deceased pious can hear in <strong>the</strong> graves and can answer. Listen to <strong>the</strong><br />

following verses:<br />

1. 019.087 They will have no power <strong>of</strong> intercession, save him who hath<br />

made a covenant with his Lord.<br />

This informs us that <strong>the</strong> idols will have no power <strong>of</strong> intercession though<br />

those who have a covenant with <strong>the</strong>ir Lord (<strong>the</strong> pious) will have <strong>the</strong> power to<br />

intercede.<br />

2. 043.067 Friends on that day will be foes one to ano<strong>the</strong>r, save those<br />

who kept <strong>the</strong>ir duty (to Allah).<br />

This second verse proves that <strong>the</strong> pious will not be enemies <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir friends<br />

and followers<br />

3. 033.056 Lo! Allah and His angels shower blessings on <strong>the</strong> Prophet. O<br />

ye who believe! Ask blessings on him and salute him with a worthy<br />

salutation.<br />

This verse proves that when we send salutations upon our blessed Prophet<br />

Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) <strong>the</strong> salutations reach<br />

him. If this is not true, <strong>the</strong>n why does <strong>the</strong> Muslim world send salutations<br />

upon him during prayer ( salat) every day? Also, millions <strong>of</strong> people send<br />

salutations <strong>of</strong> peace (salam) to Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant<br />

him peace) Sayyidina Abu Bakr and Sayyidina Umar ( may Allah be well<br />

pleased with <strong>the</strong>m both) when <strong>the</strong>y go to make Umrah or Hajj. This practice<br />

has been continuing since <strong>the</strong>y were buried <strong>the</strong>re and still continues today. If<br />

<strong>the</strong>y cannot hear, does this mean this practice is against <strong>the</strong> Qur’an? The<br />

idols however will not even be aware that <strong>the</strong>y were worshipped until <strong>the</strong><br />

Day <strong>of</strong> Judgment but <strong>the</strong> pious are aware and can hear when people send<br />

salutations upon <strong>the</strong>m.<br />

4. 036.024 Then truly I should be in error manifest.<br />

036.025 Lo! I have believed in your Lord, so hear me!<br />

036.026 It was said (unto him): Enter paradise. He said: Would that<br />

my people knew<br />

036.027 With what (munificence) my Lord hath pardoned me and<br />

made me <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> honoured ones!<br />
