This is only a selected portion about Qawaid Al Arba from the actual refutation. The Full comprehensive refutation will consist of five parts this is just one uncomplete part of the actual refutation.

 

Second Principle In Discussion:

That they say: We do not call upon and turn towards them except to seek nearness and intercession. So the proof against seeking this nearness (through others, like Awliyah) is the saying of the Most High: “And those who you take Awliyah besides Him (they say): ‘We worship them only that they may bring us near to Allah.” Verily, Allah will judge between them concerning that wherein they differ. Truly, Allah guides not him who is a liar, and a disbeliever.” [Ref: 39:3] And the proof of intercession (through Awliyah) is the saying of the Most High: And they worship besides Allah things that hurt them not, nor profit them, and they say: These are our intercessors with Allah.” [Ref: 10:18] And intercession is of two types; a) the prohibited intercession, B) and the affirmed intercession. The prohibited intercession is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do. And the proof is the saying of the Most High: “O you who believe! Spend from that which We have provided for you, before a Day comes when there will be no bargaining, nor friendship, nor intercession. And it is the disbelievers who are the wrong-doers.” [Ref: 2:254] And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions, after he gives permission, as He, Ta’aala, said: “Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His permission?” [Ref: 2:255]


Fused Definition Of Prohibited Intercession:

Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab define prohibited intercession as: The prohibited intercession is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do.” It seems the Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab deliberately fused the issue of intermediation (i.e. Tawassul) with intercession (i.e. Shaf’at). Here he was thinking of innovative principles of aid which is sought with means (i.e. ma-teht al asbab) from a creation and aid which is sought without means (i.e. ma fawq al asbab) from Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Here is what Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab was intending to write; The prohibited intercession intermediation is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do.” In reality this entire principle is fusion of Tawassul and Shaf’at, which makes it impossible to correct it. If one was to consider the above correction as valid and replace the word intercession with intermediation in the principle. Then the evidence which Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab employed to argue against intermediation will have no relevance to the subject. Evidence is about polytheists not having intercessor to intercede for them on the judgment day because they took idol-gods as intercessors with Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). In summary, on the basis the definition of prohibited intercession, the evidence employed does not support it therefore evidence used in context of definition is wrong and in the light of evidence the definition of prohibited intercession is clearly wrong.

Prohibited & Permitted Principles Analyzed:

Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab fused the issue of Shaf’at and Tawassul. Keeping the definition of prohibited type of intercession in mind; “The prohibited intercession is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do.” The definition of permitted type of intercession should have been: “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah concerning that which others are able to do and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions, after he gives permission …”[!] If one was to keep the definition of permitted type of intercession in mind; “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions, after he gives permission …” Then the prohibited type of intercession should be something like this: The prohibited intercession is that which is sought from other than Allah, and the intercessor is not honored with right of intercession and one requiring intercession  is one whose speech and actions Allah is displeased ” Note, the following part is omitted from the prohibited type of intercession; “… concerning that which only Allah is able to do.” Two two’s of a fool never add up to five just like lies and distortions of a heretic will never add to equal Islam. If one looks at it logically, each definition should be diametric opposite of the other[^] because Tawheed is opposite of Shirk. Note, according to Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s methodology permitted intercession in line with Tawheed and prohibited intercession is Shirk. These two are opposites of each other therefore permitted intercession and prohibited intercession should be opposite of each other.

Prohibited Intercession Principle Under Microscope:

Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab defined prohibited intercession with following words: “The prohibited Shaf’at is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do.” The crossed out part of quote has no real or any significance in the context of intercession. Attempts to reconcile the crossed out part with the principle; “… Concerning which only Allah is able to do.”  Means “… concerning which Allah is only able to grant.” Allah is only able to permit who can intercede therefore; “the prohibited Shaf’at is that which is sought from other than Allah which only Allah is able to grant.” Hence Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab meant; “the prohibited Shaf’at is that which is sought from other then Allah, who have not been granted the right of intercession.” This exercise establishes; crossed out part of principle has no direct connection with the subject of intercession. If one resorts to Taweel of Taweel of Taweel, only then one can harmonize the principle in the context of the evidence. The correct Wahhabi solution would be to replace the word Shaf’at with Tawassul, example; “The prohibited Tawassul is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do.” Alhasil, the crossed out words can be reconciled with the evidence by resorting to reinterpretation but lengths one has to go to achieve it are more then a stretch. Therefore the Taweel is improbable and the suggested correction is according to Wahhabi methodology and would be better option. The finale Taweel of the prohibited principle and the version with word Shaf’at replaced by Tawassul, both are with their own faults which have been demonstrated.

Wrong Definition Of Permitted Intercession:

Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab wrote: “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions …” He believes the intercession sought from intercessors is not permitted unless intercession is sought from Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala): “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah …” Obviously the prohibited intercession in light of this statement would be one which is sought from anyone other then Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Here is the explicit confirmation of derived: The prohibited intercession is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do.”

Permitted Intercession Is Prohibited Intercession:

If the prohibited type of intercession is analyzed in the light of permitted type of intercession then true Khariji nature of Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s methodology is established. The prohibited intercession is defined as The prohibited intercession is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do.” and permitted intercession is defined as; “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions, …” Therefore if one seeks intercession according to permitted type of intercession [i.e. Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi was’sallam] then he/she seeks prohibited intercession which is seeking intercession of other then Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). According to Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab seeking intercession of anyone other then Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) is prohibited and engaging in prohibited intercession in his methodology is Kufr/Shirk. Hence according to his methodology anyone who seeking intercession of Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) or anyone else will be and is Mushrik/Kafir.

Permitted Intercession Is Not Kufr Or Shirk:

Supporter of disbelief will argue; Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab established the belief of intercession of Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) with evidences and he believed in intercession of Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam). Hence he could not have termed his own belief Kufr/Shirk and argument does not represent his belief correctly. It is based on mutilation of principle mentioned by Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab and inferred via devious means. The response of believer would be; Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab deliberately fused the subject of Tawassul with Shaf’at to promote his dubious teachings. The undeniable fact is that in methodology of Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab if anyone engaged in prohibited intercession he/she commits major Shirk and no one but a illiterate fool will challenge this fact. Earlier according to Wahhabi methodology the application of definition of prohibited intercession was suggested; “The prohibited Tawassul is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do. In light of this Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab would believe; anyone who seeks aid via Tawassul from other then Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) seeks prohibited aid. A detailed understanding representation would be; anyone who seeks aid via Tawassul from the dead seeks prohibited Tawassul.[k] According to Wahhabism anyone seeking ‘prohibited Tawassul’ is guilty of major Shirk which is disbelief. So while arguing to establish the Kufr/Shirk of seeking ‘prohibited Tawassul’ he also did away with Shaf’at.

Reason Of Shirk Is Seeking Which Only Allah Is able To Do:

Apostate may argue, Shirk will not warrant until one seeks from other then Allah which only Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) is able to do. The Muslim should respond; the Muslims and Wahhabis are in agreement that creed precedes the action. Therefore according to Wahhabism mere belief that one can seek aid from Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) via; Tawassul of the dead/prohibited Tawassul, is be major Shirk. And this verdict is before one starts asking which only Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) is able to do. Now if one seeks what is termed as which is only Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) able to do [or in other words ma fawq al asbab aid] from the dead then according to Wahhabism one engages in worship commits Shirk in attributes. Alhasil, according to Wahhabism the definition of prohibited Tawassul does not depend on the crossed out part for one to be guilty of major Shirk. And just like this, according to Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s methodology Shaf’at of other than Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) does not depend on the crossed out part to be major Shirk. Mere belief that it is permissible to seek intercession from other then Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) is enough to be guilty of major Shirk. This is also supported by Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s following statement: And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for …” Giving Allah’s right to a creation is major Shirk and seeking intercession according to Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab, is right of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) because he defines affirmed intercession as which is sought from Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Now if the seeks intercession from other than Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) then according to Wahhabism one is giving right of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) to a creation, hence intercession ghair of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) would be major Shirk.

Permitted Intercession Under The Microscope:

On the judgment day when the heat of sun becomes unbearable the believing people will decide to seek intercession to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). They will go to various Prophets to seek their intercession but every Prophet will refuse to intercede and recommend another until people reach Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam). He will prostrate to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) and glorify Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) then he will be granted the right of intercession. Please bare previously mentioned information in mind to understand the following point. Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab defined permitted intercession as; “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions, …” According to Ahadith the people will seek intercession of Prophets [i.e. Prophets; Adam, Ibrahim, Musa, Isa, etc.] even when they have not been granted the right of intercession nor the people will be seeking intercession of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) nor the people will be those whom Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) is pleased with in fact they will be guilty of major sins: "My intercession is for the people who committed the major sins in my Ummah." [Ref: Tirmadhi, B11, H2435] "On the Day of Resurrection I will intercede and say, "O my Lord! Admit into Paradise (even) those who have faith equal to a mustard seed in their hearts." Such people will enter Paradise, and then I will say, 'O (Allah) admit into Paradise (even) those who have the least amount of faith in their hearts.” [Ref: Bukhari, B93, H600] In light of these facts the entire principle is incorrect. A principle should be inclusive of all situations and exclusive of none.

Defense Of Muhammad Bin Abdul Wahhab’s Permitted Intercession:

If apostate argues; principle should include what is established from Quran/Ahadith and Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab included which is established from both these two sources. We Muslims should respond; the principle contradicts the established facts of Ahadith. The intercession is sought before the permission is granted and there is no proof that intercession was sought by anyone after Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) was granted the right to intercede. Ahadith indicate that Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) will intercede on his own accord for which Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) will permit. Also the intercession is not being sought from Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) but from Prophets even before they have been permitted to intercede. Lastly the ones who will require intercession Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) will not be pleased with them they will be major sinners and people of hell who via intercession of Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) will be taken out of hell. Therefore nothing of Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s ‘permitted intercession’ is according to teaching of Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam). Even if an aspect of belief is established from Quran/Ahadith does not legitimize its inclusion to a principle. The confession is; there is no god but Allah Muhammad is Messenger of Allah. Would it be correct to insert the following in the beginning of confession; all praise is for Allah the Rabb of universe? Or would it be correct to add the following; “Say: O disbelievers.” in the beginning? One who is educated about deen will realize; not all which is established from Quran and Ahadith can be made part of principle.[\] But the principle should be inclusive of all essential elements and exclusive of all which is not fundamental to ones Islam. Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab inserted the non-essential beliefs in his principle and excluded the essential.

Principle Should Be Inclusive Of Essential And Exclusive Of Superfluous:

The error of Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab derived principle and his lack of knowledge about extracting principles needs to be demonstrated so readers understand the fault in his principles. Here is example of a defective principle; one who believes in intercessors and believes in Allah is Muslim. If this principle was considered valid then the polytheists of Makkah would be Muslims. They believed in [their idols as gods and believed these gods are] intercessors and believed in Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Alhasil the principle is not exclusive enough to exclude the disbelievers from entering Islam and not inclusive enough to only allow the Muslims into fold of Islam. Now coming to Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s permitted intercession as; “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions, …” The affirmed intercession’s first condition; “… which is sought from Allah”, will not be fulfilled by Muslims because they will seek intercession from other then Allah i.e. Prophets. The intercessors at that time will not be honored with right of intercession and the ones who need intercession will be sinners. The principle which I presented to demonstrate my point is too flexible and allows non-Muslims to enter Islam but on other hand Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s principle is excessively strict and excludes Muslims from Islam.

Interpreting Which Only Allah Is Able To Do:

Apostate may argue in context of the following hadith; “… and (last of all) the Almighty (Allah) will say, 'Now remains My Intercession. He will then hold a handful of the Fire from which He will take out some people whose bodies have been burnt, and they will be thrown into a river at the entrance of Paradise, called the water of life.” [Ref: Bukhari, B93, H532], this part of the first principle; “… concerning which only Allah is able to do.” and this part of second principle; “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah …” Refers to act of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) indicated in the hadith. In other words it refers to act of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) taking people out of hellfire. In this context the following two principles; The prohibited intercession is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do.”, would mean; the prohibited intercession is which is sought from other than Allah about taking people out of hellfire which only Allah is able to do. In the context of following principle; “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions, …”, would mean; the affirmed intercession is where entry into paradise is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored. The Muslims should respond; the people will seek intercession of Prophets they are ‘other than Allah’ and the intercession would be regarding taking people out of hellfire. Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) will say; “… and (last of all) the Almighty (Allah) will say, 'Now remains My Intercession.” After which Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) will take out fire from which people will be taken out and thrown into river of paradise. Putting it simply Allah’s (subhanahu wa ta’ala) intercession is taking people out of fire and entering them in paradise. Therefore intercession of Prophets should be and it is of taking people out of fire and entering to paradise. As proof note, Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) is reported to have said: “I shall go towards Hell and knock at its door, so it will be opened for me. I will enter it - and praise Allah with such praise that has never been done by anyone before me, nor shall it ever be done by anyone after me …” As a result of which he will remove everyone who sincerely professed the first part of Shahadah: “… and shall remove from it every such person who has with a sincere heart said ‘None is worthy of worship except Allah’. [Ref: Al-Mau'jam Al Awsat, H3857, Vol. 4, Page 503] Hence these two interpretations only add the following; Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) will take people out of hellfire, to the already established inconsistency – on the judgment day people seeking intercession from ‘other than Allah’ and those who were not granted the right of intercession. Alhasil, if the permitted intercession principle is understood as; the affirmed intercession is where entry into paradise is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored. Then the entry into paradise isn’t sought by the person in hell-fire but he is interceded for and the intercessor is honored with right of intercession. Therefore the interpretation of principle does not truly represent Islamic teaching. If the prohibited intercession is interpreted as; the prohibited intercession is which is sought from other than Allah about taking people out of hellfire which only Allah is able to do. Then people would be seeking intercession from ‘other than Allah’ to take people out of hellfire which according to the principle only Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) can do. Hence people would be engaging in prohibited intercession. Yet according to Islam this type of intercession which Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s principle demonizes is ayn Islam because Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) will take people out of hellfire. After the intercession of all Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) will intercede and take people out of hellfire. Therefore the principles are contradicting established evidence of Quran and Ahadith.

Affirmed Intercession Is Sought From Allah By The Intercessor:

A apostate is likely to argue; by the following statement; “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah …”, he meant; affirmed intercession is where intercessor is granted the right of intercession and intercessor seeks intercession from Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) for one with whom Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) is pleased with. Therefore the argument that people will be seeking intercession from ‘other than Allah’ is invalid. The insertion of words in brackets gives the principle mentioned meaning; “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah [by the intercessor] and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions, …” As Muslims we should say to apostate; Firstly, if your interpretation is granted nothing alters in reality because the people will still go to Prophets and seek their intercession. These people will go around seeking intercession until Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) is granted the right of intercession. Then Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) will seek intercession on behalf of Muslims. So in reality the people will be going to ‘other than Allah’ for intercession is still established and only after going to ‘other than Allah’ then one from these ‘other than Allah’s’ will be granted the right of intercession and then this ‘other than Allah’ will seek from Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Secondly, the people whom Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) will intercede for to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) will be in hellfire. And they would be in hellfire not because Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) was pleased with their actions or speech rather they are in hellfire because they had earned the displeasure of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Hence even if the first part of principle can be interpreted accordance with teaching of Islam the last part contradicts it. For this principle to be valid all details have to match the events at judgment day if any of the detail mentioned contradicts the events then the entire principle is nullified or at least until the faulty parts remain.

You Misunderstood Allah Being Pleased With:


…. More To Come ….

Correct Prohibited Type Of Intercession And Intercessors:

Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab defines the prohibited type of intercession as: The prohibited intercession is that which is sought from other than Allah concerning that which only Allah is able to do.” This is contrary to teaching of Islam and result of foolishness. The disbelievers took idol-gods as their intercessors with Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Taking these idol-gods as intercessors to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) and worshipping them is prohibited. The evidence of prohibition is: “And do not invoke besides Allah [idol-god intercessors] that which neither benefits you nor harms you, for if you did, then indeed you would be of the wrongdoers.'" [Ref: 10:106] Therefore the prohibited type of intercessor/intercession according to Quran is where an intercessor is taken as a god besides Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) and then believed to be a intercessor to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala).

Correct Permitted Type Of Intercession And Intercessor:

Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab’s incorrect definition of permitted intercession is; “And the affirmed intercession is that which is sought from Allah, and the intercessor is honored with the intercession and the one interceded for, is one whom Allah is please with his speech and actions, …” The correct permitted intercession is where the one who seeks intercession affirms belief of Tawheed and seeks intercession from one who is believed to a created servant of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). In detail, the one who seeks intercession, believes; Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) is One God, besides whom there is no God, and believes; Allah is One Allah besides whom there is no allah. Also believes Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) is without likeness to creation in attributes etc. The seeker believes about intercessor; intercessor is a creation of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala), a servant of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) and not human-god or idol-god.

Permitted Intercession Is Sought From Permitted Intercessors:

The Ahadith establish that on the judgment day the people will go to Prophets and ask them to intercede for them to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Eventually they will come to Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) and will ask him to intercede to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Then Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) will prostrate in worship of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) and he will be granted the right of intercession. Our beloved Prophet (sallallahu alayhi was’sallam) will be the first one to intercede. This establishes that affirmed intercession is which is sought from Prophets and the Prophets intercede on behalf of the sinners to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Also note the verse of Quran employed to establish the innovative definition of affirmed intercession, states; “To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and ...” [Ref: 2:255] The verse of Quran in light of other verses establishes; permitted intercession is where intercessor is granted the right to intercede to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) for whom Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) permits intercession. In the light of Ahadith and Quranic verses then the affirmed intercession would be; where intercession is sought from a intercessor who has been permitted to intercede and sinners seek intercession from a intercessor who intercedes on their behalf to Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). Such intercession seekers commit neither Kufr nor Shirk and anyone who charges those who seek intercession of creation of Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) of Kufr/Shirk has himself fallen into it.
