Summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah

00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:11.859
Intercession

00:00:11.859 --> 00:00:14.859
Intercession in the Hereafter is of two types.

00:00:14.859 --> 00:00:19.859
One is exclusive to our Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

00:00:19.859 --> 00:00:27.109
The other is for all other prophets, the truthful, the martyrs, and the righteous.

00:00:27.109 --> 00:00:31.109
As for our Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:00:31.109 --> 00:00:33.109
he has several intercessions.

00:00:33.109 --> 00:00:34.109
Among them is

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,

00:00:40.109 --> 00:00:45.109
that Allah, the Almighty, may come to judge and settle matters between His servants.

00:00:45.109 --> 00:00:48.109
This is the intercession that all other prophets declined.

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.

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.

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,

00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:09.239
that Allah may lighten his torment.

00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:15.370
As for the intercession of the prophets, the truthful, the martyrs, and the righteous,

00:01:15.370 --> 00:01:19.370
it is their intercession for believers, not for disbelievers.

00:01:19.370 --> 00:01:23.370
For Allah does not permit intercession for a polytheist.

00:01:23.370 --> 00:01:29.370
It is an intercession that some disobedient believers who deserve it will not enter the Fire.

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.

00:01:35.370 --> 00:01:38.370
This intercession has two conditions.

00:01:38.370 --> 00:01:43.370
The first is Allah's permission to the intercessor for his intercession.

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?"

00:01:50.370 --> 00:01:55.459
The second is Allah's pleasure, Glorified, with the one for whom intercession is made.

00:01:55.459 --> 00:01:58.459
As indicated by His saying, the Almighty:

00:01:58.459 --> 00:02:02.459
"He knows what is before them and what is behind them."

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)

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)
