Siddeeq was Hazrat Abu Bakr
(Radi Allahu ta’ala Anhu). The meaning of Siddeeq is Truth. Such a person
recognizes truth in all its manifestations.
(c) The Shuhada (Martyrs) – One need not actually be killed in the battlefield
to prove one’s self as shaheed (martyr).
One in this stage feels satisfied by sacrificing everything that he has for the
Creator.
(d) The Salih (Pious) – This is the lower grade that one can attain by devotional activities. In this stage,one cleanses himself from all spiritual
impurities such as jealousy, hatred, hypocrisy etc.
