Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: Some scholars have added a third condition to the conditions of intercession, which is that He, Glorified and Exalted is He, is also pleased with the intercessor. Is there evidence for this condition?
Answer:
We have not heard of this. What is in the Qur'an is what you heard:[Al-Baqarah 2:255] [Al-Anbya 21:28] He is pleased [An-Najm 53:26] This is what is in the Qur'an, so anyone who adds something from his own opinion is rejected. Yes.

Answer:
We have not heard of this. What is in the Qur'an is what you heard:
Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission?
مَن ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِندَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِand they cannot intercede except on behalf of
وَلَا يَشْفَعُونَ إِلَّا لِمَنِexcept [only] after Allah has permitted [it] to whom He wills and approves.
إِلَّا مِن بَعْدِ أَن يَأْذَنَ اللَّهُ لِمَن يَشَاءُ وَيَرْضَىٰ
