completed my duty as a brother towards you and presented you with the verses, it is now up to you if you chose to believe them. I am just thankful that through my Shaykh, Shaykh Yasin Allah has lifted the veil from in front of my eyes and I now know the true guidance and light of the Qur’an. Qadhi: AstaghfirAllah! How dare you accuse me of invoking the Prophet’s and pious and in rivalry against Allah! I have full faith that Allah alone should be worshipped, He Most High is the Creator of the universe and all that is in it. He is the One who created life and brings death, not even the leaf of a tree can move without Allah Almighty’s Will, Only Allah is entitle to be worshipped, supplication should be made to Him alone! THE POLYTHEISTS APPROACH OF SEEKING ASSISTANCE FROM OTHER THAN ALLAH Sadly the Khawarij do not understand the meaning of seeking assistance from the Prophet’s and the pious. One must acknowledge the difference between the manner in which polytheists sought assistance from their idols, and the manner in which Muslims seek assistance from the Prophet’s and the pious. The polytheists of Makkah would turn to their idols for help, believing that they were the source that would bring benefit, comfort and ease. For example, take the battle of Uhud, where the polytheists asked their idols to help them defeat the Muslims. They told the Muslims that they have their god ‘uzza’ and the Muslims have nothing. ( I seek shelter in Allah!). As Allah Azawajul informs us in the Qur’an: 019.081 And they have chosen (other) gods beside Allah that they may be a power for them. This verse discusses the way in which the polytheists believed that if Allah did not help them or give them power, then their idols would instead. (I seek shelter in Allah!) 036.022 For what cause should I not serve Him Who hath created me, and unto Whom ye will be brought back ? 036.023 Shall I take (other) gods in place of Him when, if the Benefi cent should wish me any harm, their intercession will avail me naught, nor can they save ? 036.024 Then truly I should be in error manifest. 116
These verses further inform us that they believed that if Allah punished them their idols would save them, although Allah Azawajul informs them that ‘nor can they [the idols] save [them].’ 036.074 And they have taken (other) gods beside Allah, in order that they may be helped. 036.075 It is not in their power to help them; but they (the worshippers) are unto them a host in arms. This verse also informs us of how they would worship the idols thinking that they would be able to help them. However, Allah Most Glorious informs us the idols have no power to help themselves or the polytheists. 012.040 Those whom ye worship beside Him are but names which ye have named, ye and your fathers. Allah hath revealed no sanction for them. The decision rests with Allah only, Who hath commanded you that ye worship none save Him. This is the right religion, but most men know not. In this verse Allah informs us of the low status of the idols. He degrades them and tells us He is the only One to be worshipped and His religion is the Right religion. THE MUSLIM MEANING OF ASKING HELP FROM OTHER THAN ALLAH All that occurs in the universe, from natural disasters, to the movement of a leaf is by the Will and Power of Allah alone. Everything is under His control. If Allah willed, He could make anything possible without the means of anyone or anything. However, we tend to see that when Allah does something He usually does it through the means of something. For example, Allah is the Creator of all, including humans although humans are created through the means of their parents, just as animals are. Also, quenching one’s thirst is achieved through the means of water. Another example would be receiving guidance and gaining knowledge through the means of Prophet’s, scholars and pious people. A sick person is cured by Allah, however in most cases this is achieved through the diagnosis of a doctor and through the means of medicine. Even death occurs through the means of the Angel Izraeel. (Angel of death) This list is only a handful of examples but while we know that everything is granted by Allah Most Gracious, they are administered through the means of something. 117
