Refutating Wahabis- Hadith on intercession Tawassul of ibn Umar ra from ibn Abbas r.a
Now coming to main point and misquotation of hadith by Wahabis [pseudo salafis] The arabic of the hadith of Abbas bin Abdul Mutlib(Radhi'Allah Anho) is this: كان إذا قحطوا استسقى بالعباس بن عبد المطلب فقال اللهم إنا كنانتوسلإليك بنبينا[فتسقينا وإنانتوسلإليك بعم نبينا فاسقنا قال فيسقون , And correct translation is this: O Allah! We would use our Prophet(Peace Be Upon Him)as a means(Waseela) to Youand You then sent us rain; now we use our Prophet's uncle as a means(Waseela)to You. , mashallah, this Haditheven further proves that Waseela from alive people(awliyas) is also allowed. For Example,If a person says that I love coffee then it does not mean that he is saying that I hate tea. Similarly, Hazrat Umar's asking through Hazrat Abbas does not prove that Waseela of Prophet Mohammad(Peace Be Upon Him) is prohibited. nor does it says that any where , but let me answer you from classical imamsnow , andhow ibn Abbas (ra) asked Allah How did Ibn abbas (Ra) prayed himself , lets see , He (Ra) prayed in these words to Allah ,, اللهم إنه لم ينزل بلاء إلا بذنب , ولم يكشف إلا بتوبة , وقد توجه القوم بي إليك لمكاني من نبيك . O Allah,calamity (and trouble) comes as a result of sin and only penitence lifts this calamity, and the people, because of my relation with Your Prophet ( صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم), have offered me to Youas a means of seeking Your help, and these hands of ours, besmeared in sins, are before You and our foreheads are bowed down with penitence.

Now coming to main point and
misquotation of hadith by
Wahabis [pseudo salafis]
The arabic of the hadith of
Abbas bin Abdul Mutlib(Radhi'Allah
Anho) is this:
كان إذا قحطوا
استسقى بالعباس بن عبد
المطلب فقال اللهم إنا
كنانتوسلإليك
بنبينا[فتسقينا
وإنانتوسلإليك بعم نبينا
فاسقنا قال فيسقون
,
And correct translation is
this: O Allah! We would use our
Prophet(Peace Be Upon Him)as a
means(Waseela) to Youand
You then sent us rain; now we
use our Prophet's uncle as a
means(Waseela)to You.
,
mashallah, this Haditheven
further proves that Waseela
from alive people(awliyas) is
also allowed. For Example,If a
person says that I love coffee
then it does not mean that he is
saying that I hate tea.
Similarly, Hazrat Umar's asking
through Hazrat Abbas does not
prove that Waseela of
Prophet Mohammad(Peace
Be Upon Him) is
prohibited. nor does it says
that any where
,
but let me answer you
from classical imamsnow ,
andhow ibn Abbas (ra) asked
Allah
How did Ibn abbas (Ra)
prayed himself , lets see
,
He (Ra) prayed in these
words to Allah
,,
اللهم إنه لم ينزل بلاء إلا
بذنب , ولم يكشف إلا
بتوبة , وقد توجه القوم بي
إليك لمكاني من نبيك
.
O Allah,calamity (and trouble)
comes as a result of sin and only
penitence lifts this calamity, and
the people, because of my
relation with Your Prophet
( صلى الله عليه وآله
وسلم), have offered me to
Youas a means of seeking Your
help, and these hands of ours,
besmeared in sins, are before
You and our foreheads are
bowed down with penitence. So
give us rain

Allah o Akbar, Even Ibn Abbas
(Rah) prayed saying on account
of my relation with Your
Prophet ( صلى الله عليه
وآله وسلم ), have offered
me to You, This proves
Tawassul through Ahle bait and
Awliyas (Rah) are alive ,
Why Al Abbas (Ra) was
asked to do Dua, By Imam
Ibn Hajar Asqalani (Rah)
إن رسول الله صلى الله
عليه وسلم كان يرى
للعباس ما يرى الولد
للوالد , فاقتدوا أيها الناس
برسول الله صلى الله
عليه وسلم في عمه العباس
واتخذوه وسيلة إلى الله
,
Rasul Ullah(salallaho alaihi
wasalam) used to take Al-
Abbas(RA)like a son takes his
father. O People You should also
follow the Prophet (saw) incase
of Al-Abbas(RA) and make
him an Intercessor to Allah.
,
[Fath al Bari 2:497]
,
So this was order of Prophet
(Salehalawaalihi wasalam) to do
it , no where it says going to
Prophet's (Salehalawaalihi
wasalam) grave is haram or
shirk so they can't ask him
,
Reply you fromimam Hajar
(rah) again

Ibn Hajar `Asqalaniwrites more
about this Tawasul of Ibn e
Abbas (ra)
"The episode involving
`Abbâs makes it clear that
to seek intercession from
the virtuous, the pious and
members of the Prophet's
family is a desirable act. In
addition, this event proves the
high status of `Abbâs as well as
reveals `Umar's respect for him
and the acknowledgement of his
status."

"In the year 17 `Umar enlarged
the Prophetic mosque. That year
there was a drought in the Hijaz.
It was named the Year of
Cinders (`am al-ramada). `Umar
prayed for rain for the people
by means of al-`Abbas. Ibn Sa`d
narrated from [the Sahabi] Niyar
al-Aslami that when `Umar came
came out to pray for rain,
he came out wearing the
cloaks (burd) of the
Messenger of Allah, upon
him blessings and peace.

^^^^
Intercession through this cloak ,
Even Hadrat Umar (Ra) was
wearing Prophet's
(salehalawaalihi wasalam) cloak
at the time, , Now what is
importance of the cloak , lets
see ,
^^^^
Intercession through this cloak
,
...Here is the cloak of Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon
him). and she brought out to me
that cloak made of Persian cloth
with a hem of brocade , and its
sleeves bordered with brocade
and said: This wall Allah's
Messenger's cloak with 'A'isha
until she died, and when she
died. I got possession of it. The
Apostle of Allah (may peace
be upon him) used to wear
that, and we washed it for
the sick and sought cure
thereby.
Sahih Muslim Book 024,
Number 5149:
So this hadith proves that
Awliyas [rah] who are alive
can be used for Wasila, and
even Hadrat Ibn Abbas [ra]
asked Allah through wasila .
No where hadith says
Sahabas [ra] asked because
Prophet [salehalawaalihi
wasalam ] died.
