He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if one says the name of Allah and then mentions the wali, as the people of the graves do, is the slaughter valid?

Answer:
No, if the wali is mentioned, it is
and that which has been dedicated to other than Allahوَمَا أُهِلَّ بِهِ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:173]
. So if he says "In the name of Allah" while intending it for the grave, is it permissible? If he intends it for the grave and to draw near to the dead, it is not permissible, even if he says "In the name of Allah" over it. Because it is
and that which has been dedicated to other than Allahوَمَا أُهِلَّ بِهِ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:173]
. Yes.
