Brothers and sisters, friends who oppose and curious, Tawassul, seeking help from Allah asking it through the Prophet is something that has been done by the Sahabah and scholars from the four schools, as the Prophet taught them to do so.

For having Arabic as my stronger language and best, I have prepared this article for you to find out who and how scholars made tawassul. Referenced and labeled in specific.

So that was a brief discription of what tawassul is and how and who from our scholars showed us and prooved that tawassul is not worshiping other than Allah, and that it’s permissible.

If any need me to translate it for them to English, I would insh’allah, but let me know.

Translation of the above article about Tawassul

Brother and sister know that there’s no true proves that it’s unlawful to make tawassul by the Prophets, whether during their time or after their death by the claim that ‘it’s worshipping other than Allah’ because it is not a worship by just calling onto the alive or dead (such as saying Ya Muhammad) nor by asking other than Allah for help (Such as saying O Allah help me by the virtue of the Prophet) nor just by visiting the grave of the Prophet with the intention of tabarruk (As sahabah, and scholars did, and such as done by every pilgrim and visitor to al-Madinah).
For, the word worship does not apply on these doings according to the linguistics because the worship according to them is: “The worship with Khudu^ (worship with total submission)”. Azhary who is from the high linguistics said as reported from az-Zajjaj who’s most famous among the linguistics: “(Ibadah) Worship according to the language of the Arabs is the worship with piety with ultimate submission (Tathallul – At-Ta^ah with Khudu^) and similarly said by Al Fara’, and some said: “Worship is the ultimate submission (al^Ibadah Aqsa Ghayat Al Khushu^ wal Khudu^) and some said: (((“The total submission”.)))
So how could one, whom has no knowledge, say that if one makes tawassul by the Prophet Sallallahu ^alayhi wassallam, he would become a mushrik because he worshipped other than Allah?! And we have clarified that worship according to the Islamic linguistics that (^Ibadah) is the total submission, and we do not think that any of the Muslims that make tawassul by the Prophet Sallallahu ^alayhi wassallam, that they are worshipping him or that they believe that he Muhammad is Who makes harm reach to whomever He wills and benefit to whomever He wills but what we believe in them is that they believe in Allah as the true One Who makes harm reach to whomever He willed and benefit to whomever He willed (daar and nafi^) but they make tawassul by the Prophet for his great and high status to Allah, and that’s what was understood by the sahabah and the true salaf from at-tawassul for that they used to make tawassul by the Prophet sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam and the scholars after them affirmed its permissibility.
So the one who makes du^a by the virtue of the Prophet sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, that is permissible it is not shirk (partnering with Allah), so Muslim brother and sister do not look or care about those who blaspheme people because they ask Allah by the virtue of the Prophet sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam. And here are the proves on what we are saying.
Prooves for the permissibility of Tawassul with refrences from the books of the scholars and four schools with page numbers to make it easy for you:
And the proof on the permissibility of tawassul by the Prophet sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam what was mentioned In Al-Mu^jam Al-Kabir and Al-Mu^jam As-Saghir (Check these famous books Al Mu^jam Al-Kabir and As-Saghir), Imam at-Tabaraniyy related the hadith about the Prophet from the route of ^Uthman Ibn Hunayf who was in a circle with the Prophet when a blind man came to address Prophet Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam:
The blind man addressed the Prophet by saying, "O Prophet of Allah, ask Allah for me to cure my blindness." The Prophet replied by saying, "If you wish, you would be patient with your calamity, and if you wish, I will ask Allah to cure your blindness."
However, the blind man told the Prophet: "The loss of my sight is a great hardship for me, and there is no one near to guide me around."
At this moment, the Prophet ordered the man to go to the place where al-wudu' would be performed, perform alwudu', pray two rak^ah, end his salat by saying as-salamu ^alaykum, and then say the following words: (The Du^a’ contains tawassul to the Prophet with word “Ya Muhammad as well”.
This is what the hadith means: <> The blind man went and did as the PROPHET ORDERED. Shortly thereafter, he returned to the Prophet's session with his blindness cured. The references are there! At-Tabaraniyy is a fomous scholar and Al Mu^jam Al-Kabeer and As-Sagheer are known to every knowledgable Muslim! Does anyone find this not a reference! Was this hadith made up?. I will be waiting for responses specifically to this hadith and each other Hadith that follows. (Switch to Arabic windows to read the following hadith)
"Çááøåã Åäí ÃÓÃáß æÃÊæÌøå Åáíß (((ÈäÈíß ãÍãÏ))) äÈí ÇáÑÍãÉ¡ (((íÇ ãÍãÏ ))) Åäí (((ÃÊæÌå Èß ))) Åáì ÑÈí Ýí ÍÇÌÊí áÊÞÖì áí ". ÞÇá ÇáØÈÑÇäí: "æÇáÍÏíË ÕÍíÍ". ÝÝíå Ïáíá Úáì Ãä ÇáÃÚãì ÊæÓøá ÈÇáäÈí Õáì Çááøå Úáíå æÓáã Ýí ÛíÑ ÍÖÑÊå¡ Èá ÐåÈ Åáì ÇáãíÖÃÉ ÝÊæÖà æÕáì æÏÚÇ ÈÇááÝÙ ÇáÐí Úáøãå ÑÓæá Çááøå¡ Ëã ÏÎá Úáì ÇáäÈí Õáì Çááøå Úáíå æÓáã æÇáäÈí áã íÝÇÑÞ ãÌáÓå áÞæá ÑÇæí ÇáÍÏíË ÚËãÇä Èä ÍõäíÝ: "ÝæÇááøå ãÇ ÊÝÑÞäÇ æáÇ ØÇá ÈäÇ ÇáãÌáÓ ÍÊì ÏÎá ÚáíäÇ æÞÏ ÃÈÕÑ".
Then, after the death of the Prophet, and during the time of the caliphate of ^Uthman Ibn ^Affan, a man came to ^Uthman Ibn Hunayf. This man complained to ^Uthman Ibn Hunayf about a matter which he needed to be fulfilled through the caliph, but which was not being fulfilled. ^Uthman Ibn Hunayf ordered the man to go to the place where al-wudu' would be performed, perform al-wudu', perform two rak^ah, and after saying assalam to say the following words: 'O Allah, I ask You and I direct myself to You in supplication (((by our Prophet Muhammad))), the Prophet of Mercy. (((O Muhammad))), I direct myself to Allah (((by you))), so my need [specify need] would be fulfilled.
^Uthman Ibn Hunayf told him to return after doing this, and they would go together to the caliph. This man went and performed what ^Uthman Ibn Hunayf ordered him to do. However, instead of returning to ^Uthman Ibn Hunayf, he elected to go on his own to the caliph--which he did. When he reached the door of the caliph, the gateman took him by the hand to the caliph. ^UTHMAN IBN ^AFFAN sat him on a carpet next to him and asked him, "What is your need that you wanted fulfilled? I forgot all about it until just now." The man informed the caliph about his need, which he fulfilled after the making the du^a’. The caliph told him, "Whenever you have a need, come to me and I will satisfy it for you."
At-Tabaraniyy said: “And The Hadith is Sahaih” That means it has the status of accuracy. What is this called?! Isn’t this a reference? Now, one needs to, if not certain, check the saying of at-Tabaraniyy in his great books!.

Translation..

Muslim Brother and sister, here’s more proves from the Scholars of the FOUR SCHOOLS which prove that Tawassul is permissible and the millions of Muslims that do it are not mushriks as some say. The proves are fully referenced with Name of scholar, book and page ! what more would anyone need.

The Hanafy Madhhab (School – set of laws):
In the book “Al-Fatawa al-Hindiyyah Volume 1/266, the book al-Manasik, Under the title: Conclusion of visiting the grave of the Prophet Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, after he mentioned how the visit is, and manners of the visitor of the grave of the Prophet Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, he mentioned the supplications that the visitor would say, and he said: “He (The visitor) stands close to the head of the prophet Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam and he would say: “O Allah you said and your say is the truth (and he mentioned this ayah)
æóáóæú Ãóäøóåõãú ÅöÐ ÙøóáóãõæÇ ÃóäÝõÓóåõãú ÌóÇÁõæßó .." ÇáÂíÉ]
And we came to you listening to your say obedient to your command, (((making tawassul (Mustashfi^een) by your Prophet))) to you” The End. This means we make tawassul by the Prophet to you O Allah.

The Maliky Madhhab:
Sheikh Ibn al-Hajj al-malikiyy whose known for his strength in the negation of the innovations, in his book al-Madkhal, 1/259-260 he said: “(((THE TAWASSUL by him Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam))) is the place where to take off the masses of bad deeds and the weighty loads of sins, because (((the Barakah of seeking tawassul by him Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam is great to Allah))) and no sin exeeds it, for, it is the greatest of all, so let the one who visits him and who doesn’t visit him know that, and let him seek Allah Ta^ala (((by the Shafa^ah of his Prophet))) may peace and blessings be upon him. O Allah (((grant us his Shafa^ah for his high rank))) to You, Ameen o lord of the worlds, and whomever believes in the opposite of this, he would be losing (the endownment of tawassul)”

The Shafi^iy Madhhab:
Imam An-Nawawiyy said in “al-Majmoo^” 8 / 274, the book “description of pilgrimage”, under the title (((“Visiting the grave of the Messenger Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam”))) he said: “Than he (the pilgrim) returns to his first position facing the face of the Prophet of Allah Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam (((and he makes tawassul by him))) (((by his virtue and he seeks shafa^ah by him))) (Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam) to his lord” The end of the saying of An-Nawawiyy. Please check these references on the mentioned book, volume and page number. Shafa^ah (intersession) linguistically means: Seeking help from others to others. There are the Shafi^iees also teaching us how to make tawassul as well.

The Hanbaly Madhhab (Whom as claimed by the ones who say tawassul is forbidden –wahabies-, claim that he is their imam:
Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal said tawassul is lawful as Imam al-Mardawy reported from him in “al-Insaf” 2/456 Book “Salat al-Istisqa’” he said: “and from it (meaning from the benefits) it’s (((perimissible to make tawassul by the pious man))) who’s righteous on the madhhab, and it has been said: it’s (((recommended))), Imam Ahmad said to al-marwathy: “(((He makes tawassul by the Prophet))) Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam in his supplication, and he affirmed it in al-Mustaw^ib and others”. Imam Ahmad Bin Hanbal is one of our great four schools that affirmed that it is permissible to make tawassul by the Prophet and by the pious man to Allah, if those four Madhhahib said in the permissibility of tawassul, what kind of sense would it be to leave these four schools and follow only the wahaby madhhab?!! they are the ONLY sect that makes it impermissible.

These are the four schools whom clarified the issue of tawassul all as one say, they all agreed on this Islamic issue, so Muslim brother follow these great scholars, those who chose to follow the route of the Prophet Sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, and do not lose the reward and value of making tawassul by the beloved Al-Mustafa Sallallahu ^alayhi wa ^ala Alihy wa Sahbihy wa sallam and on those who follow them.
