00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,859
Intercession

3
00:00:11,859 --> 00:00:14,859
Intercession in the Hereafter is of two types.

4
00:00:14,859 --> 00:00:19,859
One is exclusive to our Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

5
00:00:19,859 --> 00:00:27,109
The other is for all other prophets, the truthful, the martyrs, and the righteous.

6
00:00:27,109 --> 00:00:31,109
As for our Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

7
00:00:31,109 --> 00:00:33,109
he has several intercessions.

8
00:00:33,109 --> 00:00:34,109
Among them is

9
00:00:34,109 --> 00:00:40,109
his great intercession, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, for all people on the Day of Resurrection,

10
00:00:40,109 --> 00:00:45,109
that Allah, the Almighty, may come to judge and settle matters between His servants.

11
00:00:45,109 --> 00:00:48,109
This is the intercession that all other prophets declined.

12
00:00:48,109 --> 00:00:55,109
It is the Praiseworthy Station that Allah promised His Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

13
00:00:55,109 --> 00:01:01,240
And among them is his intercession, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, for the people of Paradise to enter it.

14
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:06,239
And among them is his intercession, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, for his uncle Abu Talib,

15
00:01:06,239 --> 00:01:09,239
that Allah may lighten his torment.

16
00:01:09,239 --> 00:01:15,370
As for the intercession of the prophets, the truthful, the martyrs, and the righteous,

17
00:01:15,370 --> 00:01:19,370
it is their intercession for believers, not for disbelievers.

18
00:01:19,370 --> 00:01:23,370
For Allah does not permit intercession for a polytheist.

19
00:01:23,370 --> 00:01:29,370
It is an intercession that some disobedient believers who deserve it will not enter the Fire.

20
00:01:29,370 --> 00:01:35,370
And an intercession that disobedient believers who have entered the Fire will be brought out of it.

21
00:01:35,370 --> 00:01:38,370
This intercession has two conditions.

22
00:01:38,370 --> 00:01:43,370
The first is Allah's permission to the intercessor for his intercession.

23
00:01:43,370 --> 00:01:50,370
As Allah, the Almighty, says: "Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission?"

24
00:01:50,370 --> 00:01:55,459
The second is Allah's pleasure, Glorified, with the one for whom intercession is made.

25
00:01:55,459 --> 00:01:58,459
As indicated by His saying, the Almighty:

26
00:01:58,459 --> 00:02:02,459
"He knows what is before them and what is behind them."

27
00:02:02,459 --> 00:02:05,459
“He knoweth what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot intercede except for him whom He accepteth, and they quake for awe of Him.” (21:28)

28
00:02:05,459 --> 00:02:09,460
“He knoweth what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot intercede except for him whom He accepteth, and they quake for awe of Him.” (21:28)
