Statement: My intercessor is Allah

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people, when you ask them about a matter, "Do you have an intermediary?" they say, "My intermediary is Allah." Is that sufficient or permissible?

Answer:
Allah is not to be used as an intermediary to a creation; this is not permissible. He is not to be used as an intermediary to a creation, nor is one to seek intercession through Allah against a creation. This is not permissible. Yes, Allah is greater than that. Yes, when a man said to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) the Messenger became angry and glorified then he said This is not permissible, for Allah is not to be sought as an intercessor against any of His creation.
