Question:
The ruling on seeking the removal of hardship from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
Answer:
This is major shirk (associating partners with Allah) for the one who seeks from the Messenger the alleviation of distress, or seeks from him provision, or seeks from him needs, or from the rest of the dead, a fortiori.
