Help Me O Muhammad (sws)
Question asked by Saleem Ahmad.
Posted on: Wednesday, February 28, 2007 - Hits: 971
Question:
Can I say " Ya Mohammad (sws) Madad" (Help me O Mohammad (sws))
Answer:
We believe that this sentence purely implies polytheistic ideas. This is so because Islam explains in no unclear terms that the Prophet was a human being who could die (and he did die) and that God is the only source of help who can hear us wherever and whenever we call him and can respond to our requests. He is the only entity that is omnipotent and omnipresent. No other entity can be believed to have such qualities.

We should therefore not express such things because they amount to shirk (polytheism).
