Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The hadith of the blind manJami` at-Tirmidhi 3578Sahih (Darussalam) You mentioned that the intended meaning of seeking nearness (tawassul) here is the supplication of the Prophet, not his person. The question is: Is it permissible to seek nearness to Allah through the supplication of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) now, after his death, by saying, "I ask You and turn to You by Your Prophet Muhammad"?
Answer:
Glory be to Allah, our entire discussion and lesson have gone. We tell you: It is not permissible to ask the Messenger for supplication after his death. It is not permissible to ask the Messenger for supplication after his death, because the Companions did not ask him for it after his death. Yes.
