Intercession's exception ]

The Intercession

One of the most famous Islamic scientists, stated that the prophet Mohamed is the refuge of the Moslems, the day of resurrection, and that`s the truth of the intercession: allege a refuge or a human intercessor in stead of God to assure their destiny the Day of Resurrection.

God proposes to his servants an experiment which proves the lie of the invented intercession idea, When a man exhibits the Wrath of ALLAH during this life he forgets his invented intercessors and call God alone for help, that occurs exactly in beyond, where a man forgets his invented intercessors and call Allah.

“Say: think ye to yourselves, if there come upon you the Wrath of ALLAH, or the Hour (that ye dread), would ye then call upon other than ALLAH? (reply) if ye are truthfuln. Nay, on Him would ye call, and if it be His will, he would remove (the distress) which occasioned your call upon Him, and ye would forget (the false gods) which ye join with Him.”Alanaam40-41

A famous tale refered to the Prophet Mohamed quote that the Day of Judgment people call the prophets for help, but they all apologize, only the Messenger Mohamed accepts the call and God gives him the Intercession`s permission, the Messenger Mohamed will acquit himself from these words which contradicted completely with the Verse above. Alanaam 40-41

Some Moslems, request from God the intercession`s permission of the Messenger Mohamed believing that this is the solution of the Salvation the Day of Judgement But God informs us the correct call of believings:

“Those who say, Our Lord! avert from us the Wrath of Hell, for its Wrath is indeed an affliction grievous. Evil indeed is it as an abode, and as a place to rest in;” Alfurqan 65-66

Believings ask safety directly to God without mediation.

Koran discussed largely the intercession`s idea, nearly 23 times where the idea is absolutely denied, among which 8 times denied under some exceptions.

“who is there can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth?”Albaquara 255

Moslems, believe that This Verse is a sufficient evidence for the intercession, but according to the same Verse and which precedes it we can find that:

the preceding one denies absolutely the intercession even for believing:

O ye who believe! spend out of (the bounties) we have provided for you, before the day comes when no bargaining (will avail), nor friendship nor intercession. Those who reject Faith they are the wrong doers. Albaqara 254

“who is there can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth?”

These words are succeeded and preceded by some divine qualifications meaning that Allah present all the time, observes continuously his servents on the contrary of invented intercessors which are absent, died, sleeps, do not possess anything neither in the skies nor on the grounds, they don`t know neither last nor future, and they couldn`t know about his science (like servants`s deeds) except only what He wants.

“ALLAH! there is no god but He, the Living, the Self subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him nor sleep. His are all things in the heavens and on earth. who is there can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth? He knoweth what (appeareth to His creatures as) before or after or behind them. Nor shall they compass aught of His knowledge except as He willeth. His throne doth extend over the heavens and the earth, and He feeleth no fatigue in guarding and preserving them for He is the Most High, the Supreme (in glory.” Albaqara255

having similar qualifications The Lord doesn`t need a median of his servants, which directs us towards another meaning of " except as He permitteth "

For which need it must be intercessors besides Allah?

For more knowledge? Or more mercy than Allah?

" except as He permitteth " never declares that this permission will take place, but that we must have a preceding engagement from God before being deceived, believing this alleged idea, the following Verse indicates the same meaning:

“And We shall drive the sinners to hell, like thirsty cattle driven down to water, one shall have the power Of intercession, except as has received  promise from (ALLAH) Most Gracious.”Maryam 86-87

We remark some mockery in " except as has received  promise from (ALLAH)", because it is sure that the koran has never announced this engagement (promise).

Absolute deny of  intercession

the deny concerns not only those They reject faith, and Pagans but also believing and human being generaly

1. Human being in general

      " Then guard yourselves against a day When one soul shall not avail another Nor shall intercession be accepted for her, Nor shall compensation be taken from her, Nor shall anyone be helped (from outside). Albakara 48 123

 

      Leave alone those who take their religion to be mere play and amusement, and are deceived by the life of this world. But proclaim (to them) this (truth): that every soul delivers itself to ruin by its own acts; it will find for itself no protector or intercessor except ALLAH: if it offered every ransom, (or reparation), none will be accepted; such is (the end of) those who deliver themselves to ruin by their own acts: they will have for drink (only) boiling water, and for punishment, one most grievous; or they persisted in rejecting ALLAH. Alanaam 70

The Verse orders the Messenger Mohamed to neglect those which take their religion for play and recreation, and to admonish by the Quoran, that any soul will have neither combined nor intercessor apart from Allah,

2. Believing

O ye who believe! spend out of (the bounties) we have provided for you, before the day comes when no bargaining (will avail), nor friendship nor intercession. Those who reject Faith they are the wrong doers. Albaqara 254

3.   Those in whose (hearts) is the fear that they will be brought (to Judgment)

“Give this warning to those in whose (hearts) is the fear that they will be brought (to Judgment) before their Lord: except for Him they will have neither protector nor intercessor; that they may guard (against evil”

Al anaam 51

4.   Evils, and the whole hosts of Iblis

Then they will be thrown headlong into the (Fire) they and those straying in Evil, And the whole hosts of Iblis together.---- Now, then, we have none to intercede (for us),  Nor a single friend to feel (for us).

Alshuaraa 94-100

5.   The wrong doers

“Warn them of the Day that is (ever) drawing near, when the Hearts will (come) right up to the Throats to choke (them); no intimate friend nor intercessor will the wrong doers have, who could be listened to.

Ghafir 18

This Verse deny the widespread idea, saying that the unjust ones will go to the Paradise after some torment in hell.

6. Those which deny the day of Judgment

“And we used to deny the Day of Judgment, Until there came to us (the Hour) that is certain.Then will no intercession of (any) intercessors profit them.”

Almuddassir46- 48

7.   Who disregarded The Holly Koran

“Do they just wait for the final fulfilment of the event? On the day the event is finally fulfilled those who disregarded it before will say": The Messengers of our Lord did indeed bring true (tidings). Have we no intercessors now to intercede on our behalf? Or could we be sent back? Then should we behave differently from our behavior in the past". In fact they will have lost their souls, and the things they invented will leave them in the lurch. alaraf 53

Noting that the word “intercessors” is sometimes followed by the word ”beside Allah” indicating that intercessor is an alleged partner to Allah, some Verses ensure the same meaning:

Intercessor is an alleged partner to Allah  

 

 

Al- Rum 13

 

 

 

We can deduce from the preceding Verses that the humanity has taken associates with Allah to ask for their intercession even without admitting it.
