(The Intercession - B: Types).
Types of intercession (shafaa’ah)
Intercession means:
Mediating for
someone else to gain some benefit or ward off some harm.
It
is of two types:
The
first type:
intercession
that will take place in the Hereafter, on the Day of Resurrection.
The second type: intercession concerning matters of this
world.
(A) With regard to the intercession that will take place in the Hereafter, it is of two types:
The first type: Exclusive intercession, which will be granted only to the Messenger (r), and no one else in creation will have a share in that with him.
This is of various
kinds:
1) The
greater intercession. This is the station of praise
and glory (al-maqaam al-mahmood) which Allah has promised to him.
2) Intercession
for the people of Paradise to enter Paradise.
3) The
intercession of the Messenger (r) for his uncle Abu
Talib.
4)
His intercession so that some
people of his ummah will enter Paradise without being brought to account.
The second type: General intercession. This will be granted to the Messenger (r) and others – angels, Prophets and righteous people – will share in it as Allah wills.
This is of various kinds:
1
– Intercession for some people who have entered Hell, that they might be
brought forth from it.
2
– Intercession for people who deserve Hell, that they may not enter it.
3
– Intercession for some of the believers who deserve Paradise, that they may be
raised in status in
Conditions of this intercession:
The evidences indicates that
intercession in the Hereafter will only happen if the following conditions are
met:
1) Allah
must approve of the one for whom intercession is made.
2) Allah must give
permission to the intercessor to intercede.
3) Allah must approve of
the intercessor.
(B) The second type of intercession is that which has to do with matters of this world.
This is of two types:
1️⃣ – That which is within a person’s ability to do something.
This is permissible, subject to two conditions:
1) That it
should have to do with a permissible thing.
2) In his
heart, the person must depend on Allah alone to realize his aim and ward off
what is disliked.
If either of these two conditions is not met, then the intercession is not allowed.
2️⃣ – That which is not within a person’s
ability to do something, such as seeking intercession from the dead and
occupants of graves, or from a living person who is absent, believing that he
is able to hear and meet one’s need.
