6:51 - Give the warning to those in whose (hearts) is the fear that they will be brought (to judgment)<br />

before their Lord: except from Him they will have no protector nor intercessor: that they may<br />

guard (against evil). 869<br />

869 There are some men - sinners - who yet believe in Judgement; let them be warned of their personal responsibility to<br />

guard against evil; let them not rely upon protectors or intercessors before God; their sins can only be forgiven by<br />

God's own Mercy. (6.51)<br />

Fiqh-us-Sunnah<br />

Fiqh 3.107a<br />

'Abdullah ibn 'Amr reported that the Messenger of Allah, upon whom be peace, said: "The fast and the Qur'an are two<br />

intercessors for the servant of Allah on the Day of Resurrection. The fast will say: 'O Lord, I prevented him from his food and<br />

desires during the day. Let me intercede for him.' The Qur'an will say: 'I prevented him from sleeping at night. Let me<br />

intercede for him.' And their intercession will be accepted." Ahmad related this hadith with a sahih chain.<br />

Sahih Muslim Hadith<br />

Hadith 2072<br />

Abdullah ibn Abbas<br />

Narrated by<br />

His son died in Qudayd or Usfan. He said to Kurayb to see as to how many people had gathered there for his (funeral). He<br />

(Kurayb) said: So I went out and I informed him about the people who had gathered there. He (Ibn Abbas) said: Do you think<br />

they are forty? He (Kurayb) said: Yes. Ibn Abbas then said to them: Bring him (the dead body) out for I have heard Allah's<br />

Messenger (peace be upon him) as saying: If any Muslim dies and forty men who associate nothing with Allah stand over his<br />

prayer (they offer prayer over him), Allah will accept them as intercessors for him.<br />

( EQUALS, LORDS, PATRONS, HELPERS, ETC.,<br />

2:165 - Yet there are men who take (for worship) others besides Allah as equ and Patrons. al<br />

(with Allah);<br />

See Note: 167.<br />

3:80 - Nor would he instruct you to take angels and prophets for LordsWhat! Would he bid you to<br />

unbelief after ye have bowed your will (to Allah in Islam)? 415<br />

415 Jesus was a prophet, and the Holy Spirit "with which he was strengthened" was the Angel who brought the revelations<br />

to him. (3.80)<br />

6:1 - Praise be to Allah Who created the heavens and the earth and made the darkness and the<br />

light. Yet those who reject Faith hold (others) as equal with their Guardian-Lord. 834835<br />

834 Adala has various meanings: (1) to hold something as equal to something else, as here; to balance nicely; (2) to deal<br />

justly, as between one party and another, xiii.15; (3) to give compensation or reparation, or something as equivalent to<br />

something else, vi. 70; (4) to turn the balance the right way, to give a right disposition, to give a just bias or proportion,<br />

lxxxii. 7; (5) to turn the balance the wrong way, to swerve, to show bias. iv 135. (6.1)<br />

835 The argument is threefold: (1) God created everything you see and know: how can you then set up any of His own<br />

creatures as equal to Him? (2) He is your own Guardian-Lord; He cherishes and loves you: how can you be so<br />

ungrateful as to run after something else? (3) Darkness and Light are to help you to distinguish between the true from<br />

the false: how then can you confound the true God with your false ideas and superstitions? There may also be a<br />

repudiation of the Duality of old Persian theology; Light and Darkness are not conflicting Powers; they are both<br />

creatures of the one true God. (6.1)<br />

9:31 - They take their priests and their anchorites to be their lords in derogation of Allah and (they<br />

take as their Lord) Christ the son of Mary; Yet they were commanded to worship but one Allah:<br />

there is no god but He. Praise and glory to him: (far is He) from having the parents they<br />

associate (with him). 128612871288<br />

1286 Ahbar: doctors of law; priests; learned men. Cf. v. 44. where they are associated with Rabbis. Ruhban: monks,<br />

ascetics, anchorites, men who have renounced the world; where there is a celibate clergy, the term can be applied to<br />

them as well as to members of monastic orders. It is also permissible to apply the term to "saints", where they are<br />

deified or credited with divine powers, or where people pray to them as they do in the Roman Catholic Church. (9.31)<br />

1287 Priest worship, and the worship of saints and ascetics is a form of superstition to which men have been prone in all<br />

ages. The growth of Jewish superstition is shown in the Talmud, and of Christian superstition in the doctrine of papal<br />

infallibility and the worship of saints. The mere idea of a separate order of priesthood to stand between Allah and man<br />

and be the exclusive repository of Allah's secrets is derogatory to the goodness and all-pervading grace of Allah. The<br />
