Quote
Wahhabi/Deobandi said:
“[5] Imam Shah Waliullah Muhaddith Dahlawi (d.1174 AH) has at length refuted the practice of seeking aid from the dead. He writes regarding those people who visit the graves of the saints in order to present their needs,
“Tafhim (Instruction): Anyone who goes to the town of Ajmer [to the grave of Khawaja Mu’in al-Din Chishti] or to the grave of Shaykh Salar Mas’ud Ghazi (may Allah have mercy on them), or to any such place, in order to ask [them] for his needs (hajat), [his going] is indeed a sin more grievous than murder and adultery. He is not but like those who worship the creation or like those who call on Lat[2] and ‘Uzza [for help]. However, we do not [explicitly] declare disbelief [upon him] due to the absence of a text from the Lawgiver in this specific matter. Anyone who assigns life to the dead and requests his needs from them, ‘his heart is surely sinful’ (Qur’an, 2:283), and [this act] is included in His statement (Exalted is He), ‘that is iniquity’ (Qur’an, 5:3).” (Tafhimat al-Ilahiyyah, 2:45)
Shah Waliullah writes at another place, “Some of them [Mushrikin] believe that Allah alone is Noble and the Master, and He alone has influence over the world, but [they also believe that] sometimes He grants some servants the garment of highness and majesty and provides them with power and discretion (tasarruf) in certain matters of the world, just like the emperors give some of their slaves the robe of ruling and set them as rulers of some parts of their empires… And this is the illness of the majority of the Jews and Christians, and the idolaters, and some of the extremists of the hypocrites of the religion of Muhammad (Allah bless him and give him peace) in today’s time.”
(Al-Budur al-Bazighah, p.123-124)”

---------Shah Waliullah Muhaddith Dahlawi (ra)
Shah Waliullah Muhaddith Dehalvi [ra] writes in his book:
‘Al Intibah fi Salasil ul Auliaullah’
That he received the ijaza [permission] in Sattariya Silsila [tariqa]. He gives the chain of this ijaza containing names of different scholar including Ghaus Gwaliari who was the chief of Sattariya Silsila in India. Shah Waliullah writes that through this chain he received the ‘Aurad and Wazaif’ of Sattariya Silsila which includes Dua e Saifi and Jawahir Khamsa.
Dua e Saifi is a supplication which is taught to mureed’s by a Shaykh who has ijaza to recite and teach this dua. The last part of Dua e Saifi consists of Nad e Ali which has words:
“Ya
Ali , Ya Ali , Ya Abu Turab”!
Jawahir
khamsa is
a book of different dua’s (supplication)
This book also consists of Dua e Haidari, last part of Dua e Haidari consists of
“Ya
Ali , Ya Ali , Ya Abu Turab”!
Let
the Wahhabi/Deobandis take
a note of
this and declare their Wahhabi ruling
on Istighatha upon Shah
Waliullah!
Shah Waliullah and his Shaykhs recited
Dua containing words of ISTIGHATA !
Also
note, that Shah Waliullah writes
in his book:
Anfasul
Aarifeen that his father (who was also his Shaykh), Shah
Abdur Raheem [ Rh] not only used to celebrate Mawlid every
year but also did “niyaz”
on food on that occasion.
In the same book Shah
Waliullah (rh) writes that his father Shah Abdur
Raheem went to his teacher’s
grave and recited Quran. After he recited a part of a
sura from Quran, a voice came from a different
grave saying “that is not my
grave. But complete your recitation and then come here”.
So Shah Abdur Raheem recited Quran on both the graves one after the other.
Jawahir Khamsa is a collection of many dua (supplication) which is recited by the Sufi Shaykh of almost all tariqa’s in Indo/Pak subcontinent.
Jawahir Khamsa was compiled by Shaykh Ghaus Gwaliri (ra).
He wrote the foot notes and remarks to each dua in
Persian language.
It was translated into Urdu by many people. The
Urdu translation of Mirza Baig Naqshbandi is the most famous one.
One such dua in Jawahir Khamsa is ‘Dua e Saifi”.
There are many rules and conditions for reciting Dua e Saifi and one such rule is to recite NADE ALI before reciting Dua e Saifi!
As per the “nukaat’ of this dua , Nade Ali has to be recited a fixed number of time before starting Dua e Saifi. Also after completing Dua e Saifi, Nade Ali has to be recited. See the scans: here
So
any one who recites Dua
e Saifi ,
first recites Nade
e Ali!
Any
one who gets ijaza to recite complete Jawahir
Khamsa gets
permission to automatically recite Nad
e Ali ,
as Nad
e Ali is
one of the dua’s (supplication) included in Jawahir
Khamsa.
Scan
from Jawahir
Khamsa showing Nade is Ali included
in it. Scan: Here
Also
note, another dua
(supplication) which is called “Dua
e Haidari” is
an important dua
(
supplication) of Chisti-Sabri
Tariqa
As
per Sufi Shaykh of Chisti –Sabri
Tariqa , this dua was
taught to the great Wali of Allah Shaykh
Al Alam Abdul haq Rudaulwi (
radiallauhu ta’ala). He died in 836
AH.
May Allah bless the grave of this wali with the noor of His
beloved (
sal allahu alayhi wa sallam) . Ameen!
This
dua is a special dua of Chisti-sabri tariqa . But Sufi Shaykh of
other Tariqa’s also recite it.
As
per senior Sufi Shaykhs this dua should
not be recited by
normal people.
See
the scan from ‘ Anwarul
Uyoon”
which
is malfuzat of Shaykh
Shaykh Al Alam Abdul haq Rudauli (
radiallauhu ta’ala).. This
is a rare book.
See Dua e Haidari from this book:
Please note that Shah Waliullah Muhaadith Dehalvi [ra]
writes in his book:
Al
Intibah fi Salasil ul Auliaullah’
that this faqir (shah waliullah uses this for himself) received
"khirqa"
( sufi cloak) from Shaykh
Abu Tahir Kurdi[Rh]
and also the 'amal"
( special way of reciting ) mentioned in Jawahir
Khamsa.
Shah
Waliullah also received his sanad (certificate/ chain) of Hadith from Shaykh
Abu Tahir Kurdi al Makki ,
when Shah Walilullah spent time with Shaykh Abu Tahir in Makkah.
Shah
Waliullah then
passed this ijaza in hadith to his son Shah
Abdul Aziz Muhaddith Dehalvi (rh)
. Shah
Abdul Aziz passed
this ijaza to many scholars including Shah
Ishqa dehalvi
The shaykh e kul of the Wahhabis in India Nazeer Hussein Dehalvi learnt hadith sciences from Shah Ishaq Dehalvi.
Wahabis should
stop calling Shah
Walillullah as
“mushrik”
for reciting Nad
e Ali , as
this will also make Shaykh
Abu Tahir Kurdi al
Makki also as a
“mushrik”
!
Also
note, Al
Intibah fi Salasil ul Auliaullah’ is
in TWO PARTS.
In
first part Shah
Waliullah has mentioned his chain in tasawwuf ( tariqa) in different
Sufi orders
In the
second part he has
mentioned his chain in Hadith and Fiqh.
Shaykh Abu Tahir Kurdi al Makki was not a Shia nor was Shah Waliullah Muhaddith Dehalvi.
You
can check names of other scholars in the scan who used to recite
this.
All
of them were Sunni Scholars.
Nade
Ali has words like ' Ya
Ali". When
a Sunni uses these type of Istighatha words, he
does not think:
Hazrat Ali (RA) or Shaykh Abdul Qadir Gilani (rh) [ Faisala Haft masla] or Shaykh Zarooq (rh) [ Busta al muhadditheen] or Sayyid Ahmad bin Alwan (rh) [ Raddul Muhtar] can help them directly.
----
Shias have
different sects and few of them place Hussein (rd) above Ali (rd).
Others think Ali (rd) is higher than prophet. They place their
complete trust in Ali
(rd).

Deobandi
akabir Rashid Ahmed Gangohi in his Fatwa Rashidiya:
Question: As
per a (*) hadith if
someone is alone in forest and he has fear of Lion ,then one should
say YA DANIYAL (alayhis salam)help me. Is this permissible or not ?
If this type of Istighata is permissble then will it constitute
shirk?
Answer (
By Gangohi) :IF this
narration is correct then this means Allah
has placed this effect in the name of Daniyal alayhis salam.
Large Scan
(The
* hadith is
weak and note that
this was not called shirk by
^Gangohi)
This
practice of Istighatha by great scholars is a clear proof that it was
never called shirk before Ibn
Abd al wahab najdi al tamimi started
his wahabi
movement. (Here)

“
you are the one who remove my difficulty when my heart is in great

Imam Ahmed Raza Khan (rh) mentioned this in his fatwa See Scan: Here
Madarij un-Nubuwwah is a biogrpahy of Sayyedul Anmbiya (sal allahu alayhi wa sallam) by Imam Shah Abdul Haq Muhaddith Dehalvi (died 1052 AH) . It was originally written in Persian and has been translated into Urdu long back.
Shah
Abdul Haq Muhaddith(rd)
was the first to start hadith teaching and propagation in
the subcontinent.
Few other muhaddithen of the subcontinent did have ijaza in hadith
from Arab scholars before Shah Abdul Haq got it, but those scholars
did not start any madarsa to teach hadith or no systematic teaching
was srated .The great
grandfather of Shah Abdul Haq muhaddith Dehalvi migarted from Bukhara
region to India.
Shah
Abdul Haq Muhaddith Dehalvi (rd)
wrote many books on Islam , of which sharah of Mishkat which is
called "Ashatul
Lamaat" is very
famous. Originally written in Farsi it has been translated into Urdu
into 7 volume. It has good points on hanafi fiqh.
Shah
Abdul Haq Muhaddith also
wrote ' Akhbarul
Akhyar"
(which
is a biography collection of sufi shaykhs). In this book he writes
that of
all the deeds which he (Shah Abdul Haq ) considers worthy in sight of
Allah is his standing during Mawlid.
Relationship between Abdur Raheem, Shah Waliullah and Shah Abdul Aziz is that of Grandfather , Father and Grandson.
That
is Shah Abdul
Aziz (died 1238 AH)
is the son of Shah
Waliullah ( died
1176 AH) who is the son of Shah
Abur Raheem ( died
1131 AH) .

NAAD E ALI
Naade Ali:
Call Ali (RA), who is Manifestor of wonders, Thou shall surely find him helper in your difficulties; all grief and sorrow shall be removed. I submit my temporal wishes to Thee on whom I trust and always referred Thee to bestow fulfillment of temporal wishes. O! Having Thee bestowed support, O! Thee Appointed Wali, All grief and Sorrows will disappear, By Thee by Thy tremendousness O! Lord, By Thee by Thy Apostleship O! Muhammad, - Blessings of Thee on Thy Apostle & descendants, By Thee by Thy granted Power & Authority of Wail, O! Ali, O Ali, O! Ali Help!
The Ulama and Mashaa’ikh of Sha Waliullah who agreed and practiced the use of the Harf of Nida and sought assistance from the Ambiya and Awliya are as follows:
27.1 Ustaaz in Hadith of Shah Wali’ullah t, Sheikh Taahir Al-Madani t,
27.2 His Sheikh and father, Sheikh Ibra’heem Kardi t,
27.3 His Ustaaz, Sheikh Ahmed Kashshaashi t,
27.4 His Ustaaz, Sheikh Ahmed Shanawi t,
27.5 His grand Ustaaz, Sheikh Ahmed Nakhli t,
N.B. The above Scholars are also recorded in the chain of Shah Wali’ullah’s Salasil-e-Ahadith (Orders of Ahadith).
27.6 The Murshid of Shah Wali’ullah, Sheikh Mohammed Lahoori t, about whom he has attributed the title of Sheikh Mu’ammar Thaq’qa (The Blessed and Trustworthy Master). Refer to Shah Wali’ullah’s book, Al Intibah.
27.7 Sheikh Moulana Abdul Maalik t and his Murshid,
27.8 Sheikh Ba’Yazeed Thaani t and his Murshid,
27.9 Their (7 and 8) Murshid and Sheikh, Allama Sheikh Wajeehudeen Alawi t (the commentator of Hidayah and Sharha Waqaya) and his Murshid,
27.10 Taajul Aarifeen Khaja Mohammed Ghous Gawalyarit.
All the above Ulama and Awliya have recited the Naade-Ali and also the daily recital of “Ya Ali, Ya Ali.” They also issued permission to their disciples to recite the Wazeefa of Naade-Ali.
Sayyidi Jamaal bin Abdullah bin Omar Makki, in his Fatawa states:
سالت عمّن يقول في حال الشدائد يا رسول الله او يا شيخ عبدالقادر مثلا هل هو جائز شرعاً ام لا؟ اُجِبْتُ نعم! الاستغاثة بالاولياء و نداؤهم و التوسّل بهم امر مشروعٌ و شيئ مرغوبٌ الا ينكرهٌ الا مكابر و معاند و قد حرّم بركة الاولياء الكرام
I was questioned about those people, who in times of difficulty proclaim
“Ya Rasoolullah, Ya Ali, Ya Sheikh Abdul Qaadir,”
and whether these proclamations were permissible in Islam.
The great scholar replied:
“Yes, these proclamations are permissible. To call to them is permissible including using their names as Waseela. This is allowed in the light of the Shari’ah. Such an act is desirable and approved. Only the stubborn and arrogant would oppose or question this reality. These individuals are certainly unfortunate and deprived of the Barkaat (blessing) of the Awliya Allah”.

Shah Waliullah writes in (Anfas al Arifeen , page 57) that his Father’s Shaykh ( peer) ,
Syed Abdullah (rh) died and due to health problem Shah Abdur Raheem (rh) (father of Shah Waliullah) could not attend the funeral prayer. Later when he recovered from his health he went along with a man who had attended funeral of Syed Abdullah (rh).
On reaching the graveyard , this man got confused as to where is the grave of Syed Abdullah (rh) . He pointed at a grave.
Shah Abdur Rahmeen sat near that grave and started reciting Quran. Suddenly a voice came from another grave stating “ My grave is here. But do not hurry, finish your recitation their”.
Later Shah AbdurRaheem recited Quran at the grave of Syed Abdullah and his mistakes in qirat ( pronunciation) was pointed by Syed Abdullah
[scan page 56,57 Here]
Shah Waliullah writes in ( Anfas al Arifeen , page 65):
“Sometimes Khawja
Khurd (rh)
used to celeberate “Urs” of Khawja
Baqi Billah (Rd).
My Father narrates that he has seen many times that people use to
offer help to Shah
Khurd (rh).
Some one used to say” I will take the responsibility to provide
rice ( for Urs). Other used to say” I will take the responsibility
to provide mear ( for Urs) and someone else used to say “ I WILL
TAKE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF ARRANGING QAWWAL” ( for the
urs)”
Please
note : Khwaja
Khurd (rh)
is the son and khalifah
of Khawja
Baqi Billah(rd)
Khawja
Baqi Billah is
the Shaykh (
peer ) of Imam
Rabbani (rd).
This
is sufficient proof to
show that Urs was celeberated
before any division
occurred in
the subcontinent.
There are many other authentic narrations present in books
showing celebration
of Urs even before this.
Please
note an
important point that people
used to arrange Qawwal
for urs. Those
people who perform ( read) sam’a ( audition) in urs gathering are
called Qawwal. This shows that sam’a was
also a part of this
Urs.
Imam
Rabbani Mujaddid al fathani (rd)
also did not object
to sam’a and
Insha Allah this will be scanned later from his Maktoob.

Shah
Waliullah writes ( Anfas al Arifeen , page 82)
“ My father used to tell that he has seen one of the khalifah of Khawja Berang ( Rh) who was very old , but he had grace/ light on his face. This Khalifa was famous by the name “ Shaykhi”. He used to celeberate Urs ( annual gathering) and l ( that is , Shah Waliullah ) also participated in these urs when I was about six- seven years old.
[Scan page

Shah
Waliullah writes
in (
Anfas al Arifeen , page 106)
“My
Father told me that once he could not get materials to prepare food
on the occasion of Urs of prophet ( sal allahu alayhi wa sallam ) so
that he could make NIYAZ for the blessed Ruh of Prophet (
sal allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam) . Therefore he took some dried
grams and jaggery and gave its NIYAZ for the blessed
Ruh of Prophet (
sal allahu alaihi wa sallam) . On that night he saw with his eyes
that many things were presented to Prophet (
sal allahu alaihi wa sallam) and this dried grams and jaggery was
also presented to him. Prophet (
sal allahu alaihi wa sallam). Prophet was
happy to see this and He (
Sal allahu alayhi wa sallam) took some from this and also distributed
it among his companions”.
Shah
Waliullah writes
further:
“
This type of incidence is related to other people also , but the
truth is this happened with my father”.
Look
at the proud which Shah Wailullah (rh) is taking in narrating this
incidence and “they” say
Mawlid is a biddah and should not be celeberated in any form!
They also teach their followers that they
should keep away from mawlid gathering! [Scan Here]

Shah Waliullah writes about an incidence where his father was invited for a dinner. ( Anfas al Arifeen , page 112)
Shah
Waliullah writes:
“
Suddenly a woman arrived with sweet dish in a plate and said that she
had made a vow
(
mannat) that whenever her husband returns home , she will cook sweet
dish and distribute it among the poor ( Fuqra) present at the shrine
of Makhdum
Allah diya (

present at the shrine, even at this time of the night, so that she
could fulfil her Nazr.

making Vow and distributing food at the shrine of Muslim saints and
scholars was accepted by Shah
Abdul Raheem .

Fatwa Rashidiya
Annual “urs’ gathering!
Quote Question:
The
annual “urs”
of Mawlana
Fazalur rehman sahib (Rh)
is celeberated on a fixed date at Ganj Muradabad and the date is
informed to the general public through posters and the mureeds (
disciple) of the Silsila are informed through letters . On the
appointed day people gather and recite Quran. The reward of reciting
the quran is sent to dead muslims ( Ithal e thawab) . Qawwali,singing
sama ( audition) and other”absurd(khurafat) things are absent.
Kindly answer whether this type of gathering is allowed in shariah or
not?
If
it is not allowed as per shariah, then can we have Imam of the masjid
who has aqidah that these types of gathering is permissible? And
those who curse the companions of the prophet(mardood wa ma’ loon)
and those who say that Prophet had ( was given) knowledge of the
unseen ( ilm e ghayb) , inspite of so many proof from quran and
hadith that prophet did not have knowledge of the unseen ( Ilm e
ghayb),…which type of sinner do they become having these type of
belief ?And will these type of belief take a person out side the fold
of [Ahlus] sunnah Jamat?
Are
those type of “urs gathering”permissible in which people have
Ijtima ( speech/ teachings) but no qawwali,no music and no females
are present?
Answer
Whether
someone makes it compulsory (Iltizam) to attend Urs or not ( keeps it
optional only) “urs
gathering” is a biddah and not permissible.
Doing
Ijtema at grave on any fixed date is a sin, irrespective
whether the Ijtema has other things or not . (Ijtema, qawwali ,sama
etc).If any one makes Takfir upon any of the sahaba ( companion of
the prophet) he is ma’loon ( cursed) and
it is haram ( forbidden) to appoint this man as an Imam of the
Masjid and
he will not go outside the fold of [Ahlus] Sunnah Jamaat due to his
this major
sin (
kabira gunah).
Dear Mohammed Yahya, assalam alaykum. I have 2-3 magazines about Ilm e ghayb and book ‘Barhane katiya” ( by hazrat Khaleel ahmed saharanpuri) also deals with this issue of Ilme Ghayb and the issue of celeberating Urs. Wassalam."

"To seek the help of any deceased and pray to him is Shirk.
It is not permissible to address any deceased by saying 'Yaa Shaykh Madad', 'Yaa Shaykh Raza Khan.', etc. If a Muslim does that, he is out of the fold of Islam, his Nikah will be broken. If he does not renew his Imaan and Nikah, his relationship with his wife will be Haraam. and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

"As for ‘Yaa Rasoolullah Madad’ which mean ‘O Rasulullah, help us’ with the belief that only Allah can help, there is some inconsistency with the statement and one’s condition if one believes on Allah can help, why should he ask Rasulullah [sallallaahu alayhi wasallam] ‘s help?

Fatwa on Sunnipath :
Calling on Other than Allah?
Question:
I
see on some internet forums, people writing such things as "Ya
Ali I invoke thee" - I wanted to know is it allowed to say
such things? Does this not smack of shirk?
Answer:
There
are a few issues:
a) It is a fundamental belief of Muslims
that only Allah benefits or harms; that only Allah gives and
takes;
b) It is also a fundamental belief of Muslims that Allah
has created means for humans to take;
c) However, the
relationship between these created means and their effects is only
normative: it is Allah who creates the means, and Allah who creates
the results.
This is why Shaykh Abd al-Rahman al-Shaghouri (Allah have mercy on him), the great spiritual guide and master of the sciences of faith (aqida) from Damascus, explained,�Taking means is necessary, and denying that they are effective is necessary. Whoever negates means is denying the Wisdom of Allah, and whoever relies upon means is associating others with Allah.�
This is the understanding upon which Muslims �call upon other than Allah.�
It is no different from taking medicine when sick, or going to a mechanic when your car is giving trouble:
if you think that the medicine itself creates the healing, or that the mechanic is the one himself creates the fixing, then you have serious innovation in belief.
The sound understanding is that Allah creates the healing when you use the medicine, and He creates the fixing when the mechanic does their job: we affirm these means, but also affirm that it is Allah who created both the means and the resultant effect.This is pure affirmation of Divine Oneness. How can it �smack of shirk.�
