Is it permissible to seek blessing from other than Allah if one knows that the one from whom blessing is sought does not grant blessing except from Allah?

Question:
He asks: Is it permissible to seek blessing from other than Allah if the intention of the one seeking it is that the one from whom it is sought does not grant the blessing, but rather he asks Allah for it?

Answer:
This is a twist, this is a twist in the speech. Blessing is sought from Allah alone, from Allah alone. "O Allah, bless me in such and such, and bless me in my hearing, my sight, and my children." You seek blessing from Allah, you do not seek it from anyone ever, neither by interceding with Allah to seek blessing nor by any other means. Call upon Allah directly without an intermediary. Yes.
