The Ruling on Seeking Intercession Through the Dead

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah reward you, can you explain to us the ruling on seeking intercession through the dead?

Answer:
It is not permissible to seek intercession. Intercession is a right belonging to Allah, and it is not sought from anyone but Allah (Mighty and Majestic). He is the One who possesses intercession, so it is sought from Allah: “O Allah, grant intercession to Your Prophet, grant intercession…”
into [the ranks of] Your righteous servants."فِي عِبَادِكَ الصَّالِحِينَ
[An-Naml 27:19]
You seek it from Allah (Mighty and Majestic), not from a dead creature. Yes.
