DOES ALLAH LOOK LIKE HIS CREATURES? DOES HE HAVE A SHIN AND DOES THIS MEAN THAT HE HAS FOOT? DOES HE HAVE TWO RIGHT HANDS ON THE RIGHT SIDE AS NON MUSLIMS THINK?

DOES ALLAH LOOK LIKE HIS CREATURES? DOES HE HAVE A SHIN AND DOES THIS MEAN THAT HE HAS FOOT? DOES HE HAVE TWO RIGHT HANDS ON THE RIGHT SIDE AS NON MUSLIMS THINK?
GUIDANCE:HOW TO FOLLOW ISLAM ACCORDING TO QUR'AN AND HADITH, THIS IS FOR EVERYONE OF US, SPECIFICALLY THIS IS FOR NON MUSLIMS, THOSE WHO THINK THE QUR'AN CAN BE INTERPRETED ON HOW THEY WOULD WANT
It would be better for them to read the whole of Qur'an, as some verses of the Qur'an explain one another and hadith also some of them explain one another, rather than reading one verse and then trying to prove their point and also learn the Qur'an based on how prophet Muhammad (PBUH) explained before everyone else.
Often they take random statement, random numbers and random Muslims names and link it to Qur'an, hadith or seera...
We Muslims notice this kind of false information about Islam.
We Muslims rely on Islamic teaching before Arabic language as sometimes what it means in Islam, may have different meaning in Arabic language, e.g. "HAJJ" means "PURPOSE" INTENTION" BUT IN ISLAM IT MEANS "HAJJ PILGRIMAGE" VISTING THE THE KAABA/MAKKAH PERFORMING HAJJ, THE DEEDS OF HAJJ.
Sometimes if you translate Arabic into another language, the translation may not be accurate, in this case we may rely on Arabic language rather than translation.
PROPHET MUHAMMAD IS THE TEACHER OF ISLAM SINCE HE WAS SENT BY ALMIGHTY ALLAH 👇👇👇
16:44. With clear signs and Books (We sent the Messengers). And We have also sent down unto you (O Muhammad ) the reminder and the advice (the Qur'an), that you may explain clearly to men what is sent down to them, and that they may give thought.
62:2. He it is Who sent among the unlettered ones a Messenger (Muhammad ) from among themselves, reciting to them His Verses, purifying them (from the filth of disbelief and polytheism), and teaching them the Book (this Qur'an, Islamic laws and Islamic jurisprudence) and Al-Hikmah(As-Sunnah hadith: legal ways, orders, acts of worship, etc. of Prophet Muhammad ). And verily, they had been before in a clear error.
After him (prophet Muhammad PBUH) is how prophet's companions explained and understood about Islam, specifically the four leaders, as prophet told us to follow their path after him.

Chapter: Adherence To The Sunnah
Narrated Irbad ibn Sariyah:
AbdurRahman ibn Amr as-Sulami and Hujr ibn Hujr said: We came to Irbad ibn Sariyah who was among those about whom the following verse was revealed: "Nor (is there blame) on those who come to thee to be provided with mounts, and when thou saidst: "I can find no mounts for you."
We greeted him and said: We have come to see you to give healing and obtain benefit from you.
Al-Irbad said: One day the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) led us in prayer, then faced us and gave us a lengthy exhortation at which the eyes shed tears and the hearts were afraid.
A man said: Messenger of Allah! It seems as if it were a farewell exhortation, so what injunction do you give us?
He then said: I enjoin you to fear Allah, and to hear and obey even if it be an Abyssinian slave, for those of you who live after me will see great disagreement. You must then follow my sunnah and that of the rightly-guided caliphs. Hold to it and stick fast to it. Avoid novelties, for every novelty is an innovation, and every innovation is an error.
Reference : Sunan Abi Dawud 4607 In-book reference : Book 42, Hadith 12 English translation : Book 41, Hadith 4590.
Then general agreement (consensus) as Muslims agree, specifically Muslims scholars
👇👇👇
4:115. And whoever contradicts and opposes the Messenger (Muhammad ) after the right path has been shown clearly to him, and follows other than the believers' way. We shall keep him in the path he has chosen, and burn him in Hell - what an evil destination.
According to all those evidence I have mentioned recent, it's enough proof for everyone of us, that there is no need of any explanation from non Muslims about Islam based on their opinion as ALLAH had clearly refuted them (non Muslims) to explain about Islam generally!
NOTE: some non Muslims may rely on a Muslim scholar and that scholar may try his best but he might not be on the right way, he can make mistakes as we all humans make mistakes, this does not indicate it would support non Muslims claim, as many other scholars might be against of his claim. The scholar that they trying to claim that would support their claim might tell us what others say, but he has no any proof of his claim.
ALLAH clearly directed us to go back to him and his prophet
👇👇👇
4:59. O you who believe! Obey Allah and obey the Messenger (Muhammad ), and those of you (Muslims) who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger, if you believe in Allah and in the Last Day. That is better and more suitable for final determination.
Some non Muslims might claim ALLAH and his prophet are equal because ALLAH always say if you obey him (prophet Muhammad (PBUH) indeed you have obeyed ALLAH. But they are not equal, as prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is his his messenger
Here is the reason why ALLAH said; "if we obey prophet Muhammad (PBUH) indeed obey ALLAH
👇👇👇
Qur'an 53:2. Your companion (Muhammad ) has neither gone astray nor has erred.
3. Nor does he speak of (his own) desire.
4. It is only an Inspiration that is inspired.
...........................................
Conclusion: There is no chance for anyone of us to explain about Islam as long we are against Allah's teaching and his prophet and then how his companions understood about Islam and also Muslims scholars if they agree on something (general agreement/ consensus)

WHAT ALLAH SAID ABOUT THE SHIN👇👇👇
68:42. (Remember) the Day when the Shin shall be laid bare (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) and they shall be called to prostrate (to Allah), but they (hypocrites) shall not be able to do so.
THE WAY PROPHET MUHAMMAD (PBUH) EXPLAINED ABOUT THIS VESRE OF QUR'AN
👇👇👇
Narrated Abu Sa`id:
I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "Allah will bring forth the severest Hour, and then all the Believers, men and women, will prostrate themselves before Him, but there will remain those who used to prostrate in the world for showing off and for gaining good reputation. Such people will try to prostrate (on the Day of Judgment) but their back swill be as stiff as if it is one bone (a single vertebra).
Sahih Bukhari (English) reference : Vol. 6, Book 60, Hadith 441 Arabic reference : Book 65, Hadith 4919.
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The people will be thrown into the (Hell) Fire and it will say: "Are there any more (to come)?' (50.30) till Allah puts His Foot over it and it will say, 'Qati! Qati! (Enough Enough!)'"
Sahih Bukhari (English) reference : Vol. 6, Book 60, Hadith 372Arabic reference : Book 65, Hadith 4849.
NOTE: If ALLAH will put his foot over hell, this don't mean that HE has one leg!
If ALLAH will show his shin, this don't mean that HE has foot!
DOES THIS MEAN THAT ALLAH HAS FOOT AS NON MUSLIMS THINK?
This don't mean that ALLAH has one foot as prophet Muhammad (pbuh) explained in another hadith.
E.G. if someone puts his foot on something, this don't mean that he has one foot because he uses his foot!
Qur'an 28:32 ALLAH asked prophet Musa (Moses) To put his hand into the opening of his bosom so this does not mean that prophet Musa (Moses) has one hand!
HERE IS THE PROOF THAT ALLAH HAS FEET/TWO LEGS 👇👇👇
Ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: "The chair is the place of the feet...." Narrated by Ibn Khuzaymah in al-Tawhid (1/248: 154); Ibn Abi Shaybah in the Throne; (2/282), and corrected it on the condition of the two sheikhs, and approved by al-Zahabi, and classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Mukhtasar al-'Alu, 102, and Ahmad Shaker in "umdatu tafsir" 2/163).
Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: "The chair is the place of the feet and so on...." Narrated by 'Abd-Allaah Ibn Al-Imam Ahmad in Sunnah, Ibn Abi Shaybah in the Throne, 60, Ibn Jarir, Al-Bayhaqi and others. in the book of arsh (throne) (8/47) and the Albanian in the "mukhtasar al alu" . 123-124
These two hadith indicate the proof of the feet of ALLAH.
You put your hand into your pocket does this mean you have one hand?
You show people your shin, this does not mean that you have one shin!
I suggest for them to think again and again, Allah has feet not foot and no one knows how he looks like, HE does not look like his creatures at all ...
Animal have face and Jesus have face does that mean Jesus is animal and does that means he looks animal?
God Yahweh promised to walk naked on the street (Micah 1:8),, since when spirit can walk naked? He also asked prophet Isaiah to walk naked for three years
Isaiah 20:3 And the LORD said, "Even as My servant Isaiah has gone naked and barefoot three years as a sign and token against Egypt and Cush.
Do you think a normal person can ask someone to walk naked for three years?
The Bible says, Jesus and David are begotten sons of God (John 3:16) (Psalm 2:7) so God has intercourse with Mary and David's mom since they are his begotten sons!
ALLAH HAS RIGHT HAND AND LEFT HAND BUT BOTH OF HIS HANDS HAVE SAME POWER, NOT AS HIS CREATURES!
👇👇👇
Abdullah b. 'Umar reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying:
Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, would fold the Heavens on the Day of Judgment and then He would place them on His right hand and say: I am the Lord; where are the haughty and where are the proud (today)? He would fold the' earth (placing it) on the left hand and say: I am the Lord; where are the haughty and where are the proud (today)?
Reference : Sahih Muslim 2788 reference : Book 52, Hadith 7USC-MSA web (English) reference : Book 39, Hadith 6704
THIS HADITH DESTROYS NON MUSLIMS CLAIM THAT ALLAH HAS TWO HANDA ON THE RIGHT SIDE
👇👇👇
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah will take the whole earth (in His Hand) and will roll up the Heaven in His right Hand, and then He will say, "I am King! Where are the kings of the earth ? "
Reference : Sahih al-Bukhari 6519In-book reference : Book 81, Hadith 108USC -MSA web (English) reference : Vol. 8, Book 76, Hadith 526
According to this hadith I have mentioned recent, if ALLAH could have two hands on the right side then the prophet Muhammad PBUH could not say that HE will roll up the heavens in HIS right hand.
HE (prophet) never said ALLAH will roll up the heavens in HIS two right hands but he said "HE (ALLAH) will roll up the heavens in HIS hand, not hands!
BOTH ALLAH'S HANDS ARE RIGHT, THEY HAVE SAME POWER, NOT AS OURS (ONE STRONGER AND ONE WEAKER
👇👇👇
It has been narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah b. 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
Behold! the Dispensers of justice will be seated on the pulpits of light beside God, on the right side of the Merciful, Exalted and GlorioUS. Both of his hands are right. (The Dispensers of justice are) those who do justice in their rules, in matters relating to their families and in all that they undertake to do.
Reference : Sahih Muslim 1827In-book reference : Book 33, Hadith 21USC-MSA web (English) reference : Book 20, Hadith 4493
In the hadith I mentioned in sahih Bukhari and Muslim, they indicate that ALLAH has right hand and left hand and the last hadith I mentioned it indicates that ALLAH'S hands are both same power, whereas we have one stronger and one weaker.
ALLAH'S right hand and left hand, both are same, right hand is not stronger than the left hand! It is all about telling us that ALLAH is not as his creatures!
...............................................
Conclusion
ALLAH HAS FACE, FEET, SHIN AND SO ON.. BUT THIS DOES NOT MEAN HE (ALLAH LOOKS LIKE OR SIMILAR TO HIS CREATIONS!
HERE IS THE PROOF ABOUT THIS, THAT ALLAH DOES NOT LOOK LIKE HIS CREATIONS AND ONLY HIM KNOWS HOW HE LOOKS LIKE (HOW HIS FACE LOOKS LIKE, HIS SHINS, HIS HANDS AND EVERTHING ELSE THAT HE DESCRIBED HIMSELF).
112:1. Say (O Muhammad ()): "He is Allah, (the) One.
2. "Allah-us-Samad (The Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need, He neither eats nor drinks).
3. "He begets not, nor was He begotten;
4. "And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him."
42:11. The Creator of the heavens and the earth. He has made for you mates from yourselves, and for the cattle (also) mates. By this means He creates you (in the wombs). There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer.
The truth has come (arrived) and falsehood has vanished, indeed falsehood is a vanish thing.

Seeking Assistance from the Dead

Seeking Assistance from the Dead : Aqeedah of the Grave worshipping Soofis
The difference between the ‘Aqeedah of the Salaf as-Salih and the‘Aqeedah of the grave worshipping Soofis
Compiled by Abbas Raheem
Translated by Abbas Abu Yahya
The grave worshipping Soofis promote matters of Shirk and innovation by way of the media, and from those matters is Isteegatha(seeking closeness to Allaah) from the dead of the Prophets, and the righteous people. This is a refutation against their falsehood and their trickery of the worshippers by mentioning what is ambiguous from the texts of Islaam, and using weak hadeeth and narrations, and their own understanding of the authentic hadeeth other than the understanding of the Salaf as-Salih. This refutation also contains the position of the Salaf as-Salih regarding this issue, according to the‘Aqeedah of the Salaf as-Salih, and all capability is from Allaah.
Isteegatha linguistically means requesting aid and victory.
The Sharia’ definition: There is no difference with the linguistic meaning, since it means requesting help and relief from distress.
And Isteegatha is a type of Dua’(supplication), and Dua’ is worship, as has been mentioned in the hadeeth of an-Numaan bin Basheer who said that the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– said : ‘Dua’ is worship.’ Narrated by Ahmad and Tirmidhee and he said the hadeeth was hasan saheeh.
From the principles of the Sharia’ is that all worship, whether apparent or internal, is prohibited until there is an evidence from theSharia’ that makes the action permissible.
Once this is understood, then know – may Allaah have mercy upon you, and may He direct you to His obedience – that makingIsteegatha from the people is divided into two sections according to the Salaf:
The first : The Isteegatha which is permissible : and that is seeking assistance in the time of need from a living person, with that which he has the ability to help with, without having to lower oneself to that person, or with humiliation in any form, or having submission in the same way that you ask from Allaah Ta’ala.
From amongst the evidences that show the permissibility of this type of Isteegatha is:
a) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala regarding the story of Musa – alayhi as-sallam – : <<The man from his (own) party asked him for help against his foe>>
b) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<Help one another in goodness and piety, and do not help one another in sin and transgression.>>
The Second: The Isteegatha which is prohibited, is of two types:
a) Seeking assistance from living people with that which only AllaahTa’ala has the ability to help with, and there is agreement amongst the scholars, that this is prohibited.
And from amongst the evidences for this issue, is the saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<And invoke not besides Allaah, any that will neither profit you, nor hurt you…..>>
b) Making Isteegatha with the dead, from the Prophets or the righteous people.
And from the proofs of this prohibition is the following:
1) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<And if My slaves ask you about Me, then I am close, and I answer the Dua’ of the caller if he supplicates to Me. So let them obey Me and believe in Me, so that they may be led aright. >>
So ponder – may Allaah look after you – about when the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– was faced with questions, and the answer would come from Allaah Ta’ala, and Allaah Ta’ala would make the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– an intermediary to convey the answer, so Allaah would say to him : <<Say….>> meaning O Muhammad tell them. The following are examples of that:
1) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<They ask you about the new moons. Say: these are signs to mark fixed periods of time for mankind and for the pilgrimage. >> 2:186
2) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala : <<They ask you concerning fighting in the Sacred Months (i.e. 1st, 7th, 11th and 12th months of the Islaamic calendar). Say, “Fighting therein is a great (transgression) but a greater (transgression) with Allaah is to prevent mankind from following the Way of Allaah, to disbelieve in Him,>> 2:217
3) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<They ask you (O Muhammad ) concerning alcoholic drink and gambling. Say: ‘In them is a great sin, and (some) benefit for men, but the sin of them is greater than their benefit.’ >> 2:219
4) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<They ask you what they should spend. Say : whatever you spend of good>> 2 : 215
5) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<They ask you for a legal verdict. Say: ‘Allaah directs (thus) about Al­Kalâlah (those who leave neither descendants nor ascendants as heirs) >>
6) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<They ask you what is lawful for them as food. Say : lawful unto you are all kinds of halaal food. >> 5:4
7) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<They ask you about the Hour (Day of Resurrection): ‘When will be its appointed time?’ Say: ‘The knowledge thereof is with my Lord (Alone). >>
8) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<They ask you about the spoils of war. Say: the spoils of war are for Allaah and the Messenger>> 8: 1
So, the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– was an intermediary to convey the message directed to him from Allaah Ta’ala by His saying : <<Say…>>, except in the issue of Dua’. Indeed AllaahTa’ala did not make the Messenger –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– an intermediary for Dua’, but Allaah Ta’ala Himself undertakes the answering of theDua’ directly without saying: <<Say…>>
When the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– was asked: ‘O Messenger of Allaah, is our Lord close so we can have intimate discourse with Him, or is He far, so that we have to call in a loud voice?’ Then Allaah revealed: <<And if My slaves ask you about Me, then I am close, and I answer the Dua’ of the caller if he supplicates to Me.>>
Narrated by Abdullaah bin Ahmad bin Hanbal in his book ‘Kitab as-Sunnah’1/ 277 and Ibn Hibban in his book ‘ath-Thiqaat’8/436, and at-Tabari mentioned it as a reason for the revelation of the Ayaah in his Tafseer book 2/158, and Ibn Katheer in his Tafseer book 1/219, and Qurtubi in his Tafseer book 2/308, and he mentioned it as a reason for it being revealed, on the authority of Hasan al-Basari – may Allaah have mercy upon him.
And this is a divine indication that Allaah does not love that, nor is a slave in need of intermediaries or intercessors when he supplicates to his Lord Azza wa Jaal, rather he supplicates to Allaah directly and the saying of Allaah Ta’ala <<So let them obey Me >> means : that they supplicate to Me.
2) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<Say O Muhammad: I do not possess anything for myself that will benefit me nor harm me.>>
so indeed this Ayaah clearly explains that he (the Messenger of Allaah) does not control for himself that which will benefit him nor that which will harm him, so how can he possess that for anyone else.
And what confirms this point is the saying of the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– : ‘O Fatima daughter of Muhammad, O Safiya, daughter of AbdulMuttalib, O tribe of AbdulMuttalib, I do not possess anything for you from Allaah, but ask me whatever you want from my wealth.’ Narrated by Muslim.
3) The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<Say (O Muhammad): ‘Call unto those besides Him whom you pretend [to be gods like angels, Iesa (Jesus), ‘Uzair (Ezra), etc.]. They have neither the power to remove adversity from you nor even to shift it from you to another person.’ >>
Some of the Salaf said that this Ayaah was revealed about groups of people who used to supplicate to al-Azeez, the Messiah and the angels.
So if a person says that those people used to worship them (angels, prophets etc.) and not worship Allaah, but as for us then we don’t worship them, rather, we take them as intermediaries and intercessors with Allaah !!
Then the answer to them is: This statement of yours, is like the statement of the Mushrikeen at the time of the Messenger –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam.
The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<We do not worship them except that they bring us closer to Allaah>> and in spite of what they said, their claim was not accepted, nor did it benefit them, and the Messenger of Allaah fought against them.
4) A fundamental principle is that the dead are not like the living, Allaah Ta’ala says: <<The living and the dead are not the same>> fundamentally the dead do not hear the living.
Allaah Ta’ala said: <<And you do not make those in the graves to hear.>> except where the evidence shows exceptions to this principle, and here are some examples:
a) When the Messenger –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– spoke to the dead of theMushrikeen after the battle of Badr, while they were in the well before they were buried.
And about this Ibn Qudamah al-Maqdasee – may Allaah have mercy upon him – said: ‘and this was a miracle of the Prophet –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– and a matter that was specific to him, so you cannot use for anyone other than him.’ Taken from ‘Kitaab al-Mughnee’10/63.
b) The dead hear the footsteps of his companions.
c) The soul of the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– is returned to him so that the angels can convey to him the Sallam of anyone who sends Sallam upon him.
d) When the dead person hears the Sallam of the one who sendsSallam to him at his grave. This is according to those who authenticate this hadeeth.
There is no evidence to show that the dead person hears the living person who asks of him and makes a request from him, and if there is no evidence for this then the principle is that the issue remains as it is, that the dead cannot hear the living.
And the fundamental principle is that the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– is human, and the origin regarding the issue of death, is that he is like the rest of mankind. Allaah Ta’ala says: <<Indeed you will die, and indeed they will die>> except for what the evidence exempts, that the earth does not eat up his body and that his soul is returned to him in the grave to receive the Sallam of the one who sends Sallam to him, and that the actions of his Ummahare presented to him, and this is according to those who authenticate the hadeeth.
Since the dead not being able to hear the living has been established about the leader of the sons of Adam – alayhi as-Sallam – then this more readily applies to other than the Prophet –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam. If this is established that the Prophets do not hear the question of the one asking the question, then ponder over the saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<And who is more astray than one who calls (invokes) besides Allaah, such as will not answer him till the Day of Resurrection, and who are (even) unaware of their calls (invocations) to them?>>
5 – The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<So when you have finished, then stand up for Allaah’s worship. And to your Lord turn all your invocations>> and He did not say ‘Turn your invocations to the Prophets and the righteous people.’
Imaam at-Tabaree, may Allaah have mercy upon him, said, ‘The saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<And to your Lord turn all your invocations>> Allaah mentions is : O Muhammad direct your fervent desires to your Lord, and not to any one from the creation since the Mushrikeen from your people have made their fervent desires to gods and their associates. The people of Tafseer have also said similar to what we have just mentioned.
Taken from the book Tafseer at-Tabaree 30 / 237.
6 – Indeed what the Companions – radi Allaahu anhum – knew and understood is that the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– was not made as someone from who aid was sought after his death nor was he taken as an intermediary, and this is confirmed by what has been narrated by al-Bukhari 1 / 342 and others have also narrated this.
On the authority of Anas – radi Allaahu anhu – and then on the authority of Umar bin al-Khattab – radi Allaahu anhu – if there was a drought, he would request rain by asking al-Abbas bin AbdulMuttalib, and he would say : ‘O Allaah indeed we used to come closer to You (makeTawassul) with Your Prophet –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– and You would give us rain, and indeed we come closer to You with his uncle, so give us rain,’ then the rain would come down.
So, if you dear brother, dear reader, being unbiased, ponder that Umar and the senior Companions did not regard the permissibility of (Tawassul) coming closer to Allaah nor seeking assistance with the Prophet –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– after his death, compared to when he was alive, in fact in their request for rain they used to make Tawassul with the Prophet –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam, but after he passed away they did not make Tawassul with him. Indeed Umar – radi Allaahu anhu – said in his authentic, well-known and established supplication, agreed upon by the people of knowledge, which was said in the presence of theMuhajiroon and the Ansaar in the famous year of the Great Drought. When the drought became severe and the people requested rain, he said : ‘O Allaah we used to, if we suffered from a drought, we used to make Tawassul with Your Prophet, and You used to give us rain, and now we make Tawassul to You with his uncle, so give us rain , and they were given rain.’
This well known supplication was accepted by all the Companions, not one of them denied it. This is one of the clearest examples of (Ijma’Sakootee) silent agreement.
Therefore, if Tawassul with the Prophet –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– after his death was like the Tawassul during his lifetime, they would have said, why are we making Tawassul with al-Abbas while we don’t make it with the Prophet –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam, who is the best and greatest of creation with Allaah? Since not one of them said this, then this shows us that they knew Tawassul was only during the lifetime of the Prophet , and after his passing away, Tawassul is with the Dua’ of the righteous living people.
The Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– did not order any one of his Companions. if they had a need or were afflicted with a problem, that they turn to him and they seek assistance from him after his death. In fact the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– said to Ibn Abbas – radi Allaahu anhu – : ‘If you ask of anyone, then ask Allaah, and if you seek help, then seek help from Allaah.’
Narrated by at-Tirmidhee and he said the hadeeth is hasan saheeh.
And there is other evidence which shows that Isteegatha with the dead from the Prophets and the righteous people is not allowed according to Islaam.
All Praise belongs to Allaah, may His peace and blessings be upon our final Prophet Muhammad, his family, his companions and all those who follow his guidance.

HOW TO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS AS A MUSLIM.

حمزہ اسامه عمر إلى ❤Beautiful DUA'S❤
HOW TO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS AS A MUSLIM.
Christmas is an annual festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ, observed most commonly on December 25 as a religious and
cultural celebration among billions of people around the world.
We Muslims believed that Allah is one, "He has no partner and there is none co-equal or comparable unto him.... See Q112:1-4.
Therefore celebrating and rejoicing with them during the period is
1. Tantamount to disbelieving in all of the verses quoted from the Glorious Quran Furqan almusadiq.
2. The implications of saying/celebrating (Happy Xmas) is the same as saying "Happy associating partners with Allah"
Subhanallah. May Allah guide us to the right path.
Shaikhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah Said it is not permissible, it is forbidden for a Muslim to be practicing or copying the days of celebration of the religion of Christianity.
DO NOT SAY HAPPY XMAS
RATHER SAY I AM A MUSLIM AND I DON'T CELEBRATE IT.
Ya Allah SWT make it easy for us to practice your religion for your sake and the way Your Rasul S.A.W taught and practiced. Ameen
