Asking help- Each appeal for help is not an act of worship

 ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Abbās that Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ said: Undoubtedly, there are some of Allāh’s angels on the earth who are in addition to the guardian angels. They note down each leaf that falls down from a tree. If anyone of you is being tortured in the jungle, you should cry, ‘O servants of Allāh, help me.’ Haythamī in Majma‘-uz-zawā’id (10:132)

the Prophet ﷺ has urged the believers to help one another:Anyone who is busy in fulfilling the need of his brother, Allāh Himself fulfils his need. Bukhārī bk. of mazālim (oppressions) ch.4 (2:863#2310),

And Allāh is busy in helping His creature as long as he is busy helping his brother. Tirmidhī bk.of hudūd, ch.3 (4:34#1425)

If anyone of you goes out with his brother to help him, it is better than the two months’ seclusion in my mosque. “Tabarānī in al-Mu‘jam-ul-awsat (8:160#7322)

Allāh has created a class of creatures for the fulfilment of people’s needs so that people turn to them for (the fulfilment of) their needs. These creatures are immune to Allāh’s punishment. Haythamī narrated it in Majma‘-uz-zawā’id (8:192);

Once caliph abu jafar Mansur visited medina and he asked imam malik while supplicating should i turn my face to the prayer niche(qibla) or should i turn my face to the holy prophet ﷺ ?imam malik replied o caliph why do you turn your face away from the holy prophet ﷺ when he is the means for you and for your ancestor adam(as) on the day of judgement rather you should(pray and supplicate by)turning towards the prophet ﷺ and seek his intercession so that he intercedes for you before Allah on the day of judgement …Allah has declared: And, (O Beloved,) if they, having wronged their souls, had come to you imploring the forgiveness of Allah, and the Messenger (blessings and peace be upon him) had also asked forgiveness for them, then (owing to this mediation and intercession) they would certainly have found Allah Most Relenting, Ever-Merciful.4/64 (Qadi iyad in ash shifa (2:596),subki in shifa us siqam)

‘Abdullāh bin Mas‘ūd has narrated that the Prophetﷺ said:          When you lose your means of transport in a jungle, you should call: ‘O creatures of Allāh! Help me, recover my transport! O creatures of Allāh! Help me, recover my transport!’ There are many of Allāh’s creatures on this earth. They will help you recover it. Tabarānī narrated it in al-Mu‘jam-ul-kabīr (10:217#10518)

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)
