Asrar Rashid against abdur rahman hasan

I disagree with both Asrar Rashid and Abdur Rahman Hasan on the topic and here is why:

1. Istimdaad: Asrar Rashid believes that Istimdaad of Sayyidina Rasul-ullah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) is Mustahab (preferred) i.e. saying YA RASUL-ULLAH (Sallalaho Alaihe Wassalalm) MADAD if your car breaks down or any other issue, I D-I-S-A-G-R-E-E
2. Tawassul: Abdur Rahman Hasan believes that Tawassul of Sayyidina Rasul-ullah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) is Bid'aa (innovation) after his pasing away i.e. saying YA ALLAH I MAKE DUA TO YOU THROUGH THE RANK AND STATURE OF RASUL-ULLAH (Sallalaho Alaihe Wassalalm) if your car breaks down or any other issue, I D-I-S-A-G-R-E-E

And no I don't have 4 Hours of my life to donate to these 2.

Neither a Sooofee nor a Selfie!

Tawassul during the lifetime of Sayyidina Rasul-ullah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam):

عن عثمان بن حنيف أن رجلاً ضرير البصر أتى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ، فقال : ادع الله أن يعافيني . فقال صلى الله عليه وسلم : (إن شئت دعوت لك ، وإن شئت أخّرتُ ذاك ، فهو خير لك. [وفي رواية : (وإن شئتَ صبرتَ فهو خير لك)] ، فقال : ادعهُ. فأمره أن يتوضأ ، فيحسن وضوءه ، فيصلي ركعتين ، ويدعو بهذا الدعاء : اللهم إني أسألك ، وأتوجه إليك بنبيك محمد نبي الرحمة ، يا محمد إني توجهتُ بك إلى ربي في حاجتي هذه ، فتقضى لي ، اللهم فشفّعه فيَّ وشفّعني فيه) . قال : ففعل الرجل فبرأ
 

Narrated from ‘Uthmaan ibn Haneef that a blind man came to the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and said: Pray to Allah to heal me. The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “If you wish, I shall pray for you; and if you wish, I shall delay that for you and that will be better for you.” [According to another report, he said: “… Or if you wish, you can be patient and that will be better for you.”] He said: Pray for me (now). So he instructed him to do wudoo’ and do it well, then to pray two rak‘ahs and say this du‘aa’ (supplication): “O Allah, I ask You and I turn to You by virtue of Your Prophet Muhammad, the Prophet of mercy. O Muhammad, I turn by virtue of you to my Lord concerning this need of mine, that it might be met for me. O Allah, accept his intercession concerning me and accept my intercession concerning him.” So the man did that and he was healed. [Ahmed]

Tawassul during the lifetime of Sayyidina Rasul-ullah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) & After:

وعن عثمان بن حنيف أن رجلا كان يختلف إلى عثمان بن عفان في حاجة له فكان عثمان لا يلتفت إليه ولا ينظر في حاجته فلقي عثمان بن حنيف فشكا ذلك إليه فقال له عثمان بن حنيف : ائت الميضأة فتوضأ ثم ائت المسجد فصل فيه ركعتين ، ثم قل : اللهم إني أسألك وأتوجه إليك بنبينا محمد - صلى الله عليه وسلم - نبي الرحمة ، يا محمد إني أتوجه بك إلى ربي فيقضي لي حاجتي ، وتذكر حاجتك ، ورح إلي حين أروح معك فانطلق الرجل فصنع ما قال له ثم أتى باب عثمان فجاء البواب حتى أخذ بيده فأدخله على عثمان بن عفان فأجلسه معه على الطنفسة وقال : حاجتك ؟ فذكر حاجته فقضاها له ثم قال له : ما ذكرت حاجتك حتى كانت هذه الساعة ، وقال : ما كانت لك من حاجة فائتنا ، ثم إن الرجل خرج من عنده فلقي عثمان بن حنيف فقال له : جزاك الله خيرا ما كان ينظر في حاجتي ولا يلتفت إلي حتى كلمته في ، فقال عثمان بن حنيف : والله ما كلمته ولكن شهدت رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - وأتاه رجل ضرير فشكا إليه ذهاب بصره فقال له النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - : " أو تصبر ؟ " فقال : يا رسول الله إنه ليس لي قائد وقد شق علي ، فقال له النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - : " ائت الميضأة فتوضأ ثم صل ركعتين ثم ادع بهذه الكلمات " فقال عثمان بن حنيف : فوالله ما تفرقنا وطال بنا الحديث حتى دخل عليه الرجل كأنه لم يكن به ضرر قط

 

Tabarani, in his “al-Mu’jam al saghir,” reports a hadith from ‘Uthman ibn Hunayf that a man repeatedly visited Uthman ibn Affan (Allah be pleased with him) concerning something he needed, but Uthman paid no attention to him or his need. The man met Ibn Hunayf and complained to him about the matter – this being after the death (wisal) of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) and after the caliphates of Abu Bakr and Umar – so Uthman ibn Hunayf, who was one of the Companions who collected hadiths and was learned in the religion of Allah, said: “Go to the place of ablution and perform ablution (wudu), then come to the mosque, perform two rak’as of prayer therein, and say:

‘O Allah, I ask You and turn to You through our Prophet Muhammad, the Prophet of mercy; O Muhammad (Ya Muhammad), I turn through you to my Lord, that He may fulfill my need,’ and mention your need. Then come so that I can go with you [to the caliph Uthman].” So the man left and did as he had been told, then went to the door of Uthman ibn Affan (Allah be pleased with him), and the doorman came, took him by the hand, brought him to Uthman ibn Affan, and seated him next to him on a cushion. ‘Uthman asked, “What do you need?” and the man mentioned what he wanted, and Uthman accomplished it for him, then he said, “I hadn’t remembered your need until just now,” adding, “Whenever you need something, just mention it.” Then, the man departed, met Uthman ibn Hunayf, and said to him, “May Allah reward you! He didn’t see to my need or pay any attention to me until you spoke with him.” Uthman ibn Hunayf replied, “By Allah, I didn’t speak to him, but I have seen a blind man come to the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) and complain to him of the loss of his eyesight. The Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said, “Can you not bear it?’ and the man replied, ‘O Messenger of Allah, I do not have anyone to lead me around, and it is a great hardship for me.’ The Prophet (Allah bless him and grant him peace) told him, ‘Go to the place of ablution and perform ablution (wudu), then pray two rak’as of prayer and make the supplications.'” Ibn Hunayf went on, “By Allah, we didn’t part company or speak long before the man returned to us as if nothing had ever been wrong with him.”

1. Imam Tabarani (RA) authenticated this Hadeeth in his book
2. Imam Ibn Haj'r Haythami (RA) authenticated this Hadeeth
3. Imam Mundhiri (RA) authenticated this Hadeeth

Shaykh Al-Albani (RA) graded this narration as weak and EVEN if the Selfies take that opinion they cannot deny that many Imams of Hadeeth authenticated it.

Selfies are therefore forced to admit that this isn't Haram or Shirk (for that matter) but a Bid'ah Tawassaul (according to them).
