Abu baker (Ra) calling
Prophet (Saw) as “YA”After his death from Sahih bukhari
Bukhari Vol 2 book 23 Hadith 333-Narrated ‘Aisha :Abu Bakr came riding his
horse from his dwelling place in As-Sunh. He got down from it, entered the
Mosque and did not speak with anybody till he came to me and went direct to the Prophet, who was covered
with a marked blanket. Abu Bakr uncovered his face. He knelt down and kissed
him and then started weeping and said, “My father and my mother be
sacrificed for you, O Allah’s Prophet!(Ya Rasool Allah) Allah will not combine
two deaths on you. You have died the death which was written for you.”

Abu Baker (ra) used YA RASOOL ALLAH after Prophet’s ﷺ death,Why did Abu
baker (RadhiAllah) used the word Ya Rasool Allah ﷺ after His ﷺ death if
it was Haram or a forbidden act
A Sahabi (radhitAllah
anho) and 2nd Caliph Hadrat Umar (radhitAllah anho) benefiting from
intercession of Prophet ﷺ, During the reign of Hazrat
Umar (رضى الله عنه) a draught badly
threatened the ummah. A person went to
Prophet ﷺ’s grave and sought for help saying YA RAsool Allah (O Prophet
). The Prophet ﷺ came into
his dream, gave him
“basharat” (glad tiding) of rain, and also asked him to warn Hazrat
Umar (رضى الله
عنه) about the coming threats. Hazrat
Umar (رضى الله
عنه), when listened his dream wept and assured that he would remain
careful as much as possible. Ibn-e-Abi Sahiba in Al-Musanaf (Vol.6,Page356,Hadith

Here are those who called hadith sound
-Ibn Taymiyyah has endorsed its authenticity in his book
Iqtidā’-us-sirāt-il-mustaqīm mukhālifat ashāb-il-jahīm (p.373).Ibn Kathīr has
confirmed the soundness of its transmission in al-Bidāyah wan-nihāyah (5:167).
Ibn Abū Khaythamah narrated it with the same chain of transmission as quoted by
Ibn Hajar ‘Asqalānī in al-Isābah fī tamyīz-is-sahābah (3:484), Imam Ibn e Hajar
(rah) writes in Fath-ul-bārī (2:495-6): “Ibn Abū Shaybah transmitted it with a
sound chain of transmission and Sayf bin ‘Umar Tamīmī has recorded it in
al-Futūh-ul-kabīr that the dreamer was a Companion known as Bilāl bin Hārith
Muzanī.” Qastallānī has remarked in al-Mawāhib-ul-laduniyyah (4:276) that Ibn
Abū Shaybah has narrated it with a sound chain of transmission Zurqānī has supported Qastallānī in his
Commentary (11:150-1) and called its chain sound
Using “YA”
from Far Away
Sahih hadith quoted by Imam bukhari [rah] says Abu Nu’aym related
to us who said that Sufyan related to us from Abu Ishaq from Abdar Rahman ibn
Sa’d, who said:Ibn Umar had numbness in
his leg, whereupon a man said to him:“Remember the most beloved of people to
you”, so he said: “Ya Muhammad”[Imam al-Bukhari in Adab al-Mufrad
(Hadith No. 964) in the chapter of What should be Done if Leg becomes Numb]The
hadith has All Thiqa narrators of Bukhari and Muslim
Quran says – (O beloved!) And if they
had come to you, when they had wronged their souls, and asked forgiveness of Allah,
and the Messenger also had asked forgiveness for them, they (on the basis of
this means and intercession) would have surely found Allah the Granter of
repentance, extremely Merciful. (Quran 4/64
Tafsir Ibn e Khatir for 4:64 – Allah is exhorting the sinners and
evildoers that when they commit sins and errors they should call on the Messenger
of Allah ﷺ and ask
forgiveness from Allah. They should also request
the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to pray for them. When they do so, Allah will turn to them and forgive them and He
will show mercy to them. That is why He used the words la-wajadullāha
tawwāban-rahīmā (they (on the basis of this means and intercession) would have
surely found Allah the Granter of repentance, extremely Merciful).
Many have stated this tradition. One of them is Abū Mansūr Sabbāgh who writes
in his book al-Hikāyāt-ul-mashhūrah that, according to ‘Utbī, once he was
sitting beside the Prophet’s grave when a bedouin came and he said, “Peace be
on you, O Allah’s Messenger. I have heard that Allah says: ‘(O beloved!) And if they had come to you,
when they had wronged their souls, and asked forgiveness of Allah, and the
Messenger also had asked forgiveness for them, they (on the basis of this means
and intercession) would have surely found Allah the Granter of repentance,
extremely Merciful.’ I have come to you, asking forgiveness for my sins and I
make you as my intermediary before my Lord and I have come to you for this
purpose.” Then he recited these
verses: “O(YA), the most exalted among
the buried people who improved the worth of the plains and the hillocks! May I
sacrifice my life for this grave which is made radiant by you, (the Prophet,)
the one who is (an embodiment) of mercy and forgiveness.” Then the
bedouin went away and I fell asleep. In my dream I saw the Holy Prophet ﷺ, He said to me: O ‘Utbī,
the bedouin is right, go and give him the good news that Allah has forgiven his
sins(Tafsir ibn e khatir for 4:64 )
