Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Is the intercession of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for his Ummah only, or does he intercede for the previous nations?

Answer:
The great intercession is general for believers and disbelievers, in that Allah relieves them from the gathering to the reckoning. This is general for believers and disbelievers. As for the remaining intercessions, they are specific to the believers.
