 وَأَقُولُوا فِي القُرْآنِ مَا جَاءَتْ بِهِ اَيَاتُوهُ فَهُوَ الْكَارِيمُ الْمُنْزَالُونَ وَأَقُولُوا قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُوهُ وَالْمُصْطَافَ الْهَاديِ وَلَا أَتْ أَوَّالُونَ الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على عبد الله ورسوله نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته ورحمة الله وبركاته مرحباً في هذا السهل من أجل الله وقال ربكم ودعوني أستجب لكم ومسجدكم ورحمة الله وبركاتكم وقالوا بي ونجدكم بأسفل دعا كيف يجعل دعا ومعرفة بعض المسجد من المدعون ونحن نأتي إلى المشكلة التوصل التوصل is to find a means of to find a wasila a means of nearness a means of closeness to Allah in other words to find an action or something you can say or do that will bring this دعا nearer to Allah سبحانه وتعالى and will increase the likelihood of this دعا being accepted and التوصل can be divided into two types a توصل which is مشروع which is permitted and legislated and a توصل which is forbidden which is innovated and which is prohibited in the religion of islam so we're going to start by talking about the توصل which is permitted and we're going to mention a number of types and we're going to mention evidences for each one إن شاء الله وتعالى so the first type of توصل it is the greatest of the types of توصل the greatest thing you can give to boost your دعا to bring your دعا nearer to Allah سبحانه وتعالى to find a means of nearness to Allah is a توصل إلى الله بأسماه الحسنة الوارد في كتابه وصنة رسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم to make توصل with Allah's perfect and beautiful names الله عز وجل سد ولله الأسماء الحسنة فدعوه بها وذر الذين يلحدون في أسمائه سيجزون ما كانوا يعملون and this is in صورة العراف ayah number one hundred and eighty الله عز وجل سد قل دعو الله أو ادعو الرحمن أيما تدعو فله الأسماء الحسنة صورة الإسراء ayah number one hundred and ten يجب أن يدعوه بالنسبة to his names they will be recompensed for what they used to do say call upon Allah or call upon الرحمن which ever you call upon then Allah has the best of names the most beautiful and the most perfect of names can we give an example of that from the Quran and I'm going to give you a قاعدة a beautiful principle إن شاء الله تعالى that you can understand توصل of the permitted types of توصل have examples in the Book of Allah or in the Sunnah of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم there are clear examples from the Quran for each of the permissible types of توصل example you can give other dua where you can show it perfectly I'm going to give you two examples the first example and it's the easiest الحمد لله رب العالمين الرحمن الرحيم مالك يوم الدين إياك نعبدوا إياك نستعين إهدنا الصراطة المستقيم صراطة الذين هنعمت عليهم غير المضوب عليهم ولا بضالين أهمين دعاء صورة الفاتحة دعاء إن this دعاء how do you get near how do you bring your dua near to Allah you praise him for being the رب العالمين الرحمن الرحيم مالك يوم الدين use his names to come near to him to bring your dua near to Allah and then إياك نعبدوا إياك نستعين which is both coming near to Allah by your worship of him which we're going to talk about later in a different category and then إهدنا الصراطة المستقيم so you bring your dua nearer to Allah you find a means of nearness to Allah through his names and his attributes let's give another example إبراهيم when he was building the Kaaba and إسماعيل وإذ يرفع إبراهيم قواعد من البيت وإسماعيل ربنا تقبل مننا إنك أنت السميع العلم ربنا وجعلنا مسلمين لك ومن ذريةنا أمة مسلمة لك وآرنا مناسكنا وتوب علينا إنك أنت التواب الرحيم until the end of these ayat أحد هذه الآيات تفتحها بشكل جميل إبراهيم when he was raising the foundations of the house in إسماعيل our Lord accept it from us you are السميع العلم or our Lord make us Muslims for you and from our offspring and show us how to perform our rites of pilgrimage and accept our repentance you are التواب رحيم and a simple example someone says يا غفور إغفر لي or the most forgiving forgive me يا رحيم إرحمي all most merciful have mercy on me and so on using Allah's names to get near to him and to bring your dua to find a means of nearness to bring your dua nearer to Allah سبحانه وتعالى the second التوسل إلى الله بالعمال الصالحة يجب أن نعود to Allah through righteous actions this is also found in صورة الفاتحة it's also found in صورة الفاتحة إياك نعبد وإياك نستعين إهدين الصراط المستخدم you alone we worship you alone we ask for help guide us to the straight path and another example of this from صورة آل إمران the ayah is number 16 الله عز وجل said الذين يقولون ربنا إننا آمننا ثغفر لنا ذنوبنا وقين عذاب النار those who say our Lord we have believed so forgive us our sins and protect us or save us from the punishment of the fire so here what's the link here where's the link the link is simple the person mentions their إيمان and asks Allah for something they mention their إيمان they ask Allah in صورة الفاتحة you mention your إبادة your worship of Allah your إستعانة you're seeking help from Allah then you ask Allah for something and mentioning you know the worship and the seeking help implies asking Allah as well but just for now we just want to understand the idea that you're saying oh Allah I worship you and I ask you alone for help so guide me to the straight path this is the second type the third type is التوسل إلى الله تعالى بدعاء الصالحين الأحياء بأن يطلب المسلم من أخيه الحيء الحاضر أن يدعو الله له the third type is and this is important to get the conditions right for this is that you seek a means of nearness to Allah by asking a righteous living person who is present with you to make dua for you to Allah for you for example your brother who is present beside you you say to that person that make dua for me ask Allah for me ask Allah to make it easy for me and this is permissible there are examples of this in the sunnah of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم an example of this is in Sahih Al-Bukhari from the hadith of Anas رضي الله عنه that Wendy there was a drought عمر بالخطاب he used to ask to make dua for rain فقال اللهم إنا كنا نتوسل إليك بنبينا صلى الله عليه وسلم فتسقين وإنا نتوسل إليك بعمن بنبينا فسقين قال فيسقو he said we used to seek nearness to you by asking the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم to make dua for rain so you would give us rain and now we seek nearness to you by asking the uncle of your Prophet to make dua for rain so give us rain and the rain would come it's really important to note here that عمر was making dua to Allah he wasn't asking العباس for rain he was asking Allah for rain and he wasn't asking Allah by the honor of العباس he wasn't saying Oh Allah أسألوك بجاه العباس by the honor of العباس but he was saying Oh Allah I ask you by the dua that Allah is making you know we've asked him to make dua on our behalf so make the rain come and then the rain and then the rain would come there are some other examples outside of these three major categories which we can also give and we can expand upon one is التوصل mentioning the blessings of Allah عز وجل mentioning Allah's blessings an example of this is the statement of Allah عز وجل رب قد آتيتني من الملك وعلمتني من تقويل الأحاديث ثاطر السماوات والأرض أنت ولي في الدنيا والآخرة توفني مسلما والحقني بالصالحين Oh my Lord this is the dua of Yousuf I mentioned it to us at the end of Surah Yousuf My Lord You have given me from the Kingdom and You have taught me the interpretation of dreams ثاطر السماوات والأرض originator of the heavens and the earth You are my protector in the دنيا and the آخرة and after mentioning the blessings of Allah and mentioning that Allah عز وجل is the creator of the heavens and the earth the originator of the heavens and the earth then توفني مسلما cause me to die as a Muslim والحقني بالصالحين and make me join with join together or join me together with the righteous التوصل by mentioning your state and your need وأيوب إذ نادة ربه أني مسني الضر وانت أرحم الراحمي أيوب when he called upon his Lord that I have been touched by an affliction that you are the most merciful of those who show mercy so he mentioned his need and his desperation and then he made dua and التوصل by mentioning the outcome that you you hope for like the dua of إبراهيم عليه السلام ربنا إني أسكنتو من ذرية بواد غير ذي زرعين عند بيتك المحرم ربنا ليقيموا الصلاة فجعل أفئدة من الناس تهوي إليهم ورزقهم من الثماراتي لعلهم يشكوروا my Lord I have left my family or my offspring to live in a valley without vegetation near to your sacred house my Lord so that they can perform the prayer it's the first thing so make a group of people come to them and provide them of the fruits so that they may show gratitude إبراهيم في هذا الحق يتعلم about two things Number one, his hope that his family will establish the prayer and number two his hope that they will be grateful and based on these outcomes that he hopes for he asks Allah، سبحانه وتعالى to send a group of people to them and to provide them of the fruits so this is also a kind of taught us so these times can be included in the other kinds you can categorize it in different ways but it's worth mentioning it separately because you might find a situation like that where you want something because of an outcome so you say oh Allah enrich me so that I can give charity so there is no harm in this either and it has examples from the book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم just as there are permissible and legislated ways of getting your دعانية to Allah هنا are also ways that people do which are not permitted these are many many types and I'm just going to highlight a few of the most common one of the most common is asking Allah by the honor of his creation like saying oh Allah I ask you by the honor of your prophet or I ask you by the honor of the Ka'bah this is disrespectful it's a kind of it's a kind of transgression it's disrespectful to ask Allah as though one of his creation has a right over him as though one of his creation has a something over Allah that they can compel Allah to do it like this is disrespectful to Allah and there's no examples of it in the Sunnah of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم اللهما except what people misunderstand like the hadith of anus regarding عمر and العباس he didn't say that I ask you oh Allah by the honor of it عباس by ask you by the دعاء that we've asked عباس to make and that is by asking Allah through a righteous deed or asking Allah through a person who is alive and present and it's not asking them to make دعاء on your behalf it's not an example of asking Allah by the honor of someone and this is something which is not from the Sunnah it's an innovated kind of توصل there is also no doubt توصل شركي there is توصل which falls into شرك and the examples of that توصل can include people who go to ask people in the graves to the dead people and they go to them and they say to them that oh so and so I call upon you and I ask you to take my دعاء to Allah and at the end of the day that's exactly what قريش used to do ما نعبدهم إلا ليقربون إلى الله زلفا we only worship them to make us near to Allah in position and they said إنما هولا يشوفعون عند الله these are only our intercessors in the sight of Allah so توصل can be a serious matter people going against the Sunnah in this they can fall into innovations like asking by the honor of the creation and they can also fall into شرك which is an example of asking other than الله or calling upon other than الله even if the final goal is for it to reach الله but the action is to make دعاء to other than الله and when you ask them why you're making دعاء to other than الله they say we are only making that دعاء as a as a وسيلة we don't believe that the one we're making دعاء to can help us besides الله but we're only making دعاء to that one as a وسيلة as a way to reach الله and this is exactly the belief of قريش the people whom the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم thought and about whom الله عز و جل revealed قليا أيها الكافيرون لا عبدما تعبدون say oh disbelievers i do not worship what you worship they used to call upon other than الله make دعاء to other than الله whether it be stones or trees or stars or people or the dead of the prophets the angels they used to make دعاء to them and when you ask them why you make دعاء to these people when you know they don't benefit you they would say ما نعبدهم إلا ليقربون إلى الله صلفة we only worship them to make us near to الله in positions it's very important to bear that in mind that's what الله made easy for me to mention and الله عز و جل نوز بيست والصرات والسلام على نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه اجمعي السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته how can you do a two second action right now that will give you a share of the reward of
