Question:
SA,
You wrote that Imam Ahmed did tawassul with the wording of the hadith of blind man.
http://mac.abc.se/~onesr/d/twss_e.pdf
But such wording is not found in the references you mentioned. Could you clarify what form of tawassul Imam Ahmed permitted when he permitted using Prophet(s) as a means in the dua ? Is it a tawassul that seeks intercession saying “Ya Muhammed” or a dua to Allah(swt) by the status of Prophet ?
Answer:
The first, as worded in the hadith of the blind man.
Hajj Gibril Haddad
