The ruling on one who says, "Maddad, O Messenger of Allah"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on one who says that most of those who call upon the prophets and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), such as saying, "O Messenger of Allah, intercede for me," or "Maddad, O Messenger of Allah"?

Answer:
This is not permissible, and nothing is sought from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) after his death; rather, it is sought from Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Intercession is not sought from the Messenger, nor from the prophets, nor from the righteous; rather, it is sought from Allah, for it belongs to Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He). Say: "To Allah belongs all intercession." So it is sought from Allah, and you say: "O Allah, grant intercession to Your Prophet and Your righteous servants." Yes.
